Msudawgs56 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Found a MF Vampires castle for 69.00. What is your thoughts on this price? Should I wait to see if it falls lower or go for it? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanfan34 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I think most on here will tell you to buy now, as you likely won't get a chance to see it go lower. Meaning it will sell before it has the chance to be marked down further. That was the case with the Walmarts around me who marked it down to $69, they went quickly. Although my area is not great for deals lasting long on the shelves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Lego Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I would buy it. It's better to have it now versus waiting and missing out on it. This set is more than likely going to retire very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quacs Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Yeah, I would go for it. Keep the receipt in case you see it lower, you can always return the first $69 one. You can always buy two, too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fcbarcelona101 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 There are 9 of them sitting on a local Walmart at that price since 6/22. I already have some VCs and will be waiting to see if they get them down even more in the coming weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 If you have some wait, if not - grab them. At that price even if its a secondary market dud, you will probably make most of your money back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowestFormOfWit Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 If you have some wait, if not - grab them. At that price even if its a secondary market dud, you will probably make most of your money back. VCs were $69.00 in my area a couple weeks back. I waited, and then two weeks later they were $45.00 to $55.00, and I snagged four at that price. Keep in mind, however, that you should know your market before you ever let clearance rot on the shelf. If you haven't studied how quickly or slowly things disappear from your local Walmarts/Targets for a few weeks/months, then you should pretty much bite on anything 40% off or greater, or even at 30% if you fear you'll "miss the boat". It's better to get some kind of discount and make some money, versus losing the set to waiting too long and making no money at all. I'm incredibly confident in judging the approximate time I can pass up first wave clearances in my area, because I've been doing it for weeks straight. Until you reach that level of comfort in your market, or if you never do, it's better to be safe than sorry, as cliche as that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emazers Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 If anybody can get the Vampire Castle for $69 you are foolish for not getting them, heck $69.00 is the Wholesale price, if I could get 20 more for $69.00 I would and I already have 64 of them. So you guys that are waiting to pick some of these sets up that are retiring for about nothing are making a mistake. I am talking about the guys that don't have any or just a few of the big sets that are retiring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcbarcelona101 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I actually agree that if you don't have any you need to pick them up at $69 even if there is a chance that they might go lower. I already have some and the WM that currently has them is pretty close, so I can check twice a week and decide whether to buy or wait more.

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 I have 5 now all at that price. Wish I had 64 like Ed. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willy431 Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 I've got 10 @ 75, (well....if the rest of my EE order ever gets here) and would buy another 10 at 69 in a second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
