Six months ago I was at the store wondering why on earth I passed up this cool LEGO set. I hadn't spent money on myself in a while, so I got it. I never got around to building it for several reasons, so I decided to put it in storage last night.

Imagine my shock when I go to put it away only to find the same exact set staring up at me, just dusty because I also had to put that one away because I couldn't find the time or space to build it.

I'm usually very good about tracking the sets that I buy. I double checked my list before I accidentally bought it the second time, and I must have forgotten to add it when I bought it the first time.

It is an expensive set, even for LEGO, but the return date for both has long since passed. Which means I get to build two blacksmith shops after I retire in 40 years.

    You have inspired me to also buy some lego sets that will wait for me until I retire, but I don’t have to wait as long as you 😄

    I wonder if there is a Lego rescue shelter for builders who never made it to retirement 🛟🏥

    You may be able to mark it up and sell on Amazon for ridiculous prices. Go look. Some of the sets on their are stupid expensive. I assume because they are hard to get or not available anymore.

    @MammaNeedHummus like a crazy cat lady shelter, except for lego builders?

    @Demolishun As a collector, that's Dark Side stuff. It's tempting and I stand to gain a lot, but nothing irritates me more than seeing a moderately expensive set being sold for a mortgage payment.
