BuckeyeFanDan Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 With the recent info about the Orc Forge, I figured I had procrastinated long enough, so I picked one up at Target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshTX Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 On Craigslist picked up a lot of 5 opened Alien Conquest sets with box and manuals for 60 bucks. This is great for me as I wanted to build these sets but didn't want to pay anywhere close to retail and they were already retired by the time I got back into Lego. I built the alien abduction set tonight. I know these sets flopped as far as investing, but I really like these sets. They seel like a homage to the old 1950's sci-fi films and the Alien minifigs are unique and "cute". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I buy the loose Aliens off Bricklink for my daughter...she loves them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huskers1236 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Garage sale find this morning. Approximately 40lbs of lego(and mega blok ) for $25. Can't wait to sort through as I already saw original Jango's head and helmet, hoping to find the rest. A bricklink store owner lives near me and buys bulk for $5/lb all day, so I'm pretty sure I've turned my $25 into at least $150 before I even start.

I hit garage sales for about 2 months, never found squat, and figured I'd rather get an extra hour sleep anyway. Glad it worked for somebody :) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshTX Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 As mentioned in another thread, I purchased a used Imperial Star Destroyer and a Slave 1 this afternoon from a kid and his Mom off Craigslist. Missed out on the Jawa Sandcrawler because I hesitated when they said it was missing some pieces and it ended up sold to someone else after they agreed to hold it for the guy.

tonysbricks Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 SSD, x-wing, jabba palace, and rancor pit used for $325. Pristine condition and all sets complete. Bought them to build, the deal is OK but the real savings is not opening the NIB sets I bought to build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerrmando Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 I didn't get to post his until now, but on Saturday last I bought Two SSD's Two Death Stars, Two Tower Bridges, Two Yellow Cargo Trains and Two MBA Series 1! And then on Sunday I bought two more Chess sets. Coupons are nice =) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad it worked for somebody List-alert.com is a man's best friend if this is something you're into. I make sure that it hits any listings for garage sales that show "lego" or "legos" in my city. Just had3 more yesterday. Got to the first one at 7 in the morning, and their lego lot had already sold(person showed up at 6:30am). Went to a 2nd that opened at 8 and picked up the lot that I purchased. There was a 3rd near my house, but a guy needs to get to work at some point, so I missed out on that one, but I have a big enough project in front of me with this one. Check out the site if you troll Craigslist for Lego finds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akohns Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 2x Quinjet Aerial Battle for $40 a piece Nice! That's what I go mine for too! I think that's going to be a good price point to make some good profit as these don't seem to have sold really well at retail. One Walmart near my house has about 35 of them on an endcap in the back of the store. All still retail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
