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"

Nice price on the FW. I would have had a meal out with the proceeds rather than reinvesting in those ones though - they won´t make the same returns.

Nah.  I have more fallingwaters, and by the time is said and done they will bring in 140 to 200% profit.  I think the Tower Bridge will do fine. Even if it doubles, i'll have turned 80 into 450 in a few years time.

3 of my 4 Star Wars Phantoms for $75 CDN each in the last few weeks. Doubled my money on these after only 4 months. Raised the price on the last one by $10.

One Olaf polybag for $20. Paid $5 and will make $15 profit after fees and shipping and shipping credit. Let it go, let it go........

Also sold my only 7848 Toys R Us Truck yesterday for $135 CDN. Paid $45 3 years ago. I was debating whether or not to open this now that my modular/city display is growing. Might have to buy the open and used one from my son's friend now. I can afford a fair used price after selling the new one for 3 times what I paid.

6862 is going for a decent price now FBA.  I sold too early.

Man I may have to start selling mine off.. That is the number I had for Christmas! (Well $250 plus shipping).. I seem to have underestimated the power of the Dark Side. Good Goood!

You're on a roll.

I capitulated and sold my one of two 10188 sets today.  Local buyer for $620 CAD.  Not a big profit, but my buy in was low and all this talk of the new set being a rehash of 10188 spooked me.  I started off just into building and collecting....but the buying part became fun and addictive due to the hunt for deals lol.  I'm undecided about opening and build my last 10188.  I honestly think the set is mediocre.

Finally a 853373 Kingdoms Chess sets for £80. I've been trying to get rid of this for a year. This set has been a disappointment in terms of resaleability. 

Do I buy any of the Pirates chess sets?

[TigerEyez]

Atlantis Guardian of the Deep $8. Part of a big used lot I bought.

Jammy sod! I sold my last 2 Kingdoms Chess sets at a small loss once postage and fees are taken into account. I wish I sold them 2 years ago when they were worth more.

Pirates chess sets? No way for me unless >50% off ;-)

To be honest, I've not paid over half RRP for anything recently.

[Yellowtot]

I got lucky really, and randomly noticed about 12 months ago that the going price on Amazon was like £115, I didn't buy many, think I had 4, but unloaded them all then and there. I have bought 5 Pirate chess sets though just in case a similar trend happens. If it doesn't its one of those things.

[Dark Helmet]

I wish I bought more kingdoms chess sets. The have been going for $150 on Amazon consitintly. If the pirate set retired last year when the rest of the line did I would have high hopes for it but I'm questioning it now

[CNH1974]

I've just done a price check on 40158 Pirates Chess Ebay BIN price is £40-55 but it seems to be a VERY slow seller. So I may give it a miss, plenty of other sets at that price point that are more popular.

Getting back on topic, todays vintage sales are:

6880-1 [Surface Explorer (1982)]     £16
6881-1 [Lunar Rocket Launcher (1984)] £15
6842-1 [Small Space Shuttle Craft (1981)] £5
6824-1 [Space Dart I (1984)]  £9
6844-1 [Sismobile (1983)]       £7

Me? I wouldn't. That set has been on sale on LEGO Shop at Home for something like 6 months now. It is not moving at all, imo. I'd avoid.

What is this chess you speak of?
