toolbox1 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Hi. I am happy to be here. I am quite a toy collector but just started getting into lego after not having touched one in over 20 years. I have also started collecting nanoblocks as well which seem to be a neat adjunct to legos. If there are any other legophiles in ******. Virginia who have advice on where the best places are to buy stuff let me know. Thans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyfisher Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 I'm over in WV, about 2 hours from Winchester. Usually just look out for clearances at Walmart, target, TRU,etc. Have you had any luck on Craigslist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolbox1 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 I managed to find someone who sold me a 7965 millenium falcon misb for $75 but that was it. Craigslist is usually overpriced and most of the stuff is already opened or assembled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich B Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Welcome to the site! I live in Northern Va also. I don't know if there is a best place to buy Lego around here, but I buy the majority of my Lego from the Lego store at Tyson's Corner mall and at the Lego store at Potomac Mills mall. Also you can sometimes find various deals at Walmart and Target. I find some of the best deals tend to be from online sites like Amazon and yoyo.com. Let us know if you have any questions.

toolbox1 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 Thanks. I am looking forward to collecting lego. I do frequent both stores you mention. I found quite a few bargains post Christmas at targets and walmarts in the area, but I usually find myself buying the majority of lego on amazon(as well as my nanoblocks).

ThomasKyoto Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Welcome! I'm in Japan, so, if you need some nanoblocks you can't find in the US, I can help you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toolbox1 Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 any chance you can get a hold of the 5 story pagoda or shirikawa-go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
