evil_elmo Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Check this out!!!MADNESS!!! wow you think its a mistake?
AoNZ Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Woah. That's lucky. My local Warehouse had a Pirate Tank so I took advantage of the sale.
harmacy Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Woah.That's lucky. My local Warehouse had a Pirate Tank so I took advantage of the sale. Yep - a definite mistake... Reserve is indeed $1, but the buy now was not meant to be on there. http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.as...102&ed=true
CommanderFox Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 YAY!!! im so glad that was a mistake!! If that had actually sold for $1 Res then that would have been my biggest loss anyways the mistake has been righted CommanderFox
Callum Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Just got back from a local Toy Auction... Crikey, Star Wars stuff was going for an absolute song. I grabbed some 1st edition Lego sets Mint in sealed boxes for the retail price they originally sold at :/
Brickthing Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 man there was no point in ringing up the warehouse.....my wife and i went to the northlands one last night and we saw a big stack of home ones above the shelves and when i rang they said they had noneso anyone after a home one, the warehouse northlands has plenty in stock If the Home Ones are up there, it's possible that they didn't know they had them because the employee you asked didn't see them on the shelves. If you go there and ask an employee if they can get one down for you, I doubt the employee would say no. If they've been given instructions to try and avoid selling them to customers, just keep asking different employees until you find one that will do it for you.

Thanks CommanderFox EDIT: heres 2 TM auctions that are pretty cool Snow troopers and this one is kinda cool, but not from any set that I know about, probably a custom.

vmln8r Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 (edited) Phantom Menace sets (pod Racers, darth Maul sets etc) That TM auction was funny, lucky they managed to relist it. I'm patiently waiting for a decent sale at the Big Shops and for 8265 Wheel Loader to be released... Out of interest, does anyone buy those big lots of Lego off TM? Or do you look for specific sets? I haven't bought any Lego but keep an eye out for the Motorised AT-AT, 8275 Bulldozer and 8480 Space Shuttle. Edited August 27, 2009 by VMLN8R

I haven't bought any Lego but keep an eye out for the Motorised AT-AT, 8275 Bulldozer and 8480 Space Shuttle. Yep I bought a few large lego lots... 300$ for 20kg last year. It had Two of the original pirate ships (Baracuda and Clipper) as well as some M-Tron space sets, castle sets etc in it. Fairly poor condition, and I am still treating it to get rid of the tobacco smell - so make sure if you DO buy a large lot that it comes from a smoke free home. ABS and the rubber used in tires sops up smoke like a *insert expletive here* I just sold an 8480 MISB for 450$ ... I have one more in played with condition (99% complete (100% maybe - but just to be sure...), Stickers not applied, box intact, manuals intact) EDIT - actually when I say played with condition, it was built once and sat on a shelf.

Fumoffu Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Phantom Menace sets (pod Racers, darth Maul sets etc) Whoa! You're lucky. If only my local Toyworld has old sets still going for a RRP. I'm not even going to be greedy and expect a discount.
CommanderFox Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Phantom Menace sets (pod Racers, darth Maul sets etc) Cool!! was there any SW ROTS stuff? where was this btw? was it at a shop or like a roadside sale? Thanks TM listings Linky Linky Chromie Chromie V-19 pretty good price for a V-19, considering it was one of last years sets CommanderFox
