 | | Is a BSB really worth $350 plus shipping? —Corrine Pearce
|
| | | I just wondered if BSBs were now worth $400 and if not why would anyone spend that much on ebay to get one? I would love to hear reasons why someone would pay so much for one. I do love BSBs but... Is it a good investment? or what? Corrine (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)

| | | | | (...) No, they are not. They are worth whatever someone wants to pay for one on a given day. That's it and that's all.

| | | | | (...) Are they worth $400? Not in my estimation. Why would someone pay that much? Because they value it more than I do, or they are more impatient than I am to get a good price, or they demand a mint-in-the-sealed box version (and they are still (...)

| | | | (...) Hi Corinne The BSB is a very nice set and has been an object of cult for many lego collectors. It is quite difficult now to find a MISB set, and this may in part explain the very high value sometimes seen on ebay. It is not difficult to find (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.pirates)
