hxckid88 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 When ur selling old iron Maiden tour shirts with holes in them for 100 bucks and ur making 40 bucks. Off of it it's worth it. Clothing is weird. Things that you would think belong in goodwill bag go for high dollar and things you think would fetch good money u can't get five bucks for. And I live my mom's but I was referring to all the girls who want me which is like half the world. Truth had a girl. Over the other nite see saw my lego stock pile and asked if that's how I lure young naive girls over. It's a good idea. Candy is so last year. OK I'm done. I'll continue clothing talk in proper forum. If anyone has any tips or whatnot and want to discuss Holla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudoty Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 When this set is marked retired on S @ ****, Jojoyojimbi and I will make this thread so festive, it will put the SSD thread to shame I am right there with you. So the last time LEGO Shop at Home had these in stock to order was 3/20/2014, please correct me if I am wrong. So it has sat at Sold Out status for almost 6 months now in the USA and I believe it is Retired in the rest of the world with the exception of Canada. What are some examples of other sets that have been sold out in the USA for this amount of time or longer and have made a comeback? Also what is the longest you have seen a set stay in sold out status prior to retiring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No More Monkeys Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 ... Also what is the longest you have seen a set stay in sold out status prior to retiring?Butterfly Beauty Shop. Availability at Lego Shop USA ended sometime December 2012, according to brickset. was officially marked as retired only this month Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if these two sets were OOS for as long as the rover, but the Orc Forge, and Architecture Studio were OOS for a while, and then they made a suprising comeback.

Pseudoty Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Yeah not including AS with the possible error in the book or the delay to produce a second edition of the book. Waiting for JA to tell me to move this to the AS thread ;) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekgate502 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I thought it would be fitting for me to post in this thread that as of today the 21104 Rover is still not retired on the USA LEGO Shop at Home site. Per the Exo Suit thread, even though I am sitting on 16 of these, 2 with original designer autographs and have not actively tried to sell any for 6 months as it continues to appreciate, well how do I say it, I guess some of us do not have patience.

gregpj Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 i think they're keeping this one "unretired" to spite me >_< How can you retire something that has lasted 10 years beyond it's expected lifespan? This bit of news is for you... This little machine just keeps on tracking in the martian desert! http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/news/whatsnew/index.cfm?FuseAction=ShowNews&NewsID=1705 I've only got two left in my for-sale-now pile... I'm contemplating taking them down as this news may eventually bring the rover back into the media. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have put two of my 16 up to move and see what happens and lowered one of my two autographed ones. I want to hold these things super long term but at some point I need to cash out on a few of them.

I was reading an article on a tech news site talking about how they reformatted the SSD drive on the rover last week so bad flash cells could be marked and avoided. Got me wondering what else had been going on lately. They've got a quite a journey planned for that little robot: http://mars.jpl.nasa.gov/msl/multimedia/images/?ImageID=6584 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojoyojimbi Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 the only journey i want it to take is from "sold out" to "retired", the real one can keep chugging along and hopefully find life right around the time i've got 80 left, i'd be fine with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcandre Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 This is up to $109 on Amazon. How much higher can it go? Plenty of people selling at $100, once those are gone it will continue to climb. It's barely been gone 6 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
