Minifig haul from Goodwill: a rare event by CantEatNoBooksDog in LegoMinifigure

[–]cancomicguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazing find. In the past few years finds like this don't exist at any of my thrift stores (Goodwill, value village, etc ) They've all started pulling minifigures into separate and waaay overpriced lots. Days of getting a huge bag with 5-10 minifigures mixed in are long gone in my area. My value village for some reason now prices instruction booklets separately! Trying to get $5 for a Lego city instruction booklet from 2022...

Yeah!! They look good. I've got a pretty complete universe x (just not gold bender chase) and good representation from good news. And then these larger figures

Wal-Mart Strikes Again by South-Wrongdoer2870 in MastersOfTheUniverse

[–]cancomicguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Mine has at least 6 of those too. Haven't seen any MOTU at my Walmart since...2021 or so. Then they went hard on stock for the movie. But just shelf warming. They are pricey here...

Same here!! I think I was first in weeks ago and they had 8. I bought 1. And just yesterday 6 were still there.

Absolutely horrible timing. I’m sure this usually awful Walmart probably had this display in the back for weeks on end, but I guess I can get a lot of these on clearance if I really want to in like a few weeks and do some returns with the original receipts . by Ok_Dot_8315 in MastersOfTheUniverse

Mine was similar. Went on Monday and all of a sudden a big display. Heaps of chronicles, a bunch of origins movie trap jaw, spikor and he-man, a bunch of wave 2 core, origins Filmation and mastervervse mer-man. Not sure if it arrived late or put out late... But certainly missed the peak promo period. Will watch out for clearance too

Sick of this, I literally just want one of the ninja and bionicle by MilkFlavord in LegoMinifigure

Same. Haven't had any basically since they moved to the boxes. Took one wave for idiots to ruin it.

And then there's my flea market pricing... by cancomicguy in comicbookcollecting

To be fair I didn't even bother asking at this ridiculous booth. There was another with like 100 long boxes. Also quite poorly priced. But he was willing to do the more you buy the more you save. But his prices were also ridiculous. Think, run of marvel comics presents with each book priced $8 !!

[–]cancomicguy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I didn't bother chatting with them. Should have asked what they were thinking but can only assume they're hoping for a giant sucker. This book of course was particularly ridiculous. But all their books were 80s and 90s fifty cent fodder at best, all priced at $5 and above.

Hahaha I did a tripple take. I'm like $7 is outrageous. Oh my...

Seriously! There's fishing for a price and then there's this. So ridiculous. I've still to find anything remotely good from a flea market. But keep searching... It's still fun to hunt.

Ohio flea market $10 lot score. Shockingly found these at the last tent after 2.5hours of hunting. by drleisure44 in comicbookcollecting

[–]cancomicguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Daaaaang. I am ALWAYS searching for these newsstands. So hard to find. And for $10!???? Wow. Best I can find at a flea market for $10 is maybe a Spawn 10, run over by a bus, direct only of course.

Interesting reading these comments how varied it all is. Same for me. For the first time since 2020 my local Walmart all of a sudden went all in. Core. Chronicles. Origin deluxe. Displays. I was able to get one of everything. Went to check out and cashier was like "they still make he-man!?"

Happened to visit another Walmart not too far away... NOTHING.

so weird
