I share your concern about the potential of lingering stock on Amazon for the Ghost and Phantom II, otherwise it would be a slam dunk for a May the 1st purchase. I think I'm still going to buy the max of 5 though. Now I'm just trying to figure out the best combos for 2 Executive Star Destroyers + (Insert Star Wars set here) to get to the $160 threshold.

@TheBrickDynasty 2 месяца назад

Yep, I’m still going to buy the Ghost on May 1st as well, just can’t beat that discount & the risk is worth the potential reward imo. You could add a Tusken Raider BrickHeadz and a Stormtrooper Mech if you’re interested in those sets. That gets you to $165.96, not too far from $160

@tonyricca8116 2 месяца назад

Very nice in depth video but I notice one big glaring issue one being the amount of sets you would only touch if you can get a massive discount which isn’t realistic as most will never get it at 50 percent off. Also if these sets aren’t selling well now what makes us think that they will sell well in retirement.As I have stated many times times global economy and turmoil are key factors and inflation is ripping peoples financial situation into pieces and as always these are disposal income luxury items. Side gig only and be prepared for long hold times . If you can live with those two key factors then most will be ok

@foreverfornever1124 2 месяца назад

Not sure I can agree with the older R2D2, mainly for 3 reasons. For one its much larger and detailed, which if youre buying something with that price youd want the detail there. The new one looks good but its obviously dumb down a bit, still good for the price though. Secondly I dont think the new one is going to be around for long, especially with that anniversary minifig in the box that no doubt most people will be selling seperately once its out of production, drastically reducing the new sets value over time. Lastly the older one is a 50th anniversary Star Wars set that will jump its value up over the long run. This may be a set that slowly increases its value over the next couple of years but definitely will jump up within the next 3-4 years

@@TheBrickDynasty i also buy at very good prices, but mostly i get 3-4 for each offer. After a lot of months i have 30-40 pcs. But to get 200 or more i buy for higher price (like 200 x scythe for 70 Euro).

How will You get the brickheads with 30% off if they are Lego exclusives and never on discount there?

I talk about that here 38:42, it’s all about discount stacking. Buying during good GWP promotions, then selling that GWP and crediting the profit from that sale to your original order. As well as getting cash back from Rakuten or Honey, Insiders points, and credit card cash back.

@user-dc9np8zk9h 2 месяца назад

I got a discount on several sets last year and at the time thought it was great but now look really negatively on sales. It suppresses the value of the product. Even if you picked up a large quantity of a set on sale there are thousands of more that others are buying which negates any lift. It’s why good sets like the scythe have to struggle just to get back to msrp instead of getting a retirement bump. Sales flood the market and suppress value. This isn’t an investment list based on the value of the set or what’s sought after but a list of what’s cheapest regardless of whether or not it’s a junk set. The mech that no one wants is the 3rd highest? Yeah I guess if your goal is to turn $1 into $1.10 a hundred times over. I’m trying to identify highest regarded sets based on quality and collector interest.

@TheBrickDynasty 2 месяца назад

May I ask what sets they were? As I touched on in the Tenno Jedi Temple section and others throughout the video, if a set is significantly discounted for a large amount of people, then the price appreciation of that set will be slow. When I buy for investing, I always aim to get sets at the best discount possible. If a set is commonly 30% off, then I’d need an even larger discount to buy. When you stack up discounts to get sets at a better price than most of your competition, that’s when you’ll see good returns in retirement. This list is my ranking of how well I think these sets will do in retirement based off the present data we have. In my opinion, I made a convincing argument for why the Stormtrooper Mech will have significant demand in retirement. What makes you think no one wants it?

@user-dc9np8zk9h 2 месяца назад

@@TheBrickDynasty are you investing though? It seems more like you are mastering the quick flip because you are so focused on margins and hunting for triple discounts. No judgement either way. Your list is great for quick flipping and taking a tiny margin of profit and reinvesting it quickly than selling it again. It’s a proven method just not what I was looking for. I am curious if you are a fan at all of Lego Star Wars or are interested in the profit cycles. My thinking is kind of like this… I think the scythe is a phenomenal set and a deal at $100. Thus, 5 years + after retirement I would think it would be maybe $250 or more. Based on quality and design. I like getting it for a few dollars off but would much prefer no sale ever because that helps protect the value. What I’m interested to know is that if other collectors who love Star Wars also highly value the same set based on quality and can I project popularity based on fan interest- valuing the investment on the set merit not strictly on the numbers. The mech is a great example. You see a likely profit margin whearas I see a set I don’t even want to own . And I get a sense from other videos that mechs don’t have a lot of enthusiasm.

@mpc007 Месяц назад

This is simply a thing that happens because now everyone and their neighbour / uncle heard the story there is money to be earnt by buying lego before retirement. It happens with every collectable that becomes mainstream after a while.

@mpc007 Месяц назад

@@user-dc9np8zk9h So what you are saying is there are people buying certain sets just for the profit? I mean; that is no surprise really? There are quite some people that quit or partly quit their job to do LEGO on a part time or full time basis so for them its just the paycheck and they do not always have the luxury to only buy what they like. Its the same for every other collectable, whether they are Air Jordan sneakers, or GPU / PS5 / certain crypto hardware we saw past years especially during COVID. There will always be resellers and people trying to make a living with these things.

@@mpc007 I was starting to collect sets in 2014 and had about 1k in sets but discouraged by others not to and stopped and got rid of them…then fast forward to 2023 and I saw how sets I bought then and wanted to buy them tripled in value. So I started collecting again but realized it’s like you said and I missed the boat. At least for investment. So now I’m mostly buying sets I just love and want to own and in 10 or 20 years if they get a significant increase I’ll sell them.

@@palkisakumi8595 Sure, as is the case with ALL articles with a high demand or reselling potential. And then when it loses in profitability lots of 'investors' or resellers will simply jump to the next category or object.

@mpc007 Месяц назад

Unless has been the case with other collectable articles past years with LEGO usually everyone has a fair chance to obtain the sets they want. Its not like investors have options to get to sets earlier than you do. If you want something, just make sure to track the article and snatch it when its on sale. You can't blame investors for doing so and then reselling at a later date for profit just because they were handling it better and quicker than you.
