Popular Post brickvoyeur Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post Posted December 7, 2022 (edited) Quote I'll read the Nightmare Before Christmas story this year, kids. Expand 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

Zelgazra Posted November 17, 2016 Posted November 17, 2016 Bought a lot of 2001 Harry Potter back last Feb or so, with the plans to move it around Christmas season. Everything was complete with boxes and instructions, very little play time, excellent condition sets and figs. So here we are, and little did I know back then, but we have a new Harry Potter themed film out so the timing is optimal. I paid $400 cash locally for 9 sets. I have not sold the 4712, 4722, or 4706 yet. Since I listed on Monday, sales on ebay have gone nicely: 4723 Diagon Alley Shops - $60 + shipping 4704 Chamber of Winged Keys - $60 + shipping 4702 Final Challenge - $50 + shipping 4705 Snape's Class - $50 + shipping 4735 Slytherin - $40 + shipping 4709 Hogwarts - $340 + shipping Also a couple little used Star Wars sets in between the Harry Potter frenzy: 7115 Gungan Patrol -$25 + shipping 7663 Sith Infiltrator - $37.50 + shipping I had really hoped November sales would pick up. Looks like they have done! 2 Quote

That's WAY over market value and must be a Canadian buyer. Good for you. It always helps when "complete" is actually complete because some of the HP parts and minifigures go for $30-60 Canadian.

Expand I thought it was WAY over market value too, until I did some research. I'm not sure if was improperly reported due to some exclusions last time the brickfolio updated. However, if you check 4709 under sold listings, several have gone at $375ish over the past couple of weeks! I priced low since I was missing the instructions on that one. The fact it sold within 2 days tells me I could've priced higher! Still very satisfied either way, buy-in for that one was $160, so even after fees, I'm basically doubling up! Quote

edgecrusher Posted November 18, 2016 Posted November 18, 2016 Yeah, I just called. Best I could get out of the non-manager I spoke with was a "Yup" when I said "You have the snowglobes, but can't sell them yet and can't tell me you have them right?" Quote
