exciter1 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 This is my feeling too. I got the impression a lot of people missed the boat on the FB, and have been making up for it by loading up on GE. It's gonna be a very crowded market once it's EOL. I don't think many of the long-time investors missed out on the FB. They loaded up on them by the crap ton. Quote
tractorboy Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 I don't think many of the long-time investors missed out on the FB. They loaded up on them by the crap ton. Right, ok. I suppose I really meant people who were a little later to the investment game like myself. I got the impression it caught a few people out, though I suppose that's the case with a lot of sets. Well that's more encouraging then if the FB market has been quite competitive. I haven't really been keeping an eye on it as I didn't have one. If the GE matches its performance, I'll be a happy man.

It's pretty encouraging when the GE is fetching close to $200 on EBay, before it's even sold out on S@H. Quote

It's gonna be a very crowded market once it's EOL. That's exactly what people said about FB. The Macks even confirmed it was in the top 5 (#1 I think?) held sets in brickfolios. Quote
holleman67 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 It wasn't even eol, just oos, and selling for almost $200, yeah listen to a resident expert like bold and don't buy it Quote
CNH1974 Posted June 6, 2014 Posted June 6, 2014 It's pretty encouraging when the GE is fetching close to $200 on EBay, before it's even sold out on LEGO Shop at Home. Looks like the USA eBay market is higher than the UK at the moment. Most are going for Quote

Dbroncoboy Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Did I miss the post about GE being removed from TRU.com or is this a new revelation? 1 Quote
marcandre Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Did I miss the post about GE being removed from TRU.com or is this a new revelation? That's news to me. Gone from FAO too. Is shop at home the only place to get it now? LAST CALL ON 10211??? I was a little worried this would linger on TRU after retirement like the castle. Quote
junkrigger Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Did I miss the post about GE being removed from TRU.com or is this a new revelation? New news! TRU is usually seller of last resort they had it yesterday Quote
BrickLegacy Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 GE back up at Walmart.. Hopefully those aren't the four crushed/smashed boxes I returned about two weeks ago. Quote
No More Monkeys Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Hopefully those aren't the four crushed/smashed boxes I returned about two weeks ago. Allows ordering of at least 5, so probably not :-) Quote
oneknightr Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Went to the Lego Store in Pleasanton, CA on Saturday and bought one GE. There were three on the shelf and I picked the best looking box. I went back yesterday to pick up another and there were four on the shelf. None of them had the same condition issues as the two I left there on Saturday. Looks like they're still selling well. Quote
dbost01 Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 When I pull up grand emporium at walmart it still shows out of stock for me. Quote
No More Monkeys Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 When I pull up grand emporium at walmart it still shows out of stock for me. It was short lived. went poof in a few minutes Quote
No More Monkeys Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 GE sign of EOL No page on toys rus.com ? absence of the page is not significant enough - there are several examples where listings would suddenly reappear. combined with other signs, like walmart and amazon not getting sufficient levels of GE in stock to last even 5 minutes, that could be The Sign Quote
Stevenplays Posted June 11, 2014 Posted June 11, 2014 Hopefully it stays in stock until Christmas, I still haven't gotten a single one! Quote
