BrickSamurai Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Found and picked up a box and half of the SW 501 battle pack 75280 and couple of the HP Great Hall 75954 at wally world for a decent price below MSRP. Not surprisingly mixed with clearance stuff but I've seen this happens a few times with the a few the wally worlds around here in the south.

Popular Post oneknightr Posted February 10, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 10, 2021 Someone posted on Nextdoor that they were moving and put a bunch of stuff in their driveway for garbage/donation. They said feel free to come by and take whatever. One of the pics had two skateboards in it, and I wanted to get them for my kids. Got there 25 mins after the post and as I pulled up, I saw some lady grabbing pretty much everything and putting it next to her car. All the stuff wouldn't even fit in her Jetta, but she was selfish about it. Anyways, I saw the skateboards in her car and was bummed out. I decided to look anyway and lucked out on a box of Lego that was sitting under another box that she hadn't seen yet. Woohoo! Take that selfish lady! 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrickSamurai Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 (edited) Got my lonely SW 75280 battle pack from Amazon for $24.00 each. Waiting for the next double VIP to pickup other sets including the latest Technic sets All Lego purchases have been on the back burner for a while now but not really looking at stepping or ramping it up, just getting what I really like.

Belac Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Bought a few more at-st today at 20% off. I'm guessing this will be a longer hold for my asking price. It's not on a retiring list yet and it will have a substantial amount of sellers to get through. Still worth it to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcbarcelona101 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Went to the local LEGO store to get a couple more Creeper Mines since I knew they had them at 20% off. Surprisingly, they also had a few Tantives at $160 so added a couple more to the stash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P-Lynch6 Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Stumbled on someone selling a Captain Marvel and the Asis 77902 on Facebook Marketplace. Had never seen or heard of that set before, but after some quick research decided it was something I needed to get. They also said they had an original Mos Eisley Cantina 4501 (blue box) so I grabbed that as well. I'm still pretty new to the game but thought these two were some great finds. I am pumped. Got both for of these for well below the current market value too! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneknightr Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Was on the fence but ended up buying it off of Craigslist for $80 based on @Phil B's recommendation. My 8yo son can't stop playing with the ejector seat! haha Will be taking this apart soon to rebuild with him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mplsabdullah Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 (edited) Porsche was in stock this morning so I grabbed one along with a Tuk Tuk. 👍 I've been buying so many sets for my children and thought I'd get in on the Lego fun. Shame there was no freebie promotions available now to go along with them. Edited February 18, 2021 by mplsabdullah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Captain_chaos Posted February 25, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2021 I didn't buy a Lego set today, I bought an empty Lego box. Specifically, I bought the box for 10182 Café Corner. Saw it come up on eBay for ~£30 and pounced, since these are a) as rare as hen's teeth and b) if you can find one it'll be worth well over £100 (the only one on Bricklink is about £270 not including shipping). I do actually have a Café Corner which previously had no box, so that's nice. Also on the theme of rare bits for expensive modulars, I managed to bag a set of instructions for 10190 Market Street for ~£50. Again a very good find as the typical price would probably be 3 - 4 times that. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I had a box to go with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
$20 on joe vs dan Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I recently bought a used 1989 Batmobile (I am now free to sell the other two NISB-this is how I roll)...especially relevant because the seller included two other LEGO set boxes (in good condition): a current play scale MILF box to house the built part of the set and another (Orange x-wing) as a spacer. The Batmobile box had the unopened bags. Poor guy forked over $55 in postal fees...I advised to him to next time purchase shipping thru ebay which is usually highly discounted (especially FedEx Ground)....I didn't mention the obvious about keeping dimensions to a minimum. Anyway, i now have a box for the used MILF I will eventually get (I hear it's the best version) and a box for the used orange xwing which I recently bought. sidenote: I also have some near mint Modular set boxes...of which I am hunting for used sets (don't ask...but bet many here can guess how that happened); if anyone is selling, I have a near mint BB box that could really use a set to go with it ☺️ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO it’s kind of like getting the set again as the box is the outer packaging and/or the instructions usually prompt me to disassemble and rebuild the set itself 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
