Anyway, in those years I’ve developed what could be termed: category likes. Certain
categories within the catalog I tend to buy from when bored, simply because I
enjoy or appreciate the items. I would call it collecting, but it’s not really
that. I have collections, none Lego related.
No, I spend money on these Lego, rationalizing the expenditure with “I’ll sell
it someday in our normal course of doing business here." I guess the perceived
difference for me, is that simple fact; the intention to sell at some point
Well this morning, after several cups of jo, I started pondering those categories
I’ve come to enjoy, and asked myself why? That is, why do I appreciate them,
say over others?
Are there items of particular categories within the BL catalog, you tend to
enjoy more than others? If so, what are they and why the affinity?
I’d enjoy reading your thoughts on this, and have mischievously omitted a personally
salient bit for now: my categories. I will post them, but I would kinda like
to read some of your thoughts, first
-Thanks

Hair and Headgear as they're the one component that really helps define a
minifigure. Assembling them onto a head is also very satisfying
Hair, Headgear and Heads are one of the main things my store specializes in.
Small and easy to store with a good demand for them. They certainly work for
me

I love printed tiles. (not stickers, but printed) I saw a mosiac made of them
at my first Brickworld Chicago and it just kinda stuck with me. I am happy whenever
I get to add a new one to the catalog so the artists out there have more to work
with.
Second place would be all the minifigs that are dressed up in costumes.
I also love sorting and selling anything from the Technic or Bionicle categories.

| Hi all,
in March of this year I was searching for some parts. I found them only for sale
at Australian stores NOT shipping to Europe.
After my cry-out to my fellow BL-ers here, LegOhHeaven stepped in to the rescue.
Now, about 2 months later, my parts have arrived safely, items even packed as
a gift (see picture).
Well thanks for the help LegOhHeaven and the time you took to help me complete
some projects!
I am glad, happy and thankful to be part of this community !!!
