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...
exciter1 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I had a complete set of new MC on ebay for $440 plus shipping for 2 weeks and no one bit. Had over 100 views and 2 watchers but that's it. So last night I opened it up and split it all up and listed them all separate. Within 3 hours all sold except Ender Dragon for $410 in combined sales plus shipping for each. All I have left of MC are two 21117. Looks like I might be holding those two for a while, but not bad considering I started off with 10 21113, 6 21114, 8 21115, 6 21116, 2 21117, 2 21118. In hindsight I should have got more 21118. My last one went for $16 plus shipping. Wow! $16 is a deal! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legodelorean Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I sold a Grand Emporium on Craigslist for $220. No problems at all and the dude was super nice! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randrace Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 If it makes you feel any better they haven't moved at $80. I was the first search result on ebay off and on for almost a week, that always helps. It's funny though, I was at $75 and the one directly below mine was at $70. Mine sold. I love this. It really pays to have a good rep on EBay. If you can get in the first three listings in a 'best match' search, you are set to sell.

sflv Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Sold 2 sets of the 4 MC Microworlds for $179 shipped each. I had no idea these crept up so fast and decided might as well flip these as I can replenish my stock next year. Pays off to build these up with discounts throughout the year.

adewar Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Not today exactly, but this season - - Last Unimog - $325 - fba (it took days in the 'buy box' just to move one of these, sold all 5 of mine this season) - Last Technic copter - $135 - fba - Last 41999 - $385 - Ebay (4 of my last 5 went international) - Rovers - a lot at $117 - fba (probably too soon, keeping my last 5) - Sopwith camel - $190 - fba - Winter Village Cottage - $249 - fba - MC The Mine (1 day too soon) - $190 - fba - My last set of 4 micro mc sets - $175 (a few days ago, I thought the new ones would make everyone forget about these, but doesn't seem to be the case) - A lot of White Houses at $72-ish (my 2nd and Charles haul) - last Burj - $75 - last Kingdoms Chess - $165 - fba - Two face chase - $125 - fba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adewar Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 (edited) Dumped all but 2 of my Batwing Battle and Dock Ock Ambush in the mid-50s (had about 15 of each), marginal profit - didn't see much reason to hold them. Oh, and I sold all of my Battle of Hoth sets - fba - last one for ~$97. I was surprised how well these did, especially compared to Hoth Echo Base.

Alpinemaps Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 - last Kingdoms Chess - $165 - fba Wow! Fantastic. Definitely not what I was getting late last month - but that might explain why they moved so quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sroster Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Sold two arctic icebreakers yesterday $188.95 each. That's the on topic part. Now is the off-topic part. Paypal locked my account to get my soc sec # for tax purposes. Fine and dandy, I did it and done. But it was locked when those BINs happened. I emailed them and apologized and said I'm good to go now, go ahead and pay. No response. Sent an invoice last night. No response. Sent them both emails again today. No response. Really sucks because I could be selling these icebreakers to someone else if they don't want them (price is pushing $200 now). I don't want to wait too long and miss the Xmas window! How long should I give these peeps and what is my recourse with ebay? Takes awhile to deal with all that doesn't it? I guess I won't have time no matter what to find other buyers.

I think they might be sold out for good with all the new sets that just came out. Edited December 16, 2014 by zskid00 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Contact buyer directly and initiate non-paying bidder with eBay now. You have to wait a minimum time before escalating, but you'll miss the window (what is it, four days?). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holleman67 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 You have to wait to process the non-paying buyers. I think 4 business days and then it's another r 4 business days after the filing to release the funds back to you. Look at their information on the shipping page and sometimes it includes a phone number. I'm not above making a personal call to them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sflv Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Seems pretty amazing to me that such a popular set is going away, the MC microworlds still sell well. I guess I need to keep the rest of my stock for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
