Traded my last 10224 Town Hall, poly VW Bus and a poly Mini for a 10212 Imperial Shuttle.
I’ve been wanting this set since I started this thing. 

10212 is a white whale of mine. I’ve built 10224. It’s only okay IMO. I think it was a good trade. Congrats!

75279 Lego Star Wars Advent Calendar 2020. Found a few in a book store in the morning for 15€ (50% off), sold almost immediately für 40€ cash. My quickest quick flip ever. I wonder what these will sell for next year.

Sold through a healthy stack of 41329 Olivia's Deluxe Bedroom at $50 FBA over the last few days. 3x RRP and more ($15 set).

Also marks me passing 200% lifetime ROI on all my LEGO sales (3000+ sets sold and counting). Nice hobby :)

That is crazy high - I'm around 135% over a pretty long lifetime (which I believe is extremely high). Do you sell the dogs, or are you holding onto the sets that haven't appreciated yet?

I thought I might have recalled him mentioning something that benefitted his ROI early on (2 years ago maybe), but I wasn't sure if I was remembering who the correct poster was.

My final KMart tally was $14k+ of LEGO for $2.5k, basically an average of 82% off. That, and the fact that I somehow also managed to pick quite a few winners amongst those definitely help. But my non-KMart investments are doing pretty good too.

My other Olivia's sets just started moving as well on FBA ... 41307 Olivia's Creative Lab for $50, that's 5xRRP. Talking about winners :)

Before COVID hit there was a store by me that had a wall of the superhero girls high school on discount. Finally got back there last week and they still had 8 so I got them all plus all their Harry Potter Aragon sets (I’d already sold 4 of these for 4 times what I paid) and just now sold one of the high schools already for twice what I paid.

That is a tough question, that depends on available storage space and expected appreciation vs other sets.

I sell the dogs 2 years after EOL regardless of the price, most of the time the seller rank is really bad and you have to price 20-30% below going price to move some numbers.

Hope it helps.

I just sold 10212 last night for $550.00.  That was one of my favorite all time Lego sets to build.  Great SNOT techniques, huge, impressive display size, interesting Technic gear train inside to fold up the wings...it's a really cool set.

managed to dump all my great halls around £100 - £110, hopefullt get in lower next time

You sell on eBay? Seems like only going for £100-105 now.

Seems like might be worth selling at that price for shipping and fees, mamight be better to hold if it is supposedly going Q3 2021, unless you manage to sell during £1 FVF promo

I see stocks at retail stores dwindling, maybe claw back a little if you can otherwise no stock when it eventually retires. I can't imagine how lego keeps up its catalogue for next year.

Posted (edited)

are folks holding onto the Slave 1 Anniversary set?

obviously sell off the Razor Crests since it ain't retiring...both are hot right now (both around $200 when include shipping-ebay)...but obviously Slave 1 (currently) has the higher ceiling

Holding on very tightly. Sold off previous version wayyy too early and left over $150 on the table per set. Its only going up, likely $300 by Q4 2021. Why would you sell? Unless you have 100's but even then.... ride the gain....
