1. Where do I go to find the value of a vintage set?

   

   Discussion by molough · August 2019 · Home› Buying & Selling Topics

   I'm a LEGO novice. I have an unopened 1978 Homemaker Bathroom set (#261). Box is in good condition (it's the flip open lid type of box). EBay has used ones with parts missing and no box for $45. Where do I go to find the value of this set and also to sell it? Is there some sort of vintage LEGO selling site? Thanks in…

These were sold by TLG to retailers in boxes of 5... for individual sales. In USA/Canada retailers had to buy a…

   I am hoping the news (http://enewsi.com/SDCC/261-26960.html) that a GotG animated series is in the works means more Lego sets and more of the Marvel Universe heroes and villains.

Here is a…

   OK.... a little more about these nice Town Plan model sets.... The 307/1307 VW Dealer set came with a unique part... the LEGO showroom window element... which is 3x8x3 in size, and was only used for this one set... These unusual showroom window trans-clear parts are very unusual, and since they are made of Cellulose…

A nice time capsule of wht was available from LEGO in…

    Adelec, those "cars" are very high quality metal wheeled 1:87 scale (HO scale) cast plastic cars with metal wheels. These are VERY highly sought after by model car as well as LEGO collectors. Here's 5 of the 10 models that were found in this plastic garage (261-268 and 670 & 671). They were sealed with a paper banderole…
