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
California92563 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Many on here will call me crazy, but when I found that Simpsons House at Target the first thing I did once I got home was cut the seals and verify it. I've sold plenty of "open box, sealed bag" sets for 98%-100% of the sealed box rate. I would rather take a 2% hit than ship out a box like Trek found to a buyer. I don't think your crazy because I think you should build it 1 Quote
terrymc4677 Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 Funny, someone just bailed me out as well and bought all of my 9450's on bricklink. I didn't make much on them either, but I'm happy to get them out of my house. My buyer asked me to ship without the boxes, so it appears mine will be parted out. If anyone else is having buyers remorse on this set get them on bricklink at a reasonable price and you may be able to off load them in one shot. 1 Quote

I have seen many listings on ebay where they open the box and show the (contents) bags of the set. I would prefer to take good pics of box seals than crack open boxes. I hope we never have to start selling that way. Quote

I would prefer to take good pics of box seals than crack open boxes. I hope we never have to start selling that way. I only do it in situations like I stated, where I know something was returned or if something about the box seems "off". Quote

Darth_Raichu Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Sold the last 3 of my Kingdoms Chess sets for $130 each. The end of an era. It is going to be weird not to have any chess set in my inventory. 2 Quote

Ciglione Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 Wow, really ? I knew this had retired in EU far longer than US. I would have thought it would be easier sell in Europe No... I thought it was the other way around. It was retired already in the US. Here it retired somewhere in the first quarter of 2014. Quote
