My Lego Room: I come here after I fight with my wife to relax/recover. Still working on arranging sets due to spacing issues.

TMI

The undercutting on this is insane. I just matched the low price and dropped to seventh on the list in 5 minutes. Think I'll hang back for now.

Just an FYI for future orders from BN if you check "Make this a gift" then no stickers.

I bought them after Christmas for $30-40 and sold them on Amazon for $120-130 in less than a year. Seems like a winner to me

Grand Emporium for £127.50. Stage 1 is of unknown completeness, and missing its instruction booklet, but stages 2 and 3 are still fully in sealed bags. I've checked and they are all there (and the instructions, but they're out of shot). I'll go through stage 1, find out what pieces are missing, bricklink them, then build the whole thing for myself.

Push them down then raise your price back up.

Where did you find 3oz boxes?

We're going away for Xmas so my parents gave the kids some money for presents ... we went to the LEGO store today to get the train station for our xmas village and we of course walked out with a bunch of stuff. Receipt 1 - Train Station - Ninjago Movie display case - A couple new keychains - Road plate pack with the curve.. was short one! - Free Advent Calendar Receipt 2 - Minecraft Ice Spikes & Ocean Monument - Speed Champs Bugatti, Mclaren, Camaro Drag Race and 2016 Ford GT & 1966 Ford GT40. - Free Store VIP Polybag ^ Would have probably got the Corvette and Audi but weren't on the shelves. When I asked the cashier for 2 receipts so we could separate what the kids owed us from their money, my partner glares at me and says "what's the point, just put it all on one we can figure it out." Knowing how stingy our store can be with promo sets, I knew making two separate purchases this large would be good enough.... but wasn't going to say that at the register. She eventually did figure it out and apologized outside after. Rookie! (Edit - if anyone's looking to unload a set of Ninjago Movie Minifgures let me know :)).

TRU Flash Sale Friends Heartlake Performance School $59.99

Walmart must be making a push to improve their customer satisfaction with in-store order pick-up. Maybe because last year holiday time, Site-to-store was such a disaster. I remember going in for pick-up after Black Friday and having to wait in line for an hour... watching countless people in front of me with their orders "lost", or "can't find right now... come back tomorrow..." etc. Anyway... I went in last week to pick up an item, was served quickly, and was handed this small tote bag... they said it was a free gift for using walmart.com... and "please take the survey online to tell us about your satisfaction today..." A few days later I made another pick up, and got the same tote bag... this time it contained a jar of organic pasta sauce, a bottle of Slimfast, a full-sized Dove stick deodorant, and a few pieces of candy. Not all my favorite brands... but I like "free" ! Went to a different store today for pick-up, and this is what I got: A scented rear-view mirror Xmas tree, and and “personal” note from Sam Walton. Pppfff… I think I like the first store better.

lets face it they dont know what they are doing,I certainly dont.

Toy Planet/Planet Fun Toys, is that you?

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

Let's keep this thread only for retired product updates (set number, name, S@H region). We have tons of other threads devoted to analizing past/future performance of sets / themes.

I do this all the time! If i know my item is well priced, and it has a bunch of watchers but no bites... i'll raise the price by $5 and it will sell pretty quick haha.

My battle station and Lego display

you rule sir! thank you,

Ebay even worse...but the algorithm does help you sell for more and keep you at the top or near the top of the 1st page. I'm assuming a combination of top rated seller status shipping and return policy have something to do with it.... I sold out of the 12 I had listed. Will wait later to list again.

The monitor articulates and is mounted in the clear pass through hole of the desk (which is centered) there was just now way to keep the monitor arm symmetric

Did you watch the BP video about Elves first wave sets? This one had to be deely discounted to make money. I feel the same will happend with 41180. 2 year lives will test the dragons to the max.

407 Fire Brigades, 270 Town Halls, 1346 Palace Cinemas, 90 Green Grocers and 38 Café Corners are the other quantities. Pity the fools who went in hard on PCs at full RRP.

I spent $40 on a bundle of used Lego on Facebook Marketplace. It included a pretty much complete with instructions 75051, 75101, 60067, 42036 (missing some stickers I believe) and what I think to be a partial set of Lego Friends 3061 (no instructions) but I found some of the printed parts match up, but not the minidoll. In the process of re-building and making sure the pieces are there. Don't think I am missing too much but I think I might turn out okay for my first mini-flip.

its a guess. looking at previous mid-November 2014 release of Minecraft wave 1 which were incredibly popular and easily flippable, and didn't come back in stock until Feb-March I am expecting no restockings in 2017 but its all a guess.

According to Bricklink price guide 177 were sold in the last six months and there are over 1500 currently for sale. That's around four years of supply if it keeps selling at that rate.

It’s more about smyths and higher priced sets, than one set in particular. Smyths haven’t moved anywhere near the amount of high priced sets this year compared to the last few. Their 20% off all toys in prior years accounted for most of the sales and the general 20% of every £50 this year, people just stayed away. I don’t know if it’s resellers staying away, Lego slight fall out of fashion (off the 2015 high), People moving to other toys/games, People just spending less overall. But sentiment on high priced sets has fallen of. Mid priced are doing just fine at the 20%+ discount level.

Use a very small amount of "Mykal Sticky Stuff Remover" on some kitchen roll, wiping across the residue so that it does not absorb into the packaging and Bob's your Uncle it's gone and you are left with a nice shine MISB box.

I leave the security things on there. But for the love of Pete, remove the price sticker or "I was ripped off!!!!!!" negative feedback will be a real possibility. Seems obvious but many sellers forget or can't be bothered.

You're kidding me right? You guys are full of misdirection!

Get an American Express...they are 10000% better than any other card I've ever used when it comes to their fraud algorithm. When I used to use Citi or Chase cards primarily, I would have to call in after every third or fourth purchase. With Amex, I haven't tripped a fraud alert in several years.

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

Damn, that's harsh. Bricklink has been very smooth so far but I do think I have my first NPB as it's been sitting invoiced and packed for a few days now and buyer has 0 feedback. You're right, though, whenever you get a message about your swiftness of processing within the day you know it's going to be a bumpy ride with that seller/buyer.

Just finished it WOW Now to find where to put it...

Lego can buy some ToO from my vault

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.

soo.. basically, if I understood this frenzy freaking acting in the US.. we in EU should be perfectly fine to buy these sets later on (like autumn 2018) for a probable 50 per cent off on the official LEGO e-shop (they did this discount both to Ghosbusters and Dr. Who) and be off and laughing..?

Yes 90% of my sets are seal, I will put a list, maybe in a week. I’m busy with my schedule but I’m gonna put a list with prices, if someone buys a few hundred I’ll give a good deal.

And that one new piece is so difficult to use, it increases the target age by 2 years

This beast would struggle on UK roads but plays a part in a bucket list must do of mine... get a massive RV/Camper and tour the States... And No... I'm not a singer, performer or have any apparent talent haha... Just love the idea of Doing the States this way. Until that happens this set will have to do I see so much negativity about a lot of sets and reading some of these forums genuinely started to bring me right down... it's nice to actually not only enjoy a set myself, but see some positivity from others

It is already the rarest - in terms of buyers.

This is how I imagine your storage space to be:

nobody going to mention the arrogant bastard ale on the shelf?

I don't usually post my numbers but since there is a lot of back and forth going on , figured putting some figures out would keep things in perspective .
