My store is now open.
This will be considerably smaller than it was in the good old days, but there
are going to be some interesting items within.
Hoping to list some more sets ( mostly used ) in the coming weeks/months

It’s good to be back.

Oh Chick word is gold.

I still remember her "Buy first, think later" - which still puts me in trouble
at the end of the month, but it's another story...

Hi Maxx,
You must have the 2 x 4 bricks from set 5679b I have Aston these for 15 years
( not literally ) because of the colour dispute
So can yo confirm the darker ones are indeed Lilac as it states in the BL set
inventory ?

Still a difficult one, BL doesn’t recognize them as different colors.
Most of us just list them under Medium Violet and put the name and/or color number
with it.
From memory, we have 219 Lilac or Medium Reddish Violet and 112 Medium Bluish
Violet.
So one is more reddish and the other more bluish…

Great colors, glad I finally got those sorted out
If you need help, shoot me a line.

And don’t sit on your bricks

BL has recognized them as different colors since July. 112 is under Medium Violet.
219 is under Lilac. Better edit those listings!
