You hold onto those. I hear the market is saturated. Check back next year.

Why would we share fake news? We´re not Promobricks.

This is the one time you should have broken tradition and went with a middle finger instead of the thumb.

I bought my first Lego train set! It’s the High Speed Passenger train set (60051). Bought it via eBay for a little under $109 brand new and sealed. I think I got a great deal.

Bought a Winter Village Station at 25% off, and then some train track packs and the $15 Friends Winter car set to get myself over $55 to get the Nutcracker promo. All this at LEGOLAND California.

Well, I’ve been quite busy for the past 6 months or so…but I have been slowly piecing together and building a train terminal that I purchased the instructions from on eBay (https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Station-PDF-instructions-MOC-Building-City-Modular-/152374747648?hash=item237a3e2200). I also did some modifications and customized it a little bit by adding a comic shop and a small convenience store (with stickers from Brick Builders Pro (http://www.brickbuilderspro.com/). It was quite the project and I just finished it, so I thought I would show some pictures to you all. I had some help sourcing some of the parts from my local Bricks and Minifigs store. There are around 12,000-13,000 parts to the building. Eventually I plan on adding a 60051 High Speed Passenger train or two and doing some more changes/modifications to it….but I am going to save that for a later date.

Great timing of that video! I do believe that these Elves Dragons offer something that will be sought after when they're retired for a while and left-over stock at retail has dried up. With the usual disclaimer: when bought at good discount!

Hudson Bay! Many sets are 15% or 25% off: http://www.thebay.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/en/SearchDisplay?storeId=10701&catalogId=10652&langId=-24&pageSize=12&beginIndex=0&sType=SimpleSearch&resultCatEntryType=2&showResultsPage=true&pageView=image&searchSource=Q&searchTerm=lego&x=6&y=3 And you can currently use the promo code "VIP" for another 25% discount. The result is 44% off for sets with an existing 25% discount, and 36% off for sets with a 15% base discount. Shipping is free above 100 CAD. Have fun

Good choice!

They had an end table set up right at the front door at a local Walmart. Sadly only one Clayface but they had a bunch of the four Dimension sets shown. I most likely bought too many.

forget about the return and thinking about 10+ or whatever you sold in the last couple days. I sold some GBH when it peaked last month or so and got 1 return. Price come down more than half. If you ask me how i feel the return, of cause it is not good. Try to focus on the positive and move on.

I love the idea, but I agree something needs added.

Oops. Forgot to mention the coupon. They gave annual pass holders coupons this year, one in October, November and December, for 25% off one item.

Lego can buy some ToO from my vault

Absolutely amazing, i love it!! This station deserves the Emerald Night

Found some scraps at a local Kmart. Maybe I didn’t look hard enough last time. Needed some extras to push me over $100 to use $21 bonus points. Also used some points accumulated during my clearance spree last week. This whole lot ended up being FREE.

Man why make everyone’s life harder . Cancel the order and move on . I would rather cancel right at the beginning than deal with the headache later on .

I can personally attest,to the fact that WM does not have any kind of limitations on Lego sets. I have bought close to a thousand sets over the past two weeks and many thousands more over the past few years all on the same account without any issues. I'm just glad that they lifted their per limit purchase orders so you can order 100 sets at a time.

I'm surprised than people are surprised. this will only get worse . not expecting any meaningful action until Cyber Monday

Hmmmmm, what to do? Send to FBA? Hold awhile longer? Put away for a year? So many options right now.......

Sold half of my inventory for ave £75. Happy to hold the rest until this gaps up to £100. Hope there is a big rush to the bottom for xmas which will clear out a lot of the competition

Quite poor reporting by Brick Fanatics, running a story based on a random throw away comment in a thread. poor journalism

Strange that you bring up ethics on a site where the whole goal is to buy Lego sets and sell them at a higher price later. My charging a restocking fee is not unethical. I have to cover costs like shipping- outside of Amazon's crappy shipping credit. Additionally, I don't know what condition this set will be in when I get it back. If it was opened, it dramatically decreases the value. You don't have to like my business practices, but please don't tell me what to do with my money or inventory. I have heard and seen real shady tactics employed when selling Lego, or anything for that matter. I posted the return not to seek approval, but to make everyone aware that people will be issuing return requests, especially the sales around $100 when the price has now dropped by $30.

