Are the dropped pieces even hitting the floor? I swore that they burnt up upon
re-entry into the atmosphere.😏

Whether any of us believe that the packaging should be included or not, it is
to be included per Bricklink rules. Under Items For Sale Conditions for New
Sets they state, "Complete - Contents are brand new and may have been removed
from their plastic bags and handled for inventorying purposes only. Includes
all contents that originally came with set including extra parts, stickers, instructions
(if any) and original box/packaging." My new Collectible Minifigure
sets are sold with their opened packaging.

I thought that this requirement only applied to sets, not complete minifigures.

Technically we are both correct. It depends on how they are listed. They can
be listed as a set or a minifigure. If they are listed as a set, like what
the original poster showed, then they follow the rules for a set. If they are
listed as a minifigure, then they fall under the minfigure conditions.

  Hello everyone I was just wondering what is the best way to clean bricks that
are really yellow? I just bought the Tower Bridge and a lot of the white and
light grey bricks are are really bad. I’ve heard the best way is to use 3% hydrogen
peroxide and let it set out in in the sun for an hour or so, but have also heard
not to do it because they can go back to yellow in a few weeks. This is the first
time I’ve had to deal with this so any advice would really be appreciated. Thank
you

After some trial and error, I have had success de-yellowing white and grey pieces.
First, wash the pieces thoroughly. I use a clear glass casserole dish or
bowl and fill it with 3% hydrogen peroxide. I put the pieces in and set it on
a LED ultraviolet light panel and cover the whole thing with aluminum foil.
This allows the light and mild heat from the light panel to reflect back into
the container. I let it "cook" for about 6 hours stirring about once an hour,
then wash the pieces again. I learned that removing the pieces sooner would
lead to re-yellowing of the pieces in a relatively short time. Some pieces still
have re-yellowing issues like animal horns and tail ends that have a softer feel
than a brick to start with.

Afterwards, keep your pieces out of sunlight and heat. This is the main cause
of the yellowing in the first place.

Just spontaneous thoughts when creating your account, or were there personal
significance to any of the three bits of proffered self-identification?

No matter how trivial you might think it, others often find such things vicariously
enjoyable. Even if your post seems inconsequential to you, it's often not
to others and can be a fun distraction for both author and readers alike.

Some of the best reads here over the years for me, have been the more personable
anecdotes. I’d like to read yours. That is if you're bold enough to share?

My college nickname was "Buzz" due to my affinity for having very short hair
and giving myself haircuts with my hair trimmers. It shortly morphed into "Buzzard"
I guess because I like birds. Brick Buzzard for my store name obviously uses
my nickname that I still use decades later plus it has nice alliteration. My
user name is short for my store name. Lastly, my ID card was chosen to reflect
my favorite theme ... CASTLE!
