What Lego set did you sell today and for how much?

[brickvoyeur]

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"

Sold a mine craft set and chrome 3po mini figure

Can you tell me how much the good c3po was and if it was sealed in the baggy? My last 2 sealed ones sold for $405 and $390

I have a chance to buy 3 for a quick flip.

6 Dolphin Cruisers (yesterday)

[mollyseven]

This week I sold

Harry Potter Chamber of winged key, and the Sorting hat and the Forbidden Forest sets all new in box.

The retired Ambulance and last night I sold the retired Police Station.

I got 43-48% profit on each of these so I am happy...can't get that at a bank....all on Kijiji so no delivery/fees/etc, love that!!

 

I have a couple Mission to Mars and Mars Rovers I am trying to sell without luck so far, might have to ebay those.

 

[Huskers1236]

Sold City Farm Harvester for $200 and Tractor for $33.  Don't think I made much on these as I bought them last year to build and never did.  Needing more capital, though as the Amazon bills are going to be coming in soon.

i didn't see a price you sold them for.  your replies above are empty.

My Craigslist listings have been picking up with the holiday season here. Today I sold a wampa cave for $60 (paid $37), and a republic star fighter for $40 (paid $17.50). Not huge deals by any means, but NO FEES OR SHIPPING!! YAY! Pure profit after cost. I wish I would get more bites off of Craigslist than I do. For every 30 sales I make on eBay I get 1 off of Craig's. Oh well.

[exciter1]

Just finished building the 100% complete w/ box Queen Anne's Revenge (4185) I picked up for $40.  This should be a "what LEGO do I want to sell?" thread.  My son told me to flip it and get him an AT-TE and Republic Gunship.  Of course, now after he sees it put together, he wants me to keep it.  What to do? What to do?

 

I already have a couple AT-TE and Republic Gunship packed away after Black Friday, but he doesn't need to know that.

I am taking Emazer's advice and pre-boxing all my lego from now on.  Sold 19 (mostly large) sets in last 24 hours and it sucks! Finding boxes, packing and addressing.  I use all recycled materials, which is cheap and eco-friendly---but very hard finding the exact box I need in Mt. Box---down in my basement.  I can't believe  how fast things are selling.   I am a long termer....but decided to "flip"  a bunch of things that I bought cheap, and can replace easy in 6 months.

 

We needed the space for our Christmas tree!

 

Top tip....most of you probably know this, but I didn't and just  learned today.  Usps will pick up your packages as long as one is priority.  I always thought they all had to be.  Wish I knew that before.   Scheduled pick up online...much easier than lugging all these things to the post office.

Here's the solution:

 

Keep the QAR

Buy AT-TE tomorrow

Buy Rep. Gunship the day AFTER tomorrow....(if we are still alive)

Yeah pre-boxing is awesome - definitely helps and you can stack things easier as well.

 

I wish every month was december - things sell a lot quicker. lol

Make sure you have your snow suit on.

I was about to type the same. This is an easy one to answer. Keep a cool looking set that prob won't ever be refreshed or keep 2 newer Star Wars rehashes. "That was easy"

I use to use FedEx and UPS daily for pickups (selling on stubhub). Doesn't UPS charge a fee for pickups (regardless how many items)? I know FedEx doesn't as long as 1 package is Express.

Update : Ignore. You typed USPS. Yes, USPS is great for free pickups.

Used Market Street

[jaisonline]

REWIND one sale. I just had my first bricklink non-payer. My never opened (sealed peeled away) 6211 sold for $275. Well the Canadian hoser never paid. Dang. On the same day, I had a non-payer on eBay for my iPhone 5. At least the iPhone 5 was quickly resold. The 6211 not so quick.
