  Would like to sell 7094 lego castle siege for $600 Sgd (can nego abit). Lego
is 100% authentic and brand new. Box condition is 7/10, there are dents on the
corners and one small crease.

Hi,
In order to sell your Lego set here on Bricklink you will need to open a store.
In order to open a store, you will first need to make a purchase to get 1 feedback.
Once you have 1 feedback, you can apply to open a store. This takes about 3 weeks
due to backlog.

You would be better off selling it on a different marketplace unless you have
other Lego you wish to sell as well.

I wish you well,

Cass T

An item should be at least 100 years old to be defined as an antique. Generally
speaking if the item is no older than an antique but not less than 20 years,
it falls under the term vintage

Although it can vary due to the type of product and how long that product has
been around. There is no LEGO over 100 years, so there cannot be antique LEGO
if you use 100 years as the definition. But some people do describe it that way.

For something that has been around for a relatively short period of time, then
it is understandable when people use other meanings based on that shorter timescale.
Personally, anything LEGO pre-2000 is vintage, and I can understand anything
pre-about 1970 being called antique (so the 50's town plan and 60's basic
sets, etc and definitely if before 1960 (so all those small simple 1950s sets).

However, it wouldn't surprise me if the term vintage now also gets applied
to things like the original Indiana Jones sets and even the 2012/13/14 LOTR sets,
to distinguish them from the new revivals of those themes.

As with everything, not just LEGO, it is important to know what you are buying
and not just rely on a term a seller might use to try to sell something. Not
just with terms like antique, vintage, retro, classic but also rare.
