  2. https://m.barnesandnoble.com/b/clearance/building-lego/_/N-2o4oZ1hmc 50% off a few sets at Barnes and Noble. Mostly out of stock around me, but if you have one in your area, you might get lucky. Edit: Cargo Terminal 60169 Is at $39.99.

  3. My go to line is that I have a problem and am currently in a support group for it, but it's not working. That usually gets a strange look and then silence as they turn around and leave me alone. Or I say that I have a Lego fetish and will be taking a bath in these. That usually gets the same response.

  6. And we have markdowns! Check your trackers like you are a Colonial Marine on a bug hunt on some company planet. Looks like a few at 20% and some sets that survived that last clearance wave at 40%.

  7. Built the much-maligned 75180 Rathtar Escape for my 5 year old tonight. Actually a clever little build and gotta say, it looks better in person than the box portends. Son loves gobbling the Guavian dudes up with the Rathtars so can't complain one bit. Love the Rathtar builds---look very much like the movie when all is said and done. Purchased from the recent Target sale.

  13. I tell them I sell them if they ask that usually shuts them up . Don’t feel like I need to justify what I do . I do offer them an item to take from the cart if they really wanted one , they never take me on my offer .

  14. maybe - too early to say but there's no price to that giddy giggly rush you get when the incredible 5 year old inside of you comes out grabbing these by the handful and literally shelf swiping 6 at a time in to your other arm . there was an entire endcap of these . 5 shelves. i couldnt' even take them all there were like 16 left. as i'm grabbing sets and giggling outloud to myself, a nearby weathered wizened clearance hag & her future hag daughter at the next endcap over are becoming curious about what could they have possibly missed that i am throwing these down fast and furious like they are kilos from pablo. "what are u - an amazon seller or something?" - why yes - yes i am - what was the tip off?" lol.

  17. Been shutdown a few times, have always been paid (later...never guaranteed, but...). If your salary is decent, never quit a federal job, just don't do it.

  18. And a 16-pocket apron. Seriously though, it's pretty easy to smoosh to figure out the figure inside. IMO, it's better to sell them sealed than to open it and bag them up.

  25. Shopko will be going the way of KMart, Sears, and TRU soon. They just closed 39 stores in the Midwest a couple of weeks ago. I work for Pepsi and we have been told to stop delivering because they haven’t been paying their bills. Once in awhile the stars and planets align where clearance sales overlap with coupons and/or senior day. When that happens you can make some great hauls, but otherwise it’s not worth the trouble. Much better deals can be found elsewhere.

  26. That will be a standard LEGO website glitch. Shipping charges in terms and conditions still state $149. -yep , just tested it. Still $149. Crisis averted.

  33. He was pointing out how ridiculous it is for a store 900 miles away from Chicago to stock a half gross of Chicagos, not that he traveled that far to clean them out.

  34. That is SO INSANE. 72 of those, guaranteed cash money, about to retire, and you got it 50% off of an already 20% sale price. And then 5% red card (I hope). Let's say they conservatively move from 40 retail to 70 as they dry up, probably less than a year for all the B&N to dry up. You're basically picking up 50 dollar bills every time you ship one. $3600 profit in one find. Probably one of the greatest retail hauls I've seen on here. Better than the great Yellow Submarine heist from Target? Maybe.

  35. Ahhhh the classic b&n hunt in the lego aisle because they never mark there stuff.... I usually sit there with the tracker on my phone and hunt and peck. Also, learned to look behind and around everything because the shelves look like a tornado came through Sent from my SM-G900P using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

  36. Sort by quantity. You won't get an exact number but the store with the most will come up first. An hour ago I was in a store and did this. The store I was in was #2 on the list and had 4 of a set, so I knew #1 likely had 4 or more. Sent from my LG-M153 using Brickpicker Forum mobile app

  42. Architecture sets are in a descending cycle now everyone hoards them so I am off too unless 40% or more mark down. I figure Eiffelsat 65% off still have some wiggle room. Arc and Guggenheim seem to be the turds from this year. Buckingham the clear winner.

  43. 60154 is the sort of City set that is quirky and not frequently remade. I´d want half price, same as with Joker Manor. The latter may even make it to 50% off in a month´s time as it is proven that no one apart from resellers buy large SH sets in Europe.

  47. Decent build. The mouth-tail-wing play feature is clever. Box art doesn't do it any favors other than being kitschy. Looks better in person. Kind of a matching companion for the BB8 set.
