LEGO RF ID Sensor is a Mindstorms NXT accessory set released in 2008, containing 3 pieces. The set includes an RF ID sensor and two RF transponders designed for use with the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT system. It requires the complete LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT set 8527 for operation, and a connector cable is not included.

A new and sealed RF ID Sensor is currently valued at around $94, with annual growth of approximately 7%, which is higher than other NXT sets. The average used price is $8 for those in good overall condition. Based on current trends, this set could be valued near $100 within the next year. The set was available for 20 months, from April 2008 to December 2009.
RF ID Sensor is a rare LEGO set. We have not seen set MS1048-1 available in good/new condition online or in retail stores for over 2 years. Given how hard it is to find, the estimated value in new condition of $93.82 may not reflect its true collectible worth.
There are currently no new/sealed listings available for RF ID Sensor at this time.
