Sorry for the frequent questions, I'm new to this and just want to be safe. A guy on CL is selling old Jabba Star wars sets NISB, includes:

 

#6210 Jabba's Sail Barge
#4480 Jabba's Palace
#7104 Desert Skiff 
#4475 Jabba's Message
#4476 Jabba's Prize

 

For 220 total. I think this is a pretty solid deal, and told him I'd take it (he wouldn't budge off his price.) I know the new star wars stuff kind of rehashes these sets, so I can imagine some of these have lost a touch of value.  I think i'm getting a pretty good deal, but not sure. Any input? what could I sell these for if i buy them?

The 6210 is worth more than 220$ by itself, buy it. Now.

 

Although you wouldn't be advised to hold onto them long-term as it's probably a quick flip.. the 6210 might continue to decrease in value as the new one becomes more prevalent.

Got em :) All factory sealed except 4476, which had minor box damage, but pieces still in bag.

 

Now if anyone wants to blow me away, i could part with them.... ;)

Great score, Mrlinderman! You will likely make a quick $600, I think.

Congrats man! That`s an awesome score.  :thumbsup:

So awesome that you were even able to think about buying it. For most of us, hesitating on a deal like that would've been game over. I really wish I lived in a less competitive market. Congrats!

No you don't. The markets with "less competition" also have a lot less quality sellers.

Maybe so, but I don't buy at a high enough volume to be worried about a constant stream of purchasing opportunity. So, on the contrary, I'd prefer to be able to browse CL once a week, see something good once or twice a month, take the time to think about it, and buy it. As it is now, CL is loaded with "in the know" resellers marketing their stuff at 90% of brickpicker worth, and the other 10% are Soccer Mom's selling their kids collections for half price, the latter getting gobbled up within 20 minutes. Seeing as I don't invest for a living, I'd quite prefer the occasional deal that isn't sold the second it's listed as I don't have the time or resources to devote 100 or even 80% of my effort to this "lifestyle". But it would sure as hell be sweet to find a two day old listing for a Hogwarts castle that's still available. Just sayin.
