What Lego set did you buy today?

[No More Monkeys]

1x Cap vs Hydra.  From Wally-world.  Only one they had, granted, my walmart is the worlds worst walmart.  The agony of living in the mountains

Is there some advantage of trying to find it in store, vs. ordering it online at walmart.com? did your store have it cheaper than 14.97+tax??

Trip to the Lego store?

I'm curious as to how he got them online.  They are all sold out.

Haha, I was wondering the same thing.

I am curious too.  He might have bought them online, but definitely not today or last few days.

I'm guessing it was less, "NO WAY!" and more "Hey, cool, post about it in the daily deals section next time please."

Or employees taking advantage of their status.

Or gift card schemes involving multiple retailers.

There are probably other systems we never thought of.

 

To sell for no profit?  $200 is nearly 50% off for three sets that have only been released in the last three months.

Where did you score those?

Bought an Xwing 9493

To build or to invest in ?

I'm still wondering if it may be a good idea to pair it with the 9492 tie-fighter...

Haven't really been buying much lately, but i did grab a sw advent calendar and a couple older polybags (mikey's mini shell raiser and spiderman glider).

Willis Tower on ebay, for my own collection.   I screwed up on this one as I always thought I have at least one copy of this set, but turns out I never did.  Now I have to pay the price.

Earlier today I was complaining about the lack of deals so I ventured out only to come back with the following:

 

1x Winter Village Market @ MSRP + retro spacemen bonus

5x LOTR Black Gate @ $29+tax

2x Cargo Truck @ $19+tax

 

I need to make a gameplan for the double VIP points and Holiday set #1 next month.

Did Sopwith also go in stock on Target this morning? I notice they have it listed at $129 now (you paid $99?) and am wondering if they just raised the price today.

 

Also curious, why did you black-out the quantities and $$ cost in the images? Seems a tad bit odd since there is nothing private there.

Bought 2 x Ninjago 2505 Garmadon's Dark Fortress (NISB) for 58 euro each today.

That's a good price!

Sold one couple weeks ago for 129 GBP, nice profit!

I decided to bite the bullet and buy a WVM. I was planning to wait until October, but I'm not sure it will last that long!

my personal thinking says this set will be around till at least november. but its just me and my feeling no inside information.

 

yes i know its been out from major retailers but doesn't necessarily mean anything. just like VW camper came back with a big bang after and still being out/away from majority of retailers. its showing itself once in a while ...

You're probably right. But I'm not going to risk it again after the exo suit/research institute fiasco. Better to be safe than sorry. Plus I'll still get the retro spaceman for this month. Now I just need to figure out what I'm going to get for October...

[DoNotInsertIntoMouth]

SOOO much on Think Geek. mostly black gates as well as some Castle sets.

 

I also redeemed my crap load of Think Geek points as well.
