Jeff Mack Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Ed and I were just pricing out the police station. It basically comes out to 40% off when using the Target Red Card. That is a home run for a set like this. LEGO Police Station Another good set is the Mobile Police Station Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not then it doesn't really seem like a great deal for resellers. You are really getting $20 off each set since you have to buy two and one at full retail. After any eBay type fees you won't really make anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Lego Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Online only or in store as well? I can't quite tell online. Based off of the Target ad in my Sunday paper it is in store and online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Mack Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Another good one is the Forest Police Station. It's normal retail is 79.99, Target is selling it for 59.99. Then you have the one at 50% off + the 5% red card if you have it. So you are looking at about $42.75 a piece for each if you buy 2.

I want to jump in on some of these sets but as I mentioned above I am not sure there is much money to be made if reselling is your goal unless saving them for when they go EOL is your plan.

I have no intention of letting any of them go for a while. For me its about the good deal. Amazon isn't offering the 50% off, so 42.75 is still a much better deal. I am in no rush. Rarely do I care about the quick flip, if ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are really getting $20 off each set since you have to buy two and one at full retail. After any eBay type fees you won't really make anything. Except they are allowing it on sale prices, so if you get a set that's already below retail then it can turn into a good deal. I don't think most people are looking at it as a quick flip. Like the police station, $85 down from $99 MSRP, so $65-ish for two....pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree with this at all but to answer your question a few of the city sets mentioned should be EOL soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't agree with this at all but to answer your question a few of the city sets mentioned should be EOL soon. It's a good sale. I just think realistically when you add free shipping that most sites give that we would have to charge and the cost of selling the amount of money to be made is fairly limited until these sets sell go EOL. Of it was a straight 50% off each set then it would certainly be worth it. All that being said I am somewhat tempted to grab some of the larger sets to sit on.

stephen_rockefeller Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 It would be very wise to pick up a mine....or 6 from this sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coneil21 Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I read somewhere to stay away from Police and Fire Stations as investments because Lego frequently makes new versions. Was that poor advice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephen_rockefeller Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Yes and no. The sets will gain value once EOL but at a slower pace due to amount of remakes. The forest police station is unique and should do good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshTX Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I know no one cares about Galaxy Squad, but this is the perfect opportunity for me to get a couple of the GS sets I wanted for myself...I'll probably also grab mines and forest police stations for investment.
