Cheese Posted March 26, 2016 Posted March 26, 2016 Passed on a bricklinked UCS MF for £800. Was going to treat myself given it was my birthday but that would have taken my monthly spend over 3000 for this month alone. May regret it further down the line. Quote

I have been good for Shopko's bottom line this month .. binged on their SPRING4/SPRING50 promotion on top of already discounted sets. To make this post worthy of "what set did you NOT buy": I did not buy a trashed 31010 Treehouse 3-1 box at WM as they only offered me 10% off of the $21 clearance price, and then I found out it had been retaped. I also did NOT buy 3 Iron Patriots at Gamestop today .... ;-) Edited March 27, 2016 by Phil B Quote
LegoAddict42 Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 Yes keeping in line with the thread I did not buy the three heartlake ranch sets in the sale aisle at Shopko. They were still full price. Quote
justapilgrim Posted March 27, 2016 Posted March 27, 2016 Yes keeping in line with the thread I did not buy the three heartlake ranch sets in the sale aisle at Shopko. They were still full price. They were 20% off with $10 off $50 about $45 each, nor bad for retired product Quote

I keep looking at the bricklinked mf's that are popping up on ebay, but it's still a hell of a lot for a non original set. 22 minutes ago, Sprocket77 said: I have been very busy not buying over the last few days.

HAHA I'll probably try and go back at some stage. Need to free up some cash flow with a few more sales first, it's an out of the way store, so could still be there in a few months. Quote
Loghamel Posted March 29, 2016 Posted March 29, 2016 In the states, I probably would've bought them all. Quote

Ant Man is worth several times its retail price already in the States. And the Tumbler is a sold 50% increase already. Amazing how different things can be across the pond, both demand and supply.

Sharkbait Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 I saw a bunch of retired sets at a Barnes and Noble near me for RRP. Looks like they went through their backroom. 1x 60003 - Fire Emergency 2x 60075 - Excavator and Truck 2x 76016 - Spider-Helicopter Rescue 2x 70165 - Ultra Agents Mission HQ I have been reading a lot about the Ultra Agents HQ's, wondering if that is something I should go back for?

No. No. No. Your going to have to wait until its around $9 before you can make a profit. Even then its going to be slim. 9 hours ago, Poly 30286 said: At my local WM 75024-1: HH-87 Starhopper $45ish.

Phil B Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 90% off in SoCal? BS (Baking Soda) Did you bribe a manager? Maybe he printed his own labels ... Didn't that SAP VP live in SoCal as well? Quote
