    POV on used Tower Bridge 10214 without box or instructions is $430. I’m all over that deal.

    A literalist could take “alot of legos” to mean it’s a group of Lego bricks of indeterminate quantity. As opposed to a large amount, or a hairy creature.

    There’s a guy in Imperial selling off some bigger sets at great prices. I reached out to him and he says he has more to sell too. Might be worth pooling resources together if anyone is interested.

    well, I have you all a chance. As Chris on the Dollar would say, I swooped. I saw he dropped the price for the falling water and robie house today. Gave him a call. I walked away with both of those, 8043 Excavator, and 8070 super car all for $300.

    “about 15 minutes from the Pittsburgh Mills mall” is pretty vague… not as vague as “somewhere in Canada”, but still.

    That said, I’ll be up that way a lot next week for work. Mayhaps I’ll see what’s what.

    It’s probably Jim, the dude that I got a lot of my stuff from when I was still in The city. Good dude

    Know a bit more specifically where he lives? And/or if he’s willing to meet up? And/or whether he’s available daytime / earlyish afternoon?

    This post will be long but might interest somebody here:

    I saw this ad on Craigslist yesterday, http://pittsburgh.craigslist.org/tag/5326147889.html, and I noticed that the 10th photo showed a 10179 Millennium Falcon set in the box and shipping box! I thought that maybe this was too good to be true, but I sent an e-mail anyway.

    “Do you really have a Lego set 10179 Millennium Falcon still sealed in the box?”

    I got this reply:

    “Hi, can you please call or text my mom? She will be the one meeting
    xxx-xxx-xxxx”

    So, I texted yesterday and got some back and forth going on today. The gist of it is that this lady has kids who posted on craigslist without her knowing because they wanted to get enough money for a PS4. Hmm, fishy. Oh, and they live in Cincinnati but posted on the Pittsburgh Craigslist. Very fishy.

    Regardless, I sent an e-mail explaining how sought after that 10179 set is and how I would pay $1,000 for it but I’m coming from Pittsburgh so would want to meet somewhere in between. She then said “I know nothing about Lego. They got the Legos as a gift from there aunt. We’re not toy collectors so there not worth the “high dollars ” the toy collectors like to pay. The kids can call there aunt and pretty much get anything. So there not hard to come by for them. I’m not able to travel I have to work. I’m sorry.”

    So, I suggested she put better photos and try to sell it in the Cincinnati Craigslist, but understood that she can’t meet to sell to me.

    Dude. @JoshHall found a very similar listing last month. They had a blanket price of $450 for the whole lot (not exactly the same photos, I don’t think, although the ad is gone now.) Josh of course was ready to jump on such a killer deal right away. But the lady told him the same thing about her kids and living in Cincy.


    @solscud007
    was interested, too – maybe you guys should plan a road trip. Although I bet you’d have to fight over the Falcon…

    Oh, and if they do actually have the VW Bug and not just the instruction manual, my buddy at work wants it.
