El Guapo Posted October 1, 2015 Posted October 1, 2015 I met this guy at the mall...and told him that I want 375 Yellow Castle. He just brought it to me, for free. All I had to do was be "good" for the year. What a joke. I totally was bad a couple of times. I Miss that guy...what a sucker, totally ripped him for some other free stuff too. Loser. 4 Quote
d4m60d Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 Today I made my best deal on German ebay-kleinanzeigen. Don't know if the US guys knows this platform. Just bought one 76042 Helicarrier sealed and MISB for just 250€. Our German retail price is about 349€. So I saved truly 99€ on an UCS model which is OOS at this time know!!! That's freakin good I think.Now I'm thinking of should I build it or should I wait and sell it with an very nice profit at christmas. Or should I wait until it's done and EOL? Maybe this won't be long?!Greetings from Germany,Chris 1 Quote
jaylay Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 $500 on a dudes personal collection. Mostly everything was new without box. Looks like he just threw away the boxes and kept the sets unbuilt unopened. Had old castle, samurai, ninja, Star Wars, Technic, Harry Potter etc. sold 95% of them for well over $3000. 2 Quote
mayor Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Back several years ago, Chicago Brick Convention: everyone who attended received an evening pass to shop in one of the two Chicago land Lego stores. Everything had some damage to the boxes, a lot to very little. I was one of the 1st ones to draw a early number to get in the store. I picked several goodies, i did miss the death star. Everything was 1/2 price. I grabed a Green Grocer for $75.00, I already had one for our town collection. 2 months ago, on e-bay, it sold for $1,200 plus shipping to Singapore, a good customer of mine. We were both Happy, Happy, Happy!!! 4 Quote

Let those quidditch go this xmas. Most potter sets already peaked or is peaking. Invest that money to something else. 1 Quote
exciter1 Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 I think the best deal I actually ever had on LEGO was finding BrickPicker back in 2012. I can't think any deal that was really better than this. 8 Quote
