Anyone know if there are collectors out there for Jouef construction sets, I
need to clear out everything I’ve accumulated.

Looks like eBay but thought I’d check here too.

I am not sure that you can advertise non-LEGO brands on BrickLink. 🫤

Doubt anyone here will be interested.

Thought I could order from BL shop and arrange to cover payment of both the invoice
and BL fees with seller using these items, BL gets its fees that way.

They mark invoice as paid.

BL gets its fees, seller gets these instead of cash and their fees paid, obviously
U.K. only, no vat or other tax comes into play.

However, chances of a sale are highly unlikely.

I know Jouef since I was a kid, dreaming their famous model trains here.
Here's a recent (old) one:

I didn't know they tried the plastic bricks also.

This French brand seems to have been acquiered in 1981 then later on by Hobbies
Hornby in 2004, Kent, UK.

I was surprised when I found them ( large collection ) as I knew about the trains
and associated items but had never seen or heard of construction sets.

I’d like to say yes but I’d be auditioning to be a politician if I did.

It’s a weird feeling knowing that you are on borrowed time and I really don’t
know how I should be acting.

Unfortunately my family know nothing about Lego or other brands and I have a
lot of stuff to sell, can’t let it all disappear, many things need to go to collectors/Lego
or Kiddicraft historians.

Thanks for your concern.

I should have some boxes of those somewhere too. Are they all regular bricks
or do you have any windows, doors and wheels?

I have all sorts, need to find the storage box to be sure exactly what I have,
should be windows, doors, wheels and more.

I’ll check for them this week.

No interest so have to find out how to sell on another site.

Cheers for looking.

Yes, I think you would sell them on eBay.
