My goal right now is to own 1000 units of every set I buy and acquiring that number is just as difficult, if not more, than raising capital to purchase them. I need at least 2 years to find 1000 sets at a good price. The reason why I got London & NYC was because there wasnt enough U.S. Capitals at the $73ish price point. I can purchase 500 U.S. Capitals right now at $85 but that's a little high for me. I may have to do that if black Friday weekend doesn't have any good deals on this set. I was never going to mention this topic here but since we're talking large numbers I may as well do it. My apologies for sharing this on the Retiring Soon thread. If I were to ask you what the ideal number of units to own of a particular set if money wasn't an option, what would it be? I believe that number is 5000 units of just one set. "5000 units?! That's just ridiculous!" Not really when you think about it. I just don't sell online for myself. I sell to people who sell on Amazon, ebay, & people who ship tons of cargo to China. This isn't difficult to do either. It wasn't that long ago that I had no idea what I was doing and thought stacking 25 Santa's Workshop was an accomplishment. Even if you only sold on ebay, 5000 units should be the ultimate goal. If someone offered you 5000 of Fallingwater for $75 each would you not take it? Id do it in a heartbeat!
