Hi guys! I have been reading the BrickPicker forums for a few weeks now... got back into collecting lego about 4 months ago. I have a couple of sets each of the best sets over $100, like Star Wars Imperial Shuttle, all the modular building sets, 1 deathstar, 1 super star destroyer and a bunch of technic and train. These are all new in box from store shelves, Amazon and Lego shop at home. Some questions for the seasoned investors, how long do you typically wait to start selling? Do you wait for a certain increase in value or just a period of time? Do you continue to buy every year and sell off older sets that have hit EOL and are more valuable? Maybe a rolling 3-5 year kind of thing? Any advice on keeping the boxes in good shape? I have them on nice plastic racks in my basement and stacked so that there isn't too much weight on any of the boxes, usually no more than 3 large sets high... Any advice you could give would be great! Thanks guys!
