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...

micbelt Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Sold 4 more 75909 Mclaren Speed Champions at $62.50 each on Fba, buy-in of $11 each. Have 1 left when I should have 2, looks like I have to chat with seller support to find it. Also, I will count these as sales for now. Amazon reimbursed me for losing 3x 76031 Hulkbuster Smash. The gave me the equivalent of $71 each, netting $56 each after fees. My buy-in was $18 each. Could have sold them for a little more but can’t really do anything about it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HandyHand Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Sold a 75150 A-Wing vs Vader's TIE Fighter with some profit. Good riddance of that overpriced ****. Bought by a Bricklink reseller by the way. Does he really think he can make money on it? Also sold a 60095 Deep Sea Exploration Vessel for 2x buy-in. Apparently while this set is still quite easily obtainable at RRP in Europe supply in USA/Canada has dried up. Shipping to Canada was 1/3rd of the total amount the buyer had to pay!

I bought and sold 2 of those ships here in Canada back before Christmas. I got them from the one place I’ve seen them over the past 6 months and at a discount to boot so I also sold them for twice what I paid. Shipping was cheaper obviously.

Popular Post terrymc4677 Posted March 30, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 30, 2018 March 30, 2018. This is a date that will forever be remembered. I can get a little emotional at times. As an adult, there are a few instances when I've shed a tear. I cried when my son was born. I cried again a year later when my daughter was born. I cried tears of joy when my beloved Green Bay Packers won Super Bowl 31 after three decades of mediocrity, and again when they won Super Bowl 45. The last time I cried was two years ago this April when my Mom passed away. March 30, 2018. Today is another day that I've sobbed like a baby. Upon waking up for work, I checked my phone like I always do. Waiting for me was a PayPal notification. A large one. I checked my Bricklink account, and it appears that some blessed soul has decided that they needed some Steam Rollers in their life. Yes, some Steam Rollers. All of them. 27 to be exact. Gone. Purchased by an unknown person. A risk taker. A gambler. A guardian angel, perhaps? I began this saga with over 50 of those Steam Rollers. I'd sell one here, one there through multiple platforms, slowly chipping away at that number. I whittled it down to 27. Now I have 0. They are gone. The purchase price was just a shade over $1k. I'll make a few bucks on each one after the usual fees and shipping, but that's not the point in this circumstance. The nightmare is finally over. March 30, 2018 is my Independance Day. 67 5 9 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val-E Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 (edited) I thought I heard a roar in the distance. Just be sure not to cry too hard till the 180 day paypal chargeback period has expired. Meanwhile, you could make an extra buck or 2 in referral fees by selling the buyer´s contact details to a psychiatrist.

I think that you should have saved one Steamroller so that it could always look at you, mockingly, until one really bad day in the far future when you simply take a sledge hammer to it.
