  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 Fellow Lego enthusiasts,

I'd like to open a can of worms and state that Animals that are based on
Characters should be classed as Minifigures.

We now have "Brick Built" figures being included as Minifigures (EG: Unikitty
& Super Mario) However Animals that are Characters in their respective TV show
or Movie are considered Animals? (EG: Scooby Doo from Scooby Doo & Lotso the
Bear from Toy Story)

What are your thoughts?

Interesting. Never heard of them before.

In France, until very recently, they were used to pay fines (speeding tickets…)
and other occasional taxes.
At the beginning, they were used more widely for a lot of taxes.  Customs & excise
for instance, or rights on sales or official documents, licences, passports….
They are proof you paid.
And they existed before postal stamps, so, actually postal stamps are just a
special form of fiscal stamps.


For fines, you got a letter/form by mail, you went to the local “tabac-presse”
(tobacco-press) shop to buy the stamps, you put them on the form and send it
back.  This way, you didn’t send cash by mail (which is forbidden in France)
and didn’t have to go to the Treasury administration building, to wait in line
for hours….

Now it’s all “dématerialisé” (virtual) but you still need them, for instance
for a passport.

But I really don't know where I could find Playmobil old parts from the 80s.
I'm looking for pieces from the 3550 galleon set.

Thanks and best regards.

I see some on eBay. I don’t know any better place to look.

  Leopard37 was able to do something really cool with a really cool group this
year!



I was browsing the Creations for Charity website earlier this year and noticed
that the last couple of years there was nothing given out in Canada. I decided
to ask whether or not they wanted a Canadian presence this year and was so excited
to hear back that I could help them distribute to local kids this year.



I run a Bricklink and BrickOwl store and was connected with a LEGO Collector's
Canada Facebook group earlier this year and have been very blessed by the LEGO
community during my layoff last year due to COVID. It was very rewarding to be
able to give back to the community and pass on the best toy ever to some kids
who may not get anything this holiday season.



I was able to obtain 88 sets to donate. After hearing a call out on the local
radio for a need for gifts for 8-12 year olds at Santa's Anonymous they all
got delivered there on Wednesday December 8th. Here's hoping some kids in
Edmonton have an enjoyable time building their sets this holiday break.


You're a good man, Tyson.

It's inspiring, thanks for sharing.

Wow, I use a box top lid from a Staples printer paper box for the same reason
you do. It's sturdy and the perfect size for almost every order. I've
used it for a long time, the corners are taped up because I've stepped on
it more than once. I have unused box lids that are exactly the same but it never
occurred to me to replace it.

I Pack my orders every day the same way. As I delete the lot/line off my .bsx
file I toss the bagged lot into Lego box that I have been using for quite some
time now. It's one half of the Lego ideas Birds set. It has always been
the perfect size, 95% of my orders fit in there and then just pour into a bubble
mailer.

I went to go pull an order and nearly had a panic attack looking for the thing,
wondering if it got tossed with the trash run I did on Saturday. Then I found
it and realized I just might be a little crazy.

Any others have similar oddities they would like to share?

I have a little 6x6x2 inch box that I use for pulling orders and ran into the
same situation after a birthday party for my daughter a few months back. Found
out on of the kid was using the lid as a ramp for cars in another room. It was
promptly replaced.

Have you ever been attached to an object that was walking the fine line of nearly
being garbage?

I Pack my orders every day the same way. As I delete the lot/line off my .bsx
file I toss the bagged lot into Lego box that I have been using for quite some
time now. It's one half of the Lego ideas Birds set. It has always been
the perfect size, 95% of my orders fit in there and then just pour into a bubble
mailer.

 
Set No: 21301  Name: Birds
* 
21301-1 (Inv) Birds
580 Parts, 2015
Sets: LEGO Ideas (CUUSOO)

I went to go pull an order and nearly had a panic attack looking for the thing,
wondering if it got tossed with the trash run I did on Saturday. Then I found
it and realized I just might be a little crazy.

Any others have similar oddities they would like to share?

I suspect there aren’t many here that frequent the forum but I know of one or
two.

Cornwall is stunning at any time but I do like watching the stormy seas on the
coast, not many people about at this time of the year, they are missing out on
some spectacular natural beauty.

Thank you for taking time to research the UK internet.

Really wish I could help in some way. But how such things operate over there
are beyond me.

Did a little digging, though. It seems BT's track record as IP in Cornwall
has been spotty. But the info was a few years old and therefore not helpful to
you.

No clue as to how many Cornish read the BL forum, or how often. Hopefully you'll
get someone with firsthand knowledge of the region's broadband, chiming in.

Good luck. It looks like a beautiful part of UK to call home.

No, I guess not and I'm not even sure if I would want them to. Everyone should
be free to run their store any way they like after all, as long as they don't
break any laws.

What would be really nice though, is a filter that would let me exclude stores
with minimum lot values and per lot fees from the search results, in the same
way that I exclude non-IC shops.

  I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

Bricklink are not going to do anything about it, especially for fees that are
added on using their own (seller customisable) fee algorithms at checkout.

So just least favourite the store and forget them.

What's the lowest parts to fees ratio that you've seen? Should these
stores be named?

I've seen it called fee avoidance, unfair competition, buyer luring/tricking
and other things over the last couple of years of my BrickLink life here on the
forum.

