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...

j.hermit Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Just had someone raid my "sets w/o minifigures" section of my Ebay store; he picked up 14 fig-less sets for a grand total of $207. Packaged weight of 17lbs, shipped FedEx for $18.62. Yesterday, I had someone grab all six of my Shock Troopers from 75046 at $14 apiece. The day before that, I had someone buy 9 minifigs for $95. I've had a good amount of small sales the last few days too. I'm overjoyed, since April sales have been killing me. I've made more in the last two days than I did in the two weeks before that. The guy who bought the instant Lego part collection (just add water) was a really cool guy. He said that he and both his sons were big Star Wars nerds; they planned to leave the Star Wars sets intact, then use the parts from the other sets to add to their Star Wars environments/backdrops. I've always been a free builder, so it makes me happy when I know that my items are being worked into someone's grand plan. And of course it's always cool to see parents that are building along with the kids. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TabbyBoy Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Why do you not save it for the holiday premium buying season? The space that two of them take up mean I can't buy another Grand Emporium. I did sell one for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenbart Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 According to brickset the 7888 was only available for about 6 months - is that correct?? Yep, this set was one of the end of the wave sets, EOW sets can be big money makers, to most people, they already had a joker and batman mini figure, a batmobile or were now interested in something else, then the interest is regained, its the set a lot of people need to complete their collection, in fact it was th biggest EOW set as the AA and batcave were it in 2006, this was around the second half of 2008.

terrymc4677 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Heartlake stables for $80 shipped, fangpyre truck ambush for $80 shipped, and another wolverine chopper for $62 shipped. All were sealed. After all fees I cleared $80 profit total. eBay sales seem to be coming in spurts lately. I haven't sold anything since last Wednesday, then all of a sudden these three sets on a random Monday afternoon. Strange... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbacunn Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Set of Simpsons minifigs. I have two full sealed complete sets. I am willing to sell one but I want to see what happens when the Simpsons episode airs this Sunday. I could see these getting scarce and the price going way up at least temporarily if it plays out right.

terrymc4677 Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 Is that a John Deere you're on, Terry? Lol...nope. That was taken last summer during the Walmart clearance. I had foot surgery the day before, but still went out picking. My wife thought I was nuts (and that I looked stupid on the "old person" cart) so she took a picture. The doctor said to stay off of my feet for at least two weeks, so by riding the cart I was still technically following his orders. I couldn't let a surgery keep me away from the deals you were all reporting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may pull the other auctions I have going, and wait until the episode airs to see how it goes. On the flip side, there will be a lot more sets out there in a couple more days.
