Popular Post brickvoyeur Posted December 7, 2022 Popular Post 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

Ogelwoc Posted March 14, 2021 Posted March 14, 2021 I sold a used UCS R2 D2 for $350 today. With the rumours of reissue, time to let go. Can't complain much for that price I guess. Still have a NISB for own collection. 4 Quote

I didn't buy any because of that. The big question is, would it have done as well if we didn't have to deal with COVID? 1 Quote

Haha, I got one for $30 at Walmart, and then sold it for $80 cash to a guy I met at a Walmart! I knew it was a winner, but it was nice to get it into the hands of someone who would enjoy it. Quote
stuco191 Posted May 2, 2021 Posted May 2, 2021 (edited) Bought three 77907 Mario Sets when the SDCC craze hit last year. Then they stayed in stock at Target for a while so I was kinda bummed... Forgot about them. Then looked 3 days ago what they were selling for 😱! Sold one for $90 today Edited May 2, 2021 by stuco191 7 Quote
HandyHand Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Finally sold my last 75102 Poe's X-Wing, for €97. Good riddance of this set collecting dust on my shelves for years. Had expected it to do better because of the unique colour livery. Oh well. Also sold another non-seller (70916, The Batwing from the Lego Batman movie), for 69 Euro. Good thing I had bought it at 50% off (€50). 1 Quote
godernst Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Sold 31084 for $115 on StockX ($100 after fees). Buy-in was $25 at Walmart in 7/2019. Really like the fact that StockX pays you upon authentication; you are insulated from having to deal with any buyer complaints/issues/fraud which I think makes it superior to eBay despite the lower selling price.

Looks interesting if there are buyers on StockX buying lego. Quote

How does selling on StockX compare to selling on Bricklink ? Better prices? On Bricklink you're also paid up front, before shipping out the order. Quote
godernst Posted May 21, 2021 Posted May 21, 2021 On StockX shipping is free for the seller and in my experience impossibly cheap for the buyer (I paid < $15 each to have Ewok Village/Bucket Wheel Excavator shipped from Hong Kong to USA). You don't ship directly to the buyer, you ship to StockX where they verify the item is authentic and then ship it onwards to the buyer. Pricing is fluid in that Sellers list their Asking price and buyers post their Bid and then either can raise/lower until they meet at an agreed upon price and then the sale is official. You can see the price history for every sale for each set. The difference between StockX and Bricklink/eBay is that it's NISB sets only, and once StockX has verified your item is authentic you get paid. There is no communication with the buyer (you don't even know who it is) and you are insulated from any complaints/issues that the buyer has. Once your item reaches StockX and is confirmed to be legitimate, you get paid and you're done. For a high-value set, not having to deal with the possibility of a buyer complaint/return/other issue is a nice perk. 2 Quote
