As previously spoken about my breakfast habits. I have now reallocated the milf to a $799 cat bed.

Boston Craigslist buy $150. The ladys ad listed for a week or so with only 2 small pictures and a vague description of what was in the lot. I finally after a week or so inquired about more pictures and being smoke free. She got back to me with a 3rd picture of the books which was sort of underwhelming. She said she was going to update the ad with more pictures and info on how nice the condition is. Good thing I checked the updated ad with multiple pictures showing this was a must buy at 2am this morning. I immediately sent an email saying I'd take the lot and I'd drive the 1.5 hrs to pick up. I was sure by the time I got up at 6am someone else would of sniped it. Well that didn't happen which was great. She replied that we could meet at a TRU. Turns out her 16 yea rold son wanted a computer for school. I see some nice stuff. I'm sure most isn't complete but I really just wanted the train.

Yes

So I was browsing Shopgoodwill last night and I saw this lot I was confused why there were so many bags 4,5,6,7 but nothing else earlier. I was trying to figure out what it was. Meanwhile I was also looking at this lot It took me forever to realize that this lot was only half the Death Star (I was thinking the whole thing was in there) with bags 2 and 3 unopened and the other half was in the other lot.

Conditions do NOT exclude LEGO this time. Applicable up to 10 times. Starts tomorrow.

can't be ?

There are many reasons to auction. I am selling a MF auction style and I started it at $1 with no reserve. It gets a lot of eye balls on the auction and it can go higher because people don't want to lose out. Those eyeballs cam also look at me other listings

It's really up to you @eddie412. I never do anything over 16 oz as "free shipping" because I live on the east coast. For me shipping to California vs. shipping to New York can mean the difference between profit and loss. Other say free shipping attracts more buyers to their listings and it works for them. But I will say, in my opinion when selling Lego, 99 times out of 100, selling auction style is for dopes. I have never found it to be of use to me. Search for the item you are selling on eBay and sort for "sold" items. Compare prices of items sold at auction vs. items sold as "Buy-it-Now". You will almost always find BIN will bring a higher price.

They didn't like your pic , duh

silent mary is 172 at disney store FOHAW : $119.96 BB-8 : 89.96 code : treat no go on Disney Castle.

Wow glad I stumbled across this thread. I was contacted by this buyer about 2 weeks ago. Left his e-mail address and phone number, so I kept in contact with him through e-mail after that so eBay would have no trace of the convo. He asked me to list sets o would be willing to get rid of, so I did, and he made me an offer. I denied it, made him and counter offer and he denied it, he then made me a counter offer on that and I accepted. I can say with confidence it is not a scam, he was very picky about which sets he wanted, and was pretty petty when haggling the price. I went ahead with it. I got paid over a week ago. He got his delivery, I got my credit card paid off. Nice and easy. I find it hilarious I'm the only one who did business with this guy lol.

Little follow-up: The packages from amazon arrived today Three fullsized Walkers in pristine condition in very nice boxes as well. Got lucky this time

Working on flipping my second MILF (3rd if you include selling my spot in line opening day). Sold the last for $1300 cash locally. Got an email from someone interested, lived less than 10 miles away. Asked them when they'd want to meet. Response was "Can you accept Paypal and ship it?". Told them they were close enough that I can just drop it off. They demanded to pay via Paypal and that I ship the box the less than 10 miles down the road to them. Not sure they could make it more obvious that they were trying to scam me, or they're using stolen funds... either way, I want nothing to do with it.

Not today but a couple days ago. Proposed on the London Eye (they have a package deal for you) She said yes. She puts up with me and lego so it was a no brainer!

Thanks! Guess I'll hold off on the station and power functions till Nov..

There's a trick to it... officially it's "No!" afaik, since the flyer says "Available In-Store only" the payment must be made at the store, where as on-line ship to store is usually paid during the on-line checkout. BUT if you have a friendly local manager you can order on-line & ship to store, when it arrives & you pick it up, they can do a return and then sell it back to you at the store if the promotion is still available. Sometimes it's the only way to get some items that your local store sells out of before the promotion ends. If you have a Customer Service person in a good mood (lazy) when you pick up your on-line order they often will just give you the freebie if you just mention it so they don't have to process the return.

FVF on shipping makes sense to get rid of the follk who list in an item cheap then add scandalous shipping costs, thinking the commission is only on the item value. Nothing to stop you adding the Ebay and Paypal commission onto the shipping costs so as not to lose money.

Or if you have something really rare and demand is high eg. LE 75192.

Don't feel that you have to do auction style just because it's ebay. Ebay has changed a lot since its inception and the vast majority of listings on ebay are and have been for some time fixed-price listings. Good luck.

30497 First Order Heavy Assault Walker polybag, sold for €12,50. It was a free promo item.

My mPerks coupon specifically excluded all Lego sets in the toy aisle.

Anyone pick up the Classic Batcave. 28% off $194.. http://amzn.to/2xYIcvS or Walmart https://www.walmart.com/ip/LEGO-Super-Heroes-Batman-Classic-TV-Series-Batcave-76052/47348012

Wasn't assuming anything. I based it on 25,000+ tranactions per year every year. Of course I've been burned and seen just about every scam in the book and will see plenty more going forward as they evolve techniques over the years. It is just a very small fraction of overall business and seems to get made way worse then it is by reading forums. Everyone has there own comfort level of what they want to sell dollar wise online and that is fine. I've sold plenty of things over the years that have raised a suspicion but in the end they turned out fine and I was the one being over reactive. I was just pointing out the risks are not as high as some may lead you to believe in the overall picture.

