Popular Post brickvoyeur Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Quote I'll read the Nightmare Before Christmas story this year, kids. Twas the night before Clearance And all through the aisle Steamrollers were packed Into my cart like a pile Exo Suits were hung In the storage with care Knowing that in a decade They still will be there Sergeant Jyn Erso was nestled Deep under my bed With terrible proportions And a face that looks dead Wonder woman in her armor And cheetah in her cap The lasso of truth will tell you That this set is pure crap When out on my doorstep A noise shook me awake ShopJustice still delivering Olaf Flat as a pancake Faster shipping than FedEx The turds as they came I cried and I pouted As I called them by name "Now, Dots! now, Mario! Now Lego Movie 1 and 2! On, Raiders! on, Mighty Dinos! On, Takodana and constractables too! To the depths of the dumpster! Stacked 50 feet tall Now throw away! throw away! throw away all!" Each year I make efforts To donate a bit more But Toys for tots sends a bill For returning them to my door Since I can't give them away I'll dig a big pit It's the final solution To get rid of this sh!t I shook as I laughed At the thought of relieving this pain It was nearly 3am So I looked quite insane As I poured the kerosene I cheered with delight "I'll light you on fire, So you're out of my sight" Edited December 7, 2022 by brickvoyeur 15 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tractorboy Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 I was thinking the same thing. Well mine wasn't even the cheapest listing on ebay EU, but it was an Irish buyer, so maybe he just felt happier buying local. I don't get very many Irish buyers. I'll hold on to the few I have left a little longer, though I don't see it reaching any great heights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree...I honestly don't think it's going much higher than it's at now. Although the US sales data seems to hint otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrickLegacy Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Flipped a couple Haunted Houses. These were overflow stock that I had no room for. The wife was very pleased with the immediate profit. Sometimes you don't have to win the deal. Making the wife happy was a huge score. This past week I also sold a T-Rex Hunter, Constitution Train Chase and Holiday Promo (1 of 2) on BrickLink. Locally, I sold another Star Wars lot including an opened Jabba's Palace. I wanted to dump some Kmart Special Battle Packs and a Republic Gunship so I priced these all to move. At the end of the day, I was very happy to clear up some more shelf space.

jeff_14 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Just sold another 3 calendars in the space of an hour off Criagslist. They're all gone. I've had more sales from there today than I usually have in a month. And I didn't even change my ads. I got a very lovely email from one mom who had already bought Friends calendars for her girls and then had a very upset little boy without a calendar for himself. Apparently I "saved Christmas". I'm having an Ebenezer Scrooge Christmas morning moment here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
