I always assumed the 45 in Slope 45 means 45 degrees, and in Slope 33 it means
33 degrees, however if you calculate the exact degrees based on brick measures
it is not.

A standard 1 x 1 brick measures 7.9375 mm x 9.5250 mm (length/width x height
without the stud).

Building with Slope 45 bricks results in a slope of 50 degrees, not 45.
Building with Slope 33 bricks results in a slope of 31 degrees, not 33.

As is well know, assumptions are the mother of all f*ups, so I most likely assumed
wrong

Therefore... just curious, where do the 45 and 33 come from?

  Hi there. I hope everybody is fine. I recently found my old Pokemon English 1st
Edition Dschungel Booster Box. The box is open and only three boosters are missing
the other 33 are all present and still factory fresh sealed. My question is now,
where can I sell those for a good price. Okey a lot will say Ebay, but are there
any other market plattforms in the internet ? Please advise. Thanks in advance.

  Hi,

I was wondering if anyone is listing both there new and used Lego as used. I
can see a lot of benefit to it and very little reasons why I shouldn't. Just
wondering if anyone has tried it and how it effected sales.

Thanks

Yes, i've done that a long time it works just fine. There is a saying to
support this kind of approach to selling.

Better to underpromise and overperform, that the other way round.

It's all about managing expectations.

Good luck!

  I bought a lot of old lego bricks. There was about 50 2x4 bricks. As far as I
can tell they were all lego. But there is one brick which stands out. It doesnt
have a logo. Also when dropping it gently to a wooden table, it makes a metallic
sound. It looks and feels like plastic.

Its the red one in pictures.

Does anyone know what it is?

You can see on the picture that the red brick is a bit higher than the lego bricks,
which I have not seen on old lego bricks.

Also a metallic sound, or a sound as if it was made of glass, is not found in
lego bricks.

IMO it is not lego. My best guess is still ABC Copex.

  Hello,
Im just building the store and specialy for domestic market and EU, its great
option IBAN transfer.
How can be this option enabled? Dont need to pay 5% to Paypal.

Thank you.
Johny

Look under Settings - Payments - Offsite Payments - Add an offsite payment method

It doesn’t work like that for new sellers:

“““
Offsite payment methods are no longer available for new sellers as of June 8,
2017. However, you may request special permission to enable IBAN during or after
the New Seller Verification process by contacting the Help Desk.
***All new sellers will be required to have at least one onsite payment method
available in their store to receive IBAN permission.**
