Now here is another set that I will be loading up on got 15 shooting for 40, should be around until end of 2015, This set will be a huge money maker so investors should be buying these whenever they can. So don't wait until its to late. Ed

This is like asking a bunch of drunks if you should drink a beer.

Sold a set of all 4 Minecraft for $180

You can put your own terms, they just don't matter if the customer files something. Case can be opened up to 90 days and paypal will be moving to 180 day returns. You can combat some by putting in a restock fee into your terms. It sometimes discourages the buyer from it but then you run the risk of a low DSR / Bad feedback etc. Safest way you could kind of "pick your buyer" is saying they were $800 at Xmas just put a higher BIN with best offer. Not something to high as you want to get offers but not low enough it will get hit to quickly. You can then do some research on the person who made the offer. Look at feedback amount (most all negative/neutral feedback comes from buyers with under 50 feedback, close to 50% of what I have tracked over the years) Buying activity (make sure its not the first purchase in a long time by the buyer) Feedback left for others (most troublesome users have a pattern of leaving high amounts of neutrals and negatives when they don't get there way) Length of ebay account being open If the user name has changed the last 30 days

Well, either that, or send grandma

Preorders on LEGO Shop at Home!

After landing AA at $20 each I would have needed to buy some new pants as well so the price would have gone up a bit.

You have to figure that a huge number of these sold will get ripped open and built on Christmas morning. Some people want it under the tree and they'll pay for that.

I've been rebuilding my 80s space sets for the first time in 25 years and displaying them around the house. Staring at all those blue (and other coloured) astronauts, it's tempting to turn them into easy cash but I'd sooner donate internal organs.

With the retirement date for the Death Star do you mean 2017 or 2117? ;)

Mine arrived in worse condition than this and I'm ok with it. Can't be too choosy at this point, our buying options are limited.

This female lion was reunited with her caretaker after a couple of years. The footage speaks for itself. Goodnight.

good going. return people that way the price will go down and i will double up on my stockpile . i will buy more @24.99 .. please ... some more...

Consensus would probably be, buy now.

I'd like to think so but from collectors point of view, what would be a priority? I would say every city needs a fire hall over a mall but the GE looks impressive. On top of that I think the TH will do well in the 2ndary for the same reason, everyone needs a town hall in their city. It's also a great spot for the delorean to hang out with the clock tower. :D

Mixels Series 1 set for 94.95. Trending up!

A lot of people think city sets aren't worth the time, but there are some gems out there. I had sold all of my space centers previously, but then reloaded when TRU had them on clearance for $40.xx this past summer. It's been trending up. As far as the monster fighters, if you're looking to sell this year now is the time to do it, and I think selling as a lot is the way to go. I just started listing mine about a week ago, and they are drawing lots of attention/watchers. This year I'm just trying to move my small sets. I'll keep all of my HH and the rest of my Vampire Castles for the long haul.

I understand the attachment. I recommend you take all the cash you made, throw it on the bed, and roll around in it a lot. It will help. :)

It excites me more than Sydney Opera House.

Plenty of other opportunities out there. While you may grieve for HH, R2D2 is rolling away from under your nose.

It is unethical for TRU to not make these available to all of us at that price. ;)

A seller can remove auction items with bids but risk a penalty from eBay.

Only have 3, but they will pay for a good weekend welness next year. Nice

Went to Lego B&M St Louis today. They had 4 Tumblers. I walked out with one I got for $94 after cashing in my $110 in VIP points. The guy even said "good thing you got it when you did, it's going to be $800 on ebay at christmas." I just laughed and pretended like "who would do such a thing?!"

"TLC is using logic" ? In front of you? That's like me trying to dunk in front of Jordan around 1985.

Ed, this might be the set I will go toe to toe with you.

They can rip my classic space sets out of my cold dead hands! I was going to give them to my kids, but after picking through buckets of mixed Lego rebuilding all of the sets of my childhood, I couldn't let them go. The kids play with them, but they're separate and won't get mixed into the "general population." Too many good memories there, it would take a lot for me to sell them.

Fixed your post.

I feel dumber after reading this, thanks.

GE, TH and PS... not possible.

From the looks of the photos, if the seals are in tact and there are no holes then leave it be. Or return it and I'll buy it from awd when it hits there!

It has been out in the wild for about a year. In about 10 more months we should start seeing it fade away and eventually EOL-ing, asusming this one does the 2-year run. In Lego time, that's a lot of time. Some will put the money in some sets that could have a higher ROI - 10211, 10221, 10225 to name a few - to flip them over christmas. If I had the cash, I would invest in those sets as well, but since I am a SW minifig collector I'd probably pick one up with those hefty discounts you talk about and part it out. I wish I could find sets with discounts over here sometime And finally, around April-May 2015, I'd invest in 2 units of this set.

It's up to you but to me that looks like superficial damage. As long as the seals are intact I would leave it. Besides, you might not get another one. Then you'll be...

Welcome, shirow.

Whenever someone asks that, the answer is always no, but people always ask anyway.

International. Minecraft sells really good to Countries where they are about 70$ USD new equivalent.

Anyone think that in the super long term this set could be worth more than Fire Brigade or Haunted House? It's a pretty impressive looking building.

If you go ahed with $1's, don't do it naked - you might feel like stripper. Use at least $10's, if you do want to do it naked...

Seller on Brickowl has 5 at $259 each lets see how long until they go Poof.

That's actually good to know. I thought I was doing myself a service by documenting what I was selling and shipping.

Did you order from the Lego store? Cause that is a ban waiting to happen...

Picked up a 4842 Hogwarts off CL for $100 Used with box and instructions. All there except one minifig, looks like it will cost me $8 to complete it. I don't know anything about HP but this seems like the set to get. Going to clean it up and bag everything nicely. List it in December for MEGABUCKS!!!

You are correct - there are at least 4 places where panels fall off at the slightest touch (using the round boat studs doesn't help). I had to help when my girlfriend was moving it and couldn't get a grip to put the paneling back on. It's a cool piece but you can't touch it - even the B-wing was sturdier than this set. It still looks incredible though.

Why Wont This Set Freaking Die!!!!!!!!! My 2 GEs also shipped today I ordered them on the august 15th. I ordered another 2 on september 1st, still waiting on those.

This is the set that was so underrated it became overrated and is now so overrated it will become underrated again.

Eh, I liked the $27.99 price better.

It is going to change. After ebay had its behind handed to them in china and now etsy has shown that others can not only compete but beat ebay things are in motion. Payal will be spun off but after the apple pay announcement it is dead in the water. Without paypal ebay barely makes a profit so once JD is fired and they open the platform up to multiple payment processors (apple pay, amazon pmts, stripe) it will change as a marketplace. The top brass at ebay and paypal are currently making a huge cash grab as they know in 2-3 years the ecommerce landscape in the USA is going to be alot different.....Jack Ma is coming for them and they are floundering. In 5 years ebay will be radically different and alot smaller and alot of other players will have equal if not greater footing. Hang in there as once the smoke clears there will be alot of other options besides ebay and they will be better than todays ebay. It will be more work to list on multiple venues but something tells me someone bright, ambitious and hungary will link all of the venues together to make a huge world marketplace accepting one virtual currency. Capitalism FTW.
