Stickers, electronic components and cloth can also be damaged by water. You might
also have mold on the instructions and/or inside of the box. Lastly, there could
be bugs that were attracted by the water and died in there.
I would open the box up and see what you're dealing with. If I were looking
for a New In Box set I wouldn't buy one with water damage unless the price
reflected it. You could always list it as New, Complete instead of New, Sealed:

Since the boxes have water damage and that can mess up instructions like you
mentioned I’d recommend opening them and selling them as open box as otherwise
you might end up selling someone some badly damaged instructions and it would
make things complicated

Hi and welcome to Bricklink! You can't sell on here without first making
a purchase and receiving positive feedback from the buyer. I always try to leave

| Hi,
Sorry but:
You can’t advertise items that are not for sale in a store.
You need to open a store.
And, yes, you need some feedback first and that means buying something.
These are the rules.

| | HI there I'm thinking selling on this website. I wanted to ask a few questions
about it however.
#1 I have "Complete" sets, but there're original bricks are scattered
in my LEGO box. is it right/uncouth to sell something as "complete" if
I put the sets back together again from my vast lego box?
|
Yes you can list this as "Used, Complete" if the instructions are
missing you must state this in the description
| |
#2 Is a mini figure still "new" if it has been gently taken care of in
a box of other minis, and never been played with and still shinny and unscratched?
|
Must be listed as "Used"

Thank you all! 
|
okay then another question, what started me on this was when I found my 20th
anniversary Lando figure still in great shape, and upon looking at the going
rate for him amounting at 45-50 dollars for him complete with stand, I was blown
away!  so is he worth more with or without his set?
|
The figure alone sold 81 times the last 6 months while the set only sold 18 times
both in used condition
|
If you have the set I would sell it with him to make it complete
|
ok thanks!

I think it’s ok so long as the colours are the same and the variants are the

No, if you sell those as new you will be in trouble. You can only sell figs as
new if they are straight from the bag or assembled and put STRAIGHT into storage.

so long as what you have matches the bricklink invenoty there is nothing wrong
with selling a used set even if you parted it together from a big box

you can only sell minifigres as new if they are handled only for sorting and
selling purposes. if you used them for any other purposes including display then
they are no longer new
