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...
Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 26 minutes ago, Val-E said: I agree, all he has proved is that there are a limited number of "valued customers" out there who apparently don´t know that Amazon Uk / Asda or Tesco exist and are happy to contribute to the @TabbyBoy pension scheme instead. By the way, if you want to participate in a little investment prediction game based on RRP, send me a PM and I´ll give you details. Only 4 places left. Free-to-play and no prizes as it is a beta test. Sometimes I come across an affluent parent who will pay RRP to get the item now. I now need to sell the effluent to the affluent - the R5!

Guest TabbyBoy Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 11x 10240 Red 5 X-Wing for £2000 cash - they are disappearing fast. No more PMs please as I only have enough now for the BP members who've asked me for some - sorry. You just watch the bar stewards reach £300 next week! ;-( So it looks like I'll make just enough on the pallet of Red 5 X-Wings to pay for lunch on the way back from the warehouse! At least it's not a loss as first feared. 8 minutes ago, blocp13 said: 1 Artic base camp 60036, £89.99 ebay brought for £49.99, 35% profit in less than a year happy with that, one of the first sets I brought. Not bad for a CITY set. £15ish after tax? I've also got a few of those Supply Planes that I keep meaning to sell, I'll stick them on this week.

Kenxxx Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Yeah... I hold the Pet Shops for 2 years, and sell them at break-even, and I'm grateful... thankful that I found buyers who will take them at that price. Sell a couple Arkham Asylums after 2 years for 70% net profit, and I feel like I'm being taken advantage of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegoWalker4 Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 75146 Star Wars Advent calendar. Sold for no profit through a Facebook posting, but very happy anyway because I do not have to eat this one (Lego bricks are not crunchy in milk at all no matter how long you keep them there). Sold to a father for his sons. I do have one for my kids though and they love snow suit Chewbacca! This particular Star Wars set has been a TURD for me and it seems the only one in the past few years that has been a winner is 75056 that has the very lucrative Darth Vader Santa suit minifig and a few other small winners in the set.

This one will be a wonderful performer next year after I get a bunch for $20 after Christmas, as I did with last years and sold this year ~$60. But yes, these were absolute duds for QFing this year. I made ~$13 per City Advent this year flipping them after getting them from TRU during 20% + TRUTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
