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
legodelorean Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Woah...that's heavy.There's that word again. "Heavy." Why are things so heavy in the future? Is there a problem with the Earth's gravitational pull? 6 Quote
naf Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 It sure was. I prefer to sell on Craigslist although a lot of people hit me up and then never get back to me. People are super flaky on there. If I start having trouble selling sets I'll probably put them up on eBay. I want to avoid fees and shipping costs as much as I can.I've pretty much given up on Craigslist. I've had a bit of success on there, but now all I get are lowball offers. Interestingly, I've had some people local to me ask to pick up their bricklink orders themselves and pay cash, so I've saved on shipping and paypal fees that way. 1 Quote

You are the one with the capability to go to the future, why don't you tell us ? (although it did not make sense why they had to go to the future to fix something that had not happened yet ) 1 Quote

I'm in no rush to sell what I have so I don't mind if it takes a while to sell certain sets. Quote

I'm in no rush to sell what I have so I don't mind if it takes a while to sell certain sets. Lowballing is a frequently applied tactic on CL. My favourite was when someone sent me a screenshot of the 10695 off Walmart's website at US$30 (no shipping and sales tax included, of course, nor was it available), I think, telling me that I should lower my price if I want to sell it. The 5 copies I have sold on CL for US$35 don't necessarily put much credence to her opinion 1 Quote
thoroakenfelder Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 Thank you, sir. I am going to wait until October as well for the other couple of sets I have but for $100 I couldn't pass up the sale.Do you think that the Dimensions mini sets with Marty and Doc minifigures in them are going to negatively impact this set once they hit? 1 Quote

legodelorean Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Do you think that the Dimensions mini sets with Marty and Doc minifigures in them are going to negatively impact this set once they hit?Isn't the Dimensions thing a video game? I tried looking up Dimensions mini sets of Marty and Doc but I didn't find anything. Quote
fuzzy_bricks Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Isn't the Dimensions thing a video game? I tried looking up Dimensions mini sets of Marty and Doc but I didn't find anything. There is a new hairpiece for Doc, you'll dig it the most. http://www.thebrickfan.com/category/lego-dimensions/ 1 Quote
legodelorean Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 There is a new hairpiece for Doc, you'll dig it the most. http://www.thebrickfan.com/category/lego-dimensions/ I don't know if that will hurt the sale of the original minifig. Technically, it's for the dimensions game and not really a solo mini figure. I really don't know if that's going to affect anything or not. It looks pretty cool though and I'll probably end up buying one just because I love Back to the Future. Quote
legodelorean Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 I also wonder how much these fun packs will cost. Does anyone know? Quote
thoroakenfelder Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Isn't the Dimensions thing a video game? I tried looking up Dimensions mini sets of Marty and Doc but I didn't find anything.Yeah, it's the video game there's a BTTF set with Marty, a mini Delorean and a hoverboard, then there's a fun pack with Doc and I forget what.
