eBay Watch: LEGO Harry Potter: Hogwarts Castle (4842) – CLOSED

Huckleberry — Tue, 06 May 2014 00:19:08 +0000

This is another beautiful set from the LEGO Harry Potter line. It is a very large set with 1,290 pieces and 11 minifigs. This is the LEGO Harry Potter set that I think all Harry Potter fans wish they could own. Let’s break down the numbers on this set:

Orignal MSRP: $129.99
Starting Bid: $0.99
Released: 2010
Auction Link

Check back later this week for the auction results.

UPDATE:

The auction sold with is a price of $270. That is just a little over double of the original price. It looks I should have invested in LEGO Harry Potter four years ago. I wonder if there any LEGO lines out right now that will soar in value so soon…

This set comes from the LEGO Lord of Rings line. It replicates the scene of the Battle at the Black Gate from The Return of the King. This is cool set that was only released last year.

Orignal MSRP: $59.99
Starting Bid: $30.00
Released: 2013
Auction Link

Check back later this week for the auction results.

Update:

The auction closed at $37.10. That is barely above the starting bid. Looks like LEGO Lord of the Rings is still readily available.

What a cool vintage set. The NASA space shuttle was one of the things that I always loved in elementary school in the 1980s. I can only imagine the joy I would have felt if had unwrapped this on Christmas morning.

Orignal MSRP: $38.50
Starting Bid: $89.99
Released: 1992

UPDATE:

Well this one held its original value but didn’t increase much.

eBay Watch: LEGO Harry Potter Diagon Alley (10217) – CLOSED

I wasn’t paying attention to the LEGO world for well over a decade and I am really sad about some of the sets that I missed out on. The saw this set on eBay and wish I would have bought it when it was new and reasonably priced.

Orignal MSRP: $149 (I doubt I would have bought it then either due to the price….)
Starting Bid: $175
Released: 2011
Auction Link: LEGO Harry Potter Diagon Alley (10217)

Check back later this week for the auction results.

UPDATE:
Auction Sell Price: $230.11

If you had invested the $149.99 in the S&P 500 you would roughly have $227 now. Looks like LEGO Harry Potter Diagon Alley is a better the better investment!
