| Ben’s Brickstore is Celebrating 5 Years on Bricklink!
***See our Facebook Page for a better version of this announcement, with photos! You can find our Facebook page by searching for Ben's Brickstore either within Facebook or on Google.***
Monday, Jan 29th, marks our 5th anniversary of selling LEGO on Bricklink! We are also quickly approaching our 5,000th Bricklink order!
We opened our Bricklink store on 1/29/2019. Our first order came in on February 4th, kicking off what has become quite a journey! When we first opened, we probably only had a few thousand parts listed for sale, along with some used sets. We closed out our first year with around 50,000 items in stock. Our revenue that year was around what our store currently earns in about 2 weeks.
To celebrate our 5 year Bricklink anniversary, we’re offering the following promotion when you place a Bricklink order between now and when we reach our 5,005th order:
Mention “Anniversary Promo” in the BRICKLINK order comments to be eligible.
• Spend $20 (item sub-total), get a FREE “blind box” from Marvel Series 2 Collectible Minifigures (71039). This box contains a random 1 of 12 characters to collect.
• Spend $100 (item sub-total), and you’ll be entered into a drawing to win a FREE Forest Hideout (40567). This set was only available as a gift with purchase (GWP) from LEGO in 2022, and is a reproduction of 6054 Forestmen’s Hideout from 1988. Forestmen (and Castle) is Erik’s all-time favorite theme.
• Spend $200 (item sub-total), and you’ll be entered into a drawing to win a FREE Forest Hideout (40567) AND Majisto’s Magical Workshop (40601). This was another reproduction, which was available as a GWP in 2023, and is based off 6048 Majisto’s Magical Workshop from 1993, part of the Dragon Knights subtheme of Castle.
• If we reach order #5,000 by Valentine’s Day (2/14), we are also going to have a drawing for a copy of 10328 Bouquet of Roses!
• Our 5,000th BRICKLINK customer will receive a free gift with their purchase. Gift will be of our choosing and will be of relative value to the size of the order. We will try to choose something that we think the buyer will like based on what they ordered, but it will be a surprise. 😊
o This will be for the 5,000th customer regardless of whether they mention anything in the order comments or were aware of the promo.
We are currently at 4,892 orders on Bricklink, so we are only 108 orders away from 5,000! Your odds of winning one of the drawings are very good! Don’t forget to mention “Anniversary Promo” in the Bricklink Order Comments! Visit store.bricklink.com/BensBrickstore to place your order.
Thank-you,
Erik H

| Good Morning,
We have been adding parts to the store rapidly, and now have over 611k items in stock (10,600 lots)! There are a ton more sets to be processed very soon. 750k is around the corner! After getting through the sets to part out, we have about 500lbs of used bulk to dive into.
Also, we are running a sale on some items, to help clear out older stock. Select parts are 10-30% off, minifigs 10% off, and instructions up to 50-75% off (these are almost always on sale)!
Lastly, we will be closing the store from Aug 20-26, for a much needed week off. While the store is closed, there will be a bypass password, you can still place an order, but these orders will not be shipped until Mon 8/29 at the EARLIEST.
So, please check out the store and get your orders in in the next week and a half if you can! If you've ordered previously, and have marked the order complete/left feedback, and I still owe you a coupon, drop me a message. 😎

| Hi,
I just noticed that there is an error with the item #'s for these two minifigs.
Petunia Pig is mixed up with Porky Pig.
Petunia Pig CMF set is collt-11 but minifig is collt12; Porky Pig set is collt-12
but minifig is collt11...
