What Lego set did you sell today and for how much?

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"

Its a good thing you sold it before the government made you change the menu and force your customers to eat "healthier".

 

I know, right?! As it was, I wasn't able to sell to anyone in New York, cuz the drive thru comes with a large coke.

The coffee may have been too hot for that crazy driver and he could have spilled it on his lap and sued.

Boxes definitely help move used sets. Plus, you dont get 5 messages a week asking, "Does it have the box?"

Do you see the box in the picture? Did you read the description which states "Sorry, does not include original box"? I'm guessing no and no.

Edit: oops it appears im replying to a much earlier post from Barca.

5 Deloreans, 1 Quinjet, 1 Sopwith and a handful of Captain America and Wolverine sets. 

Hopefully things keep picking up.

I was going to wait until closer to Xmas to sell my first 3 retired sets but, sold prices look good on eBay and I've listed them today.  I'll hopefully be actually selling something soon.

[Fcbarcelona101]

6210 Sail Barge. Vastly superior than the new one, IMO. May keep the last one I have....

[JoshTX]

Flipped a mini Hogwart's express locally to a guy who also bought some action figures from me. 10 bucks for a polybag I paid 3.99 plus tax for a couple weeks ago. Now if I only I could find a bunch more people to buy these for 10 bucks a pop....

If you're talking about the Kraang polybag, I'm sitting on a few too.  I took advantage of the BOGO 50% off and bought a few more.

I sold a 9492 Tie fighter.....

It's funny for me seeing the huge amassed pile of that polybag which has been sitting at my Five Below for the past something months. I don't think they could even give em' away. I guess Harry Potter just sells better in certain areas than others. :dontknow:

They sell ok here, the cat just isn't out of the bag yet that 5 Below has a bunch of these. 5 Below is new in my city, they had their Grand opening like 2 months ago. So people that aren't aware they carry the Hogwart's express are still buying them. If 5 Below advertised having these though, flipping them woud be over. That's why I've bought only a few packs and haven't gone nuts with them.

Well then, let's keep that a secret here so you can continue flippin' them like there is no flippin' tommorrow! :secret:

Some of the holiday promotional items.  Booyah for subsidizing my other purchases.

[Guest TabbyBoy]

Just sold my second 3182 Airport for the full price (no offers) of

[CNH1974]

Ah-ha, well done

Beats my PAB lots sold for a tender today.

That is fantastic. I have 2 but our prices here aren't anywhere near that (though I bought for close to your purchase price)

 

Sold my last DeLorean, another Captain America set, Hulk's Helicarrier Breakout, Power Armour Lex, Batmobile v Two Face and 2 Minecraft. Looking at that lot it seems the Christmas buying is starting to kick in

Those Capt America sets are incredible.  I have sold over 20 of those and just cant find anymore.  I have a feeling the Avengers and Batman are going to sell like hot cakes this Christmas.

Are they ever. I have sold over 20 of them as well, though down to my last 5, each made over 200% profit after fees. 

[jaisonline]

It was a busy day on bricklink. Yay.

10175 UCS Vader's tie advanced (no box)

7888 Batman 1 : Tumbler / Ice Cream truck (sealed)

Vader minifig with the light up lightsaber. (New)

My other 7888 sealed set is on-hold for an Australian AFOL with a $25 deposit. Maybe I should offer a layaway service on Bricklink and eBay. Ha

Also, sold a non-Lego item. 1982 Kenner Star Wars prototype Millennium Falcon from the Micro line.

Maybe Holiday shopping has indeed began.

How much were you selling the 7888 sets for?

[jaisonline]

How much were you selling the 7888 sets for?

$575 plus shipping. I would rate the boxes 6.5 to 7 out of 10. A few minor creases. Very hard to find excellent 7888 boxes. Odd size (too deep for a smaller # of elements).

I was getting some bites at $600 last month but nothing panned out.

I have an opened boxed one for my son that I paid $200 for. Stickers never applied. It is a great set (he plays with the Tumbler and it stays together). Looks-wise, It is aging very well.
