ExoBro94 Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Guys, I'm choosing to divulge this info to you. This is the big one and can be a hit or miss. BTTF sets have begun leaking at LEGO Stores across the country. I was making a delivery at work this morning an was right by my local one, so I decided to drop in. I got there before the store opened. The store only had 12 in stock and I was able to take 4. I will be creating anothe threa very soon about MASSIVELY IMPORTANT info I have received about this whole reselling issue. Let me tell you though, it is not good. The "Golden Age" of reselling LEGO has officially come to a close. More on that soon. Also, the LEGO stores have the Fall Scene polybag in stock. This is not "officially" being sold yet by LEGO on LEGO Shop at Home. Finally, the new LEGO Architecture Studios set is in stock at the stores but not out on display yet. However, the barcode a are in the system and they scan so if you ask for them, they can sell them to you. This is not a drill. I repeat, this is not a drill. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Lego Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 The "MASSIVELY IMPORTANT" information doesn't sound great for us investors. I'm getting anxious. They let you buy 33% of their BTTF sets yet they told you new/important information concerning resellers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth_Raichu Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 The news was bad but they still let you get 1/3 of their BttF stocks ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoBro94 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 I was not allowed to buy 4. I was allowed to buy 2 and asked a woman in the store to purchase 2 more for me. So I got 4 but barely. I had an interesting chat with the store manager and clerks. When I go on lunch break, ill write a new thread about that info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephen_rockefeller Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Plus the word of one local Lego store is far from gospel........nonetheless still interested on what the "rumor" is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExoBro94 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Also, I called my girlfriend and told her to drive to the mall and get two more, but when she got there, they were already sold out. It took 30 minutes for that to happen. The tore opened at 10am and they were gone by 10:30am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boomzoom Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 same at the lego store I went to yesterday, and I posted about it. All the Aug 1 release is already at the store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExoBro94 Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 Quick flip before the 1st?? There's still time! HUrryy This! Plus, I anticipate a huge drought of these. I think worse than minecraft tbh. I don't think LEGO will be able to keep up especially with the production error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomzoom Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 And it is already gone. My store only had one shipment of 12 and they are all gone. I've heard other stores have sold out too. There were at least 4 at my store last night. They said they thought they had it sold out but found 4 more at the back today. Who knows how long they have been selling it. while trying to get to $75 to get the hotdog cart, I bought 1, I don't know why I did though as they will be available on Aug 1 any way. should I buy them all if they still have them today? worth the investment?

LegoFink Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 When we say "resellers", how much activity are we referring to? I mean I invest and will be reselling at some point, but I don't think I'm a reseller. We are talking volume here, correct? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only invest in 1-2 max per set i deem worthy. except dynamic duo and orc forge...4-5 for those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
