Store is open so everyone can look at pieces.

I will add the sets later. 50k for pieces 75k for sets + pieces

Pick up only(Reno, NV) Really close to northern California right off the freeway.

email me @ theblockshop7@gmail.com for more pictures or any questions.

Thanks,

Joe

I would use the Banner field, too: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/display.page

It's far more visible on all product pages of your store, and difficult to
miss or ignore. The Announcement field text, on the other hand, is small
on the page periphery and can be dismissed or collapsed.

Trying to sell my entire store as I do not have the time for it anymore and it
has been closed for almost 2 years.

Is there an easy way to make my entire store a superlot?

Also I have a bunch of sets that are not in inventory that I was going to sell
separately. I got stuck on the upload image part of creating a "bulk lot" item

Store has a "current inventory average" value of 153k and sets have a "current
inventory average" of 60k, looking to get 75k for both or 30k for sets and 50k
for store OBO.

Any tips would be helpful

Thanks,

Joe

You could contact Brickmania and see if they want to buy a large portion of the
store. They're the biggest buyer of parts on the site and only go for new
lots.

Sweet thanks!!!! This does seem like the best way to do it. I will be working

I’d start by setting the selloff price as the minimum buy and reopening the store:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/management.page

Using any or all of these fields, Slogan ~ Announcement ~ Banner to convey
your intention with the high minimum: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/display.page

Opening your store places your inventory back onto the market, giving you more
exposure, allowing 24/7 perusal of your inventory and greatly increasing your
ability to cultivate prospective buyers.

In the meantime, you’ll no doubt generate offers to consider with your inventory
exposed with selloff caveats. Don’t drop your pricing, until you have structured
a deal. At which point, close your store and set it up, transacting with
a close store and password.

Just one of several ways of doing it, Joe.

You can create a custom item with your entire store at a fixed price if you aren’t
interested in negotiating the price. As I understand them, a super lot wouldn’t
help since anyone wanting to buy a single item from your store would automatically
be on the hook for US $75,000 worth of merchandise 😅

You are better off with what you just did, a forum post advertising the sale
from where people can reach out to you privately if they are interested.

LEGO MOC Wayne Manor + Batcave
https://www.flickr.com/photos/maclaughlin/albums/72157719193075866

The Giant Penny is one of the iconic trophies in the Batcave.

Here is a custom printed version and a larger custom made version.

Which do you like better?

Well, I’m going to be honest and that may hurt you, so sorry about that first

The custom printed one wins hands down… but then, isn’t printing cheating?

Now, the bad review on the big one: even knowing it’s supposed to be a giant
penny, I can’t see it. Starting with fact it’s not round. Then the brown shape
in the middle doesn’t look like anything recognizable, even squinting my eyes,
certainly not a face. Without indication, I’d have said “Maybe a beer pad?”

If you want to try again, don’t make so small a mosaic, it looks like Braille
or a Rorschach ink test. Maybe try something more like the Brick Sketches:

40386-1 (Inv) Batman
115 Parts, 2020
Sets: Brick Sketches: Super Heroes: Batman II

40428-1 (Inv) The Joker
170 Parts, 2020
Sets: Brick Sketches: Super Heroes: Batman II

…
But on so small a build, maybe simply use a real minifig head (with beard and
hair)? Make it 3D.

[…]
366 would be bad news

Well, LEGO colour IDs are incremental. The last (publicly known) colour was
365, so that the new ones are 366 and 367 is not surprising.

And it will only go on this way, so if LDraw wants to follow LEGO IDs, and as,
IMHO, doing one big change would be better than having to move one colour at
a time, LDraw will have to clear the numbers at least up to 400 if not 1000.

Otherwise, there’s the path used for LEGO-351: LDRaw-10351. So adding the new
ones as 10366 and 10367. But then, there’s LDraw-10378, so there’ll be another
problem in a few years….

Ryan,

would you please confirm that it is actually 366 and 367. 366 would be bad news

How about shadow RGBs for these opal colors?

Parts: Plate, Modified {Flat Silver}

Hi max, excuse a newbie, but what do you mean by other colours mixed?

No problem, maybe use a bit of dark gray, dark bluish gray, light gay, flat silver
etc, stones are never one color.

of course you mean add the illusion of colour and texture by using different
colour pieces!
