Sadly, the slow selling Creator Fish Tank has more than twice the number of sellers.

I know it's slightly off topic, but I've been meaning to ask - I see there's like 200+ sellers on this, was this blown out somewhere at 70% off and I missed it?

I am seeing it for 25% off, probably just a bit of FOMO setting in. I don't love the set personally because I know nothing about Friends, but I know others are interested.

actually i think it's the opposite. Central Perk will perform great I think. The lack of recent discounts on it is telling I think.

ISD 75252 is one of the more intriguing sets for me. Does anybody remember what the originals were selling for before the rerelease?

Not the previous years of discounts?

I don't know about Central Perk, but I've found Brickset to be far less reliable on retirement dates than the other sites that report on such things.

Their data is pulled directly from Lego so is mostly accurate. Only ones I've seen wrong are when a set is slated then extended and they don't update to longer date

strange but @brickfanatics said 60345 farmers Market Van and 60347 Grocery Store will be retired this year 

Looking at these sets more, they both seem overpriced for what you get, esp considering it's a non licensed theme. The Grocery Store especially.

If you wish to replicate them exactly, via BrickLink, you will find them both very expensive to build.

Same here

They removed the “Retired” designation from the all sets view in the instructions app. You have to look at the individual sets status.

75252 - Imperial Star Destroyer sold out in the Netherlands

[joesnow2005]

How many are you holding this set: LEGO Technic Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 42093. Amazon is selling forever. And it doesn't help with sellers like this one:

 

 

[vasp]

Hmmm. I can never see that on any listing.

There should be something else going on.

75252 - Imperial Star Destroyer sold out at SAH - USA. 

[landphieran]

The Corvette was a set I really wanted to invest in and ended up missing the sales so I didn't buy any. Hagrids hut was a set my GF was telling me was going to be super popular. Me knowing nothing about Harry Potter thought it was ugly and didn't buy any. I did get stuck with my fair share of 41395 Friendship bus's and Jurassic Baronyx. We're all just trying to dodge landmines.

I wonder what this years landmines will be?
