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...

How can someone think of paying $134 for the Creative Tower 10664, when they can get a box 6% smaller for $85? I have half a mind to list my 10697's in the 10664 listing, with the Condition Note: "This is really Lego set 10697, but I'm including a baggie of 100 extra pieces so you can pay $49 more." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea, I thought 10664 would go down, so I dumped my remaining before Black Friday. Guess NOT! I can't explain why 6166 goes for $130 either??? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justapilgrim Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Well, my creative suitcase I sold a few weeks ago on amazon got a return request "lower price, $30 WM 1500 pieces". Why selling on ebay does have its perks Series 5 mixels $69 shipped, no clue why so high 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbacunn Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 Well, my creative suitcase I sold a few weeks ago on amazon got a return request "lower price, $30 WM 1500 pieces". Why selling on ebay does have its perks Series 5 mixels $69 shipped, no clue why so high Had a Amazon buyer threaten to return a Decorating the Tree polybag because it didn't come in a box and the pieces were so old that the white pieces were yellowed. I politely told her that it was sold in a bag and the set was only two years old so it would be impossible for the pieces to be yellowed by age. Didn't hear back from her and she didn't return it. Lots of BS to deal with selling on Amazon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of BS to deal with selling on Amazon. That's okay. I logged in to Amazon this morning and find that I have a nice, new, shiny negative feedback. The buyer writes that I didn't pay the full postage amount and he had to go to the post office at an inconvenient time to pay the difference and get his package. That's odd since you know, I shipped the item in a USPS flat rate package and purchased the label through Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahler24 Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Sold my used 9465 zombies with box for 144 euros.......have 1 mint zombies left. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seal Cutter Posted December 13, 2015 Share Posted December 13, 2015 Weirdly nothing today, after 62 consecutive days of sales, netting a good profit. Waiting for the panic buyers who want everything shipped express in the next few days, hopefully. If not, hey ho, nothing lost 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome set, hate to see it go. Complete with box? I bought a pair of these for $350 (used, both with boxes and instructions) early last year. Might be time to dust one off and list it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loghamel Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 CL is heating up for me. I'm guessing it's only going to get busier once the shipping times get too long for Christmas delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't sold a one. I refuse to sell them for less than $70. I have plenty of room to store them. Oh, and there's this: " I went to a Tulsa Walmart, and found a 30boxes left over from blackfriday so I picked them all up for $33.59 out the door, So I will sell 15 of them for $35.00, the rest of them I'm keeping till someone else makes a listing, for some crazy amount, and I will under cut them lol. (I will not sell you more then one set, I dont want you to resell it) " http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/tag/5355132155.html But again, I don't mind. I saw what the tower was selling for all of this year after the holidays. It's a great deal, even at $100. That's only 6.7 cents a brick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I guess they would reconsider reselling for higher after they get about 100 offers from fellow BPs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will give that up quick once they start getting hounded by the loonies on CL. Between the crazy meet ups and the "would you take $10 for it" they aren't going to have any fun. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
