I had to make a few changes to the way this alert system works because it it actually too fast with the updates and too efficient. It was costing us a small fortune to send out SMS messages for items that people were not really interested in buying. You will need to go in an check your items to make sure you are receiving alerts on the sets that you want. You will now have the opportunity to select either email and/or SMS for each sets for each store that you are interested in. There is also logic in there tracking purchases (mostly Amazon since they have the most changes). That will disable SMS alerts after a while if no purchases are made. You will still always get email alerts, but there is no need to bombard people with 100 SMS alerts if you are not ready to purchase that set at this time. Hopefully this will keep your phones from going crazy as well as keep you up to date when stock is available. It is also keeps the system Free for people to use.

Sold 2 x Ninjago 70503 Golden Dragon for 70 euro each.

Great work on the site guys, it has started me on the path to owning way to many sets lol. Just bought some vw T1 camper vans and some ghost buster cars. Love the investing forum, read hours already, great information and hope to learn and contribute anything i can!

Hey man if the UCS DS Storage Box has gone EOL, the DS will follow for sure... That's the kind of inside information I've been waiting for.

If owned, I would also get out w/in months since City is refreshed so often. In the last year, we have had 3 city explorer type sub-themes. Coast Guard, Arctic and the up-coming underwater sets. Demand will decrease sooner or later. 2x retail if awesome for a City set that can still be had in various parts of the world.

Used Simpsons house and Simpsons minifigure set for $150.

Wal-Mart 4x GOTG: Milano - $11 each 4x GOTG: Milano - $20 each (random stop on the way to the mall with the family) 2x GOTG: Nowhere Escape - $25 each (same random stop) Target 3x Technic: Hot Rod - $19.98 each

At kaufhof you get the payback 10 times points so another 10% off. Looks like death star and ewok village are gone like x wing two weeks ago. So there is a new hope.

Looks like somebody is stashing lego around the Langley target Saw some stars wars by the vacuum section.

This is terrific. There's nothing I need more than my 5-year old daughter believing private jet flights are something I am able, capable, or willing to provide.

Know when to walk away, know when to run...away from Chima clearance. Edit: I can't believe I quoted "The Gambler" for my 2000th post. Hangs head in shame.

I'm sure Tabby is going to buy loads

OK I just sold a Galaxy Squad Galactic Titan for $90. Its in a postal zone that will probably cost me about $5-6 freight. What is this world coming to?

A lot of a-holes out there needing a good wipe.

Nicely done. The Knowheres and Milano will pair nice and at that buy-in you will have some healthy returns.

supposed to be. This and the new shuttle

There's that big set that was supposed to be the new Millennium Falcon.

I'm a lot less bullish on the ice breaker. I think the best set at retail is the mobile outpost, then the base camp, then the ice breaker. By best I just mean what you get vs playability vs likelihood kids are getting these as gifts. The helicarrier is a pretty crappy set IMO and the other two smalls are easy buys right now for parents and there is still lots of them on shelves. To me this means the base camp and ice breaker could be winners but the icebreaker has to reach pretty big numbers in Canada to turn a healthy profit. And with the new underwater explorer and ultra agent ships looking good I'm just not sure. If you get the base camp at 20% off, you'll be ok at $150+shipping (CDN) which isn't unreasonable.

Galidor Luke. All have been said.

leave it on. If you don't and its lost for some reason or doesn't show delivered you will be out. Same rules apply, it just has to get to the KY address. To much mail has been "undelivered" of late. Think the excess they are receiving from everyone boycotting UPS / Fedex dimensional is over burdening them. Seen a ridiculously high amount of items not get there since mid January. Most of mine were delivered so I won the cases but last week had 2 to the same lady that were not delivered and had to refund.

I found a thorough article on how to find Target's DPCI number. Most you may already know all the various spots or not. Either way I found it to be helpful.

Yeah, it's a cool designed theme like. My son likes it as much as the coast guard one. I expect the deep sea one to also be well-liked.

Been in and out of stock nearly every day for a while now. Amazed at how many of these they have. That said amazon price seems to be stable.

After a (comparative) lull in February, sales seem to be picking up again and MISB EBay prices are now upwards of 400 euros. There is definitely potential for this set to hit GG prices eventually.

They're selling for more than 2x RRP in Canada on eBay not including shipping. This set is rare.

