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 75055 Imp Star Destroyer for $385 CDN on Amazon. Only listed it the day before. This was the last of the 3 I bought for 50% off on Boxing Day 2014 at Walmart. I wish I'd held on to the other 2 a little longer. I "only" doubled my money on those. May invest the proceeds in some Brick Bountys I saw the other day. Those have already been appreciating nicely.

So I'm confused on how 75055 could sell at $385? Is that US dollars? I see plenty new in sealed boxes from great sellers around $200. How did you get double what most other sellers are getting.

Even the currency difference doesn't explain that much of a gap. In my opinion there's just less competition up here and so less supply, which means prices can go higher, especially on Amazon. In my case, I have a 100% rating and have been selling for a year now so I think that helps reassure those who are plunking down big bucks. I just sold an AT-AT for $280 CDN last night. I bought it at the same time as the Star Destroyer. Got 3 of each set plus 3 of the Benny Spaceship for half price at Walmart 2 Boxing Days ago and just have the 1 ATAT left. Really wish I'd gotten more.

I realized I was in a buying frenzy, I chickened out on long term hold, sold 10x bricktober TRU for $12.99 ea. Still made some quick money and have 2x more airjitzus in the pile (all to same buyer)

[redghostx]

2015 Bricktober set for $62.50US after shipping and fees - probably to another seller.  Thanks to TRU Canada for the (almost) free $100 sets.

Other recent sales are boring although the 60052 Cargo Train parting out is working fine.  I am taking in $128-130US after fees and have kept all of the switch track, straight track, cow cars (for use or future sale), and all of the cargo docks.    Pretty good for a $95-102 buy in plus it helps keep the metrics up for the top rated discount for the 2016 fall/Christmas season.

I assume that was all 4 and not just one.

10702 Classic Creative $27 + 7 shipping. Buy in was $20 bucks. I thought I saw these on Amazon for about 29. Can't quite put a finger on what people will buy.

Sold 3x Iron Patriot/Gun Mounting Rack on BL for $29.99 each - all to same buyer. Not bad for a freebie.

[TacoCat]

Superman Man Of Steel Bundle: 76002 Metropolis Showdown, 76003 Battle of Smallville, & 76009 Black Zero Escape - $89.99 on eBay. Plus the buyer paid shipping to Canada. I'm a little shocked these sold above MSRP! A decent profit too considering my buy-in for the lot was around $30.

[BrickLegacy]

Sold one of the first sets I ever bought: Coast Guard Patrol 60014.  Buy-in was $52 on 10/29/13, sold for $100 shipped on eBay.  

Some other recent sales:

Town Hall $545

Jabba's Palace $180

Power Armor Lex $25

(all eBay, prices include shipping)

[steelmelt]

eBay this week: Police patrol 60045, got it for about 30, sold for 72... and a UCS B wing for 310 (got it for 100)....  Both had buyer paid shipping.  

 

The police patrol was one that is a great sleeper city set like the logging truck and last ambulance.  

[jeff_14]

Sold a mixed bag of polybags to a local fellow off Craigslist - Iron Man drone, Umbaran MHC, Fall Scene, and my last 2 Lego Movie Police Enforcers for $55 CDN total. Paid less than half that for these. 

Also sold another Raptor Escape on Amazon for $100 CDN before shipping. This set has been great. I got 15 back in October at MSRP but with bricktober sets as a bonus, and I've sold about one per week since the start of the year on Amazon. At the same time I got the notice last night, someone emailed me about the set off Craigslist and said he could do $60. I just laughed and deleted that. Only 4 left. I'm going to miss this set when it's gone. 

[Brickerbrack]

Sold my last Republic Gunship for $220 + Shipping on eBay.  I know I probably could have made more if I waited a little longer, but that huge pile of Santa Workshops has been killing me.  I needed the cash flow.

[Sprocket77]

The Lonely Mountain with a small tear for €150 cash, buy in was €50 last July.

Architecture Sydney Opera house for €110 plus shipping on ebay, buy in was €43 2 months ago.

[MarleyMoose]

Sold a lot of 30 lbs of used LEGO no minis or booklets for $220 + shipping. It was most of a lot I picked up Monday for $60. I sorted out non LEGO.  I have a few SW minifigures, many baseplates and a few more lbs to sell from it too. Not a bad flip in under a week. 

[donbee]

I sold a 44017 Stormer for $40 that I won on auction for $12.30.

I wondering if they're building a batpod.

[MinifigW]
