DFOL Posted August 26, 2012 Just out of curiosity, how much did you bid? Or do you prefer not to share that bit of information? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wctan4444 Posted August 29, 2012 Awesome. No space to display these sets. Maybe some museums will be interested. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lobot Posted September 3, 2012 In the 'Hopeful' rather than 'Totally nuts' range:(link here) It's already got 4 offers so it will probably sell at some point...there's a Cloud City also available Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bilbo Baggins Posted September 3, 2012 Wow! That millenium Falcon looks awesome. I didn't knew there was a page that graded lego sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brickdoctor Posted September 3, 2012 I didn't knew there was a page that graded lego sets. I'm fairly certain that there isn't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CMP Posted September 3, 2012 I think I saw that very copy at CVI. Judging by this price they had a 20% discount there... The grading thing is new to me as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hey Joe Posted September 3, 2012 I find it sad to put a box of Lego into a plastic box like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Builder Posted September 3, 2012 Not worth the price in any way what so ever, but interesting none the less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lobot Posted September 4, 2012 I find it sad to put a box of Lego into a plastic box like that. I totally agree! I collected vintage SW for a couple of years and ended up with a decent collection; some of this was AFA graded. It's a sensible idea to preserve toys that were 30+ years old but, as far as I'm concerned, Lego should be built! I'm looking forward to buying MISB a Cloud City one day, and I will open & build it (albeit rather carefully ). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Angeli Posted September 4, 2012 (edited) As far as I'm concerned, Lego should be built! I found out that there are two types of Lego Lovers (LL:) Collectors, and Builders. First ones do not care all that much about mocing, and they keep their sets in different bags/boxes, divides buy sets content. The other ones by bricks piece by piece, do not care all that much if some bricks are missing from their sets and keep their bricks altogether, or divided by type/color. The first one regard Lego as a valuable thing that is part of collection, the other type regards Lego as a toy. First ones buy Lego sets because of the number that they are missing in collection, the other type buys them because of some part(s) that is in that set, and they want it:) Being builder myself, sometimes I can not understand collectors, but as my surrounding is full of them, sometimes they can not understand me, passing on a LOTR set to buy a cup at PaB :) Edited September 4, 2012 by Angeli Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickG Posted September 4, 2012 Who would buy every single set? I mean, a rich person I guess... The offers are pathetic. 100 and 2,500 pounds. I want to offer $200. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hey Joe Posted September 13, 2012 Ok, here's another one: link Very large job lot of mostly sorted Lego 45,000 pounds Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Builder Posted September 13, 2012 That's a nice find, totally not worth it but he could ask for a nice chunk of change nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hey Joe Posted September 13, 2012 Yeah, it seems way overpriced unless I'm not seeing something that's there. What's that stack of largish boxes with theme names on them? Are those store displays? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Man Posted September 13, 2012 Ok, here's another one: link Very large job lot of mostly sorted Lego 45,000 pounds £45000 , it's not worth that much. £1000 maybe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.V.D. Posted September 13, 2012 £45000 , it's not worth that much. £1000 maybe. mmm, I dont know. Hard to estimate without realy seeing it. But if you read the description of the lot, the pictures only show the tip of the iceberg. If I understand well it even contains a UCS MF (not in the pics), that beasty alone will already burn your `£1000... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
