DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 http://www.ebay.com/itm/141045080308?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 What do you all think about this lot? I estimated value at around 300 or so. This is to build, not necessarily to flip although I could do that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt1147 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I saw that one but was only interested in the IJ temple set! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 I saw that one but was only interested in the IJ temple set! Which was really what I bought it for. Funny enough, I have only 2 of the Star Wars sets he has there. With it pretty much being all stuff I wanted to keep, figured it was worth it. The temple is worth $110 by itself of the $166 I paid.

jaisonline Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Can't speak for FCB, but like me, he prob passed on it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fcbarcelona101 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I would have passed on it if I had seen it, I have a huge backlog of sets that I need to build and list before I get more. College is keeping me busy and I made the decision to not even look at eBay listings until I get rid of several sets I already have lol. Good score BTW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good score BTW Tough to do that man - with phones and pcs and everything else. I can't go about 20 minutes without checking Ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaisonline Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 with phones and pcs and everything else. I can't go about 20 minutes without checking Ebay. So true. Personally, I need to start finding space by selling items before bringing in more items. I gotta start advertising like "Crazy Eddie" !

Guest eightbrick Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I haven't done this for awhile... I think I'm getting a bit rusty lol. Brickpicker data for listed sets: Star Wars 8016 Hyena Droid Bomber $22.67 7663 Sith Infiltrator $22.40 7670 Hailfire Droid and Spider Droid $29.09 7778 Midi-Scale Millennium Falcon $40.73 7667 Imperial Dropship $21.00 Star Wars Subtotal: $135.89 Indiana Jones 7622 Race for the Stolen Treasure $61.72 7623 Temple Escape $110.67 7620 Indiana Jones Motorcycle Escape $30.73 Indiana Jones Subtotal: $203.12 Total: $339.01 As you originally suspected, the value is close to 300 dollars. I would guess that you can sell for very close to the values as apparently few pieces are missing and all figures/manuals are present (that said, sometimes what is advertised as a few is a lot). Again, if we are to take the seller's word then the couple extra sets should cover any losses due to pieces missing. A healthy double what you paid should be expected. The Verdict: FCB is jealous! FCB is jealous! FCB is jealous! Just kidding, nice score there! Expect some good profits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diabolos80 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Pretty nice score dude. I'm with you, i'd have bought it for the Temple Escape. That's a set I almost bought during my dark ages, and I regret not getting it. Supercool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
