You have done pretty well this month so far,

But for today, you are at Zero, and there ain't much time left in the day.

So, I will guess 16

Here are your upload stats:

that's an evil tactic to increase traffic, since we need to check current
total before betting.

666 lots is your number evil-boy.

no coupon thx. i'm here for laughs.

Yep, it surprised me too, I guessed at over £100 not £200.

I’ll have to sell mine there too as I can’t sell it here.

There are a few of us that collect both.

I saw it but didn't bid. I just had another look, it went for over £200.

I have like 10k lots in stockroom lol. I moved last year and closed my entire
store and have been adding it back slowly. I prefer adding new parts (new as
in new to me) into my store so I've been a little distracted with purchasing
stuff and listing that

Me thinks 5,638 lots
Please relist your entire store (I hear it attracts sales)

Or 19,689 lots if you relist it 1 item per lot

I would recommend playing around with the positioning of your desk lamp, and
also maybe taping a piece of white printer paper over the light as it will soften/diffuse
it

To get professional lighting, most of the time you'll need 3 light sources,
but if you play around with your desk lamp & position it correctly you can get
away with using just that + maybe turning on your ceiling light or open your
window for a 2nd light source

As for buying a light box, you could if you wanted to, but you can also get away
with using an old bedsheet or poster board (as long as they're one solid
colour) for a more budget-friendly option, and then putting money towards another
lamp or something like that to improve lighting

  Good day!

I want to share pics online of some of my LEGO builds, just for fun. I've
only got my phone to take pics. Any tips to get best results?

The little rooms in LEGO buildings are dark inside without extra light shined
in them. My desk lamp aimed at it makes too much glare off the shiny plastic
and shadows. Would it help to buy one of those white boxes people sell online
for taking pics for people to create sale photos of bric-a-brac?

I bought a small LED light that is adjustable and use it to illuminate as needed.
The adjustable part really helps. You can also diffuse the light if needed with
tissue.