I've also seen a lot of people defending it because time consuming orders
are not profitable.

From my personal experience, and from seeing how frustrated both my girlfriend
and mother-in-law get, I would call it a "buyer deterrent" that reflects badly
on all stores. Yes, you can read the terms in advance but how many other places
can you name, where the price on the shelf is not the price you are expected
to pay? How many new buyers just give up on BrickLink before they even get started,
thinking "these are just a bunch of con artists"?

The basket on the screenshot is just an example. I sorted all the parts by price
and kept adding until I met the minimum buy. A single minifig basket added for
comparison.

To be clear, I would be very annoyed with an order like this as well but I would
fulfil it and make a mental note that my prices need to be raised...

I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

You might have accidentlly turned on/off the SNAP button at the top of the screen

Which strongly suggests this is a capacity issue, either with BL's footprint
on AWS, or possibly with the selected payment service.

The time from mid-November thru late-December is a heavy online shopping period.
It's where many online marketplaces get stress tested (by real live buyers).

FWIW it doesn't seem to be the issue we saw earlier this month with the global

of what he's seeing.

Imagine my surprise to find out that this is still going on. I think it's
time for Bricklink to put an end to vendors, who for some reason or another(mainly
politics), won't ship too places that they don't like. Bricklink needs
to set a policy that simply states "If you are unwilling to ship to every Bricklink
user then you need to leave and sell your wares elsewhere". It's your site
not theirs - time to shut this down once and for all.

Personally, I do not ship to the Arctic or Antarctica. Never have and never will
no matter how many buyers want me to.

Thank you. It's a fine time of year here, when family and friends come together.
Doesn't get much better in my book.

This year it's just us (my son, daughter and I) and we're celebrating
with meal today, tomorrow we're going on a hike. Gonna start the bird here
soon, it'll be a simple Thanksgiving meal this year. I've got lined up:
mash potatoes, turkey gravy (with lots of turkey bits), cornbread stuffing, string
beans and a nice local cranberry sauce made at one of the cranberry farms over
on the coast here in Washington. And of course, pumpkin pie

And of course, libations! My son and I will no doubt share of a nice rye whiskey
from a local distillery we both enjoy, Woodinville. My daughter who would normally
have her Martini Bianco with seven-up, can't have alcohol any longer. I'll
come up with something nice for her to enjoy, instead.

Thanks for posting

A meta request for members of the Forum (and by definition BrickLink) ...

If you start a thread, please participate in it.

This morning, I was reading a thread, started by a member that has a customer
problem. They have not replied to any of the suggestions from other members.
Out of curiosity, I went back and looked at their post history. Over the past
12 months, they have started 20 threads, and never participated in any of them.
They have made 3 or 4 replies to other member's threads, but never replied
to their own threads/questions/problems, or suggestions from other members.

Please, participation is vital.

I have been using u-tube to help me work my way around the seller side of things.
The one I came across is made by a US seller on here that he updates very often
with new content tips and tricks and very easy to follow and with step by step
guides etc. Will not plug the user as I am not sure if I can get away with
it in the forum.

A couple of purchases ago I found what I believe to be a .22 spent cartridge,
not a common thing to find here in the UK.

I’ve still got boxes of non Lego items that I’ve yet to find a home for.

Always curious about the odd things you find in bulk lots.

  Here are my experiences with custom printing:
EclipseGrafx - Costs a bit, but I paid so they did it. They did design work
too. This was on minifigs.
Original BrickEngraver - Expensive and like pulling teeth to get work done.
It took lots of prodding and 9 months to get work done. All tiles. Work looks
fine.
Fab bricks: Very inexpensive, quick, and easy. All tiles. I don't like
the white border around the artwork.
Bricksanity - Also very inexpensive, quick, and easy. Great work. Good response
to their web form; sporadic when it comes to trading emails (which is necessary
for printing on non-white tiles, last time I checked).

I'm going to try to stick with Bricksanity for tiles and will probably use
EclipseGrafx for future minifig work.

If you want pictures, message me.

as i said in my original message, bricksanity doesn't respond to any emails
or messages, i used them a few years again and they were great so i was hoping
they still were, ive dropped a message to EclipseGrafx to see if they can help

Oh, I think I got it: you added a pause after “no,” making it “Wrong, parts like

The good old punctuation trick! Eats, shoots and leaves.

Here's a 98232c01pb02 for you, one for person next to you, and a couple more
for the folks in the back

Peter Scolari from Newhart and Bussom Buddies died. Rather young at 66. I bought
a Halloween custom from one of the 2nd had stores in Burbank and it was his for
one episode of Bussom Buddies.

Reading this entire thread has just inspired me to watch this again:

I feel he could have filmed this scene at home, with Lego in his washing machine!
Would have been a LOT cheaper than flying a film crew to Africa!

  Well some have asked, so here they are today.

The big guy was introduced to you in a forum contest, back in May

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1297043
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1302554

As we move into winter up here in the Seattle region, they’ve been given grow-lights
(narrow spectrum) For scale, the big one stands 42 inches (106 cm) tall.

I’ve actually named the two now, but took the name tags off for the photo

What do you call the third one holding the camera?

What do I call that one? That varies from day to day, which derogatory name I
might use...

Maybe “Dad” fits best though, as the young seedlings are named for my son and
daughter
