This is normally $32 according to price research. Not a great deal at all.

It was this price a few weeks ago but I appreciate any Harry Potter LEGO posts. That's all that's on my kids birthday/Christmas list.

This looks like something a 4 year old would build

A lego set... designed for a child. No way, what a crazy concept.

I can recall when the earliest version of this set really blew up the resale market for purple pieces.I'm wondering if sets like this and Lego Friends means that purple is no longer the unobtanium that made parting out the first Knight Bus set something like a 10x return on your investment.

I can't say I know much about Lego arbitrage... I bought the Batmobile Ultimate Collectors Edition [brickset.com] back in the day on clearance and then proceeded to... open it and build it with my nephews, of course. (I think it was returning something like a 300% investment gain within months)

Good luck!
Jon

To each their own. But I'm with you on this one.

As someone else said, if you've got a kid that's in to Lego Harry Potter...

Also, I'm starting to worry that there won't be any decent Lego deals in the year of pandemic, so I'm accepting mediocre deals rather than run out of time and end up empty handed for Xmas...

My 4 year old absolutely loves this bus. The third level opens at the top and can be removed. The first and second level have a huge swinging door and a chandelier inside. Driver seat swivels too. Lots of places to put minifigs in. So many windows let's you see all your characters in the bus. This thing is so much fun.

Or worse, paying full price!
