Popular Post brickvoyeur Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post 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
Kenxxx Posted December 27, 2014 Posted December 27, 2014 Sold an AA 10937 on ebay for $285 plus shipping. This was my first sale of a big exclusive... about 60% net ROI on an 80-day investment. I didn't really want to sell this so soon, but I have others I'm holding... it was political... sometimes I need to show my dear spouse that all those Lego in the spare room are actually paying rent and not just taking up space. 2 Quote

mudcatsfan Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Since Christmas day, a lot of LotR / Hobbit. Perhaps the faithful will be rewarded. Do you mind sharing which sets and pricepoints? I'll do my own search, but just curious. Quote
DadsAFOL Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Sold 2x Trevi Fountain at $80 ea on AMZN. Surprised these went OOS and jumped that much so quickly. Bought in at $38 with TRU coupon & CC day, so cleared $20+ profit each after fees and shipping. Also sold a Mirkwood Spiders for $48.88. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Sold Kingdoms Chess set for $120 at eBay (yay).. lost the profit+more to a speeding ticket (boo) :D Quote
Alpinemaps Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Sometimes, you have to sell for political reasons. Sold a SSD 10221 for $725. Long story: Managed to get a couple of SSDs last month, below RRP. I had to spend some political captial with the wife to make the transaction happen. Since these were taking me over my target number of SSDs, wife insisted that I try to flip one before the end of the year. I agreed to it, and it sold last night. Once she heard what we cleared, after taxes/fees, she was a little disappointed (which is a good thing). It reminded her why we're holding onto to some of these sets. So, I politically won the battle, cleared over $200 for holding onto an SSD for a month, and everyone's happy (more or less). 7 Quote

jaisonline Posted December 30, 2014 Posted December 30, 2014 I sold several in December at $45. Why not offer suggestions or information why you think your sets sold @ $45 while other's did not? 1 Quote
