"Everything I buy I build"

[shizzybond]

I have a problem everything ibuy I build I have ovef a hundred seys and I've built 95% of them and love it just wanting to know if I'm the only one like this...

Pretty cool sets there

 

Hmm... yes and no.  I buy and mostly set aside to build later (just not much time for it now).  I don't plan reselling 'cause I like all my sets

I am a huge collector, builder and can say...I have never sold any sets! I need to buy a basement, once that happens....I will be a building mad-man from what I don't have open yet! I absolutely love this site! Great insight to the world of Lego....

I don't sell anything I buy. I mostly am a collector then a builder. I open an build only if I have at least two of a set. It's an expensive hobby lol

I try to stay away form Selling sets I don't already have for that reason - unless I don't want them.

 

First learned this with 5887 dino defense. Had to open it. Now that I have that out of the way, I own several as an investment.

Man you got a lot of room to display sets! My wife is barely letting me have my UCS at-st and imperial shuttle on my nightstand lol.

The only sets we build are the ones I pull from the stash for my kid's birthdays or Christmas. I've got over 500 sets locked away in my basement, and I don't have the urge to build a single one. It's called willpower, and that's why drug dealers never getter hooked on their own supply. I look at my supply as an extension of my savings (which it is), which makes it easier to keep them sealed. I satisfy my urges when the kids get a new set. I separate the pieces, locate them for each step, and apply the decals. My kids do the building. Fun times.

I also just finished building the Tower of Orthanc today. It is very impressive! I wish I had more room to display everything though. I had to break down my Harry Potter set today to make room

[shizzybond]

You have the life man. lol

[Spartikis]

well if you only buy one of each set thats a recipe for disaster. I always buy atleast 2 so you can build one and sell the other.

[justafrog]

We build some and hold some for future sale and part out most.

 

It's always a little more complicated in some ways to sell products that you love - you have to make enough profit or exercise enough willpower to make it work.
