CNH1974 Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Its an exclusive in the UK so it has a higher than normal ebay price over here. Bit like the Orc Forge in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MillerTime Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 52 of this set? are you so sure of this set? No I'm not. I told you I got a bit carried away hahaha. It was hard to pass up at half price. Do I think it will do better than most sets? Very hard to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supraboy888 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Got my lot of 20 that I bought from TRU yesterday. The customs officials asked me "what are you doing with 20 sets of these?" I told him, I'm collecting them, and flipping some of them. He said, "hurry up and head home, I'll let you go." Sold 9 today at between $35-$40 a piece and redeploying this cash on the 26th if I see any fire sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like this thread is .. supraboy888 daily blog where he keeps telling us all the sets he flipped ( noboday cares). You should start a new forum and title it What supraboy flipped today since you post what you flipped at least 20 times a day and fill the forums with useless crap. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brickshopper Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 do we need a block feature if 99% of a persons post are either no help or totally made up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supraboy888 Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 do we need a block feature if 99% of a persons post are either no help or totally made up I think I've contributed to the forums in some ways, not 99% of my posts are about flipping. You should read other threads before you judge. Flipping is only one part of the game. Personally, I like this set and I'm going to be hoarding some of these.

My apologies .. your post are about flipping, making stuff up, bashing americans, or calling people wrong and picking fights. I think you earned yourself a bad rep here. Its ok to tell us what you flipped ect .. but updating every 30 mins on every single set you flipped just gets annoying tbh. We dont need a twitter type update every 5 mins on what supraboy flipped or sold .. we dont care. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize most people on the site are adults. I also realize when a thread is heading down the wrong path. Sometimes a private message to a certain individual will work wonders in morphing forum behavior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brickbuilder.g Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Do you all think this set is coming up to EOL? Lego stores I've been to don't have them and say no more are coming. Tru is trying to clearance them out. I think this is a great set albeit I'm a little biased since I've got so many..hope to cash in on some this Christmas.

allen9917 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 My local TRUs had ton of it but the stock are getting thinner. TRU.com also made the purchase limit to 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pickleboy Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 If your local TRU still has them in stock you should be able to get them for 27(ish) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanfan34 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Still available at LEGO Shop at Home, I haven't seen it at my Lego stores either for a while, but still seems pretty available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it will be a phenomenal investment or anything, but the value for that price was too good to pass up. 20$ for an exclusive set with 4 exclusive minifigs (2 of which are needed to complete the dwarvish group) is crazy. I have a lot of LOTR and Hobbit sets for investment, but I honestly wouldn't have purchased any if it wasn't for that sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
