Frequently asked questions

How much is LEGO Mineral Detector (6841-1) worth?

LEGO Mineral Detector is worth approximately $265 on the secondary market today, based on current listings and completed sales. BrickStats updates this value daily.

Is LEGO Mineral Detector retired?

Yes — Mineral Detector (6841-1) has been retired by LEGO and is no longer in production. Retired sets have fixed supply, which is why their prices are driven purely by the resale market.

Why is LEGO Mineral Detector so expensive?

Mineral Detector was released in 1980 and has since retired. Once LEGO stops producing a set, the only supply is what is already in circulation, so sealed copies in good condition compete for a shrinking pool of stock. That scarcity, not the parts, is what moves the price.
