I wonder if they'll backtrack because of the history of this beast?

Not quite a "daily deal", but I popped on my Discover account today and noticed the 5% cashback for Oct-Nov-Dec is Amazon/Target/Walmart websites. Make sure you activate that badboy and clear your balance.

It took all of July, but I finally finished sorting out all of my brothers and my own vintage bricks. Now I begin the process of slowly reassembling all of the sets. Yellowed white bricks galore, peeling stickers and STAMP everywhere. Would really love to have updated stickers that solved this issue, especially for sets like 6350 (Pizzeria) and 6335 (Indy Car Transport). But the worst, 8143 (Ferrari F430 Challenge) You cannot even disassemble this car with out destroying the stickers.

I'm guessing that it is probably cheaper for USPS to just pay overtime to their drivers rather than to hire the extra personnel they would need after you factor in benefits for the new people. This is pretty much it. Because of the really stupid law requiring USPS to pre-fund retirement accounts it is infinitely more expensive to hire a new body than it is to pay OT to existing ones. I agree that OT is not a healthy business model but the blame for this lies with the Bush administration and the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act.

I think Doc Brown said, “Limits? Where we are going, we don’t need limits.”

So for today... Two little ones - Republic Troopers vs. Sith Troopers (75001) purchased on 2/132014 for 9.54 and sold for $40. After expenses a profit of 20.33 or 213% The second one - CHIMA!!! Lion Tribe Pack (70229) bought for $5.01 on 8/8/15 and sold for $30. After expenses a profit of 16.07 for a return of 320% (A return of 320% and Chima in the same sentence - something you thought you would never hear!!!)

Are you not entertained?

Rumored for November release: https://www.thebrickfan.com/lego-creator-roman-colosseum-10276-rumored-for-november-release/ thats a lot of pieces!

the proliferation of delivery vehicles is not a good thing...a 10 year old on a bike was killed by a UPS truck in my town of 15K this has got me thinking about what it means to "run a business" in my residential neighborhood that adds to this problem.

Holy!!!! They must've scavenged those boxes from water ....

that picture is the stuff of nightmares for BPers. it's like that shower scene in Psycho...haunting...or in my case the image of the wet hair girl from The Ring...honestly, I'm 45 years old and I still freak out at night thinking she's standing at my bedside (movie I saw over a decade ago)

I can't access anything. I just updated the terms this morning but maybe that's not the issue with that is you all are having 404 error codes as well.

I just added this disclaimer to my $200+ listings [Due to the high price, please expect messaging through the Ebay system to clarify and confirm sale details; set will not be shipped until confirmed messaging by the buyer] I know this won't protect me from all scammers...but it's an additional filter

Seriously. This is a LOT better than getting an unauthorized transaction dispute well after shipment and receipt of the item. If eBay is catching the scammers before you ship, why stop selling? There is ALWAYS a chance someone will attempt to scam you, better to sell off before scammers adjust their way around eBay's current defenses.

Those are most likely old abandoned accounts. Another way to look at this: eBay is getting better at catching these scammers. In the old days these scammers would be able to get away with this crap without being detected.

fixed it for ya'

I was looking at the new Indominous Rex set and I need to correct myself. It is NOT the same Indominous as the one LEGO released a couple of years back. Same mold but different colored spots.

Uh....isn't anti-war a good thing? I think the majority of people are anti-war.

I thought that too. With their stance on war and backpedaling on the Osprey, coupled with the history of this building, I wonder if it will actually become a reality? Although, i'm sure they'll find a way to spin it.

There could be a potential flaw with the set, causing it to crumble, making it look ancient and disheveled.

Look at Stuart behind him, he's creeped out, too!

@Jeff Mack Is there any light at the end of the tunnel on Brickfolio? Hope all is well

Someone just sent me an offer - stating that it was a fair price, based on the original msrp, adjusted for inflation.

None of mine have been new. Always 5-10 year old accounts, recently active buying/selling, and with a decent amount of feedback. It just seems like there has been a massive data breach recently that hasn't been reported yet or something if so many people are suddenly claiming their accounts were hacked.

Yes. I have stopped selling on eBay for the time being after having literally half of my sales recently end up this way.

Zavvi and DHL, you broke my heart [emoji51]
