Did you try selling them some of the sets out of the trunk of your car? I hear they sell like hot cakes that way.

ChrisJB, maybe folks in VAN (CAN) are enjoying their summer like a member once said there's more to life than any Lego set $100 pays for an item/set they lost out on while doing something else or can't wait for the next production run I guess. Good that you made some decent cash flipping...just lay off the terms 'joke...messed up' when describing Canada please I'm just chiming in for my neighbours out West

I like seeing people post they got a large amount of sets. This site is about investing and selling first and foremost. Congrats to anyone who has been able to cash in on these sets. Anyone posting hate because they missed out is on the wrong site.

Resellers are their own worst enemy with this set, snapping up the inventory and causing LEGO to start up another production run. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

This post might offend some. It's not my intent. Like Ed stated, "Is that our fault? No... If you want something in life, make a plan and get it. The people who complained and didn't get a set were not prepared." These soreheads seem similar (and worse in some aspects) than the $99 10227 B-Wing ones. As much as people can cry and stomp, 21109s were available at different times through multiple retailers (like $99 10227 at TRU) for over a week. It appears people tried shop@home only a handful of times before either giving up or being satisfied with 2 sets. Then there are others who proactively checked other retailers. 1.) found target didn't have limits and 2) TRU had it for $25 so people bought more or their initial 21109(s). Additionally, other retailers (Amazon) also had 21109s in-stock on and off. People just needed to check a couple of times per day. So don't go blaming other folks because Little Johnny didn't get his Exo Suit set that daddy prob really wanted. I spoke my peace. I'm done.

Honestly, if people are pissed off about not being able to get an exo suit, they should blame Lego more than anything else. Whenever a company make something a limited release, it's going to create a situation where you have to be at the store on day 1 to get a copy, and people are going to hoard them for resale. Even without the existance of this site, there would be people buying up exo suits for resale due to it's supposedly limited nature. If Lego cared about the average kid being able to get one of these, they'd produce them in greater quanitity. With limited releases, they're just throwing a big bone to collectors while pissing off their normal fans who couldn't get one.

Lol ppl need to get angry at LEGO for not putting up a better order fulfillment system on S @ H. The thing crashed about the same time Exo Suit became available on 8/1

If you need something last minute or for personal collection/gift that is not on sale anywhere else...use promo code TWENTY for 20% off one regular priced item. Too bad it's not 25% promo...I would buy more stuff Remember to sign up/use Plum Pts...adds up. I always like the condition of sets and reuse the Indigo shipping boxes. I looked at the Lego section and nothing really jumped out at me. Would love to buy some SuperHeroes sets but already have enough to build at home and will wait longer for investing purposes/better deals.

I'm sure you have a good idea what actual mini figs feel like, most of the fakes I've seen just feel...cheap. Also look for the "Lego" trade mark stamps on the feet or head post. Pay special attention to Hulk, if he's real I would imagine the rest are as well.

If people want to help reduce the amount of hate, they should stop posting about how many sets they were able to get. I can see people getting upset when you read about multiple resellers who are posting/boasting/showing off about buying 50 of these and/or posting pictures of their stacks of these. Does it really matter to anyone but yourself how many you were able to get? Of course, LEGO could help with this by just allowing pre-orders of sets. It would give "regular" people a chance to get one at release date and give LEGO an idea of demand.

This is why i am in favor for a paid subscription to the site. Much of the talk on here is not investment oriented. Let that be free and the real investment focused content onlt accessible for the annual fee. It will manage that potential negative reputation and still attract new.members for growth. Oh amd the exo suit is awesome. Should do quite well, who cares if they produce one more run.

