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...

donbee Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I sold my lone DD couch for $23 on BL this week. The box was pretty smashed. Bought it for $10, so I'm content. But I probably should've held out a little longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very lucky mate, it could easily have been a big loss. I'm now struggling to get RRP for the rest of my Red 5 X-Wings, no more Star Wars for me - too hoarded!

Do most SW fans now have turds for brains or what? I think it's just down to the number of UCS sets that have been available at retail this year. There have been 6 sets available for people to buy before they start looking at back catalog. Interestingly I'd say the biggest growth UCS set this year is 10227 which as i understand it was classed as a bit of a dog investment wise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just so grateful that I bought a load of SSDs for £269 off Amazon when I had the chance. These I'm hanging on to these as £1000 each is not too far off and they'll pay for my entire inventory! - maybe in 2yrs? I sold my B-Wing at cost to a fellow BP member who I think flipped it for a good profit. Were in a "Flipping Era" at the moment so that's my main focus until LEGO stop producing a stupid amount of different sets. This will bite them hard if they don't consolidate a bit.

Well done on the 75902, I was thinking of offloading my stash but, I think it's got more climbing to do yet. BTW, I wouldn't have the same eBay/BP IDs ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Does anyone think Scooby doo is rising because it's December and will most likely fall in new year? I think it's way to early to sell and has got lots of movement to go up, but not sure if this set will spike by say Xmas, then just hover by 1-5% difference until next Xmas.
