LEGO 10189 Taj Mahal was a 5,922 piece Advanced Models set released in 2008. It used to be the highest fetching LEGO on the secondary market for many years. However, the re-release of Taj Mahal 10256-1 completely devalued the set for a time period in which we saw prices got from over $2-3K to less than $500 USD. Currently, 10189 has rebounded quite a bit and has gained back its original momentum after the second release of Taj Mahal was retired.

A new and sealed Taj Mahal is currently valued at around $1,036, with annual growth of 5.6% that is expected to level off to around 2.1% in the coming year. The average used price is $250 for those in good overall condition. New and sealed listings currently range from $998 to $1,399. Recent market trends show a period of price correction, with values declining over the past year. The set was available for 27 months, from August 2008 to November 2010.

“The set is pretty big once its fully connected and is extremely detailed all around. The towers on the four corners of the base are a little wobbly, but the rest of the set is stable. The dome on top uses sphere-building techniques that many professionals use in creating... More lego land models.”

“It is based upon the white marble structure that was built at Agra, India during 1632 through 1653. The set is only meant for display and not for everyday play considering its very large size and elegant features.”
