  1. Maybe it's just my age (60) but there comes a time in a man's life that you aren't willing to jump through all the hoops. If B&N wants to sell to me, fine. If they want to play their silly little games then they can kiss my fat ass. There is too much other low-hanging fruit out there.

  8. I recently had some friends help me consolidate all of my inventory from storage units and my home to a warehouse unit. They originally thought it was cool to be a Lego lord. They rescinded that statement and feel bad for me LOL.

  9. I rarely buy used lots of Lego. This popped up on Facebook and ended up getting it for $300. Still havent gone through all of it . Several sealed sets in there aswell that will take a good dent out of it.

  11. Sold through a healthy stack of 41329 Olivia's Deluxe Bedroom at $50 FBA over the last few days. 3x RRP and more ($15 set). Also marks me passing 200% lifetime ROI on all my LEGO sales (3000+ sets sold and counting). Nice hobby

  13. They did, about two years ago. It's easy and looks great. That JK Brickworks is a genius! If they ever have a LEGO HOF, he should be in the founding class. Anyone could build a face but his design uses pieces from the build with no added bricks.

  18. Today I grabbed a Slave I and a few Rise of Voldemort's at the local LEGO store. Got the Dickens and BB8 Promo. Christmas tree Promo seems to be gone. I've been hitting up the nearby LEGO Store every couple of days this past week - A few observations for any who might care: 1. This store is letting you choose between Dickens or Ice Rink. 2. This store is enforcing a 3max per set rule. 3. Lion Dance and VW Bus were the only ones TAGGED on the shelf as "Last Chance". 4. Fast Sellers: VW Buses sold out pretty quickly at 20%. Chess sets sold out pretty fast. 5. Slow Sellers: On the clearance table seem to be the same TLM2 Sets, the same Toy Story 4 10770s, and the same Donut Shop Openings of which they have a ton, 20% discount. Steamboat Willy doesn't seem to be flying off the shelf at 20%, and Tantive IV seems to have several, as I bought a couple and the shelf gets restocked. VW Bugs don't seem to be shooting away at full price either. 6. Slave I's at 20% seem to be trickling in occasionally. 7. Despite them telling me it sells well, I have not seen a single person purchase a Monkie Kid set.

  22. And their training is, specifically, not to intervene in those instances. We're taking the wrong approach. Gentle, complacent, and peaceful reselling projects an image that we can be abused without repercussions. If we adopted the element of danger and violence, they may incorporate resellers into their employee intervention safety training. Time to start showing our colors, brothers (and sisters)

  24. @raindog I've been looking for a solution like that near me. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find anything. I am torn between receiving packages at my home, which normally isn't terrible, or setting up a keypad and camera system at the warehouse so the delivery drivers can just drop everything there. I'm weary of giving them access to the warehouse however it would be VERY convenient. This past week we received personal uhaul trucks twice a day with teams of 3 people unloading stuff into our garage. If they were spaced apart enough I had enough time to clear room for the next unload. One day I didn't and I had the girlfriend pick up a uhaul, so we could take the overflow away from the house. I'm sick of having to do stuff like this so I'll probably accept the risk on the warehouse deliveries and invest in some good security and increase my insurance. Alternatively I'm trying to figure out if USPS or UPS would allow me to ship my items to a post box at their location, then pay for a once a week drop off so i can be there.

  28. Yeah, that's not very good logic. That's about as smart as LEGO shipping throwing the keychains and promos in first and then stuffing the sets and packing on top before forcing the box shut to tape it.

  33. This is an important thread to resurrect from time to time. Newbies need to know the horror of this set. Someone on Reddit used paint and modeling clay to turn Jyn Erso into Ahsoka Tano. This set may finally be moveable.

  40. My hands were messed up because of eczema. I tried lotion and aquafor and while they help, they don't heal my skin. Per my wife suggestion, I have been applying squalane oil on my skin 1-2 times a day for the past few months, and bit by bit the dry patches went away and no more itchy skin. Sure the eczema came back when it got dry again or when I forget to apply the oil for days at a time, but as long as I use the oil it keeps it away and my skin have been restored to its more youthful version. I also put on hydrocortisone or triamcinolone acetonide on an as needed basis. The squalane oil I use is made by Biossance and it's made from sugar cane, not from poached whales.

  42. Probably someone who's bitter about life in general. They get more upset with someone possibly reselling something they buy rather than someone who would steal it to resell later.

  44. Land Bounty just came back in stock at Target. I tried placing an order and got insta canceled. I think I overdid it last week. I've had most orders in the past week canceled from Target. But, I was able to get a small order of full priced LEGO to go through. It looks like any order that includes any of the BF/CM sets that are still on sale gets insta-cancelled. Anything without those sets goes through. At least so far anyway!

  46. Just a reminder to everyone - and this isn’t directed at any one in particular as we’ve all been guilty lately - this thread is for posting of deals. We’ve been lax with the cross talk lately, but as the holidays approach, and potential deals come around, let’s keep it to a minimum. Instead, I encourage you to check out all the other forums we have. There’s a topic for just about every set out there. And if there’s not, create one! We have topics on speculating what’s going to retire, investment strategies, clearance at individual stores. Please go check them out. Thank you!
