Minique85 Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Sometimes flea markets can really pay off. I just bought 8275 motorized bulldozer for 30€. It did need 10€ in brickink to replace some missing parts. It works great and has barely been played with from the look of the pieces. Quote
Aventador2004 Posted August 16, 2017 Posted August 16, 2017 Anyone interested? Here, three of those sets alone are 350$ good condition each. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lego-Technic-lot-42042-42006-42009-8047-42053-8063-8416-42030-mor-/322646386900?hash=item4b1f3928d4:g:iOoAAOSws19Zgydi I would love them all, but don't have that kind of money. They are: #42042, #42006, #42009, #8047, #42053, #8063, #8416, #42030, #8069, #42054. Quote

No way I'd pay $1500, maybe $800. Quote

Leif Posted August 24, 2017 Posted August 24, 2017 42070 for SEK 1888 = €198 including shipping. Store:Klossbutiken. Reason:damaged box. Quite good, right? Quote
Jurss Posted August 25, 2017 Posted August 25, 2017 Default price 185 in local store. Yes, with discount of -33%, but they always have discounts, so it's almost default price. Quote

aminnich Posted August 31, 2017 Posted August 31, 2017 I got the BWE for $185 shipped, I didn't think that was a bad deal at all. It was used, but none of the parts show any kind of wear. Quote
Jurss Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 On bricklink there are new ones for almost the same price ... , only if there's also shpipping included ... Quote
Jurss Posted September 1, 2017 Posted September 1, 2017 It depends on prices in Your country and availibility from bricklink Quote
TassemetZateki Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 I keep my eyes on facebook marketplace and you generally find some stupid good deals... Right now in Boston there is a guy selling an Arocks new in the box for 135 dollars. I've also picked up a 50 pound lot for free as people move or get rid of them. Quote

Took the plunge on the 42070 despite the not-so-hot reviews. I figure this price makes the value more reasonable. Undecided if I'll keep it shelved as a collectors item, or build it.. Just wish Costco would add the Porsche to their inventory! For others, the Class (42054) has been at $169 for a few weeks now. Back in Aug, then dropped it to $159 and I managed to grab a unit before the price bumped back to $169. Great set at a great price. Edit: Dont forget that Walmart.ca has an AdMatch policy, so you should be able to get the price matched. Keep in mind Costco shipping is included! Edited September 14, 2017 by PlastiBots Quote

Time to consider considering to buy 42070! Quote
PlastiBots Posted September 16, 2017 Posted September 16, 2017 (edited) I managed to snag a 42070 at Costco.ca for $260 CAD. Ordered Thurs, got it next day. Now they are gone... Seems like it was only up this past week. Steal of a price given all other stores were selling for $370 CAD Edited September 16, 2017 by PlastiBots Quote
Gnac Posted September 16, 2017 Posted September 16, 2017 I'm unlikely to ever get 42055 due to lack of interest and space for all the bits, but I coveted them yellow gear quadrants. So it was nice to get 8 of them for £3 from that there ebay (vs. ~£11 on Bricklink / £8.24 from Bricks an Pieces). It's unfortunate that the gear teef are not on the outside of the curve; they could have been great for making bascule bridges. Quote
PlastiBots Posted September 25, 2017 Posted September 25, 2017 42070 is back on Costco.ca for 259 CAD. Didn't last long last time, so grab it if interested. Quote
mocbuild101 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) As far as bargains go, I pretty happy with my latest Ebay buy - a giant bulk lot of (working) Mindstorms parts, including: 1 x RCX 1.0 brick 1 x USB tower 1 x serial tower 6 x 9v motors (71427) 6 x rotation sensors 4 x temperature sensors 3 x light sensors 8 x touch sensors 27 x 9v cables of various lengths 4 x NXT/EV3 cables (including 2 converter cables) Total Bricklink value $400+, but I got it for only $83... Just goes to show, the longer you wait, the better deal you get... And I've waited a very long time to get some rotation and temperature sensors - about 5-6 years in fact...
