Sandwraith Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Sold 2 this holiday season to test the waters on the set for around $75CAD shipped (CAD MSRP = $44.99). Purchased most of mine at 20-25% off. So certainly money to be made on these! even at retail down the road. 1 Quote
JosephMali Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 A lot of people have them, but they are still one of Amazon's top sellers in Lego, so the supply will continue to be huge for the set. Quote
mudcatsfan Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) More recently and sometimes just regional. Several here cleaned up Shopkos at 50% off and Barnes and noble had all minecraft at 26.24 (before coupons and member discount) a few weeks ago (a short unannounced sale). So temporary and regional clearance is not more heavily discounted then being available for 20% off for months on end with no limits on amazon. (if we're considering impact to the market and how much could have been bought up by brickvesters) To me this says that the Delorean did not sell as well as the Minecraft set. It just SAT at 20% off forever. Edited January 16, 2015 by mudcatsfan Quote
mudcatsfan Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Tempted to grab a few at full retail to hold for the long-term. Seems crazy since they were discounted for so long but it's all but gone, and its 2015 after all. Ceiling on this set in 2 years = ____? Ceiling? Where we're going we don't need ceilings. or $99.99 shipped. Quote
trekgate502 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Just bought two and it still says two left Quote
someasiandude Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 It's just probably a limit of 2 per order Quote
sroster Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Nope. I just poofed the last one. Tried to order two but only let me add one to cart. I'm sure more will trickle in but things are getting interesting. I think the $44.99 ones on TRU are not available also. Nope again, you are right. Reset to 19. Guess I'll buy one more, why not.

jaxman Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Okay, maybe a rookie question here... why does the main page on Amazon for 21103 say 2 left, then when you add one to your cart it says 15 left? Quote
zskid00 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 Probably because there are only 2 available to you (purchase limit) but 15 available from Amazon before they poof. Quote
seapotato Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I dont have any of these and I wish I had grabbed one or two when I saw then at 20% off at the Lego store on double VIP day! Quote
BrickLegacy Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I watched the original movie with my kids the other day. They loved it. In fact, my 8 yr old (girl) keeps begging me to watch the 2nd one. I expect the children of the 80s to all show this movie to their kids as the hype around October 21, 2015 ramps up. Hopefully this set is gone by then and we can all cash in. I picked up two from AMZ just now. We'll see what happens but I didn't want to be stuck with the one I had to build (knowing that my two kids will probably want the other ones anyways). Quote
mscheaf Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I was going to get some more then I realized I have 15 of them already. That's enough. 1 Quote
xeeeej Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I was going to get some more then I realized I have 15 of them already. That's enough. And there are 218 third-party sellers on Amazon. It will be a slooooow climb. Quote
newbie77 Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 And there are 218 third-party sellers on Amazon. It will be a slooooow climb. depends on the demand .. same as RI and exo-suit ... and minecraft 21102 .. gonna be at least a year before 2XRRP Quote
legodelorean Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 I've got three, one to build and two to hold onto. I'm debating if I should buy two more on Amazon. I called my local Lego store and they said that this was retired. He didn't have any in stock and they weren't getting any more. Take it for what it's worth, but it looks like the signs are there for this bad boy to end up retiring pretty soon. Not that I know all that much, I have a feeling in the future that this set could sell for $100. I know if I had the cash and these things were sold out I'd buy one for $100 since I love the movie so much. Quote

legodelorean Posted January 16, 2015 Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) if you really believe that then you should have few boatload ... may be large containerload would be a better term Yeah, I should but I stocked up on some other things and only have so much cash. If daycare wasn't so expensive I'd have much more inventory. These darn kids are sucking me dry!! Edited January 16, 2015 by legodelorean Quote
