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...
biking_tiger Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Yeah... but there's a pink pony bucket replacing it. Maybe it won't matter, but I doubt it will see the growth of the pink castle. I hope I'm wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked up 3 today and sold them all instantly at $65 FBM. Sold others too early... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I'm wrong. errrr.... was not aware of that have to check that one out. the older pink buckets did very well. i think people just like these big containers for something for storage. i'm clearing my stock out at this price and this velocity and moving on. i also sold a super stinker today - Superman Black Zero escape - i had the lowest price on amazon for like the last 8 months and i've sold 2. today i sold one for $22 including shipping. i paid $12 and still will end up eating like $1.50 after fees etc. i should just part this set out - its never going to amount to anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a Friends/Juniors set, Mia's Farm Suitcase. I guess suitcases are the new bucket. Who knows if a suitcase>bucket or Friends>normal minifigs. http://brickset.com/sets/10746-1/Mia-s-Farm-Suitcase Edited November 29, 2016 by biking_tiger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegoWalker4 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 6081 King’s Mountain Fortress on BL for $109 plus $10.25 shipping. I do have one more large castle set I plan to sell, 6074 Black Falcon’s Fortress, which I am very tempted to keep given its very good condition and rarity. Thank you Christmas season!

Just been trying to buy bulk deals from the stores and taking advantage when the few good promos do come around. Lot more opportunities to buy 50-100 of a set at a time at half off now than there was few years ago so will play the retail game aspect of it for now. Amazon gates caused some ebay flooding problems and the ability to get best match as easy this year. Pretty good at getting to the top of most but couldn't do it on some. Some items had over 800 listings which is pretty damn crazy. Just get lost in a sea of listings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cory730 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I believe it has to do with Cyber Monday. Every set has risen because a lot of sellers just sold through their whole stash. I know today was a record day for me. Over 85 lego sets but now my inventory has been depleted like many others probably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
