Buying my first and last 16 of these is hardly going deep. These are only run-of-the-mill sets anyway and any "gems" that I buy are a very closely guarded secret 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKiwi Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Here's what I had to REJECT today: My 16x 21047 Las Vegas just arrived from IWOOT earlier than expected, but the boxes were soaking wet and I refused delivery. It's a shame as they appeared to be in 2 sealed cartons of 8, but there's no way that I'll accept ones that have been left outside in the rain. It just beats me how Hermes can remain in business as they are clearly the worst courier of all, every delivery I've had from them has had problems. Thank you Hermes - NOT! @joneyyy1981..... You can forgive me as you now have a lot more 21047 Las Vegas than I do! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Shortbus311 Posted October 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 4, 2020 Bought this lot off of OfferUp for $60 because I noticed a "Buckingham Palace" tile in one of the bags in the picture. It ended up being Buckingham Palace, The Louvre, White House (original), and Flintstones set... all 100% complete, without instructions. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of a friend who was a manager at the park has recently been laid-off; so I know there has been some significant lay-offs.They’ve been open since July? I think. For some time now, anyway. I haven’t visited, because they tend to overcharge on the small stuff ($11 for Brickheadz and +$1 on minfigures and polybags).Normally you have to pay for parking and then spend a minimum to get your parking fee back, but they’ve suspended that for now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goliatron Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 I pulled the trigger on bulk vintage legos from an estate sale auction. Paid $212 and was hoping for some good surprises. I knew the lot was worth what I paid based on the pictures but was hoping to get lucky. I think I did. Sets with instructions: 6972, 6895, 6990 (box too), 6985, 6085, 6274, 6270, 6276, 6392, 6039, 8845, 8815, 6054, 6066, 6941, 6952, 8040. 7 totes of various sizes full, so who knows what else. Lots of work ahead, but lots of fun and profit for my son and me! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grabbing sets on Ebay and these local purchases baffle my mind because you really have to be on your game to scoop them up. I don't know of anyone on this site who has a more appropriate username.

BrickVoyeur -- Always Watching. It's all random. I just have specific saved searches on every venue that make my random, less random. This was a total of 3 eBay purchases a few weeks ago for about $220 total. I put the figures in my Bricklink store, and the sets will end on eBay or Mercari. I also have a 10188 Death Star and 8039 Venator that I grabbed off of Facebook for $150 that me and the kids are building. I only check my searches 3 times a day on eBay and Mercari, facebook when I'm feeding the baby at night, and Craigslist sends emails each time something is listed. Just random. While I do grab new sets by the cart full...there is something calming about being able to look at a lot and already know the profit margin.
