Incredible how fast the price changes. Got the BD-1 at 30% off. The AT-AT is now back to $160!

In case people also noticed this, for the duration of the Prime Big Deal discount I was gated from selling both sets. Now that the price has reverted and it is no longer on sale, I am now ungated. It was a very short restriction window.

Couldn’t go all in yet. Did order 10 of each. It’s not as much as I’d like, but it’s a start. 🚀 🙏🏻

Never overextend yourself!

Having restraint is good.

Definitely missed out on the deals.

Keep an eye out. They can pop up again and there may be more/same deals tomorrow.

Will alert if so.

Managed to order 5 of each, but now I see I'm restricted from selling most Lego sets, even though I am ungated. I can't even apply to sell, it just says they aren't accepting new sellers.

You think I should cancel my order, or just wait and see if things change?

I would wait.

Most sets are available 1 year post retirement.

Is it normal for them to restrict retiring sets? Looking at the list of 7 you sent out last week, the Technic Monster Jam set was the only one restricted for me.

In Q4 of every year, Amazon clamps on all popular toys.

It’s not just LEGO or retirement years.

Is it possible to go around buying through Prime by having it priced matched by other stores like target and walmart? AFAIK they're willing to price match online offers, but not sure about prime deals.

It's worth a shot for sure.
