corbaguy Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 For those of you who saw my other post, sorry for the repeat. For those who didn't, I picked up a box at an "Estate Sale" (where the resident and her mother were very much alive) for $80. It has a complete Cafe Corner modular (was missing four small pieces) and what looks like a complete 5526 Skyline. Massive thanks to @jgschmieg3 and @Alpinemaps for identifying the two sets from a pic last night with a part of one instruction page from the CC and a couple partially built sections of the skyline. Also from a CL post, I picked up a used, but supposedly complete Simpsons House for $100. Haven't dug into it yet, I was a little distracted by the CC. I've seen so many posts with great finds and I've lost out on two online charity auctions lately, one with a Black Pearl and one with a UCS ISD and a UCS IST, so it felt good to get a win. I've always said I'm in this to finance my Lego building/collecting habit, so I may offer the CC up for trades for a package of sets I want for my collection like the GBHQ, Sandcrawler, and UCS Red 5. Tigereyez, where was the estate sale you picked up the CC? Saline, MI? Quote

This was the pick in the CL ad. They had 14 other pics of ugly jewelry, clothes, and dishes. With this one pic and one off hand mention of Legos Edited July 24, 2016 by TigerEyez Quote

Lordoflego Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 3 x high speed passenger train 60051 for total of $270, local deal. 3 Quote
labfreak7 Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 That's a great find at 80 dollars. I have built the skyline- it's not too bad, and it looks cool. Quote
MarleyMoose Posted July 24, 2016 Posted July 24, 2016 CL Rhode Island lot all used and seem to be complete. 7748 Corporate Alliance Tank Droid 10174 UCS Imperial AT-ST 7675 AT-TE Walker 8039 Venator-Class Republic Attack Cruiser 5770 Lighthouse Island All for $245. Most likely just sell off all but the 10174. That's going into the UCS collection. 2 Quote
DadsAFOL Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Was in Target and saw a 21128 Village on the shelf, marked clearance at 139.98. Obviously an online return. But interestingly, when the cashier scanned it at checkout it came up with a "do not sell" and street date of 9/1. Took 3 people to work it out but I was able to purchase it. So I wonder if this "exclusive" will be showing up on Target shelves for Christmas. 1 Quote

MinifigW Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Just had the biggest score of my life at WM. Will update tomorrow but I will say it included $50 IRBs Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) As a follow up to my post of 22JUL, I'm returning the entire shipment to Argos due to shocking condition of the sets - the worst I have ever seen! I'll not be buying from them ever again regardless of deals and special offers. Sorry, I couldn't find the "Which LEGO set did you NOT buy today" thread ;-) Edited July 25, 2016 by TabbyBoy Quote

redghostx Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Just now, justapilgrim said: in for 1. I think that we can assume that everyone is in for 1, unless cancelled, over limit, or the sale ends. 2 Quote
jaxman Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Okay I ordered another one, but I'm hoping they're not sending me the same one I just returned. Quote
PickSomeBricks Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 Just picked up a ucs tie fighter for $48 on Amazon. It claims to be new limit 1 per buyer Quote
