G’day

It’s now been three years since my delurk on LUGNET... remember the naive young AFOL I was back then? Less than 25,000 pieces...

In honour of the occasion, I have prepared some updated stats (which I first posted here) to include my full year of aquisitions for 2003.

For the new sets I purchased:

Year
   cpp (total)
   cpp (sets)
 
1997
   22.0
   23.1
 
1998
   16.9
   21.7
 
1999
   20.3
   70.45 (hopelessly distorted by a 15.99 baseplate!)
 
2000
   14.7
   18.7
 
2001
   10.5
   30.5 (distorted by some 4.5V wires from S@H!)
 
2002
   14.5
   17.4
 
2003
   12.4
   15.7



The first cpp figure (total) is for the total amount spent on new cents, divided by the number of pieces. The second (sets) is for the average cpp for all sets purchased for the year (ie do the cpp calculation for each set, then average those cpp numbers).

There is a blip in 1999 (Star Wars sets, some at the original ott prices), and a dip in 2001 (blue tubs!), but the trend is for lower prices on a cpp basis.

Also, Christmas 2003 marked my one thousandth minifig. A cause for much celebration (and some reflection). It was Johnny Thunder from the Dragon Fortress.

Cheers
