John82 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 They know what their turds are, it's part of their code: var limit = 2; if (set == turd){ limit = 9999; } if (purchases > limit){ account = banned; } 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 The 346,603 returned Nexo sets in their warehouse from Xmas campaign should certainly help them work it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_rpg Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 The reseller detection algorithm probably looks something like this then: List <string> slowsellers = new List<string>("Nexo Knights","Friends","Ninjago","Simpsons","Elves"); foreach (item in order.items) { if(item.quantity >= item.limit && ! slowsellers.contains(item.theme)) { order.cancel=true; break; } } And the page loading has this embedded somewhere: Random random = new Random(); system.threading.thread.sleep(random.next(1000,10000)); 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val-E Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 And to get back on topic: If ITEM TAG="Retiring_Soon" = START new production run. Rinse and repeat till REMAKE console ACTIVE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking of ordering one (during Batman polybag promo) to confirm if it's still in production - I think it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Val-E Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 That would seem to indicate either a major last run or that demand has fallen away. Strange they have resisted marking it down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Ecto1 shows all the signs of being a total turkey but, we know it isn't (or certainy shouldn't be). However, I do remember the Delorean hanging on until the bitter end and I only bought a few as it was soooo butt ugly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voltron Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 Everyone keeps talking about Ecto 1 and Doctor who being the next delorean, but the reason delorean did good was most people dismissed it, everyone in UK has got at least 10 of each, there's too much supply. Sure ecto 1 is a fast seller, but theres only so many you can sell. Both will eventually for 1.5-2 RRP, but it might be a long time with too much supply. Everyone is also banking on there not being another doctor who set, if there is one (we can't rule it out) that will definitely hit the ideas version. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody knows how many Ecto1 or Doctor Who are hoarded. For all we know, it could just be LEGO forum members who are likely to be a very tiny fraction of the total buyer's base. Were many more of these made than the Delorean? We'll never know and I really don't care. Edited February 6, 2017 by TabbyBoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have about 10 but I paid more for mine. Didn't catch an opportunity to straight out buy them for that price. Unless there were voucher deals etc going on there...... Edit - From the last response, it looks like I did just miss one of those crazy offers Edited February 6, 2017 by BarryZola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
