ARCHIVE - LEGO Forums (2009-2017)

Ok. I'm cool with that. Thanks for the honesty. I you read some more on these boards you will see the craziness. Btw I suck at stocks and bonds, but this works for me.

You'd laugh if you saw what I wrote and pulled after second thought. Cheers.

This guy/gal, the original poster has done an excellent job squeezing out tips and tricks from some of you. I was about to defend here too when I read the post and decided not to. I don't know his or her purpose or what they are trying to gain here for info, be careful what you divulge.

jjet, personally I wouldn't waste your time with the sets I mentioned and you saw. Procurement costs will kill the deal, later on. You got to think about the entire circle of your investment including what it will cost you by the time it reaches your ultimate customer. You might be surprised.

I was looking at the witch last night at target thinking the same. The Lego set in the poly bag.

I saw that too and picked two up. After gift card , I got both for $45 ea

I found lots this time. The bigger priced sets with a newly opened toyrsus card equaled (x+10%)-25%-10% plus a free 10 gift card plus $10 off more after spending over a $100... That last part only worked on certain sets. But this was a big buying opportunity if you got the right csr helping you with...

Yes the hair dryer works well. Works good on cardboard boxes that shipped items come in also. I had experience with wiz and it was not about buying. I would suggest you keep your items and list them for what you want and turn on the new international shipping option, it ships to an address in the US...

There were a few signs out, but I remember that one sticking out. I think there was a star wars set also. It was in one of the Boston area stores.

I couldn't believe it when I saw the small card next to the set reading retiring soon at the Lego shop in the mall a couple of weeks ago. I don't see it online listed that way at shop at home, but looks like Lego is finally ending the drama at least by displaying it that way in the store. Would have...

Wonder how EBay is handling. Every listing except rus has a zero next to seller I'd where the price is less than 200.. Anyway not my issues, but interesting to watch.

Ok, I got to ask the question....I have been watching eBay and the sales of these things and I find it interesting that there are many selling for $96 to $99 range. However ALL those sellers have a zero next to their name. How are they making any money on these? Are they phamton sales? Makes no sens...

Yeah, it would be interesting for a web page to post, just not sure legal, but I think eBay is doing a lousy job alerting and blocking the dishonest ones.

Would like to know if there is a site that exists that shows or allows you to see eBay user names that people have blocked or recommend to. I experience 1-2 dishonest people a year it seems. Maybe that's not so bad?

Geese, I just notices PayPal just raised their rates to over 4 percent.. I remember it's was 3 percent...Time for new competition to come in....

I have always found coupons in the tourist books that you can get at the entrance of a golden corral or anywhere that has those small coupon books at gift shops around Orlando. I have seen coupons that say $7 off a $70 purchase or $5 off a $50 purchase in those booklets.

Good info....I have been selling on eBay for several years and one crippling thing they changed was about a year ago dropping a 20 percent discount they gave me for being a top seller. They dropped the discount on you if you don't offer expedited shipping and don't offer returns. I am ok with offeri...

How does that work? I thought amazon had much higher fees...

Curious how many here sell on Ebay or BrickLink or Both. Noticed that Ebay recently increased the fees again...

I will not waste my time trying to buy Lego from bn.com. After several days they just cancel your order. I even placed an order for the minecraft and that just got cancelled too, even though it's in stock! Btw this isn't what I originally tried to purchase, as everything was just randomly cancelled....
