How many bells will it take to complete your collection? Will you need to pick up odd jobs and sell random things to your neighbors? Can you ever truly pay off your debt to Tom Nook?

September 1st 2083 pieces $200 I always wanted 10117 Boeing 787 Dreamliner glad I held off.

Interesting to see what they're doing with the Nintendo license. Now if Zelda got a series of sets (and possibly minifigure series) that would be amazing. I'll wait for that.

No... maybe a microfig flight attendant. The toilet is a great touch, though.

thanks @Pseudoty lego and barnes and noble have them : )

Yup. I was surprised as well. The buyer used their real name, which is what caught my eye. Using the address and some other info I was able to verify it to be legit. Looking up the address and seeing the house/neighborhood was wild! Yes, this was Ebay.

Perhaps she didn't make a video about how this is a great time to buy retired sets because it isn't a great time to buy retired sets. As far as I'm concerned, she basically hit the nail on the head. There are more sellers than there have ever been and the resale market is saturated to the point that it's harder to make money these days than it was in years past. There have been a few bright spots with sets that have retired over the last few years, but far fewer than there were for sets that retired before 2020. I've been amused at watching how the content made by the people who are trying to monetize their knowledge of LEGO investing...it's a lot harder to come up with constant O face-worthy content when retired sets aren't popping left and right like they used to. Someday those people are going to wake up and realize that the money they could have made if they had kept their mouth shut is far greater than whatever money they made from their ancillary revenue streams creating content. Their egos wouldn't be as well fed in that counterfactual, but their bank accounts would be much fatter. I'm sure you did great if you sold gold in 2016 and invested the proceeds into LEGO, but how much of that came in 2016-2020 vs. 2021-2023? Finally...did she run over your dog or dump you or something? The sexist attacks on her were as uncalled for as they were stupid.
