As usual a collector who funds his hobby with some sales and brags about it on YouTube. Bravo. I would really pay a (small) fee to see the operation of @ravenb99or @redcellor @landphieran - to see if I am on the right track or just watch some lego warehousepron and see what I can improve.

Shoot I forgot I bought about 10 of those for like $5 each when Walmart was clearing them out. Figured the kids could use them if they weren't worth selling.

That price point works for me and hope the retired version rises above by 50%, but not counting my chickens.

Oh wow, that really does change the look for the better!

$7.50 popped at least a couple times . . .

Flattened boxes, flat like a pancake at Waffle House at 2 AM. My online store pickup penguins were all minty, we will see about the shipped ones.

Box smashed and beat to death....At least in my opinion

They were retail $14.99 on Amazon

I've been watching reviews online. I'm not excited whatsoever about this set. There's just nothing special, innovative, or memorable with the design and building techniques. I will obviously buy it to feed my Modular Buildings collection, but I wont be rushing out to pick it up on Day-1. Right now I'm more curious about the 'pizza van' GWP! 😄

You can use the 10% GCs, just charge $0.01 to your RC and you get free shipping. Worked on a pajama order i placed last week. Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk

https://www.lego.com/de-de/legal/notices-and-policies/compliance/ There you can select even US - I downloaded one document and it seems it covers the compliance documents needed in the US/Canada but I do not know what exactly you need in the US, but its worth a try with amazon. I download all documents regarding sets I possibly want to sell in the future, because after some time after EOL they vanish from the site. You can request the docs via e-mail but its more work and you are dependent on the compliance department and dependance is never a good thing.😉

Oh, I wouldn't mind telling you at all but, if your friend isn't a member of this forum, I can't tell him. Sorry.

How does your wife feel about that? Or are we not talking about the right part of the image? Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk

Magic the Gathering has faced similar fears of people investing in it. Arguably a much easier thing to store and sell and not nearly as "consumable". It hasn't really impacted it yet. Realistically this guy and most "investors" hold more sets than they sell, eventually they realize they have too much and find 3rd party outlets to dump it. Next time i see one of these videos I hope @redcell or @Raven is on WSJ showing us how they do it.

this is like the third time we have seen mainstream financial media get into the bricks as investment. we had forbes in 2019 - https://www.forbes.com/sites/simonmoore/2019/09/28/lego-sets-see-strong-returns-for-investors-beating-wine-cars-and-art/?sh=799aee7871ec 2015 was the first really big lego better than gold investing rush - https://www.cnbc.com/2015/12/28/is-lego-a-better-investment-than-gold.html seems like its on a 3-4 year cycle.

yes for example the adidas mini gwp, higher than normal probability buyer will have thought it was larger set. 1989 batmobile gwp etc

My stores have been wiped out completely since the bf and other sales....Got lucky today and scored (2) AOTB 75980 that were hidden in another aisle......As of today it's sold out all across the board (Pickup/Delivery/Shipping)....Neither it or the chess set even show up in the Target Lego Exclusive section on the website I'll be sure to hit bright and early at both of my stores and maybe i can get lucky again and score some more but most likely both sets are gone!
