| | How to search for parts of a specific color, with a sticker attached on them?
|
“Orange 3001* sticker*” would find all orange 3001 parts that have a sticker
or stickers but brickognize is usually the fastest option
|
Could you make a tutorial on your channel some time on how to use brickognize?
I can’t seem to figure it out.
|
Step 1 go to website. Step 2 upload/take picture. Step 3 see results.

It can be quite complex...
And the Lord spake, saying, "First shalt thou
Take out the Holy Pin then
Shalt thou count to three no more no less
Three shalt be the number thou shalt count
And the number of
The counting shall be three four
Shalt thou not count
Nor either count thou two
Excepting that thou then proceed to
Three five is right out
Once the number three, being the third
Number, be reached, then
Lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of
Antioch towards thy foe, who, being
Naughty in My sight, shall snuff it"

Well crap I'm old enough to get this reference. Just bought it on VHS lol

Agreed, looks like someone made a "lampshade" with a light in it.

have you checked out vintage gi joe figures...
pricing on those went insane too
|
Omg YES
My fav story is I was throwing away these little toys I got in an old lot of
LEGO, that were not LEGO
Then I found a MOTU (He Man) staff I recognized as being worth some $ so I decided
to check the other misc toys and low and behold the little guns I had been chucking
were G.I. Joe and I ended up dumping out my garbage to retrieve them and I got
something like $10-25 a piece (there were very old) I have no doubt the 90's
G.I. Joe stuff is also getting stupid, I bid on a few lots recently and could
never win them.
I flip vintage toys in general, so I'm always watching the market on various
stuff. I don't get to flip many "male" toys because they are nearly
impossible to get in bulk, too much competition. I do occasionally find some
MOTU and Transformers by just having an eye that recognizes it in unrelated lots.
I sell alot of FP and MLP and you can watch the popularity spike right around
20 years for self collecting, and 25 years for "I want my kids to play with
this too". Bionicle is in the self collection stage. lol

| Not knowing which set it is exactly, but just generally speaking 1960's and
70's basic type sets are honestly not terribly valuable. There are some collectors,
as there is for eveything that exists, but not a lot of them in contrast to how
many sets still exist. Boxes and paperwork can be a little more valuable, but
again, there isn't a huge demand for sets of that era. You should post pics

Right, which isn't a big deal on 80s and 90s parts.

They should have exchanged them for current stamps which Royal Mail will only

This kinda makes sense if its 2 packages with the same tracking. Which is what
I suspect here. Either way that's hilarious.
I've had something flop around in Los Angeles once for far too long before
going overseas. It would say departed only to get scanned in L.A. again.
I thought parcels backtracking through Memphis all the time was bad. The second
I get a message about shipping, I know Memphis is involved.

| | Hello,
Can someone help me learn how to find the inner plain cardboard box for an original
Lego box? For example, in 2002 some sets had a plain inner box that was inside
of the colorful "regular" box.
I am assuming that there were a set of standard sizes that were used by multiple
different sets and that should make finding the inner box easier than finding
the outer box for some sets... but I am having trouble finding "inner box"
listings on BL or anywhere else.
Thanks!
|
I've listed innners and plastic trays a number of times over the years. I
just list them under the original listing for the box.
Best bet is to find sellers that specialize in boxes (theres like, 5 of us, lol)
and follow their listings, have email notifications on for boxes you want etc.
Boxes can sometimes take years if not decades to locate. I know my personal collection
certainly did

And if it is lost, I am on the hook for it.
However, I had a customer reach out to tell me they didn't receive the package,
even though USPS shows it was delivered in the mailbox a few days ago.
Is it still my responsibility for the package once it has been delivered?
Any advice is appreciated.

Nope, not your problem. If it was, every scammer on the planet would claim this.
I've been having carriers mark things as delivered and then delivering them
days later (guess because of time quotas??) UPS is worse but my postal carrier
does it too when shes swamped. It may still show up.
