Speak to Lego. They might knock off a couple of percent. But then again, maybe
not.

Maybe you can list one set per month with a 6.000.000,00 GBP price?

If you took every single part listed on BrickLink, parted out every set and minifigure
currently for sale - there might be enough to last 2 months of 1 million lbs.
per month.

We need to find out the what part has the least weight, most likely a very small
sticker sheet. And calculate how many you would need each month to meet the demand.

This is the way.

Sure, I can help, follow these steps:

1. Place an order for about 1 lb of LEGO and pay for it.

2. Repeat about six million times.

If you work 12 hour days, you will have to place and pay for approx 5 orders
per second.

Oh, I did see somewhere that there were enough Lego produced and laid end to

I doubt anyone believes this to be a real request. I was continuing the absurdness
of the request by indicating that I could supply the LEGO, however, only if he
has the ability to receive the shipments.

I have the ability to receive the shipment, but I do not have the cash on hand
to pay. Will you ship to me on consignment or 90 day terms?

You better have something Cthulhu wants in exchange if you want to live long
enough to actually acquire enough space and enough time to handle all that LEGO!

Six million pounds of LEGO would take up quite a lot of space, where would you
even put it?

It is a back of an envelope calculation, but this works out at handling about
450 2x4 bricks every second if working 24/7.

Would you accept 206,896 UCS Millennium Falcons (75192) per month? That's
approximately the weight you requested.

That will be $304,134,223/mo. (including a 40% markup) and free shipping over
$100.
