I wonder how well that holds over time. Maybe there is a huge price increase after LEGO stops manufacturing the set, with value not increasing much over time after the point at which buyers are left to the secondary market.
Also, listing fees. Swedish eBay owned Tradera charge fees and 10% of sales value.
But, I would love to save in Lego. Keep them around and look at the boxes.
- jopsen 8y agoWe really should start a Lego index fund buying up 10% of all new sets, storing them for 10 years then selling them on eBay. Maybe we should do tulips too while we're at it, I heard they give a huge return too :)
- yreg 8y agoLast black Friday I bought multiple boxes of Lego City series as an investment. We will see how this goes.
- bena 8y agoCity is a bad move. Licensed sets, Ideas, and modular Creator sets are better bets. You're really looking of uncommon pieces in rare colors or unique minifigures. The radar dish from the original UCS Millennium Falcon will fetch a couple hundred dollars because it's a custom print. There's an X-Men set "Wolverine Chopper Attack" or something that retailed for $20 but goes for about $60 on the secondary market because it's the only set with a Deadpool minifigure.
