I may be asking for a unicorn here but I've recently discovered that Lego does Christmas Village sets. I'm trying to get a few to do with my family and some of the ones I want are retired. People on Kijiji want $100 over the original price and I'm wondering if there is a better avenue to find these that doesn't support this system of buying sets and selling them sealed at the cost of my left one.

I don't really care if it's used, I just want to start a fun new tradition with my kids.

Alternatively, do retired sets come back into circulation again?

I'm wondering... Is this legit but done in a different factory or would something like this end up being inferior?

I can't tell what the quality is because there is no brand name and they don't make any claims about the source of bricks. It's definitely not Lego, so not coming from a Lego factory.
