May I asked how did you know these are still being produced? Are you guessing/assuming, or is there a source that told you it is still produciing? :-)

The wording of the press release is to the effect that production will cease in 2014. No guarantee, of course, that it will be available that long, but that's the official word.

The only announcement that LEGO made is that this will be phased out at the end of the year, no different from probably 90% of LEGO's other sets that have a two year run. It's the rare set (Death Star, Fire Brigade) that is the exception to that rule.

This reminds me of the City Mine... that set disappeared everywhere due to Wal Mart's price mistake (which they surprisingly honored), but eventually they restocked, which is what will happen here. There're plenty of these in the supply chain, and since it isn't a discontinued set yet if the retailers run out LEGO will just make more to fill the orders.
i should have been more clear. i meant that it was gone forever at that price.

All the people that wanted a quick flip have been returning them so the inventory keeps going up, up and away.
Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway?

Yeah these will have no resale value with so many being bought. It's a nice set if you can get it for about $80-$90, the price it should have been.

I'm guilty of the quick flip and return. With the deals on the Vampire Castle floating around I'd rather have something going EOL now vs. later.

I could not disagree more about the resale potential given the unique (and awesome) minifigs alone.

It will do well, just not in the near term, which might be what he was eluding to.

There are much better sets you will see your money come back on. There is such a stock of them that even for the next few years they won't be worth that much.

Plus in another 10 years we will get another.
