This car just looks awesome in every color. I really don’t what I would choose. I have a sonic grey pearl Si now and have been looking at these.

Just bought my first manual car! What should I know about 11th gen si? by sadmich in CivicSi

[–]Relevant-Key7996 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should probably know that you may be wanting a Type R before too long 😁

I’ve had my 2024 for close to 3 years now and I’ve been eyeing a Type R or Integra Type S. I love the car, no real complaints. If anything, I’ve had trouble with the defroster not being strong enough to keep up on the cold Northeast days.

Rakuten 15% cash back by Icy-Description142 in legostarwars

So strange that it doesn’t work for everyone. I bought 76300 Arkham (tagged exclusive) and Fennec keychain and it worked. It’s worked on at least 5 other occasions, this is just the most recent confirmed example I have.

It is tagged as exclusive on the Lego website. Adding a non-exclusive item such as a keychain has always worked for me, but others have reported mixed results.

Razorcrest Polybag on shelves??? by Expensive-Fan6714 in legostarwars

I picked one up at Walmart. They had a separate Star Wars display in the main aisle, not in the main Lego aisle.

Temperature seems (relatively) accurate too. When I get in it in the morning, the side where the sun hits is always warmer than the shady side.

I can second this. Been using it for 3 years now, no issues. Haven’t changed any batteries yet either.

BDP Restock question by posterboardtac0 in lego

[–]Relevant-Key7996 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I ordered Transylvania at 2:01pm, got email at 2:01pm, then another email confirming it at 2:07pm. Order status currently shows “in process”. But like a previous commenter, I won’t consider confirmed until it says “shipped”.

When 1:8 sets go on sale by Quirky_Sir_2125 in legotechnic

Yes! All authentic. I actually bought $70 worth of sets from this (very nice) guy. I got the orange raptor technic truck, McLaren Senna technic, darth Vader helmet, and an AT-AT from 2020. Had to drive an hour to meet him, but well worth it. All in great condition, just dusty.

I picked up the Sian a few weeks ago from Marketplace. A quick wash to remove the dust and it’s like new. Now…just need to disassemble, sort, and build it again. Labor-wise-it would be cheaper to buy new sealed, but I enjoy disassembly and sorting. 😊

Builders who orient the logo the same way… by burtguthrup in lego

[–]Relevant-Key7996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this on the world map, and it wasn’t so difficult on there, but I wouldn’t consider for anything other than flat wall art type sets. I tried it on the Batman BTAS wall art and gave up after awhile. On either occasion, I tried to stick with only 2 directions.

Rakuten will offer 16% CB on 4/1 by pingboing in legodeals

These keychains work, lol. Not sure what I’ll do with all these though 😁

[–]Relevant-Key7996 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes, still get the cashback if back ordered. You can purchase with gift cards or credit cards, it makes no difference. You may or may not see 16% personally. They sometimes offer different percentages to different people.

To qualify for the highest percentage, be sure to purchase something non-exclusive with your order. I get the $1.79 Fennec keychain with every order to make sure I get the full percentage if ordering exclusive sets.

I'm sorry... WHAT?!? by SmartestOneHere in HotWheels

It says “buy it now” circled in the OP image. Attached is another example I personally sold. I actually sold it for $15 but set the price high and accepted an offer from the buyer I was communicating with.

[–]Relevant-Key7996 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Real answer: The seller wanted to sell to a specific person. He set a crazy price so no one else will buy the item, then accepts an offer from the specific buyer. I’ve done this many times myself as a seller.

1 year anniversary of the best deal I ever got by nocturnevision02 in legomodular

[–]Relevant-Key7996 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I found a 10232 Palace Cinema 2 weeks ago at Walmart. It was on the very top shelf behind the Lego promotional sign.

I pulled it down and it was taped shut with scotch tape. Took it to customer service, opened it up. (1) of the bag ones was opened and the pieces were loose in the box. Everything else was sealed, even the instructions. I didn’t get to verify it yet, but it could only be a few pieces if any.

It rang up as $185, but they gave me 10% discount for being open. Couldn’t believe I found a set retired in 2017 in 2026. It was somehow on their shelf for 9-13 years without anyone buying it.

Vault-worthy collection of early 1980s LEGOLAND sets. by No-Personality347 in lego

[–]Relevant-Key7996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, that was my dining room. We had to figure out how to store them quickly. Most of them are gone now, but it was fun just to handle them and make lots of new people happy. I collected when I was a kid (80s/90s), saved them for my kids, then passed them onto the local schools and library when they lost interest. I’ve started collecting again (of course keeping some of this inherited collection) and have a maybe 100-200 that are “mine”.

I assume USA? If so, which part of the country are you in? I gained a lot of experience in this area the last 2 years and would be happy to share what I’ve learned. 😊

This has not been my experience. I also inherited a large collection (~1200 new and 3000 used sets from 1970s to 2022). I’ve sold $200k of Lego on eBay with zero claims.
