New here as well. Can you share what your thoughts are on targeting this set that has been out since 2017. What are you looking at on the supply side that you like so much? Not questioning the choice, just trying to learn.

Couple things:

1. Every set purchased over the last 7 years has been opened (people don’t invest until right about now or later)

Shelf life doesn’t have much of an impact on performance

2. This set has the highest demand of any set that has retired in the last 5 years. Better than the Sword Outpost.

Actually.... looks like same price at Target... limit 3 still

Are you buying with prime or paying for shipping? The limit 3 comes under the total for free shipping.

Best bet to stay above board here is to just add another random retiring cheap set to get over that threshold.

Paying shipping isn't the end of the world either though.

I’m new here and just starting up! Do I need an llc for an Amazon Bussiness account?

Hi Jarek I’m new as well. Do you know when the retirement of this set is? If so is that the main driver of your investment in this set?

December 31st

That and the fact that it has heavy demand.

Read my latest hit list update for more info.

Found it at Walmart for this price, but only 1 in stock for pickup, no shipping offered

Do you know of any brick n mortar retailers that price match Amazon? Walmart, target, etc?
