Don't give up on those "investigation completed" shipment shortages that they mess up on. This is the 2nd time i've been able to change their mind and get reimbursed in the last month: Greetings from Fulfillment by Amazon, We received your request to investigate items missing from Shipment --------- . We have been managing an increased number of requests, which has caused this unexpected delay in responding to your inquiry. Due to this delay, we have issued a reimbursement to your account for ------------- . Please note that this is a one-time reimbursement, and future requests will continue to be routed through the standard process. This reimbursement is not a confirmation that Amazon lost the inventory missing from your shipment. If we are able to locate the missing item(s) within 48 hours of sending this e-mail, the items will be returned to your inventory in lieu of reimbursement. If we are unable to find the item(s), a credit will be posted to your account in the next five (5) business days.

Titanic docked today! Will need to sell the 10210 to make room to display it. If anyone is interested I am the original owner it was built once and has been on display for around 10 years in a smoke free but not dust free home. I have the box, instructions and all of the minifigures, sails are in great shape. TBH it is not the greatest build in comparison to the new pirate ship but is a nice display piece.

Oh, that happened. Door included, too.

He's the 185lb champ, so he's doing ok.

The best way to get introduced...read the books aloud w/ your 3rd+ graders during bedtime (some themes are dark and maybe holdout till 5th grade for some audiences). I saw the movies first and honestly...it's hard to not have the movie scenes in your head.

It's not an especially good price but yeah, take the whole palette. Let us know how it goes.

I feel like one could MOC a Superman fortress and would also serve as an ice berg

Imperial Flagship is a white whale

Oh trust me. He’s a prized possession. Idk if I’ve opened that Advent calendar yet, but I refused to pass him up.

It goes for $80 - $90, so it will help.

Never know…the skin cream may go for a higher price than the Fiats! [emoji1787] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Each receipt is entered in detail thus giving me an accurate count. All sales are entered as received from the various market places. A year end inventory adjustment gives me my COS -- accurately. If I ran this full time and/or it was my main source of income I see the value of having up-to-date sales, costs and inventory info but right now I just settle for accurately reporting a P&L at EoY. What you do by entering details in IL and just moving the bulk numbers into Quickbooks is something I may look into. I assume IL has a tracking account for sales tax incurred. My way doesn't give me monthly valuations or profitability but I can determine individual profitability pretty quickly when I determine whether or not to send inventory in. Generally I use the 30% rule to determine. Take 30% off the selling price and if the remainder doubles my buy-in I list. I just make exceptions as I go. i.e. categories like HP or SC I may hold a bit longer because they tend to continue to appreciate while other categories I may dump early taking that initial pop knowing there are diminishing returns after that. Sometimes just clearing inventory space of random items in the warehouse is a motivating factor.

True. But my point is that it seems that a lot of people on here take the time to enter all of their purchase data into Excel (or QB or whatever) and then go back and enter their sales data too and think that it is somehow easier. If you were to enter it into a program like IL, then you're done and don't need to also track the sales side of it because it's all done for you. So, it would save you time and effort and also provide you with all sorts of additional functionality and ways to use the data. I don't know off the top of my head how much it costs, but whatever it is, isn't much and I couldn't imagine not having it. The idea that something like this doesn't exist for Walmart is one of my primary reasons for not putting more effort into that marketplace. Just to be clear, I have absolutely zero affiliation with IL or anything like that. It's just that once I moved from Excel to IL, it made my life so much easier and provided all sorts of additional data and functionality that I never had before. I do run my business like a business and I do love data, so maybe I'm in the minority here. But, to me, I could never imagine running a business of this size using Excel.

Jang just uploaded a review and towards the end he lines up a 6 and 8 wide SC charger/Challenger and the 76181. If it goes 40% off BF I will grab one thanks. I have the Arctic Roller and the Joker Low-Rider that are 6/8 stud wide respectively, but they are much longer than the SC well except for the new Dodge Dragster

White sail? Yay LEGO!

How are you tracking inventory in QB? Not by item and just by total purchases based on receipt? In IL, you can keep track of all unlisted inventory. So, my workflow looks like this: I buy an item If it is the first time I've ever bought that item, I create it in unlisted inventory in IL. Once the item is created, I enter the purchase price, date, supplier, qty for that item. I now have an item by item and supplier by supplier record of all of my inventory. Once the credit card receipt is imported into QB I allocate it to a "purchases" account. When it's time to list an item, I add it from unlisted inventory to a new batch in IL and create the shipment. IL tracks the inventory and cost and moves it from "unlisted" to "fba" or "mfn" (fbm) inventory. When it sells, it tells me my exact profit, roi, expenses, etc for that transaction. When my Amazon payment is imported into qb every 2 weeks, I run the inventory valuation report from IL and update that in QB (just one total $ value not individual item data). Now I can see a true p&l and balance sheet in QB and also see item by item inventory, profit, etc data in IL. You don't need to keep track of individual item purchases and costs if you don't want to and just make an adjustment at year end or whatever, but that's not really running a business with updated and accurate Financials. If you don't want or need that, then you're good without it. But if you really want to run this as a business, it's necessary to do it somehow. You don't have to use IL but I find it much easier and more useful than keeping track of item by item inventory in QB. Especially since QB has no idea what inventory you have unlisted, listed, sold, etc.

Give it a bit, and a half dozen of those Speed Champion sets in the background will pay it off. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would buy multiples of this set for a Hoth MOC.

Corner Garage 10264 available @ Walmart.com

This is in Target today. Do you thing worth picking up the whole palette for 46.99 and 5% redcard?

Lol. Good point. Still love the QAR too.

I vote for just adding another shelf. Plenty of vertical space available 😀

76173 is a very similar build to the 70's charger from 75893. I still have yet to buy a 8-wide SC set. Speaking of 8-wide, I noticed in the 3rd round of AFOL crowdfunding there is a beastie looking 8-wide with the 50's diner. Lots of NPU going on.

They will need a leader

I want the snow trooper battle pack for my winter village.

They literally made the AT-ST based on the dinky alternate AT-ST that appeared in the background during the Battle of Hoth 75153 will retain its value based on looks alone, as it represents every other version of the AT-ST that is shown in media

hahaha I had the same thought when I read it, but figured it wouldn't be information that would be shared. But, I had the exact same thought as you did!

Probably Worriz Fire Bike. I've been eyeing that myself.

This quote is one of those things when you see it at the end of a thread you can't scroll up fast enough to get the context.

I need to watch these someday.
