I heard about it few years ago too.
But these bricks are of all conditions. Some yellowed some dented....
Sorting them based on the condition is one problem.
Then I add condition like "second codnition" or "filler" or "little yellowed"...
and buyer not reading them and then leaving me neutral or negative or wanting
a refund is another problem. I don't think it is worth the effort.

If you list them on BL, just say "Assume the worst, but you might be surprised"

| It still doesn’t help if the buyer doesn’t read the description. I have been
this buyer many a time after using the Wanted List Buy page on about a thousand
lots that I didn’t check individually. In these cases, I haven’t complained because
the condition was written, but I’ve learned from the forum that not every buyer
is that considerate.

| I agree, unless you want to do retail work with them, you’re better off on a
more general selling platform where you won’t have to count them.

| In a similar situation but, we have 50 lbs of black 2x4 3001 bricks. 50/50 condition.
We've decided to just sort through them on our own time and list on BL. Haven't
personally had a problem before selling "filler"

| Had the same problem. Listed on eBay and they sold. Here are the titles to 2
of the sold listings:
LEGO 2 lbs Pounds 2x4 White Bricks Brick Lot discolored scratched weathered
LEGO 2 lbs Pounds White Bricks 1x2 2x2 2x4 Brick Lot discolored scratched
They sell faster if the lot is all one color and one size.

| I know you're kidding, but I would say in the listing that the pieces have
been cleaned and are not dirty.
Each lot sold for $20 plus shipping. I was very surprised, the same guy bought
both lots even though they were listed months apart. So, there are people look
for these types of bricks.

| I know myself I use a lot of the 2x3 bricks and the 2x2 bricks for building my
mils plates. Color doesn't matter to me as they are hidden, as long as they
aren't broke even a little wear doesn't matter again cause they will
be hidden

For large amounts, local sales through Facebook marketplace or Craigslist type
sites might be better. It depends on the area. If you avoid shipping 20kg parcels
then you avoid paying for shipping, so might get more of what the buyer pays
you. If there are enough local buyers.