It is actually a lot harder to get scammed on a higher dollar set. It requires more limit available on the card if it is a hijacked account and they are scrutinized a lot more. (especially over 1k). For now the switch scammers are not after ebay. That seems to have migrated to Amazon more. Most the scams are the hijacked accounts and those are all covered as long as it is verified and eligible for seller protection. The ones that say they didn't get it are always covered with delivered status and actually have had a good amount now where they just deny the buyer outright from doing it multiple times in the past. Same on the returns now. Lots of people open then try to never send it back and escalate it and they also are losing. The hijacked ones are annoying but it is usually cheaper items under $100 I see it on. Minifigure cases are a high target for whatever reason. Guess they have wide fan bases and easy to resell for them, idk. That is probably the highest rate of hijack scams I see chargebacks opened on. I don't see the point to stop selling items in fear of anything when the exact purpose of the high fees we do pay is for there systems to catch these problem transactions. My fees are going towards them processing my transactions and payments and trying to detect what they can. There will always be something new around any system and it is part of business. That being said I've sold 3 so far for an average of $1367 sales price. Have 1 or 2 more coming in this week. They are still pretty damn hard to get and I don't say that often about any LEGO set.

10240 Red Five X-wing for €280 (buy-in was €189). So that's €91 cash profit. Using this sale to pay for my purchase of one 10225 R2-D2 from @Ciglione

Sold a set to a buyer. Feedback was left "Item arrived quickly and in perfect condition!" Message arrived from same buyer stating that the item was in great condition, but they thought it was pretty cheap of me to reuse a box and not put their set in a box that was picked up new from the store. Pretty sure on this order I used a Target shipping box that was in perfect condition. Set wrapped in bubbles and sent on its way. No reason to respond and upset one of our valued buyers with too much money to blow. But I'll have to hack down a tree next time for a fresh box when I see his username appear. At 400% profit nature will just need to take one for the team. I'll plant a sapling in its memory.

Finally got mine! This one will fly across the Atlantic in 12 parsecs ?

He says hello as I sort my stuff out on the floor from this past weekend.

Because I like to stare at it while I eat my breakfast.

Another hint that the Ferrari F40 is going exit. Someone in The Netherlands bought a 10248 Ferrari F40 in a toy-store and the owner mentioned to him that he can't order that set any longer.

fba - 5x indominus rex $249 today alone. repriced higher. guessing this will be a very in-demand set this holiday season. Trex trackers also moving quickly at $149 - i'm almost out but at $49 buyin, it was a nice medium length profitable hold.

Work has calmed down a bit so cracked open this little guy. Great build and some great play features. Looks good next to his buddy.

Just got back from there. Wasn't there when I was in London or I would have lol. Sucks for people who have Lester. Going to go from 2,500-3,000 each to like 1,000.

When your wife is player 2

Even used prices are high. I had no trouble selling a used ghost without a box for £160. That implies that the demand is genuine.

As you may know, the new LEGO[emoji768] Star Wars[emoji769]Millennium Falcon (75192), our largest LEGO set ever, went on sale exclusively to VIP Members on September 14. We are very excited that we received such a positive response from fans like yourself, it exceeded all of our expectations! Unfortunately, that also means the first batch has already sold out. The good news is we are making more as quickly as possible and expect to have very limited quantities available for the remainder of 2017. We have extended the VIP-only access period, which means the new inventory will remain exclusive to VIPs at least through November. To make your wait a little easier, you can now sign up to receive back-in-stock notifications. Simply confirm your interest below and we’ll email you when a new batch of the Millennium Falcon (75192) is available on shop.lego.com If you'd rather make your purchase at your favorite LEGO Brand Retail store, please call or visit your local store starting Friday 9/29 and ask a Brick Specialist to add you to the wait list.

So i did end up getting 1 yesterday. The hype sure seemed to have died down, 30 or so people in line on release day (i was there and turned around when i saw the line), and only 7 of us at the location when it opened yesterday, 4 of them were there since 5am, we got there at 6:30 i believe. They all did sell out though as people came in at opening time and secured the last 4, but damn i could have got a lot more sleep haha. It was fun though, dragged the lady with me to keep me company Pretty sure at least 1 in the line was dirty re-seller scum Still have my backorder, considering what to do with it. Even selling at $100 over is nice because you also get the nice chunk of VIP points, but that would have to be locally, no way i'm risking selling this on ebay. The one i picked up is for building as i'm so impatient, did up to bags 3 last night, very similar to 10179 inside, but seeing all the differences makes it more fun! The interior areas for the minifigs are so cool to build.

I cancelled my order. Taking too long and I'll just wait for double-VIP and a good promo, or make your own discount at another retailer. No tax at Amazon and using rewards sounds pretty appealing.

I spotted a used R2-D2 10225 on Ebay for $150 + $3.96 shipping. It's the best deal I had seen in a bit and was able to snag it about 20 minutes after they posted it. $150 was my upper limit for this set, so hopefully it arrives and is correct and complete.

Well after getting through all 8 films and trying to work out which was the bigger mistake in the prequel films Jar-Jar or Hayden Christensens wooden acting, I finally finished the mighty Falcon. I've no idea where it is going to live until I get my man cave but it was definitely worth every penny. Next up will be to sort out some lighting. Plenty of room behind the engine tubes for led strips and the rear left compartment has plenty of room for a battery box. I don't care what price these get to before Christmas, I'm glad I built mine.

Just got 10217 Diagon Alley, and 4842 Hogwarts, used and (hopefully) complete for £215 delivered. I get to build a couple of great sets and double my money afterwards!

6 months it's game over. Better flip ASAP To quote this guy from Wall St: "No, in ten minutes it's history. At four I'm a dinosaur!"

It´s directly proportional to your income.

I was unable to resist and bought one at TRU for 136€
