Due to the overwhelming interest in this sale I WILL be having, I need to rethink
my approach.

I noticed that certain people will be filling up there cart to buy everything
as soon as the sale starts.
Should I make a lot limit? I think maybe more that 1 user would like this deal.

I have a limited number of bags and packages to go around so some things may
be just dumped into a big bag.
Are you ok with that?

Should I ship to the states? It’s very expensive and a big hassle as well.

Opinions and experience on the matter would be appreciated.

Thank you, I had no idea so many people would do anything for a good sale.

So the sale is real? I thought it was just a joke.


What’s the date and time you’re going to hold this sale?

Blame the moderator!

Sale is still on though.
Should I make a lot limit of 90 lots so someone can’t hoard the whole store?

If you notice the message was cancelled, and the discussion moderator moved it
to off topic.

The second thread contains the updated sale times, and the new conditions.

Well, with only 751 lots for sale, someone could circumvent the limit by simply
placing nine separate orders.

In all seriousness, I don't think you have much to worry about. With an inventory
as small as yours, you may find it hard to attract buyers even with rock bottom
prices. Unless, of course, you have a lot of hard-to-find items for sale.

Trust me, my inventory used to consist of a small collection of used parts and
I still didn't receive many orders despite listing many items for a literal
penny.

I ended up giving away the last of it for free: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1273149

Perhaps the market has changed since the pandemic, but as a wise Nubs once said,
if you want to make more sales, then you need to add more inventory.

True but that would be their choice.

I’m not trying to live off my profits so slow sales are ok.

I wish I could I would love to have a big store, but my space is limited, and
my money trees haven’t started growing yet.

The Great Lakes are too cold for money trees. They're a tropical plant, native
to Central and South America. Mine loved being without air conditioning in the
hot humid summers of New York City.

No, I don’t think that is the problem. I think the seeds where bad.

Gotcha. I bought mine from the plant store, so I can't comment on growing
them from seed.

Being a chicken, did you try some seed?

Probably… but I’m still a bit confused. Are the second and third sales really
going to happen?


Yes they are happening. I want to clear my inventory so I can buy some sets to
part out. I kinda out of room.

  Sorry if I sound rude at all. I just wanted to ask because these sales seem too
good to be true. And as the old saying goes:
“What seems too good to be true probably is.”

Well not this time.

Probably… but I’m still a bit confused. Are the second and third sales really
going to happen?


Yes they are happening. I want to clear my inventory so I can buy some sets to
part out. I kinda out of room.

  Sorry if I sound rude at all. I just wanted to ask because these sales seem too
good to be true. And as the old saying goes:
“What seems too good to be true probably is.”

Well not this time.

Cool! Yeah, I can relate to the everlasting "No space" problem.

a not fun problem.

He claims he's not trying to live off of his profits, just trying to clear
out some room: https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1458231

So, I think it's legit. He already has the Friends mini dolls at 95% off:

And it looks like you left them their 100th feedback! It's an Earth-shattering
coincidence!

Or maybe Arkansas-shattering, depending upon your perspective.

Thunder Bay is on Eastern Time, same as BrickLink.

I do find it kind of weird since Thunder Bay is actually a little bit west of
Chicago, which is on Central Time. If time zones were mathematically determined,
Detroit would be on Central Time.

Yeah, I find that a lot of newer websites actually run kinda slow due to all
the extra code they run in the background and whatnot.

Or maybe it's just my computer that's slow.

BrickLink, when it's working, actually runs quite smoothly for me.

Where I live the internet stinks so a site like this is fantastic!
Lego.com can take up to 3 minutes for the home page to load, on my computer.

My internet just went down just as the 50% off sale ended, was barely able to
end the sale with cellar data.

That was close, router is on the outs so orders may take longer to process.

Sale is STILL ON.
