    Discussion by purdy44 · April 2015 · Home› Marketplace

    Hey guys, I'm selling my NISB Lego Taj Mahal 10189! I purchased it in late August, 2010 at the Lego Store in Mall of America. I had every intention of building the set, but life happened so next thing you know a few years went by with it unopened. In late 2012, I was still wanting to build it but was also trying to move to…

    Comment by readersam · March 2018 · Home› Collecting

    I didn't get into LEGO until I was an adult so 34 years. Then in 2010 I bought all the old HP sets and a few pirate sets. Then I stopped again for another 2.5 years because I was busy with other things. Since I have started buying regularly again, I usually go a quarter without buying. I am caught up in almost all the…

    From a conversation I had with a Lego Customer Service Rep, the LoTR sets were supposed to be the replacement for the medieval themes for the next 2 to 3 years. (like PoTC) but sales were not what they expected at all and decided to push the next castle theme up 2 years earlier than expected. She said LoTR will be lucky to…

    @tensor - I tend to agree with you. But TRU can be so screwy, I didn't know if anyone had been successful with price matching and then still getting the promo. If so, I know my local TRU folks well enough that I could at least cite the example and maybe get somewhere. They have commented on how much less I have been buying…

    I found the original case (http://studyhappy.blog.163.com/blog/static/17876788920111101033400/). I link to this rather than the original Chinese court webpage because that disallows the text to be copied. The date is 2010, not 2009, though. To summarize: 1. TLG brought legal actions against the makers of COGO in 2009 using…

    ^ Well said. In the 2000s to the early 2010s I purchased just about every large set available. I looked forward to the couple of sets that would come out. I have found that my purchases have remained steady, even though the number of large offerings has drastically increased. I have purchased the modular building every…

    Comment by Crowkillers · August 2013 · Home› Buying & Selling Topics

    I look at anyone that resells an item for more than they paid for it as a reseller... Regardless if they supposedly started as a "Fan" or "Collector" and then realized how much money they could make 4 years later... I talked to a guy at Brickworld back in 2010 who had hoarded up Cafe Corner sets by the dozens... I wasn't…

    Comment by BrickDancer · April 2015 · Home› Collecting

    @B0SSK Official UCS sets are typically 1 or 2 a year, except some years there's only 1 due to other slot being given up to a large playset style SW offering like Ewok Village or the upcoming Hoth set. Only 1 year (2002) were we blessed with 3 UCS sets: 2000 = X-wing, TIE Interceptor 2001 = Rebel Blockade, Darth Maul Bust…

    1) i actually put this as a negative change. regardless, this trend was in place LONG before the negative changes we are referring to started getting phased in around 2012/13 2) also a huge negative to me 3/4) hasn't this been around a long time? certainly it also long predates the recent changes being discussed thus far…
