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...
BrickLegacy Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 You're pulling us down Smalls.....you're pulling us down.... (see Bold's price)My fees were a little lower than BA's. Besides, I need to pay for the workshop I'm building for Santa before winter sets in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISO8T0 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 My fees were a little lower than BA's. Besides, I need to pay for the workshop I'm building for Santa before winter sets in. Ok, but we'll expect pics of said workshop when completed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exciter1 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I sold the Cafe Corner I bricklinked for $600. It was going to be my personal set but I had enough extra parts & enjoyed it so much I am going to do it again. This set is pretty easy to BL if you don't mind making a few subs. The first set I bricklinked was the GG, I would not suggest doing that one. It sold within 5 hours of posting it on CL. I have a few things I'm Bricklinking right now, but this is on my list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a ballpark of what the pieces cost you? Also, it seems like something like this could turn into analysis paralysis as you try to comparison shop all of the pieces - any recommendations for how to go about tracking down so many pieces?

exciter1 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Yes I'm looking forward to Marcandre's or Exciters' article on .. "How to hack a modular Using BL, CL and other secondary markets" jaisonline Bricklink'd a 10179, now that's an adventure. I'm very close to putting together 1 or 2 custom classic BSG Cylon Raiders that are UCS size, so I'll post some pics when I'm done with that project. The Bat-Pod is on my list too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth_Raichu Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Good thing I sold all of my series 2 Mixels before this batch of undercutters invaded eBay. The complete set is not going to touch $90 range in a very long time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The complete set is not going to touch $90 range in a very long timeIt will be $109 by xmas, looking through listings no one has a lot of stock selling complete sets. When series 6 comes out, there will be another flurry of sales and drain some of the existing supply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be wrong, but I did not have enough of series 2 to justify waiting for xmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huskers1236 Posted September 18, 2015 Author Share Posted September 18, 2015 I had never considered doing something like this but now I'm intrigued. Do you have a ballpark of what the pieces cost you? Also, it seems like something like this could turn into analysis paralysis as you try to comparison shop all of the pieces - any recommendations for how to go about tracking down so many pieces? If you want to PM me or redirect me to another thread feel free Modulars are pretty easy to Bricklink if you don't mind making some substitutions. Cafe Corner has a handful of rare parts but their newer counterparts are relatively cheap. Green Grocer is very expensive to Bricklink correctly because the Sand Green parts are so rare. Doing it in another color(though would it still be "Green" Grocer?) would save a lot of money, I know some folks that have made Market Street in different colors and a few exceptions pretty cheaply. I have BL'd Cafe Corner, UCS Millennium Falcon, and Taj Mahal, all with new, correct pieces. Cost me $400, $900, and $700 respectively. I did the first two 3-4 years ago before some of the part prices got out of hand, Taj Mahal I did 2 years ago. In the end, I'm not sure you save much and it's getting harder to do all the time as others have done the same thing depleting the sources of rare parts. 10189 was by far the easiest to BL, it's just the shear amount of parts that starts to get expensive.

MarleyMoose Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Just sold a used cockpit from UCS 10175 Vader's Tie Advanced for $85 shipped. It's nice to find hidden gems in your mass bulk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpinemaps Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Too many posts about Mixels Series 2, so I'll just give my thoughts instead of quoting everyone.- I was having better success selling them in tribes instead of complete sets. I was making more money that way.- I haven't been looking into complete sets, but if they are selling at $80 now, that explains why I'm not getting bites on my $30 tribes anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newbie77 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 It was around $85 until some people decided to sell for $60-$70 shipped. looks like batch from the asia. so far the asian supply was minimal for S2 but looks like now it has come on the market so i am guessing it will be real long time before that supply dries. S1 asian supply hasn't dried yet. 3 sellers with over 150 cases each. 2 are out and the one particular with over 200+ is still around. may be that one has more for the holiday season who knows....

Kenxxx Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 <Requirement for 25 items sold on Amazon include FBA, or just FBM?... BA replied: bothWait, what? I can sell 25 items on Amazon FBA, and I'm qualified for FBM for the holiday season? That makes no sense. I mean... if it's true, I'm cool with that... but I didn't read it that way. Are you sure?

Bold-Arrow Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Wait, what? I can sell 25 items on Amazon FBA, and I'm qualified for FBM for the holiday season? That makes no sense. I mean... if it's true, I'm cool with that... but I didn't read it that way. Are you sure?I was approved last year to sell in toys solely based on FBA sales .

cory730 Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I was approved last year to sell in toys solely based on FBA sales . i was also wondering this. Is does not state that. I sell 25 items a day FBA so would lie to know. Even though i dont recommend merchant fullfilled. It comes in handy in super duper quick flip item .
