No, legos not pulling the set... it will probably go eol at the end of the year. just wait till amazon discounts it again (fingers crossed)

Lol amazon is done discounting this set my friend......they aren't stupid! Also I bet the rancor pit will not see discounts like it did due to this whole fiasco.

[Rich B]

I highly doubt Amazon will discount this set again. I could be wrong, but I'm sure they're aware of the demand for this set just like everyone else, and therefore it will most likely remain at retail or higher.

[stephen_rockefeller]

Is there an echo in here??? Lol

Sorry bud didn't see your comment till just now lol

I'm just busting your chops man......we are always on the same page!!

From what I understand this set was going to go EOL at the end of 2013 regardless. They have a deal with Lucas that lets them sell the set until a certain point. This set may disappear soon if they don't decide to do another run of it, which is quite possible. But it is also still possible that they will decide to make more again, just because of the increase in popularity.

My God... I can't believe someone is bidding $77 for just this box. THE BOX!

It has to be they think is the set right? I can't imagine someone paying that just for the box!

[dakotahorn]

Man I don't know but I wish I wasn't such a good person... I had to fight down the urge to list one myself.

[Corythejedi]

It's sold out down most targets, TRU, and walmart e down south florida. You'd think they were EOL!

Thing is, he posted that is the box only very clearly, title and description. A lot of people sell the box only, specially in Bricklink so I don't think he is doing something wrong, just that those bidders seem to clicking the bid button with their eyes closed.

Then when they receive the item I assume they will complain and the seller will have to deal with those issues.

Why people bid is beyond me. Can't think of any person who is interested in Legos who only buys the boxes. Maybe he is one of those sellers that sells new sets and instructions but the listing says "NO BOX INCLUDED". Maybe just trying to impress people...with the box, and sticks cereal (IMO he should do Cheerios) inside to make it sound like Legos.

Right, but why would he even bother when he clearly states there is no box included?. In this type of scenario, for example if I'm selling a damaged box item or something like that, what I usually do is just contact the winning bidder before shipping the item to ask him once again if he knows he is getting a damaged box item and to confirm me that is what he really wants (even though I clearly posted it in the description and with several pictures).

That way I know the person read the listing properly and avoid claims that they didn't know the box was damaged, etc.

Or they were just currently out of stock because everyone made a run on it because they think it is going EOL. I bet by next month things are fully stocked again, but eventually this could be a great set to invest in.

I only invest in them there racist legos - they done do appreciate in value much better. Merica! (says in southern redneck voice) ;)

And, did you make a run on it foaming at the mouth and cleared them all out?!

[stephen_rockefeller]

doubt it......most of us DFWers already knew this set would be a winner so we already had what we needed. I also have left 30 or 40 on the shelves at local Walmarts......I had enough of these before the panic hit.

Back in stock on LEGO Shop at Home. Meaning we should start to see it showing back up in stores.

[Legoprofits]

Should I buy this then? will the cost of this increase in a years time?

[chess227]

A little over 100 back in stock at amazon at retail price. I wonder how many are returns from people who got them to try and make a quick profit, realized the buzz died down and then returned them

[metsrock507]

i returned 2 of mine to the lego store yesterday.

Haha, I'm willing to bet many of them were returned for that very reason.

Target back to 119.99... Wonder if Target will have another discount on the set...
