(Of course all parts are included ) I wouldn't pay a penny for 42095. And here are my last purchases: Lego City 60159 for $16 Lego City 60160 for $28 Lego City 60140 for $35 Yes, I collect when possible cheap Lego City sets to build a small Lego town in future.

Nebulaire Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I bought mine for 50€ brand new on amazon.fr... Quote
Mechbuilds Posted May 3, 2019 Posted May 3, 2019 Just bought a brand new servo motor (sealed) for 25 eur. I'm so happy that i finally got around to order it. Can't wait for all the RC shenanigans. Quote
howitzer Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 I follow a local online auction site for nice bargains, and found 42043 Arocs there with 50€ starting bid. So I thought I'll follow this one until there's only few hours or so left, but as it happened, I was doing other stuff outside the house for the whole day and forgot about the auction. When I got back inside it was several hours over the time limit and no bids. So I messaged the seller to put it up again so I could buy it, explaining about my forgetfulness. The next day it was up again, so I immediately put a bid on it to avoid repeating my mistake. Apparently this time though, someone else noticed it also and a short bidding war ensued. In the end I won it, but had to pay 74€ for it, which I still consider a bargain, it even had usable batteries! There was also some 20€ extra expense in retrieving it but now it sits safely in my home. It's assembled as the B-model and while checking it's workings I found that one of the pneumatic cylinders doesn't move at all, so I guess I'll have to do some debugging on it. Quote
come2me Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) I found 2 years ago 2 5571 complete black cats for 70 € each. And a complete 8485 for 39 € on ebay !!! But my best one is for 80 €, 3 years ago in a french site (leboncoin.fr) : It was really 80 € for all the models you can see in the pictures !!! There was a little box too with some pieces to complete the models. My wife couldn't believe it when i went back, my car was full of legos !!!! I never found such a big bargain. I got it because i lived near the man who sold his sons legos... Edited May 23, 2019 by come2me Quote
Mechbuilds Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 They literally had no idea how expensive those sets still are.. I suspect that he was just old and thought legos as kids playthings that are worthless after buying them. Quote
TechnicRCRacer Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 Wow, super lucky! 8448 is one of my top 3 most wanted sets! Quote

I'd take them over TRU any day. Got a 9395 at the Cobblers Brick Fair just recently for £85. The box was opened and a bit worn but all the bags were still sealed. Quote
TechnicRCRacer Posted July 21, 2019 Posted July 21, 2019 Got one of the older Backhoe sets (8069) for $35 the other day. Although not technic, I also got a massive lot of monorail tracks for $180. Quote
LvdH Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 I’ve kind of had a mini dark ages (dark months?) but went on a spending spree again. Here it goes: 8458 (missing engine) 8457 (one complete and two spare rear wheels), 8653 (complete) 8285 (complete), 8421 (complete), 8420 (missing front axle), 8434 (complete), 9398 (complete) 8043 (complete), a bin full of random spare parts containing all kinds of parts and sets. Lastly, though not technic, a bin full of 9v train stuff. All of the above for €750. Not all sets are complete, but the big Technic sets (mostly) are. Also got a buggy motor today for €25. I’m not going to be bored for a while Quote
Nebulaire Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 I've made my best bargain during this summer. I buy all these sets for 750€ on www.leboncoin.fr : And I sold all of them to one guy for 1400€ a week after Quote
gregorski904 Posted August 10, 2019 Posted August 10, 2019 sealed bugatti chiron for £150 on market place Quote
Mechbuilds Posted September 4, 2019 Posted September 4, 2019 Don't know where to post this but i just ordered a buwizz and i'm so happy! I'm just your normal average joe and not a very serious lego professional but just a hobbyist struggling on a budget. So it's a big deal for me.. Quote
