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...
Sozial Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I think demand might be up, since the Haunted House is skyrocketing the way it is. Vampyre Castle will be a good option for those who can't afford the big daddy. If that would happen,I would be enlighted. Over here the price is about 175 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And those who think they are buying the HH when actually they are getting a VC. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

legodelorean Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 70503 - Golden Dragon for $45 on ebay Was that including shipping? I have a Golden Dragon I'd like to unload.

weakside Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 853373 Kingdom's Chess Set for 80 euro cash. Love this set...saved one unopened for my collection. Great value for retail price and sold very well/quickly in CAN after cleared out from stores. I don't like the new chess set as much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sozial Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 OK, I was sticking to my price point and I declared I wouldn't sell a 9468 - Vampyre Castle for less than $200. Well, I just sold one for $200 on EBay. Join me, raise your prices folks!!! Well I looked the set up on Amazon.com and there are many sets between 150-200$. I just think you were lucky with that sale from a clueless buyer. So it will take more time to reach 200$ 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it will take more time to reach 200$ I agree, it was a little early, but there really is no reason to list these below $200, unless you need the capital. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diablo2112 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Sold off most of my Craigslist lot from 2 weeks ago ($200 original purchase price); another sale on eBay today. All were built, no box or instructions. Prices don't include shipping, which was charged at cost. Here's the breakdown: 42006 Excavator (with power functions) $99 8547 Mindstorms NXT 2.0 $189 4505 Millenium Falcon $119 9398 Crawler $160 7676 Republic Gunship (missing 2 minifigs, some parts substituted) $50 8043 Excavator $289 (pending) 9786 Mindstorms RCX $60 (pending) misc unbuilt parts in bulk $40 - (traded for credit at local toy store) Total: $1006 Decent gain from the original $200 purchase, but not spectacular. I undercut prices a bit just to move the lot. The best part was sorting, identifying, and building the various kits. I love that part!

labfreak7 Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 Congrats. I actually hate the sorting and building. I like the buying and selling part lol. Takes a special kind of person to appreciate that aspect. I guess I don't have the patience. ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