Hey! I'm quite new here but thought that i would share with you my latest BrickFilm Its based on Lego Minecraft and an ordinary day there.... Don't like Minecraft? Check out my Lego Uptown Funk! Music Video: Thanks for reading

I agree... sell all at Xmas 2015. Take your money and run!

I am also curious about when the sweet spot to sell this one of will be. On one hand it is a 50 euros city play set so gains won

Orc I have had many-a-discussion with The Misses over exactly the point you are making regarding Mini-figs Versus Mixels. A mini-fig is four bucks, and is less than ten pieces. A mixel can typically have 70+ pieces and is only FIVE DOLLARS. From an otherwise fair and straight-forward company this is ridiculous. $2.50 would still be a significant profit-margin on a Series-based mini-fig... four dollars just looks like greed. It's our only major disappointment with TLG. I don't mind paying a premium for Licensed products- understanding how many channels of payment are required. But for a tiny portion of ABS, non-licensed plastic to cost four dollars actually does the company a disservice.

Haha, nickelback is worse. :)

I had actually forgotten about this set. No lie. Thanks for the welcome reminder. $390? That makes me very happy.

IMO, the bulls will be running on R2 for a very- VERY long time. Virtually no chance of a re-hash for a little bot that is one of the most iconic characters of one of the most iconic films of all-time... and who's presence and popularity will only increase with the slew of SW films to come (in which- worth noting- He will be featured). I would hypothesize this set goes well into the $1,000+ range, and faster than many would imagine. Again, just IMO. Hold. Store, forget about, and hold. Even with the hoarding, long product run, and opportunity to acquire, the exceptional popularity and demand for this set will override the volume acquired by "folks like us". ________________ Additionally: Both WVM and the SW AT-AT are virtually extinct at the retail level... both, as of this post, are currently available at MRSP @ amazon US. Well worth a look.

They're "In-Stock" at every Wal-Mart near me. I saw them 6 deep on the shelf today. There is talk of the recent price spike here: http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/11153-10225-ucs-r2-d2/page-84

Trust me...it's not pulling teeth for me to go back into any of the shops at LEGOLAND. I needed to pick up some more Easter sets.

I sold my first duplo ever! Part of 75% off of latest WM clearace. Sold three sets for $57 shipped, buy in was $19, will more than double up after fees and shipping Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Brickpicker mobile app

Two more 40086 Easter Bunny and two more 40121 Painting Easter Eggs

Ok, I will message you later. Ex Astris, Scientia. All prices in US funds.

A 10233 Horizon Express that popped up on SAH the other day under Sales and Deals for $116.98. It must have been a return. It shipped today.

I don't understand why people will pay $60-$70+ for 200 gray cylinder pieces but it makes for a nice profit.

While irritating, I would thank him for his response and say that you're looking forward to receiving the item and leave it at that.

Respectfully, I think you are over-thinking it. Hits and eyeballs make forums more successful and increase the value of a forum. If the Macks ever sell this place, it will be more valuable with more users and posts, not everything condensed down as far as possible. My goal with the Travel thread (which I believe prompted this thread) was to find good deals and eventually get a meetup together and I think that it would have taken off. We have high net worth individuals who are good at spotting deals and I don't think they will think to post Travel deals individually in the "non-Lego Deals" section...too tedious to find the section, then create a thread. I've posted deals here and helped this forum for 2 years. That travel thread was gonna be gold. You are limiting the freedom of the members you count on to make this forum work.

I have slowly been accumulating the rare pieces for a green grocer. Just ordered 35 sand green 8x1 off bricklink. A seller had a decent sale on them. Need 15 more and I'll have all the sand green pieces plus the 1x2x3 windows. That much has taken a year, rest should be easy.

On a side note, I'm piecing together the old arkham from a bulk lot. It's actually a lot cooler than pics give it credit for Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Brickpicker mobile app

Check out this one, I think this guy does some amazing modifications to existing modulars: Sjaak Lego 10246 XL Mod: Full collection of his photos HERE. Our family is working on the DO now, the detail is amazing. We primarily display our modulars but damn, building this thing is incredible. For us, the best part is the building and this is the most fun we have had building a modular yet. Every modular just gets more and more detailed and the building techniques keep getting better. Can't wait for 2016..

Around here at least this set has been impossible to find since before Christmas. It was in the top 20 on Amazon's best sellers list for a while. I personally think it is a very unique set and once it is gone I don't think there will be anything similar to replace it for a long while. Currently it can only be found at Amazon and LEGO LEGO Shop at Home I believe. It is $85 at amazon.co.uk. What does everyone think about this set?
