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...

I just found one sitting on a shelf at Wal-mart yesterday. Did a sweep behind various other sets just in case there were more. Sold 3 of my last 4 Raptor Escapes over the weekend for $100 CDN each on Amazon (or about $80 after fees and shipping). Got these as part of Bricktober so if you account for the value of the freebies I consider these to be a 100% return in 6 months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete411 Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Is it time to start a, "What did you not sell at any price today?" thread? I figured that Ninjago Airjitzu Flyers were going to flood the market since the TRU giveaway, but wow. I can't give these things away. I think I found my Toys for Tots donation for this year!

BrickLegacy Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Speaking of donations, we helped our school with a fundraiser towards the American Cancer Society. It always feels good to give back. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil B Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 My first, unplanned, foray into vehicle/minifig part-outs: After buying a 75102 Poe's X-Wing from Amazon for $76 shipped, found a better offer a week later from KMart for $63 shipped. Contemplated returning the one from Amazon, but (cheap as I am) didn't want to pay the $7 return shipping. So I split out the 4 minifigs and put them on BrickLink & BrickOwl, and listed the X-Wing as no-box, no-minifigs on EBay during the 40% off sellers' fees promo. Sold all of them within 2 weeks, making $90 after shipping and fees. And since I claimed tax back from Amazon making the original purchase $71, I basically got a 75102 X-Wing for $44 all in. Can still lower that a bit more if I decide to list the box ..... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ma-gic Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Double my money selling a 75139 bought in at €25. Considering how unpopular this set is I'm happy to sell and wait for deals later if I'm to buy in again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it ran over the Easter period, couldn’t tell you exactly, but it applied to items I listed on 27 Mar, 2016. There was a 2.5% discount promo last Sunday as well. You just need to keep an eye out. Edited April 5, 2016 by feed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brickerbrack Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Sold my last original Quinjet for $75 plus shipping. Sold Jabba's sail barge for $120 + shipping. Glad my buy in was really low on both. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You made 20EUR in 16hrs. I assume you had a buyer and then went to purchase the set? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was about to direct your what did I buy question to here a buyer of another set had asked me about it, I was heading to a store where I knew they still had a couple so chanced my arm on a quick flip. Does that make me a QFLL, I feel so unclean now On a related note I love The Lego Movie, I picked up Benny's Spaceships at €50, Sea Cows at €150 and Double Decker Couches at €11.50. It's the theme that keeps on giving (for me) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brenner Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Sold 1x 75055 Imperial Star Destroyer for 179E, no fees. Buy-in 95E. Not bad for a 4 month hold. My remaining 75055 sets (3x) will be stored patiently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarleyMoose Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 13+ lbs of semi sorted Ninjago sets with manuals(24lbs ship weight) but no minifigures for $70 + shipping. Most sets are mostly complete but I'm just happy to get rid of this lot I never should have bought. I'll eventually sell off the figures too. That is 43+ lbs total of bulk gone this week. I'm about to list another 30lbs I got last week that included a LEGO IRIS 6 case work station. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
