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"

razor crest being a mega winner was easy to see 4 months away.  

i have a few to unload this weekend at starbucks parking lot.  

Good for you for seeing thru the veil of plentitude..and I'll take your cue and hold on to my last one for direct sale...tired giving Ebay more $$ 

...I still think blowing the ship up (from orbit) got folks wanting it more (no one but FIloni knew that was coming)

[BricksBrotha]

Any ad i put on fbm is getting 1-5 responses in the first 15 min. The $20-40(5-15 buyin) price point is flying out the door. Have a potential buyer for HH and TH this wknd as well as just sold a Mustang with the sticker and vip key chain for $200. 

Enjoy these times folks

I hit my dec 2019 sales within 9 days in 2020, some hits and misses. Certainly annoyed that I didn't buy more RC when they were readily available at other EU amazons... Slave 1's are not that hot here, still going for around RRP.

[bigfanofnu]

Covid Surge hasn't affected 76013 Batman: The Joker Steam Roller. 20% below RRP and still no bites. 

[brickvoyeur]

21029 - $80 cash

I really thought this was going to do better. Suckingham Palace. Still did fine in regards to Walmart buy-in at $27.38

If the queen wasn't an android this might finally take off if she'd kick the bucket.

Unikitty Dr Fox Laboratory 41454 for $40. It truly is a magical time of year.

Not a set but... you guys ever sold a manual for $230? I just did. Bought it for $10. Sometimes paper just beats plastic...

I can't say unfortunately as I'll probably buy more & I don't want bidding wars on these manuals, they rarely pop up anyway. It's a UCS set.

[oneknightr]

I bought a bulk buy years ago and found a UCS Naboo Fighter instruction manual in it along with some pieces, but not a full set. Sold the manual for $160. Easy money.

[Bold-Arrow]

Sold my soul to Lucifer himself for pennies on the dollar this holiday season , damn you FBM !

[Phil B]

Sold through 4 17101 Boost sets (buy-in $40 at WM 2 years ago) at $250 shipped each via BrickOwl. I was the only US seller on that platform, and somehow a lot of newbie buyers found their way to my listing. Received 10 quote requests in the last 72 hrs, out of which 4 turned into sales. With $12.50 in total fees this was a nice money maker

The manual alone sold for this much!?

Yup. I think the set had a short run or something. 

[redghostx]

I have sold a few manuals for 200-250 each. Usually old Creator exclusives.

[elmaslıefendi]

Manuals are insane... if you get the right ones.

Glad you got rid of it locally!  Shipping that bad boy is expensive!

Didn't you have to pay tax on the original purchase?

tax exempt, purchased with a Redcard to negate taxes, purchased with another cashback card that is equivalent to tax rate?

Ha, my tax rate is almost 10%. That would be one hell of a cashback card! 

[iahawks550]

For a purchase at Target, a $300 set with Redcard is $301.31 for me.

Sold the last of my Elves today.

Elves - The Goblin King's Evil Dragon 41183 $78.70 shipped before fees.

[BricksBrotha]

Sold a 41196 for $110 and 41186 for $20 cash, local sale.  $60 buy in.  Last of my 41186 and only one 41196 left out of my whole 60% off sweep from a local target a few years back.

[Huskers1236]

Last City Hospital for $192 shipped.  Buy-in average on these was ~$60.  Keeping one for potential town rebuild.
