Belac Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Someone on bricklink forum posted this article. It's really just random brain stuffing info, but I found it interesting. https://thetoyzone.com/the-countries-that-pay-the-most-and-least-for-lego?utm_source=join1440&utm_medium=email&utm_placement=newsletter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brickvoyeur Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 (edited) His collection is small and insignificant. He won't be concerned with being banned on SAH His RRP is misleading and his overvaluations are going to cause even more dipwads to get into this I'm going to pivot on my investments now. I'm done with plastic bricks. Can someone tell me which exchange I can use to buy puts on his hairline?

cladner Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 this is like the third time we have seen mainstream financial media get into the bricks as investment. we had forbes in 2019 - https://www.forbes.com/sites/simonmoore/2019/09/28/lego-sets-see-strong-returns-for-investors-beating-wine-cars-and-art/?sh=799aee7871ec 2015 was the first really big lego better than gold investing rush - https://www.cnbc.com/2015/12/28/is-lego-a-better-investment-than-gold.html seems like its on a 3-4 year cycle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landphieran Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Magic the Gathering has faced similar fears of people investing in it. Arguably a much easier thing to store and sell and not nearly as "consumable". It hasn't really impacted it yet. Realistically this guy and most "investors" hold more sets than they sell, eventually they realize they have too much and find 3rd party outlets to dump it. Next time i see one of these videos I hope @redcell or @Raven is on WSJ showing us how they do it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would really pay a (small) fee to see the operation of @ravenb99or @redcellor @landphieran - to see if I am on the right track or just watch some lego warehousepron and see what I can improve.

Forge99 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Like to give a shout out to one channel I have recently started watching for the past month or so, The Dyslexic Geak Lego channel Comes across as a real nice, genuine Lego fan, clearly has been collecting for a long while given some of the sets he has, some I haven't seen for years. Love his Lego room, so often all I see on these types of videos are huge great big Lego rooms that are difficult to replicate due to how big they are, his set up is nice looks like the type of Lego room I can realistically hope for. Has a decent collection of sealed sets. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrcKing Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 I came across this series called LEGO Rewind where each video looks back to classic themes, what they were about and how they changed the brand going forward. With a playlist reaching almost fifty clips averaging roughly ten minutes each, this can take a while to browse through. Not really a LEGO focused channel but these at least deserved a mention. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Came across the channel of a very serious LEGO collector called DuckBricks. Dude has a massive collection covering every inch of the walls and even the ceiling. He does set reviews, reveals, some interviews, and other odd bits. Somewhat similar to the LEGO Rewind series I previously mentioned, DuckBricks has one of his own with LEGO Lookbacks though primarily focused on just the sets themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOrcKing Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Found a new channel called Bricked to Perfection mostly centered around looking over the large-scale builds for adults LEGO has been cranking out. (Also, the LEGO Ideas program.) The production quality and overall presentation is quite good. His reviews of the BrickLink Designer Program are what caught my eye.

Sorry, but as soon as I heard “Patreon Members” in the first 10 seconds I bailed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
