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...

LegoMan1212 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 (edited) Update on Dimension Packs that I bought 2 weeks ago as most is taken care of and I have slowed down on pushing inventory back out the door. Total Purchase Price was $300 on the head w/ tax which included the following (I think i got it all down there) A. (3) Star Wars StarScavengers $20 each B. (5) PS4 Starter Kits $20 each C. Packs for Marty McFly (2), Dr. Who (5), J. World (4), Scooby Doo (5), M:I (4), Ghostbusters (2), Joker and Harley (3) each sold for $5 each. Cash coming back in consisted of the following: 1. Total Gross Revenue - $268 2. Total Returned to Store - $60 (3 PS4 starter kits) - I just didn't want to hang onto them anymore after selling 2 bundles) 3. Total Inventory on hand still...all the SW sets and 9 Packs = $105 cost So overall, the $300 has become $328 with $105 of inventory remaining. I'm happy with that! I know it's not the 100% ROI that many of you shoot for, but I consider this as Free Lego (after some work) now and believe in the end I should be able to turn that $300 into about $450-$500 after everything is out the door unless I keep some for gifts.

Big risk considering TLG at anytime could go the way of the NFL and ban selling their brand on Amazon. Are you able to partner with someone in your local area (maybe even on this board) who is ungated? It could be the start of a beautiful friendship.

gregpj Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Are you able to partner with someone in your local area (maybe even on this board) who is ungated? It could be the start of a beautiful friendship.This is a good gig if you can find someone. I have done this ... once we established a trusted relationship I have done FBM and sent stuff to FBA for him. In fact, my geographical location generally has better average shipping rates for FBM.I don't think either of us made as much as we would by doing it all ourselves, but I've taken risk by buying and holding the product and he's taking risk for being scammed/feedback/returns. Works for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was the UK... This is only the case if you buy the company (not the business) via a share sale and not an asset sale. However, Amazon may need to be informed of a change in directors and don't have to agree to current terms if they suspect any risk. Personally, I'd tell Amazon to shove it up their arse as there's other way to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tgnmonster Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 So jealous of everyone here that is already using FBA. $2500 LEGO gating fee makes me a sad clown. Do you folks consider this remotely close to worth it? Seems like a large mountain of profit to lose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
