    it really is amazing how something so small can mean so much! my wife and my first anniversary, she got me the Star wars AT-AT, because she knew id love it. she really is a keeper. heck she helped me line the walls of my office with shelves to display my sets too.

    holy shit you guys.... i think i just hit the lego motherload.
    saw an ad on CL for some old Legos. Recognized a few pieces. Took a chance and went to look at them and I am now the proud owner of a 1989 Caribbean Clipper complete with sails and all minifigs.
    the guy has a ton of other sets that he showed me and says he's up for selling them too. took a bunch of pics and will upload soon. lots of the castle and forest sets from the late 80's and early 90's. dude has no idea what he has an i tried to not seem too excited but damn, if i would have had more cash on me i would have taken them home tonight too.

    or bricklink
    just looking at the current listings on BL for these sets there's at least $1k worth of sets there.

    If he isn’t asking anywhere near that much I’d suck it up and buy em. Keep what ya want and then post em up for sale. Be a decent flip

    There's a market for pre-built sets? I'd sell some of mine just to get the room back that they take up.

    i asked if he had a price in mind and he said no. i might just float a number his way and see what he says.
    if theyre 30+ years old, intact and not a scratch on them then yes.

    Oh man, I didn't realize they were that clean...

    Caribbean Clipper was a solid find. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!







    Might look really good with the new Eldorado Fortress....

    need to go through and do a full inventory and find out which parts I'm missing. all of the major stuff is there plus i think he gave me all of the odds and ends from whatever else wasn't fully built so i have some random knights and forestmen and space guys

    he's sent me more pics since i got home. must be clearing out the closets in the house looking for everything hoping to entice me back :laugh:

    I have GI Joe's, Star Wars, and other toys I'm going to purge one day. If I could find a buyer for it all at $20k they could flip it for much more.

    The classic space stuff is worth quite a bit. Even missing pieces without box or instructions a “bigger” set with baseplate is bringing +$250
    I joined a couple FB pages specific to classic space :oops:

    You’re a bad influence!
    I’m going to let him dig another day or two and see what else he’ll find then make him an offer.
    oh if he finds any space sets I’m 1000% keeping those!
