Jimmyh70 Posted August 8, 2014 Posted August 8, 2014 Finally had some luck with Craigslist. Saw pictures of pieces of ninjago dragons in a box. Paid $20. Included 95% of the pieces for 2509 earth dragon, 2507 Fire Temple and 9441 Kai's bike. Will maybe spend $10 on missing pieces to make them complete. And just picked up a new 75020 Jabba's sail barge for $65 Quote

biniou Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Nice acquisition! Ah ! thanks, I was wondering how many time I have to wait. I think the incoming December is the more simple and wise choice. Quote

terrymc4677 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 Bought 3 Deloreans out of the AWH To build? Why do I have a hunch that you will build and display each version? 2 Quote
holleman67 Posted August 9, 2014 Posted August 9, 2014 To build? Why do I have a hunch that you will build and display each version? He's making a big one to go back in time. Just missing the flux capacitor. 1 Quote

Popular Post Taco Tuesday Posted August 9, 2014 Popular Post Posted August 9, 2014 Was browsing the Lego store today and had to do a double-take when I saw a Fire Brigade on the shelf. Needless to say, I grabbed it immediately and asked one of the employees how this was still there and he said someone returned it and that they apparently don't look on ebay. The box had very slight creasing, but the seals looked intact. So I found a new condition retired set for msrp, got VIP points for it, and a Mini Cooper poly bag. I'd call that a win. 13 Quote

Pseudoty Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I went garage sailing for lego for the first time ever. Found none but bought a real 1972 USPS Scale to weigh my sets. 2 Quote
redghostx Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 Benny spaceship for $65 and ATAT for 87 at TRU with no tax 2 more Research Institutes (plus tax) Finally purchased a small PAB to help finish market street - that was a good find. Passed on city garage at $95 - coupon wouldn't work on it and it was cheaper before and my trunk only fits so much Lego + luggage. This TRU had a TB at $300 - someone must have bought it then realized it was 25% overpriced (or overvalued by 20%, depending on your math preference) Ex Astris, Scientia. Quote

Jondog21 Posted August 10, 2014 Posted August 10, 2014 I'm not a real investor, I just love this site for helping me find deals for my personal collection. So I went big today amd bought a pet shop, palace cinema and Parisian restaurant. Because of this site, I applied for the TRU card a few weeks ago to take advantage of the 25% coupon and 10% Thursdays. I was just playing around and was surprised to see that the 15% off code I got with the credit card worked on the exclusive lego sets at TRU.com. So between that code, the 25% off staple gift cards and then the current 15% off twosmiles gift cards! I got these for a little over 30% off. A huge chunk of my wants in one blow! 4 Quote
