cladner Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 3 Architecture Studios from LEGO Shop at Home sale showed up today, each in their own sealed LEGO carton. no spider gouges like every single set that BN has. it's weird that this is the only set that they put on sale and then took off the sale. old old old. 2 are from September 2014 and one is from December 2013. buying these because its Architecture and that's a core theme for me but still not sure how this set is going to pan out. i have 4 that's enough - this is potentially the "pre-exosuit" with initial scarcity and resulting hype and price bump and then subsequent restocking to complete ubiquity and devastation of the aftermarket - there's a little devil on my shoulder muttering snidely, quietly "you could have bought another Sandcrawler, Slave I, EV Ferris Wheel, etc". SHUT-UP! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHUT-UP! When studio originally came out with price of $150 it went out of stock/temporarily unavailable/sold out (can't remember which one) for a long time and it got to the point where I was able to sell couple for $299, so who knows, it could end up like exo, or maybe like female scientists....or remember first cuusoo minecraft cube? (21102), it was going for really high amounts before it came back...but now.....eh 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Yep. I remember when Target got a surprise shipment of those after it had been sold out for awhile. We weren't sure if it was coming. Ask or a lost but found pallet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarleyMoose Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 For $10 I picked up very nice instructions for HP 4842 and 4841 off CL one town over. They were in an ad with lots of common instructions all for $40. I called to ask if they'd just sell me the HP. When I get to the house I ask "Dottie" who was in her 80's if they were selling the LEGO that goes with all the books. Her reply with a smile, "Hell no". They'll be bummed when they want to rebuild. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmendol1 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Used $15 VIP points at Lego Store on BBT to get for $32 as I'm a huge fan of the show. Own all the available seasons.. Its a build set I plan on putting next to the DVDs on the shelf as I'm not too keen on its investment potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The managers are playing hard ball with this one and I refuse to pay more than $50 for this set. I did well buying my Turtle Van Takedowns for $15 or less selling them for $50 during the holidays. The lair just hasn't been rising well enough though to drop $75 a piece for them. Good luck with this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjj1984 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 (edited) I found a ISD at TRU for $115. That was a pleasant surprise--I'm guessing they found it in the back (?). Every time I go to that TRU, they have some random older set (and just one). Over the past two months, I've purchased a Jedi Scout, B-Wing, and AT-TP from this store (all on separate visits). Another thing I thought was strange was that they had two Slave I's on the shelf. Returns? Edited February 28, 2016 by tjj1984 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Returns? make sure that you are weighing those sets and check seals on sets. i have found few sets with missing either minifigures or bags especially those sets bought from BB stores.

BuckeyeFanDan Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Found a 31038 Changing Seasons at Walmart for $25. No sign or anything, so I scanned it. At 50% off, I couldn't pass it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the heads up. I haven't opened the ISD yet but the seals all look perfect. The other three have been opened and built--they were also complete. I just started collecting recently so I missed all of those sets during their natural lifetime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already at my limit on them, and my average buy in was well under the Thursday 10%, so I left it behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spoonchicken Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Found a Friends Jungle Rescue Base at WM for 30. Bought it for parts. Left 5 others sitting on shelf. Any thoughts if money can be made on the rest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
