WOW! I wonder what the person intends to do with that many. It's hard to fathom spending that much money once shipping is added. Does UK not have #41999?

The UK has the 41999. When I hear that a person is trying to get a lot of a certain set (41999), and there is only a limited amount of them (20,000), I think that they are trying to control the market in the future. A lot of these sets have been sold since it was released, after a majority of the sets are sold, they they become harder to find at decent prices. If one person has a lot of these sets, then they can inflate the price because there are so few that are on the market.

That's what I was thinking as well. However, it's still hard to fathom that someone has that kind of resources to wield a sizeable economy of scale on this set to manipulate the price.

 

Personally, I think investing in equities like mutual funds, stocks, or options with that money might be more fruitful.

I was thinking of how many sets that person has, and he must have spent a lot of money on these sets. In some other topics on Brickpicker, from what I remember, he has like 100 41999 and still counting.
