Holodoc Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 On al local internet marketplace I found this: Lego Star Wars Star Destroyer Venator class The information taken from the site: * around 2500 bricks * mainly build in bley and dark bley * a few bricks are still missing ( ) * comes with 230 jpeg-instruction and detailed summary of bricks used This way to the site. Contact me if I can arrange something for you if you are interested.
metalandi Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 I don't quite get why somone would sell a MOC. That smells like just a money making operation to me. Anyway it is WAY overpriced for 2500 pieces, even the imperial star destroyer was cheaper and had quite a lot of more bricks...

Anyway it is WAY overpriced for 2500 pieces, even the imperial star destroyer was cheaper and had quite a lot of more bricks... In the description of the starship the seller wrote he paid even more than 400€ (on BL I assume) to get the bricks. To me it smells more like "I started something I wasn´t able to overlook and now I run out of money". But looking at the non-existing replies to this offer you´re surely right - it IS overpriced (you could get a Taj Mahal for this)!
Eilif Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 I'm not at all surprised at the selling of MOCs, especially when they come with directions, at which point they become "custom kits" I know of a fellow who makes superb MOCs, and has sold one or two of them for more than the pieces are worth, and he doesn't even include instructions. I'm not sure about this particular "pieces missing" deal, (not worth for me, but for the right fan...)but if someone takes the time to create something unique or high quality, I see no reason not to sell it.
Captain Green Hair Posted August 6, 2008 Posted August 6, 2008 Woa that thing is nice, with instructions the price isn't even all that bad! That missing parts part is a bit questionable though.... So, it's nothing for on your mantle doc?
Holodoc Posted August 7, 2008 Author Posted August 7, 2008 So, it's nothing for on your mantle doc? 300+ € for a set with the wrong theme? Naaaah...
