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...
imirish11 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Sold 8547 Mindstorms for $420. Finished up my oil change and stopped by TRU down the street and bought another for $297, which is the same price paid for the first. Also earned about $35 free gas for buying gc's first.

redghostx Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Sold my Pirates Enchanted Island for $120 shipped. Just down to the Fort Legoredo and all the old sets will be gone. I recently picked up the Enchanted Island for $55 as there are few sets like it. I must be in the minority as I liked the islanders sets when I was a teenager. Ex Astris, Scientia.

I must be in the minority as I liked the islanders sets when I was a teenager. Ex Astris, Scientia. It's really cool, and I like the entire Islanders line. My kids did not think it so cool. All the Western and Pirate stuff just didn't win them over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeff_14 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Just made another Craigslist sale for 4 Hobbit sets (Goblin King, Dol Guldur ambush, Unexpected Gathering and Attack of the Wargs) for $250 CDN. I paid $180 for these and have more of all of them to hold onto for later. Unexpected Gathering was the only one of the 4 I didn't get for 50% off. I have a number of Craigslist ads per theme (eg City, Chima, Star Wars) that I update as my inventory changes and enjoy making these regular sales while I plot my next major speculative purchases. Just went in for 20 Exo suits in the past 2 weeks so I'm waiting to see if I return these sets within the 45 day window depending on what happens with this set right now.

MartinP Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 That's amazing that they didn't sell. I think here they would have flipped out of that basket like hotcakes. That would have probably happened in my area too. I went to a garage sale the other day that had Lego sets advertised on CL, they had a decent variety of sets, but they were selling them at almost what they were valued at. They were also selling really fast. I think five sets were sold in the couple minutes that I was there. I guess I'll need to try selling some sets at my garage sales sometimes.

Migration Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 You don't need LEGO when you're stilling moonshine, trapping, hunting, or making babies. I've become very fond of moonshine over the last few years. It makes those bulk lots go by much faster. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Moonshine will turn a good night into a spinning mess. I guess I'm a light weight I don't see the point of moonshine if I can drink something that tastes better. Would you like to drink razors? no, I think not.

I guess I'm a light weight I wouldn't say "light weight", "efficient drunk" is what I would go with. You are missing Apple pie moonshine my friend. I still need to crack my last jar. I've heard it gets better with a little time, and this jar has just over a year on it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
