10196 Grand Carousel potential
What are peoples thoughts on future prices of this set? I have noticed a few go for £525+ on ebay recently. I am not sure if it will increase more or whether the price has reached its limit. It is a great and unique set.

If its MISB, then gamble by waiting for a big fish buyer to come along. I doubt there are that many new sets left in reseller hands.
If Bricklink can't even help you finish a set - that will only add to the aftermarket price.
I'm in the same boat as @SiE. I bought MISB with every intention of building. It's becoming more and more difficult by the day to crack it open! :o(
Little personal story for anyone interested in listening:
When I was about 10-11, my brother (who was about 12) and I had wanted an AT-AT toy, it was like the crown jewels as far as we were concerned and we decided to save up our pocket money and sweet money for it.
We had been saving for months and had near enough the money needed when our mum was taken ill.
We had gone out to buy the AT-AT, but ended up spending all our money and coming back with a china musical Carousel for my mum, she always had a thing for horses, and as she couldn't get out of the house it was our way of showing her how much she meant to us.
Unfortunately my mum and my brother are no longer with us (both leaving huge gaping holes in my life) and the china Carousel got irreparably damaged.
So one day I hope to get hold of 10196 so that it can sit on my display shelves the way my mums Carousel sat on hers, to remind me of better/simpler times when I had so much but didn't realise it.
Oh and sorry for the off topic, just felt like sharing..
My condolences for your loss...
