There were good times and bad, but there are no more to be had. Farewell to
20+ years.

One order is blocking me from unregistering. Buyer received their order about
1 month ago.

Please remedy and unregister my full account. I no longer wish to be part of
this crappy site.

#23129829

My site reputation (buying and selling) obviously means nothing. Nearly 21 years
wasted here.

What kind of game / gimmick is this supposed to be?

3 lots max
Most items $0.001
Minimum shipping of just under $6

It doesn't seem to be worth it for either the buyers or the seller. Officially,
I cannot see how they are breaking any rules, but it just seems off.

https://store.bricklink.com/zombitroid?p=zombitroid#/terms

Can anyone offer a theory on this?

Why does it take so many days for Lasership to aquire the packages from Lego
S@H?

Fedex was so much better and more consistent. Fedex also didn't come up
with weird B.S. reasons why they "couldn't" deliver certain days
like Sunday. Each time it is just a made up excuse instead of just being honest
that they don't want to deliver* (which is okay, just make it policy).

I now only buy exclusives from Lego S@H because of this lousy change. Rant over.


*
a) we couldn't find your address
b) security issue with leaving a package
c) other lame excuses that I cannot recall

I am in the market for the new Gringotts set. I only want the bags for the upper
(main) structure and corresponding instructions(if possible). No minifigs, dragon,
vault system, box, etc.

USA preferred due to shipping costs. Please use BL messaging.

Until sold or the official listings go live.

Please find custom lot in store. BL won't let me sell it the easy way with
visibility.

I think I do free shipping on $49.

The pop down feature does not work on my laptop. Nothing happens when I click

Any thoughts or suggestions?

I vaguely recall problems when Lego moved to its current system with some members
losing points and having to deal with customer service to reclaim them. I recommend
tracking your points in the coming days, especially if you retain large balances.


See article of changes to Lego site (Aug. 21) on Brothers Brick:

I would like to find a reliable USA buyer with a very good reputation to sell
this to. I'm willing to offer a much better price than the current lowest
of $280 (in USA).

It is one of my favorite figures so I'm a bit wary to sell it to just anyone
and increase my risk of loss or issues.

Please use BL contact to reach me. Offers welcome (all sales through BL).

I realize that we're in the summer slump, but I am willing to make deals
on slightly larger orders (about $100 or so).

I'm motivated to generate about $300-350 in new sales to purchase Ninjago
City.

I have the rare Jango Fett helmet, 2 large Technic Concrete mixers, power functions,
& a small number of figures.

I will consider offers. Shipping is free on orders of $50 or more (should happen
automatically upon checkout). I only sell in the USA.


P.S. I will search for more figures to add this weekend. I'm still trying
to debate letting go of the rare Harley Quinn from Apocalypseburg that I have
in storage.

In an effort to clear my inventory and raise extra funds for upcoming set releases,
here are some store promos:

Free shipping on orders of $49 or more
Extra 10% discount on orders of $99 (use manual invoice)

------------
Otherwise, I need somewhere between 38-50% of current price for a large sale
(~$400 in my pocket after discounts). USA offers will be considered.

I anticipate that this will be an expensive year for upcoming Lego sets (based
on rumors and prerelease info).

I am still looking for a USA trading partner or a few. I have what is
listed in my store, plus some other misc. figs and sets. Password to browse:
shop56218

The pricing in my store may be off of avg., but I am happy to negotiate pricing
to create fair trades.

I have these sealed, but not listed:
2x Technic Concrete Truck 42112
1x Star Wars D-O 75278

Looking for sets per this post:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1366660

Or parts to build another castle project or two (examples below):

200x LBG Brick 1x1 3005
200x LBG Brick 1x2 3004
150x LBG Brick 1x3 3623
150x LBG Brick 1x4 3010
100x LBG Brick 1x6 3009
50x LBG Brick 1x8 3008
100x LBG Brick Mod. 1x4 w/ masonry profile

+ lots of misc. basic and modified bricks, plates, and slopes. I would prefer
to do trades of at least $25 due to the high cost of shipping.

P.S.
Of course I would be thrilled to trade for a 10305 castle (w/ or w/o figures
& animals).

My next castle project is probably this, once I source more parts:

I've been moving along at a slow but steady pace on this project for just
over a month now. I probably place between 30-100 pieces per building period,
due to the constant need to reexamine pictures and search for and/or buy parts.

I only knew about V1 when I first started, but later found V2. So my build is
V2 in V1 orientation (with some necessary color changes due to availability).


Links to poVoq's models (these are NOT mine and I am free building strictly
from photos):

V1: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/a2bb5e22-b2bd-46b4-b4cd-ad8c9a6b89dd
V2: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/a13ec681-7424-4d41-bd58-bb5e30f69c65

* 
910001-1 (Inv) Castle in the Forest
1928 Parts, 6 Minifigures, 1 Gear, 2021
Sets: BrickLink Designer Program

Final project cost will be approximately $350 (~1,500 parts, including s&h costs),
not including the other ~1,500 necessary that I already had. I also intend to
build a section for the other end of the drawbridge and maybe some kind of moat.

At $5 per figure this is really disappointing. However, the advantage of this
packaging is in reducing plastic waste.