Speaking of strange eBay happenings. I check my listed items regularly. I noticed one of my items had 5 watchers on it. I've realised in most cases watchers means other sellers and if people are taking notice then i should probably look at the listing. Sure enough I realised I'd become the cheapest item available by £5 despite me never listing as lowest price. To up my margin to match the market I raised my price by £5 and the item that had been sat for 2 weeks sold overnight. High rated bidder too. I guess pushing up my price scared them into a sudden purchase. Very odd but long may it continue lol

If they've been hacked and have the same password on all their accounts then it's possible. As you say if you send to verified address thats shown on paypal and send recorded delivery you are covered under seller protection but leave a day before dispatching so if it is a fraud case it has more chance of being picked up and flagged to you. Likelihood is though it'll just turn out to be a normal person who only uses their account every so often if they can't find an item anywhere else. Earlier in the year I sold a tumbler on eBay to a zero rated bidder and i worried like mad, checked everything i could, including even streetviewing the address, covered my ass and sent it and it was a perfectly normal customer, easy transaction and good feedback.

Toys R US Speed Champion : BOGO40

If they had two cycles both with power streams on a black base to simulate the scene that would be cool and probably justify a £30 price tag

Time for @exciter1 to pull out his former avatar .....

i bought 20 at target.... last week. no brainer , this set is a quick flip.... not sure for the long run....

Any thought about corresponding labels to bricklink lot types? For example under your plant - whip vine, that is a minifig utensil under bricklink inventory, and the tail vine is an animal body part. I think bricklink's inventory does a very good job of part separation, and it'd be pretty easy to harvest all the categories. No need to reinvent the wheel! It would be immensely useful for people with large bricklink stores or those who are already used to bricklink. Having pictures corresponding directly with correct lot / lot type / item number list would be excellent! If you have a label printer yourself, I bet you could sell sets of the labels as well, especially for those of us who would have no other use for a label printer.

Because that a-hole Luke already killed all the wamprats.

Haven't had much luck selling colanders recently....

Those only got that high thanks to @cory730 buying $45 listings

Would be hilarious if it was available at retail from LEGO Shop at Home and other retailers nearly the entire time people were paying 4x on amazon...oh wait.

Someone just shared this on Facebook regarding WoN. You are essentially copping a feel of their pocketbooks. "The patriarchy of the website "Brickpicker" are the ones buying up all this triumphant women's Lego set and bragging about scalping them. Just MORE men taking advantage of women. They assault our bodies and now our wallets!!!!!"

It’s not so much what we built, but what we didn’t build today. Finally put my future BrickLinkers to work. They did alright.

Finally started building the Sea Cow the kids got me for Father’s Day a couple years ago. I’m about half way done.

My son and I were looking through my miscellaneous boxes of stuff to go through, and we found a used 7623 Indiana Jones Temple Escape I had grabbed off of eBay a couple years ago. No minifigs and no airplane. But it has the important parts. He decided to MOC a little something from it. So here’s his alternative build, with a Speed Champions mini and a Minecraft sword.

Here's half my collection. Like if you like! Six ucs if you include the snowspeeder on the last post!

Built this the other day but put it on the wrong conversation. Like if you like it!!!!

Know what you mean, I hated selling my At-At's and Star Destroyers for double my money last year after less than a year holding, hated it, really got my goat

Got an order from the same person. Looked like they made dozens of orders. Problem was their IP was from India, not New York. They were quickly booted. The theory was they were possibly phishing for personal information by making orders. If yours was from today, then the same person made another round of orders since mine was a couple days ago.

Given how women centric the BBC has become I expect this will be the first news item on the News at Ten when it's released

We moved late last year, so the city has been able to expand: Couple of fun close-ups, Avengers: Grocery War Fantasy courtyard:
