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...
oneknightr Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Helping out a good friend who just got into modulars hard. Selling him a sealed Town Hall for $500 which I feel is a fair price for him and me although it pains me to think about the loss of potential future gains. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reinvest that $500 properly and you can make better future gains. And you get good karma for helping a friend. We call that a twofer! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelgazra Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Finally got rid of my last Kai Drifter polybag that I got with promos this time last year... $9. Recently sold a pair of Mr. Freeze at $20 each, two May 4th Stormies at $20 each, a 7144 Slave 1 (missing Bobba) for $65, and a complete 6195 Neptune Discovery Lab for $150. Promo $0 polys obviously, and the two sets cost me maybe $20 in replacement parts buy-in, originally from personal collection. Puts a nice chunk towards a Big Ben purchase I think! All prices including shipping. Was quite pleased with the last one as it went for nearly $50 more than brickpicker or bricklink's price guides! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With new Exosuits listed at $33, and very few "used complete" sets being offered... if you're selling and you haven't built one yet, you might as well unbox it, and build it for fun. Let it hang out on your desk for a couple weeks... pose it... have a little fun with it... then box it back up again and sell it. Your opportunity cost making it "used" vs. new is about $3. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c_rpg Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Sold one 4431 Ambulance for about 40€ I bought this set because there is no ambulance in the current City lineup. It has nice minifigs, but there's quite a lot of stickers in this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenxxx Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Sold 2 NISB 21109 ExoSuits on eBay $33 ea, free shipping (wrapped in shipping paper only - per my listing - shipped 1st class at 15.5 oz). Lucky for me, when I first bought them, I was just starting out, and I only bought a couple. One of my first Brickpicker "hot tip" buys, about 97 weeks in inventory, now pretty much break-even on the sale (only because I used about $20 in VIP points to buy on one of them). Still, the feeling of having no more 21109 in inventory ... priceless 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyHand Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 (edited) Sold one of my 75055 ISD (MISB) through Marktplaats for €175 cash in hand. Buy-in was €107. (And selling for nett €175 on Marktplaats is about the same as selling for €200 through eBay. Plus they come to pick it up at my door, so I don't have to worry about sending the parcel and getting it damaged along the way. ) Edited May 31, 2016 by Haay 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
