August 29, 201411 yr Finally sold my Extreme Cruiser 8081 for $129.....minus Ebay,Paypal, and smartpost fees I am pocketing $55 profit good for a nice dinner for two at red lobster. Wish I could have bought 50 of these when it was being given away during TOYSRUS BOGO sales a couple years or so ago.
August 29, 201411 yr Used complete Aquazone aquabase invasion from a bulk lot for $110, shipping included.
August 29, 201411 yr 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.
August 29, 201411 yr Author 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. 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.
August 29, 201411 yr A box of goodies for our garage sale tomorrow. I'll let you guys know how I do. Yank out those Spidey Gliders and sell'em to me!
August 29, 201411 yr 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.

August 29, 201411 yr Author That's amazing that they didn't sell. I think here they would have flipped out of that basket like hotcakes.

August 29, 201411 yr . That's amazing that they didn't sell. I think here they would have flipped out of that basket like hotcakes. or in a parking lot Corrected.
August 29, 201411 yr 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.
August 30, 201411 yr You don't need LEGO when you're stilling moonshine, trapping, hunting, or making babies.
August 30, 201411 yr You don't need LEGO when you're stilling moonshine, trapping, hunting, or making babies. Well thats your opinion on a few of those.
August 30, 201411 yr 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.
August 30, 201411 yr I've become very fond of moonshine over the last few years. It makes those bulk lots go by much faster. Moonshine will turn a good night into a spinning mess. I guess I'm a light weight
August 30, 201411 yr 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.
August 30, 201411 yr 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. You are missing Apple pie moonshine my friend.
August 30, 201411 yr Moonshine will turn a good night into a spinning mess. 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.
August 30, 201411 yr You don't need LEGO when you're stilling moonshine, trapping, hunting, or making babies. Well thats your opinion on a few of those. No Lego involved in the process of making babies? Really? Come on now...... The don`t call them the Building Blocks of Life for nothing!