Jeff and I have been reading a lot of hate towards members here on other sites the last few days, a lot of it based on the lack of availability of the Exo Suit. Is that our fault? No. LEGO was unprepared for the interest in the set. If you want something in life, make a plan and get it. The people who complained and didn't get a set were not prepared. For months, this was the set that people discussed...on all sites, so there is no excuse. I do feel sorry for the kids who didn't get a chance to buy one, but they will after LEGO releases more. There is an elitist anti-BrickPicker attitude with some old school AFOLs. Most are hypocrites. They visit this site and care about how much money their sets are worth, yet bad mouth us when we are not there to defend ourselves. I say complain away. The more you complain about our site and members, the more people will find us. As for this set, the intense interest by all...resellers, collectors, kids, whatever...has created a situation where LEGO has to produce more. I am not telling people to not buy them or to buy them, but just be aware that the rabid buying might make LEGO overestimate interest, thus overproduce the set. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

So what if the wife won't join. For me it would be a blessing not to have to explain what happened every 5 minutes or why that mr Lego is angry with the other mr Lego... ENJOY!!!!!!

Well... I think it's time to post this again :

And that is the point when I say....

Are you running for the troll badge?

With tru's history they probably padded the sets with other sets and left 30% of the box empty.

Anyone having luck flipping this set on CL? What are you asking for?

Dude's just trolling again. We got home from the late yesterday afternoon and it took my oldest all of 30 minutes to discover the Exo Suit sets which had been placed in our "to sell" storage closet (they were out all last week .. got my two on Friday). He told me the door was already open and he was just looking. Ha, as if!

RI from TRU shipped

In the grand scheme of things the exo for the most part at the moment can be sold for $60 plus shipping on the river. That nets the seller after shipping about $11 profit a set. Even the ones that scored big with 20-50 from a target or amazon order when there were no limits is only profiting about $200-$500. Good money for a short period hold but hardly life changing and not worth getting worked up over if you missed out.

retiring soon sign up! nice~~~~ I almost parted mine out... guess not then lol Amazon's price on this set came back these past few days... but they still have them in stock

They sell like cold cakes out of my van. Probably shouldn't have written "Rape" on the side of it.

you can try the offline websites too as well, but you may not have many success

You have to be checking every 10 minutes. The Exo has rebirthed twice today and the RI once. First Exo lasted 30 mins and second under 15. RI about 10.

Was kinda funny as when the 21110 became available to order it changed positions with the 21109 in the Ideas section of LEGO Shop at Home. Quick as a ninja.

So I've just boarded the ferry to return home to Tasmania after a couple of weeks in Victoria (with the car suitably loaded with Lego acquisitions of course) and discover that one of the two movies being shown on board tonight is the Lego Movie. Still trying to convince my wife to watch it with me so I don't look too shady sitting in the boat cinema alone. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Brickpicker mobile app

Some more Star Wars sets have been added to the list including next year's Microfighters series which features an AT-AT. via The Brick Fan

I obviously don't know the Austrailian market, but these are SUPER sellers during Christmas. Chima is popular, not like Friends or Ninjago, but I sold A LOT of minifigures last Christmas. I have about 20 of these and sold them all at 15$ each. I have about 10-15 more I got earlier this year from BN I plan to do the same with.

Welcome to BP!

Time to replace the old displays. Last years SW version was outstanding with the 50 or so minifigures being displayed. I managed to get one a while back. I'm looking for the TRU Technic racing car display. Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker

Yep, looks great. Hoth is one of my favorite locations so I'll have to try to get this display.

Pretty sure there was a significant ROI

Good day, Huggernaut.

Good question. It appears they have!

Honestly, the print is so small that it's hard to even read the word, "SHIELD"

Cool, good choices. Don't let the power go to your heads.

The winter theme is addictive and getting pretty costly with the first 3 sets. Oh myyy, they look great though.

Can we add a badge with a hawk icon that indicates we schedule our lives around lego purchases? Alternatively, it can be a granny with a single tear rolling down her cheek.

Can everyone start also including what their item sold for. I speak for many when I say that I really don't care what you sold as much as how much it sold for. Thanks!

No break away bike? That would be icing.

OMG, you didn't??? :thumbsu:
