Between Beorn and the Duodenum?

Yellowcastle · June 2021

Better than Pirate8 of the Perineum...

SumoLego · June 2021

π8 @ :

Nobody wants those.

Astrobricks · June 2021

Everybody needs a perineum :)

PDelahanty · June 2021

I REALLY want to see more of that box. I refuse to believe the movie title is the only thing that's messed up.

^ But where on Earth, literally, is the Caribaeam?

It's like predictive text where you just type letters in the general vicinity of the spelling and hope your phone spits out the correct word. Expect it hasn't.

andhe · June 2021

Good job I'm not a box guy. This eBay purchase arrived wrapped in bubble wrap with the label stuck on the bubble wrap, and the bubble wrap taped to the box... Did wonder why it was reduced...

SumoLego · June 2021

And clearly a llama sat on it.

This must be a rare Dinomite piece not the regular Dynamite piece. It doesn't look like the Dinomite Pokemon character.

SumoLego · June 2021

^ Maybe it's carved out of the Red Skull's skull?

WesterBricks · June 2021

^^ for $20,000 I expect free delivery the same day, by drone, or even someone on horseback.

That price is totally justified... the piece is from the unreleased and exceedingly rare #60278 Crook’s Hideout Raid (also known as the Dynamite Factory that Never Was). I’ll be making an offer on it soon...

Yellowcastle · June 2021

That will never appraise.

The market is too unstable?

Yellowcastle · June 2021

It could go off at any moment.

SumoLego · June 2021

So many things to say about this.

I can't tell if the ship is backwards, the people are backwards or if the Titanic had torpedo tubes in the bow of the ship?

jmeninno · June 2021

But...but...they are helping you...2 success...

The_Rancor · June 2021

Those Playmobilego figures are horrifying

Think of them as Macy's Thanksgiving Parade baloons on the Titanic :)
Which could still be horrifying lol

Blockwork_Orange · July 2021

Not ridiculous, just funny. Given the way the fig is posed and the expression on its face, the first thought was that he's sitting on a toilet!

More like Constipated B. Crumb

560Heliport · July 2021

Salacious B. Constipated.

Astrobricks · July 2021

Salacious Gonna B. Here A While

WesterBricks · August 2021

I don’t understand.

560Heliport · August 2021

^ Me either! $9.99 for shipping?! An envelope, a stamp, a couple minutes of work... :)

bricktuary · September 2021

Yeah but you'll want it to arrive in pristine condition, I'm happy to pay $10 for proper packaging.

Imagine if it turned up creased! You'd be devastated.

blokey9 · September 2021

I’ve got a freshly used sticker sheet from the Hogwarts Express #75955. Free to a good home.

WesterBricks · September 2021

Someone is very optimistic regarding the value of this… thing.

SumoLego · September 2021

^ I'm pretty sure there aren't boats in space...

CCC · September 2021

Looks more like LEGO Adidas than LEGO Classic Space.

WesterBricks · September 2021

Not really ridiculous, just that it makes me sad. One of the mocs in this auction contains sand green 1x8s and a groove brick, which only appeared together in the Green Grocer.

Starblazers had the space battleship Yamato.

jason1976 · September 2021

I noticed an auction in my watch list had ended, and when I looked back at I suddenly noticed the thing in the top left corner....

WesterBricks · September 2021

^ I give up, anyone figure out what it is?

The_Rancor · September 2021

Pet defecation? To put it politely ;)

samiam391 · September 2021

Looks like a poorly made pancake.

Yellowcastle · September 2021

Apple fritter for the win.

Mr_Cross · September 2021

It's in the picture, you should totally expect it to be provided. Strictly speaking, listings are wysiwyg, if it isn't included, you could ask for it to be forwarded on to you or to get a partial refund. Ebay would definitely side with you, that's the beauty of the money back guarantee!
;-)

jason1976 · September 2021

My best guess was a squashed chocolate biscuit, but it was something I'm trying not to think about too much.....

@Mr_Cross if that's the case I'm glad the ebay emails about the auction ending soon went astray, wouldn't want to open up some Lego and find that!

NickF22 · September 2021

Jerky?

I'm going with a dog chew thing. I'm hoping it is a dog chew thing.

JudgeChuck · September 2021

To me, it looks like some light purple fake gemstone or jelly, surrounded by a gold-coloured something-or-other.
It doesn't look like dog/cat excreta, unless cats do something really weird that I am completely unaware of!
Either way, that is one of the oddest things I've seen in a long time!
@jason1976 Please email the seller and ask him WTF that is! I'm going to die confused, unless this is resolved! :-D ;-)

SumoLego · September 2021

If the listing is from Johan van der Smut, it might be a 'keeper' for the skin box.

toastpasta · September 2021

Yes, I loved to shop on eBay but sometimes the prices of shipping were too high and after some time I just stopped buying... sad

MaffyD · September 2021

Squashed Wagon Wheel.

Istokg · September 2021

This auction seems very ridiculously priced, and many folks think that this is a fake... but it is the real thing... a 1985 chromed Castle minfigure... produced for the 25th Anniversary of LEGO introduced in the UK (via British LEGO Ltd.) in January 1960.

The Ebay seller got the date wrong, it was 1985, not 1988. But he did get one thing right... this figure is rarer than Mr. Gold, since only attendees of that Anniversary celebration soiree got this special minifig, with many parts chromed.

I was going to say exactly the same thing!

Istokg · September 2021

Duh.... I forgot to show the link to the chromed knight minfigure... selling for US $2,999.00

I can see why. The base looks like it was spray painted with chrome spray paint!
