What Lego set did you sell today and for how much?

[brickvoyeur]

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"

I’ve sold a couple Pat Shops as well. It’s been amazing getting rid of dead weight.

I sold mine last Christmas. I should have waited 5-6 months

Awesome but a bit surprising. You can find the city for right around $500 on the Bay.

I knew that one day the apocalypse was bound to happen - and that all LEGO would inevitably turn to gold.

I refuse to go look, because I ran through my stock a month ago. But I hope I helped continue to drive the price upwards.

I still remember leaving lots of these at $13 on the shelves back in Feb 2014.

not just lego...sold many what I thought was unsellable toys that was sitting listed on amazon for years and they are now gone.  I had a bit of a hard time finding them since there was like 1 or 2 of each... Bakugans, galactic heroes, barbie, angry bird star wars..etc. I also did not change the price to sell.

I can finally contribute to this post.  Sold Simpsons series 1 minifig set for 125 and Disney series 1 for 140.

I have a comic buying problem now.  Figured I should get rid of some of my multiple cmfs sets to help fun my condition. Easier to sell and pack minifigs

We all have one condition or another on this forum. No judgement! LOL.

I sold a Pet Shop for 269.99 CAD less than an hour after posting it today. It seems no one was selling it in my neck of the woods.

That seems on the low side, unless that's your take home price after fees.

NISB Chinese New Years Dinner Set $250 plus ship, on ebay

(I assume Covid Buyer...based on new ebayer since April 2020...16  all positive reviews)

My buy-in was $125 shipped form Korea (took a small gamble on Intl. transaction) over a year ago. I have recently decided to move away from these sets for personal collection...LEGO is producing some really great sets in the various series I like more... so I can't collect them all.

Before fees. This set is difficult to move. I haven't found any listing going for more than 300 CAD. Thank you for your feedback let me know what you think would have been a good listing price.

Which platform did you sell it on? FB marketplace?

eBay mostly. I can't be bothered with meeting people. Especially right now I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Prior to Covid, I always sold in the US domestically, so it's a slightly unfair comparison but I calculated that the US selling price, shipped, is what I received after fees in Canadian.
Thus if pet shop is selling for $300 US right now, I would list my pet shop at whatever nets me $300 CDN after fees. I don't know your region of the country so shipping might be cheap or not. I would do the same on local market places.

Sold a Palace Cinema where the box had major dents and creases for $250 to a local repeat buyer. They bought sealed Brick Bank and Grand Emporium sets from me last month, finished them, and wanted another set to build. 

They've previously asked about my prices for Pet Shop and Detective's Office. I'm hoping they'll contact me again after they're done building the Cinema.

Ninjago Destiny's Bounty 70618: Open Box sealed inner bags: offer $235 + Shipping; ebay ($15 below BIN)

Buy-in was $120 last year. This set is bound to be a classic "ship" ($300-$400) maybe the rarified air of ships commanding $500-$700...some day...but can't hold on to everything
