  1. If they’re making money on the content, good for them…I don’t think making content is stupid in and of itself. What’s stupid and short-sighted in my mind is someone who is trying to make a serious go if it reselling LEGO and at the same time creating content instructing other people on how to invest/resell. While you’re still operating at a relatively small scale (e.g., less than $300k/year in sales), it’s easy to get lulled into viewing the reselling world through a “rising tide lifts all ships” lens and mistakenly conclude that the market is so deep that the scope and extent of your competition doesn’t matter so why not train up a bunch of new resellers if you can generate some additional revenue off of them. However, if you scale past that point, the effect of competition starts to become more pronounced and easily identified. If the content creators are really aiming to build a sustainable reselling business, teaching other people to do it too is a profoundly stupid thing. If they are trying to leverage knowledge about reselling as a primary source of revenue, it’s not stupid at all. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  4. Gee. Somehow I must have missed that…I also missed the part where the Macks and other posters distill essential points of reselling into easily digestible content that any slack-jawed yockel who read about how LEGO is worth more than gold can find, consume, and get well on their way to getting in the game.

  6. Don’t be a #3 Pseudo says NO! Based on current sales, or lack there of, unless it remains a Lego Exclusive with a 1 year run and we see a 40% off Camp Nou like Sale 4 X 31120 > 1 X 10305

  9. $290, which seemed like a lot at the time. The recent price increases made it look a bit better but it will still be hard to get 100% after shipping and fees. If you want one, your best bet is probably the next few weeks on ebay. I'm sure there are some quick flippers who end up making $50 or so. Looking at that, I always feel there should be a bigger offline market for the expensive sets. Cutting out Ebay and shipping saves so much money.
