General Buying & Selling

I bought Helms Deep from someone and guess how they shipped it? No fn box! Just the box the set came in. How can someone be this stupid?

Well somehow, I was able to pick up Arkham Asylum for $37 shipped. The box is beat up and has a huge slash through the middle that happened to go through the first page of book 1 of the instructions.

LEGO is working on stopping 3rd party sales, if it hasn't already. They want the buyers to take notice of where the LEGO se…

I found this post by Brickpicker member, John Crumpton, to be very helpful to me and I would like to make more people aware of it. I often find myself reading assorted LEGO blogs and forums and as an American, I often am not familiar with various stores that sell LEGO bricks in the UK and other European countries. I am trying to educate myself on the differences between American stores and various UK and European stores and appreciated the effort John put into his reply. The thread might also be helpful to other Brits who are not familiar with all of the following stores. Thanks John. To other members, please feel free to add some other stores from the UK or other…

has anyone sold any items on bricklink, any suggestions while creating my own seller account? For me bricklink seems more attractive place to future sell my items than ebay as it only takes around 3% of your money rather than 10%.
