Frequently asked questions
How much is LEGO Ski (8501-1) worth?
LEGO Ski is worth approximately $32 on the secondary market today, based on current listings and completed sales. BrickStats updates this value daily.
Is LEGO Ski retired?
Yes — Ski (8501-1) 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.
Has LEGO Ski gone up in value?
Yes. Ski launched at $6 and now trades around $32, an increase of 437.0%. See the price history chart for how it got there.
What is the price per piece for Ski?
At its $6 retail price across 34 pieces, Ski works out to about $0.176 per piece. Collectors often use price per piece to judge whether a set is good value.
Is LEGO Ski a good investment?
Ski currently trades 437.0% above its $6 retail price, and it is retired, so no new supply is entering the market. Past performance is not a prediction — condition, packaging and how long you hold all affect what a set actually sells for. BrickStats reports the numbers rather than giving investment advice.
Why is LEGO Ski so expensive?
Ski was released in 1999 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.
