I don’t collect the helmets and the AT-AT driver was my first and will be my only. I think it looks cool. Stickers suck. Mainly got it to go with my UCS AT-AT.

the joys of selling on Amazon, Amazon will pay me for the lego and I get a free dinner

NGL, I get it. I've had less than ideal experiences with best buy, but lately they've actually done a decent job. I posted mostly to let other know it might be worth it for you if this is a set you were wanting, for personal use or investing.

Decided to grab my 3 missing modular before the tariffs hit. Got each for slightly below market value - paid $2.2k before taxes, including a whole lot of replacement parts for yellowing. The Green Grocer had all the white very yellowed which I replaced. A lot of LBG parts were yellowed too, but most I could place in such a way that it wasn't visible from the outside. For Market Street there was minor yellowing on the white, but almost all the light blue had severely yellowed. I was again able to turn the bricks in such a way that it wasn't noticeable. Surprisingly, Cafe Corner was pristine. I now have all the Modulars (but not all of them built yet). That's next on the list. People say these early modulars are not as fun to build as the newer ones, but I had a blast doing this. Probably fueled by the fact that sometimes you are holding a $30 part, or a handful of rare slopes at $3 each. Guess that's the investor in me ;-) Sent from my SM-A326U1 using Tapatalk

We must be really starved for deals if we are bumping 2.5 year old threads for no apparent reason

The top brass at Best Buy is popping champagne corks..... we did it boys, we delivered a box!

I finally added the Space Statie fig to the collection.

Here's a quicker look for those who don't have 2 hours to watch the video

I'm such a sucker. Let's go!

Good thing you waited, no 2X points but you can get this lovely GWP.

I grabbed the new Tudor Modular to build with 10% off GC, thanks @Brick also used $30 in points, Flowerpot and Micro Space GWP, 5% CB RMN. This is only my second order from Lego this year besides the 2 BLD sets. I still have 8 sets above $200 on my Wishlist. Even though Lego had record profits last year and according to Jim and Shane's latest videos there has never been a better time to get into lego reselling, I am not seeing it.

Gee, thanks! 🙄 I just spent over $600. 🙃 I sell 200-300 elves a year in my BL store and I've been waiting for those Elf Hats to come back in stock.

Reminded me of this one from 30 years ago:

This DewBricks video is pretty great: https://www.instagram.com/p/DGluasDvIOr/

Hey Brick Pickers, We are excited to announce a preorder for this F1 Series. Use code "F1-Brickpicker" to get 10% off the series! Box - $154.34 (with code) Set - $53.54 (with code) Preorders begin shipping May 1st. Happy Building, Jon

Star Wars: 40795 Luke Skywalker (Pilot) BrickHeadz & the “Tantive scene” inside the logo set (via fateful_04)

The shire is nasty hobbits to me reminiscent of 1980 huge base plates taking up most of build with those ugly green slope pieces middling side builds just unimpressive. How can they do so amazing with Rivendell and present this rubbish of a set????

For the few people that haven't seen this already, the Captain Rex Microfighter is 48% off ($6.79) at Amazon, limit 3. If you have both a business and a personal account, each account can order three.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CV2DXNBP

Everyone should know this one?

I'm old enough to have taken a date with me to see Styx's Grand Illusion tour in 1977. I was 17 years old.

I gained a lot from this site. That said, the core members imo are more experienced and bigger players relative to the discords who are newbies. The newbies bring a lot more energy and post every little sale or strategy that they learn and discuss it with the passion that comes along with being a newbie. Every single deal (and non deal) gets posted. There also are some pretty freaking sophisticated bots built in. Its way more of a social scene. The experienced ones here have business models that work for them and sourcing strategies that they arent necessarily inclined to share. So it makes sense to be a quieter forum. For deals >>> I look elsewhere For leaks >>> I look elsewhere For amazon/WM/ebay related issues, this place is tops, everyone is very helpful and gracious with sharing info. Same for more mature sophisticated investing opinions. The discords are full of rookies with no real sense of the market for the most part.

We will get the typical increase in activity come October, but a lot have happened in the last 12-14 years, and sadly the sire didnt keep up with it. at least most that still post are core members and keep me updated on what's happening

Market Street - Art Nouveau Edition by Sleepless Night

We need More MODs

Back. Amazon.com: LEGO Holiday Main Street Building Kit, Christmas Village Adult Set for Families, Holiday Display Set with Shops, Streetcar and 6 Minifigures, Christmas Decoration to Build Together, 10308 : Toys & Games Limit 20. @retail $99.99

I think it looks like crap. That boat is terrible. Add the fact that Bag End is over-priced...I am having second thoughts of getting this day one.

From thebrickfan.com: https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-75367-Venator-Class-Republic-Cruiser/dp/B0CJ7W6QTW/?th=1 LEGO 75367 Venator Class Republic Cruiser - 535.50 (~18% off). Sold on Amazon.com by Amazon Japan. Not sure what condition to expect for such a large set being shipped internationally, but decent deal for a person build.

Ebay has a tiered promo with coupon code SHOPANDSAVE. One of the eligible sellers has several CMF lots, including factory sealed boxes of Series 27 for $154, before coupon savings ($10 off post tax for orders $150+). Ends up being 20% off versus buying a sealed case at retail. You can buy multiples to get the seller savings and hit another tier, but the tiers are less lucrative the higher the purchase total (i havent done the math to see if the bulk discounts offered by the vendor offset the loss in savings from the coupon).

Anyone hear getting gated again. I was just talking to some sellers this morning that there are sweeping gates that have been going on on many brands. They are not big time into Lego by any means, but they were gated there "again" after being ungated after the holidays. Also, where previously you had to provide receipts with purchases showing quantities of 10 to get ungated on products, the bars were raised into the hundreds. This game is getting pretty risky. Amazon is either gating sellers, not allowing listings, or taking the listings for their own stock post retirement. It's been fun, been doing it since the early 2000's, but getting hard justify taking a large position with this stuff anymore. Cool new GWP but without a viable platform to sell it on what do you do? There's no listings for the items I would buy anyway. 😔

10% off Lego gift cards at https://www.giftcards.com/us/en with promo code Shamrock. I got three orders for $500.00 so far. I could not get it to process payment for more than that much this time. I don't know what their limit is. I bought two $1000.00 late last year ( saved it for the Series 4 Bricklink Designer Program ). Do not forget to opt in for the Giftcards.com Rewards program and use it to lower the cost of subsequent orders. Plus 2% cash back from Rakuten.

NO! I never complain. That was @Billy Brick

The one nearest me became a Big Lots which just closed, ha edit: I totally missed exciter's post - I should go to bed, stupid spring forward.

Used items from overseas can be subject to the possibility of tarriff’s so depends on where he bought them. Just paid some myself …

Thank you ponderingzissou, you just saved me $7 back on my order from last week! -- I was able to price match through the app without speaking to an agent which was a first for me, pretty awesome!

Should be a Five Nights At Freddy’s theme.

Horrifying death stare, sausage hands, and sanded down foot nubs. Should be a Halloween release.

I've actually never even tried creating a listing or learning how -- been no real need to.

I'm waiting to see if they do double points. Seems every time I jump in early they follow up later with 2x
