Going to leave it up here for another day or two before throwing it up on Ebay.ca Anyone? Happy to trade for any one of these sets: 3658, 3221, 3222, 7287, 7631, 7733, or 7738 3658 - Police Helicopter 3221 - LEGO City Truck 3222-1: Helicopter and Limousine 7287-1: Police Boat 7631-1: Dump Truck 773...

I'm a builder and an investor. About 1/4 of what I buy, primarily liscenced sets I got at a discount go into the "speculation" closet. I plan to open that closet in 2016 to see what I can score money or trade wise. Worst case scenario: more brick for building. I am with you on that. If 3-...

Anyone have some insight on any deals that might be out on the weekend of Sep 2nd to the 5th? I'm hoping to pick a few bricks and hoping there are some deals in NH and MA.

My parents also were not rich but all i ever wanted for Birthday/Christmas was lego. I didn't care about nintendo, sega gensis, etc. So I had a lot of the castle sets, pirate sets, and space sets. Unfortunately when we were moving overseas my father gave them all away...they would be worth thousands...

Basically you're facing the classic "what am I?" question. Assembler = Buys & builds & plays only with sets Builder = Buys, builds, mixes, sells, sorts, etc. Collector = Buys & builds & displays Investor = Buys and waits a few months or years, jacks up the price and makes ...

The idea of buying two is great, but not sure how "cool" it would be with my wife. I at least want to buy two of each one of the modular buildings. Gotta somehow figure a way to make up for it though. @condor want to sell me your double of Cafe Corner? hehehe. I'm dying to get my hands on ...

I can confirm the Border's in Burlington Vermont has cleared out most legos with the exception of two duplo sets with damaged boxes. The only thing left for grabs is Series 4 minifigures. I picked up a few at 40% off.

Hi All, After being a lego fanatic as a kid and having my father give all my lego away when we moved overseas (i had all the castle, space, and some city sets from the early/mid 90's) I have since started collecting again now that I'm 31. My son who is only 8 months old has no clue over what he will...

I visit the TRU stores in Angrignon (Montreal QC), Burlington, VT., and New Hampshire and have seen a number of sets $150+. I must say though, the Burlington, VT TRU doesn't have much of a selection. I try not to go there much anymore since they have no City Set that I don't have.

Hi All, Up for sale or trade (in Montreal, QC) is http://www.1000steine.com/brickset/images/8487-1.jpg Flo's V8 Cafe. Unfortunately it doesn't come with the box but it does come with instructions, and the four sealed bags. You might want to know why I don't have the box? Well, I purchased it a while...

I'll definately be going to NH and MA on the 3 day weekend coming up which ends up being a 4 day weekend for me. I'm here in Quebec at 13.5% :( Planning on maximizing my $400/pp personal exemption.

Aren't they lego.com only items? I bought both when they first came out because I didn't want to miss out.

I'm in Montreal, and I order and have them ship to my Border Mail Services account through https://www.kinek.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; The membership is free and all you have to pay is a few dollars when you pick it up depending on the weight. Last time I shipped ...

Just wanted to let everyone know that Costco in LAVAL has two Lego sets: http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20101210145320/lego/images/thumb/f/f1/3366-1.jpg/250px-3366-1.jpg and http://cache.lego.com/images/shop/prod/5765-0000-xx-12-1.jpg The 5765 is going for $17 and I can't remember what 3366 i...

Drove to Burlington VT to get the complete set of duplo cArs!!

We should all do screen captures of them being unavailable now during the sale...and make screen captures tomorrow throughout the day...and if enough of us have them...we can present a case with consumer rights...

Thanks for this post. i got the Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle for 106$ shipped to Canada...woohoo. Now I just need to find a few more deals like this. Boycott TRU!!

Don't waste your time. I ordered three of these sets on the 25th, they show unavailable on my invoice, but even today they show instock. I have now spent over an hour on the phone with customer service, etc and even though they said it could take 36 hour for the internet to update stock status....we...

MMV now shows out of stock. I didn't even want to waste my time with TRU. I noticed that sears.ca did the same thing to me. Before you add it to cart, it shows instock. You add it to cart no problems. You apply the discount, no problems...you go to check out....it's out of stock?
