You do that and I will fly over to Holland, come round to your house where ever you live and smack you around the head. Smaug is selling for nearly that on Ebay on his own already. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerG Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Leave the poor guy alone - if he wants to return it let him return it - not before telling me where he bought it though ;-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrToes16 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I loaded up on remaining holiday baubles left over in the sale section of my Lego store. $3.99 each and I got about 4 or 5 of each. Do these do well? I am thinking putting these up for sale early fall just in time for the Christmas season. Maybe I'll add them as bonus items for sets I sell later on. 850850-1: LEGO SANTA HOLIDAY BAUBLE 850851-1: LEGO TREE HOLIDAY BAUBLE 850949-1: CHRISTMAS SNOW HUT ORNAMENT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rdandy5875 Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Found a 75056 2014 SW Advent Calendar hiding in one of my not-to-local Kmarts. I paid $40. It was not marked down LOL. I thought it was the 2015 until I I just looked it up. Hmmmm. And I bought their last Snowspeeder 75049. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffrey_Dollars Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 5x Birds 31.48 ea after reading reviews and thinking about it for a while im convinced these will appreciate nicely... They are great display pieces for adults and i see that as the #1 factor when selling on the second market. i like batman, and dont even like birds very much and i would rather have these on display in my home than a tumbler.

Dr. Brick Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 Bought my 43-rd copy of 70816 Benny's spaceship for $48. Just couldn't help myself. Main reason I bought this since it was the last copy at my local TRU and it had been staring me down for a month now. For the extra 15% off dropping it to $48 I just had to get it. Maybe at some point in the next decade I'll be making some money of these 43 copies... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up The Lonely Mountain 79018 for $138 with tax included in that price. Box was a little dinged up, but it had been sitting at B & N since last week.

Even without the lego movie, that ship is worth $100 as a classic space tribute. Maybe more. And if you like the lego movie the figures are probably worth 50 bucks Someday. In fact, now that I wonder if parting out this set is the winning strategy. You can maximize your profit by talking to the two different audiences in the same set. They don't necessarily overlap. If there was a classic space retro set released that looked exactly like this it would sell for $99+ with generic space figures and people would buy it. I don't see any way you're going to lose out on this deal unless you are forced to become impatient. I think the incredible availability of the set is warping people's view of the value of the set itself. Its like the exact opposite of the Town Hall. People hated the Town Hall, (boring, feels out of scale, boring) then it was unavailable and they loved it. Now they become insanely expensive and people remember they didn't like it in the first place . I think Benny's spaceship is the exact opposite. It's kind of like when people buy stocks and forget to do the homework on the actual fundamentals that drive stocknow price. Do with that what you will.

Still, seems like it should work out in the long run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of like when people buy stocks and forget to do the homework on the actual fundamentals that drive stocknow price. Do with that what you will. Actually, that's why I really like this set. Because of the vintage space look. I grew up with that vintage space lego Nd juat couldn't believe how relatively cheap this set is. With all the minifigures and the pieces count. I feel confident that this will become a $150~$200 set within the next 12-18 months. I'm a long term holder so I probably won't sell these till 2018 or so. I'm just now starting to sell some of mine 2012-2013 sets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salimr Posted January 17, 2016 Share Posted January 17, 2016 I bought my 5 year old a nexo knight set. It is actually really neat, and the app is entertaining also! my daughter got some friends party sets. Not bad for $4.99 I also bought all 10 hulk poly bags left from toys r us and 6 birds sets. I really like the birds sets and could see people wanting them as gifts as that is what I will do with them if they don't go up in value over the next few years, although I highly doubt they won't at least double. They look great and appeal to more people than just lego collectors. My grandma even likes it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
