Sample

See what an issue looks like

Our sample issue covered the December 31 retirement wave: 301 products on LEGO's last-chance list, 96 days to go, and 15 of 17 entries verified same-day. Two we couldn't verify are tagged [UNVERIFIED] instead of guessed.

Read the sample issue

Verified, not guessed

  • Licensed data first. Retirement signals from the Brickset API and aftermarket prices from BrickLink's official API — not scraped.
  • Re-checked within 24 hours. Every price and availability claim is verified again the day before we publish.
  • Honest about dates. LEGO publishes no official retirement dates, and extends them. We treat list membership as the signal and dates as provisional.

Questions, answered plainly

Is the weekly digest really free?

Yes. The free weekly digest is free forever. A paid tier with instant alerts and price history is coming later — nothing about the free email changes.

Will you tell me which sets to buy?

No. We report prices, discounts, and retirement signals with the numbers attached. We don't give investment advice and we never suggest a set will go up in value — that's your call.

How do you verify entries?

Every price and availability claim is re-checked within 24 hours of publishing. Anything we can't verify gets an [UNVERIFIED] tag instead of being presented as fact. Each issue publishes its verification rate.

Do your alerts guarantee I'll beat a sellout?

No. Alerts fire when we verify a price drop or stock change, but sellouts can happen fast. We don't guarantee an alert will beat one.

Which sets count as "retiring soon"?

Only sets on LEGO's last-chance list or with confirmed exit dates. Retirement dates are provisional — LEGO extends them — so we treat list membership as the primary signal and say so when a date is uncertain.

Are some of your links affiliate links?

Yes. Some links are affiliate links — they support the tracker at no cost to you. We disclose it in every issue.
