Well, this explains how S@H sold out of those $4.50 6649 Street Sweepers • so
fast last week.

Nice markup, Troy!

Paul Sinasohn
LUGNET #115

Funny thing is, it was not originally my intention to sell them as sets • when
I ordered them, as that is not what I normally do.  I ordered them because
of the cool windshield and the yellow rounded bricks, intending to part • out
the rest of the pieces.

However, I checked eBay, and was astonished to see the sets going for so
much.  I'd never be able to make half of what they are going for if I • parted
them out.  So, unfortunately, no cool windshieds for me!

$15 may seem like a bit outrageous markup on the sets, but this does seem • to
be the going price for the sets.  As reference, see this current auction
(not mine):
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=560233594

And these closed auctions (also not mine):
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=550283182
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=556695719

Also, a search of "sweeper" on brickbay will reveal 7 people selling the
set, with prices ranging from $14.50 to $25.00.

I guess I got lucky this time, and actually called SAH before they ran out
(my luck has been pretty bad lately!)  It remains to be seen, however, if • I
actually sell any at this price!

Troy
