Hello to all,

 

Recent months to buy the 8110 Unimog ... comes out later this year!

hopefully it's gone

 

I've got 3 for 145

I "manufacture" my own boxes by using a bigger box and simply cutting it down to size and re-taping seams with heavy duty reinforced parcel tape.  I use double-wall for the larger, expensive sets and wrap the set in a bin liner and then bubble wrap before fitting it snuggly in the box.  This helps protect it due to the heavy rain we have at the moment.  I've not paid for a box in months and I either re-use Amazon/Lego boxes or take them from supermarkets.  I buy large boxes of padded envelopes from Costco for the cheaper sets or those unboxed.  I've not actually sold a very valuable set (eg. 41999 or 71006) yet but, I'm tempted to list them for pick-up only.

I'm just about to post my last Iron Man ;-( and he's put in a box that I just cut out of a larger Amazon box.  It doesn't take too long to re-make a box once you have a knack for it.

Nice advice, I like the idea of wrapping sets in a plastic bin liner to protect from water. I ordered a Tower Bridge set from Amazon France, the box got sodden with all the rain which turned the cardboard to mush. This meant the soggy box ended up getting battered and offered no protection for the Lego set.
