shootyb Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 How much do you expect it to go for? I think it will go for 50% over RRP one year after retirement. Please do not make any investments on what I say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please do not make any investments on what I say. I'm thinking the same. It will take a year or two before the price really starts to climb, but once it does I think it will be a steady climber. I expect to be holding mine for a few years at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ciglione Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Yes... this one is definately a keeper for the long haul after EOL. I think it takes at least two Xmasses from EOL before we will see some serious growth. Maybe an interesting poll to see how many of these are (hoarded) in people's stacks? I start: I have 4.

shootyb Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Five, plus three of the polybags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wceagles Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Seven. No polybags left although sold for good prices Sent from my iPhone using Brickpicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Britsnap Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 No one knows, I'd read the helms deep or vampyre castle threads before taking this kind of advice from someone else. If you are deciding on what everyone else thinks you could be making the wrong investment decisions. I like this. You are asking a bunch of people who 'have stock' what they think. I cant imagine many will say 'nah don't buy it'. You guys are all going to be selling to each other in the years to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
46andTWO Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 128 and counting with 42 poly bags. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minicoopers11 Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) I would expect a bit more than 50% after first year. We'll see, I guess. This is now, wasn't its whole life however, a non-discountable exclusive in USA. Same cannot be said of helms deep and vampyre castle. That said, I have two. See, I'm a man of the people.

Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 21, 2014 Share Posted October 21, 2014 I've only ordered these once, 22 of them during 2VIP back in 2012. That's enough for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crustybeaver Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I've got close to 90 of these now. However as it's not looking like retiring anytime soon I'm going to hold up buying anymore till next year. This is by far my most stockpiled set and I'll be aiming for 100-150 by the time it's done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waddamon Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 That is a lot of VW. It should do well. So you maintain inventories of over 50 on most exclusives, warehouse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 @CB... My 22 seem pale in comparison but, I did load up on the Mars Rovers and did OK out of them. The Campers will do well if the market isn't too flooded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
