| This past summer my son set out to create his first LEGO Ideas creation in Studio.
He completed and submitted it in August and after some things settled down with
other LEGO projects, we started ordering parts to build it in November. Overall,
the process has been somewhat time consuming finding the right store combinations
for all the various parts with prices that we were comfortable paying.
We pulled about 60% of them from our store and another handful from Pick-a-Brick.
PAB from Billund arrived right around the 4 weeks they advertise, but our PAB
order of bestsellers out of Illinois was backordered for a month and a half so
we ended up cancelling it. Of course, that allowed us to make a few more purchase
from fellow sellers on bricklink to get the rest of the parts we needed (and
of course a few other things we didn't need).
Right now, we only have one outstanding order that shipped yesterday. In all
I think we had 4 minor issues over the 1446 parts we ordered, and the sellers
were very responsive to handling those issues.
I'd like to give a big thank you to the following stores. Without them we
would have had a much harder time finding all the parts we needed, especially
older or rare parts that my son chose to use.
In no particular order thank you to...

With that said, I often wonder what the parts I'm shipping out will end up
building. Sometimes you can tell if a part is used in only one specific set or
a few parts point to something specific, but often it appears too random to really
know. I mainly wonder about what MOCs they may be going to as the creativity
of LEGO fans is amazing. If anyone is interested in what my son is building,
you can head over to the Ideas site and search for Rockwell Castle Outpost (by
TacodileSupreme24) or follow the link below. Of course, he’s appreciate any
support from the community as well.

Again, thank you to the sellers above as well as all the other sellers and buyers
we've encountered here on bricklink.
