spener90 Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 While visiting my sister I found a Lego store that had some retired sets on sale. Got a Seinfeld set for 67.99, Harry Potter Chess for 47.99, and a few others. Plus got 2 cups of masonry bricks which got me to the promos. The boxes were damaged, but still. I’ve never seen retail LEGO stores get old retired sets this late in the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never seen retail LEGO stores get old retired sets this late in the game? they primarily go to the ones that used to be classified as outlet stores which are most the ones in the Mills malls, Sugarloaf, Concord, Sawgrass etc. SAH would send the online returns to those stores back in the day and still do just not labeled as outlet stores anymore. Can alway see old random retired stuff returned in store at regular LEGO stores from time to time too. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thanos75 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 I have a major weakness when it comes to polybags. Found a bunch of these at the TRU inside of Macy's for 50% off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Friends one is just absolutely bonkers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fossilrock Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I decided to buy the bookshop today. I'm not sure if this one is retiring or not, but I hadn't picked this one up yet. Had some lego point sitting around, and the maze is netting about 30.00 on ebay, and the halloween pack is netting around 10. So, figured with 40.00 worth of promos, this was better than buying it at 2x VIP points. I'm hoping the Police Station is still around at the end of this month with the Moving Van promo. I plan on buying that one too for investment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillyBricks Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Picked up the Lunar New Year Parade for 20% off and there's a $14 Honey reward to go with 2x points and the Scary Pirate Island set. Seems like the Halloween VIP add-on is done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilrock Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 With Assembly Square retiring, I jumped on lego.coms 2x vip promo and picked one up. Didn’t want to skip this one before it’s gone to the secondary market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustBrickinAround Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I know it’s not retiring, but I had to get 75331 UCS The Razor Crest out of the way with that crazy 30% discount / double Insider points / GWP / 2.5% Rakuten cash back / 2% CC cash back stack. Probably won’t see that price again. Now all eyeballs on the UCS Venator [hopefully] going on sale for Black Friday, and CANNOT WAIT for that bomb Avengers Tower around that same time. Day 1 purchase, and hopefully it comes with a good promo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bricklectic Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Personally not buying anything these days unless 1) 50% or larger discount AND a desirable set on my hit list (in the past 50% to me was a indiscriminate purchase) or 2) some unusual opportunity (like the stealth early retirement of the colosseum) Everyone thought that the new influx of sellers would spell the end of lego investing or amazon closing the gates but ironically imo its lego itself with their never ending stream of bigger and better sets flooding the market, remakes, rehashes, or otherwise. That + consumer pullback = death of investing. That said, I expect epic sales Q4 this year, so I may be dragged back in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they are testing the ilk of the market (and resellers)...seeing how far to push. The discounts along the way appear to be their way to hedge and control inventory levels.

You gonna build it? I've built mine twice since it fell on the floor and is apparently pretty fragile vs. floor. Great set and would love more of these types of sets.

Great set and would love more of these types of sets. Yep, adding it to the Red shirt/Blue cap Minifigure and the HP duo. By going the BL route I probably saved max $20 over just buying one from a local seller on EBay, but a dollar is a dollar Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
