10 years. Now, I noticed that some LBG parts have changed to Old Light Gray.
Has anyone else seen such metamorphosis ?

| Hey Y'all -
I'm considering hanging up the bricks. This old Gorilla is getting tired
and losing a bit of motivation. Hiring sorting monkeys is possible, but not
really a good option for my store size. I have a small store here in coastal
NC about 30 minutes north of Myrtle Beach, SC. At this point, I have NOT liquidated
anything, so my full inventory is available and hasn't been cherrypicked.
I have approximately 111k parts in roughly 10k lots with a BL 6 Mos avg of
around $9.5K. I would like to nab a 40% sale price. Also available at a bargain
would be about 30 TuffStore cabinets with hundreds of drawer dividers, at least
a 100 lbs give or take of unsorted lego, and maybe another 150 pieces or so of
unlisted minifigs. Inventory quality is a mix of new and used with the used
being very good and the drawers very accurate, as is confirmed by my 100% feedback
score after 2 1/2 years of selling and 1600+ orders.
I'm not opposed to shipping, but it would be expensive for you. I would
much prefer for you to come on down to my neck of the jungle and bring a big
van, or a small trailer. I can shrink wrap the cabinets with inventory inside,
but because I am keeping about 20 or so cabinets, some of the inventory would
need to be bagged. Pictures and/or a Brickstore file is available on request.
Shoot me your thoughts, questions, or comments.
Gorilla

| The recent post by Saitobricks.ca about the Bricklink branded duster has me wondering
if an ordinary make-up brush would work as a viable cleaning tool for my collection
of sets on display.
My collection of sets on display has expanded quite a bit recently. In the last
year alone, it has gone from only three sets to seven sets at the current time.
It's becoming a bit of a chore to keep them clean and dust free of dust.
More sets are in the planning stage for later on down the road.
Anyone have any experience cleaning lego with something like a make-up brush?

I was going through some old bricks that I have and noticed something very interesting...
On the 1 x 6 bricks without Bottom Tubes, with cross supports. Item # crssprt02
The studs have the old style script along with the modern style.
Anyone else see this? I only have 5 of them and the are all that way, so I'm

| Hello Bricklink community — My son built a huge impressive Lego town in the garage,
but now it needs to go to make way for a gym.
I have a set of four amazing IKEA Lagkapten 78.75" long table tops with Adils
legs. (See: https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/lagkapten-tabletop-white-00460836/)
The tables have been custom fit with latches to make it possible to securely
fasten them together into a huge steady 78.75" x 94.5" rectangle. These
tables work great to display Legos, but are also useful for any number of household
hobbies.
Please contact me if you'd like these tables. Absolutely free. You just need
to pick them up by Feb 26-Mar 1. We are located in Marin County, California.
Please DM me if you are interested in taking these.

| When I first started selling I bulk ordered plastic deli containers from a wholesale
restaurant store. Great for small stores
I quickly moved to the plastic baggie
Each part has it's own bag, and then within that bag are the separate colors.
Each color has their own bag. Then all similar pieces go into one of those 18
gallon storage tubs. Example: all normal bricks have 1 bin, the modified bricks
have their own.
The problem is, it still takes me forever to go through the bin to find the correct
part bag, to then go through that bag for the color bag.
I can't afford enough drawers to have the drawer system I want.. but do yall
have any suggestions on what I can do now without spending a ton to help with
storage?!

Well this is a twisted tail of "What the heck is this?" and yes I am
aware of the "it is fake" crowd but I can assure you I have documentation
to backup the "real" claim.
This is a one of a kind LEGO brick and yes it is 14k Gold.
I am not very good in photos and this thing even makes me look good.
Sometimes it is better to be lucky then good looking that is for darn sure.
Have a great weekend.

| Hello BrickLink Community,
I'm in the early stages of developing an analytics app specifically for BrickLink
store owners and am seeking your valuable feedback. The goal of this app is to
provide insightful analytics that can help store owners make informed decisions,
optimize their inventory, and enhance their store's performance.
Here's what I envision the app will offer:
- Detailed sales analytics
- Inventory management insights
- Trend analysis to predict future demand
I would love to hear from you about:
1. What are the biggest challenges you face in managing your BrickLink store?
2. Are there specific analytics or data points you wish you had easy access to?
3. Have you used any analytics tools before, and if so, what did you like
or dislike about them?
4. What features would make an analytics app truly valuable for you?
Your experiences, challenges, and insights are incredibly important to me. They
will guide the development of this app to ensure it meets your needs and addresses
the real pain points of managing a BrickLink store.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback. I'm
here to listen and incorporate your ideas into making something that genuinely
benefits the BrickLink community.
Looking forward to your responses!

Why is it that 21344 is created with the wrong sticker sheets and the 2 blocks
with misprints? They do not make sense that the correct ones should be created
as alternate items?
I agree that Lego makes changes to some sets, but a set where misprints are corrected
should not be seen as 2 different versions?

1. Any thoughts on how to liquidate everything ASAP?
2. Would selling everything by the pound on eBay be an option? - Not very attractive
I'm sure.

THis morning, they have asked again and now want a copy of my bank statement,

emailed the buyer and sent messages to this person through Bricklink. This person

100% complete and the buyer will not respond and let me know what to do? It
was an honest mistake and I really don't want to get a negative feedback
rating. I've sent 4 messages so far so I am trying to fix the issue. What
does a seller do at this point, when the seller is trying to fix the issue but

| Hi Bricklinkers,
I had a buyer who purchased 15x 4073 (New) in pearl dark grey (PDG). He sent
me a message today said I had supplied black instead of PDG. I checked my inventory
& I only have PDG in the drawer so I'm confident order was correct. I asked
him to check as difference between black & PDG is subtle. No it is black (offered
to provide photo).
My attitude is no point arguing over a few cents. I source my new parts from
unopened sets or directly from Lego so I can't offer the buyer anything else.
Automatic refund for the item.
I'm interested in other seller's experiences.
Thanks in advance.
