  2. Had my 7965's priced at $229 on AMZ - was $40 over going rate when I went to sleep. Sold 3 over night. Was intending to hold those longer. Oh well, QFLL for me.

  3. Yesterday I decided I should knock down my price on MC the cave since I have 8 and was a bit worried a major restock would come. My plan was to put up the best price on ebay sell 3 or 4 and then bump back up a bit. They all sold in a couple of hours while I was putting the kids to bed! $44.95 shipped, probably could have squeezed some more out of them but nice to be out of the QFLL MC game (except for a couple of first nights I have left). Also an icebreaker $183.95 a SC $174.95 my last RI $44.95 and some Mixels. I'm selling much more than I planned to this year as my rookie Xmas season basically. Yo ho, yo ho the QFLL life for me. We pillage from grandma's lil' Johnny beware buy up the lego yo ho!

  4. Made another stop at the Mom & Pop Pharmacy today. They are running 25% off all Hasbro and LEGO. All of the older LEGO is MSRP, but they are starting to mark-up at least 10% on the new stuff they're getting in. I got all of this 25% off. I left a Helm's Deep (nice condition) and Jabba's Palace (crease in the middle) behind. If anyone wants them for a decent deal off their reseller special prices, shoot me a PM. Helm's Deep - $104.99 Millennium Falcon - $97.49 Pet Salon - $22.49 Creative Bucket 10662 - $24.89.

  5. No. There have been numerous sets where there was a misprint, but the misprinted sets were not more valuable than the corrected ones.

  7. We had the freight train, the steam locomotive and the modern express. Now what we need is a crappy rundown eastern european passenger train from the 70-80s. A new track piece is needed which makes the train bump and derails if goes at normal speed, so a speed limit has to be imposed which makes the train rides very slow.

  11. The Tower Bridge doesn't dance. It is a great value...and set. This set is a must have for any collector. I think you will be hard pressed to find another 4000+ piece set for $240...ever. If you don't have at least one, what are you waiting for?

  12. I've been having a blast parting these out. People will buy any piece of this set they can get. I sold the instruction book for The Farm: $6.25 shipped! I listed an empty 2114 box and I have bidders. Next, I plan on selling a photograph of myself playing with a Steve minifigure for a dollar. Sent from my XT1028 using Brickpicker mobile app

  14. Just a tip for the future, when you're that close on shipping weight (assuming you're shipping in a box), you can trim the inside flaps of cardboard a bit to take the extra weight off. Works great for me when you're that close in ounces.

  17. Actually, not an Apple problem. It's the forum software app that is being upgraded soon enough. Workaround is simple. After submitting your post, wait 3-5 secs. If the app is still refreshing (the clockwise status circle) , simply quit the app and reopen.

  18. For you Investors starting next year I would buy a Tumbler when ever you can, I have 5 now and will be buying one or two at least every month or so, this way when the Retiring panic buying starts I should have 20-30 now most will wait and wait and again miss the boat.

  20. Amazon is already $214.95 and eBay is $192.50 as the lowest prices. Glad I stocked up. They can go with the 9493 X Wings I got that are already at $99.90 Amazon and eBay $86.98 that some thought was a bad buy in at $48 a couple of weeks ago from Walmart. That goes with the Tie Figher advice I got to avoid those too which unfortunately I heeded. All of these are medium level winners at worst. I love the OT stuff and I do not think any of it is coming back. It will all be Episode VII'd which is a great thing too but makes the OT stuff more valuable.

  25. But that doesn't allow one to skate close to the edge and risk not getting it so they can complain they can't find it anymore except from those greedy resellers. Sarcastic smiley inserted.

  26. The way I see it, someone is going to want to swap in a few friends hair and head pieces and create all of ariels sisters. amazing treasures is the cheapest way. I'm definitely not ignoring any DP set with more than one minidoll either.

  28. I don't think so. From what I have seen, the values are relatively the same between a misprint and a normal one.

  33. I didn't have a 20% coupon, otherwise, I would have taken the chance with them and the Jasmine set, too. It was a good gamble that paid off for you, congrats. To the poster asking for the DCPI - I don't have It, because I didn't buy any. Otherwise, I'd be happy to share.

  35. I love this forum. I mentioned the other day that I had missed out on the B-Wing @ $25 sale. Someone here on the board (I'm not naming names) stepped up and told me they'd be glad to sell me the one they picked up at their cost. I declined the offer - they got the deal, I didn't, and I've already got a ton to build. But I love that there are awesome people here that do stuff for one another like that.

  37. Have you ever had the desire to sell any? Or was it part of your master plan to keep building the collection until a certain point / timeframe. Just curious. To accumulate the mass amount of sets you have without selling a set is pretty amazing. Have you not sold anything at all across the board or just LEGO (I think I remember saying you collected the old Jordan sneakers as well) I personally have just always liked to buy and sell things. I do save stuff as well but for me its full time so income is a priority. back in 1999 was 24 and about to be promoted to a district manager for a retail company and was kind of doing ebay on the side and said screw it I'm going to try to make it work on my own. Everyone thought I was crazy but corporate retail was not for me. 15 years later still doing it.

  38. I think there are plenty of people on this forum who will help the novice sellers out there, just don't ask for a step by step instruction manual. People have to do some homework themselves and the only real teacher is experience. I think many members get upset for instance when a new member comes on the site and requests a list of sets to buy or the best methods when selling. The info is here. Search for it. Study it. Then ask educated questions. The founding fathers of this site hate lazy people.

  42. For those of us that don't lie at the border that they're for our kids, they were $40 in Canada. Plus tax for made them $45. I've sold some at $80 already so makes me wonder what's up with $70?

  43. I also had a couple of $50 requests, but I also ignored them. I so wanted to mock them though! I've sold a couple for $80 already so I'm not going to accept $60 either seapotato. There are a few $65-75 listings on our local CL but those will eventually disappear. Also, I've tried Kijiji and CL and CL is definitely more successful for me, so I've stopped using Kijiji completely.

  47. My prediction - it has another year to go, will retire Jan 2015, leaving a short window before a new version comes out to coincide with the release of the new movie. And I predict it will be a new UCS release, with a slightly DIFFERENT version of the Falcon. No inside knowledge, but this would be fun. :-)
