  Re: Jan-Albert's small MISB sets auction
 
Haven't recieved any reactions so far... Am I asking an unfair price? Auction rules not good? Or just the wrong sets? Thanks for the input... (25 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

I bought several of the cheap Shell 1999 promo's to use for trades/sale, so I can keep adding other sets which I otherwise would not be able to add to my collection. But why are you (...)

  Re: item prices
 
I was intending to auction 2-4 off from the very beginning, and James knew that. But I also sent him a set that is running VERY high prices on Ebay, so he made out fine ;-) (...) -- | Tom Stangl, Technical Support Netscape Communications Corp | (...)

  Re: item prices
 
(...) Yep, and James did it KNOWING I was going to keep 2-4, and Ebay the others. In fact, my NEED for them hinted to him that maybe he should buy a few extra for himself ;-) Of course, I'm only selling 2. I MAY sell 2 more, I may not, I am (...)

(...) It was more because I traded 3 of the sets to him, and sold him 3. It was on a separate understanding (not trying to be rude, but I couldn't cover more than $1500 on my credit card...the US money stays as US money for me to pay for more lego (...)

  Re: item prices
 
(...) Oh no, not at all (at least in MY case) - sometimes only a few sets (or ONE set) have a part you need for a custom creation. If it takes 20 of that set to finish your creation, well, you're going to try to buy 20, whether it is all at once or (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
 
  Re: item prices
 
I'm sure you meant attics ;-) 1 - I buy sets I NEED, whether they are duplicates or not. Right now, I am buying any set I can get that has Rolling Garage Doors, JUST for the doors. I have won several sets in the last week or 2 that will be parted (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) I am one of those 4 other individuals. Thanks, James! When you offered to get the sets for us at cost, you requested that we not just auction the sets off on Ebay, because you didn't want to go to the trouble of getting the sets and mailing (...)

(...) I'm going to add to what Scott said. I sold 6 copies of 4555 to Tom S., for around what it cost me. I sold 7 copies of _the same set_ for around the same amout to 4 other individuals, and just covered my costs (got something in trade, which (...)

Hans, (...) What's wrong with making money? IMO, there is nothing wrong with buying anything for any reason. If I buy extra food for the winter, store it, and don't use it, and then maybe sell it at a higher price, is that wrong? If you have the (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
