Plumber Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago There seem to be an increasing number of sites selling Gobricks but I seem to find that none of them offer a complete range. The bricks are not any generally any cheaper than sensible Bricklink/Owl prices but the attraction is the possibility of sourcing larger quantities of lots with only one shipping charge. eg I just purchased a wanted list of 4000ish bricks in 130 lots the best BL could do for me was 35 stores where the shipping was more than bricks :-( Can anyone recommend which sites have the most comprehensive selection or whether some sites specialise in non-lego brick designs?

JesseNight Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago It depends a lot on what parts you need. Basic parts in bulk can be found from a lot of places, so far I have no personal experience to recommend any specific sellers. If I need more specific parts, especially when needing them in a wider color variety than LEGO offers, I usually go to https://www.brickwith.com/en Quote

They also have a "Wanted List" upload tool similar to Bricklink. Edited 4 hours ago by Sven J Quote
Plumber Posted 4 hours ago Author Posted 4 hours ago (edited) Yes - That's one of the sites I have looked at. The parts I'm after are not special or rare in general, I know those will often need specific orders but for instance: 5091/5092, often difficult to find both hands in quantity on BL/BO, available from Brickwith.com and Mygobricks.com but not Gobricks.net or Buymybricks.com There are examples that work the other way round - its frustrating! Good to know BW is the official site, maybe that's the first one to try in future. Edited 4 hours ago by Plumber answer crossing post Quote

Brickwith states they only offer parts that are instantly available. So possibly when an item is missing, it is sold out and will be re-stocked in the future. Quote
Plumber Posted 3 hours ago Author Posted 3 hours ago I have looked at over twenty sites that advertise as Gobricks outlets and all were unable to complete my recent list, I guess sites list bricks they expect to sell the most, not that surprising! Some sites would not find parts from BL number but would display if using GDS number (harvested from AE) others sold the parts but with differing colour availabilities. I can find almost anything on AE but Gobricks sellers don't seem to participate in any of the capped shipping schemes so if after more than one or two brick types shipping gets silly again. 12 minutes ago, Sven J said: Well, gobricks.net looks a bit... well.. obscure to me... I thought it looked far more 'legitimate' than Brickwith with GB branding etc. obviously wrong I kinda hoped someone would point at a site and say 'these guys keep everything'. Not to be by sound of it! I'll make Brickwith my first port of call in future and do my research on a case by case basis for parts they don't carry, not so different from BL I guess. 22 minutes ago, Classicsmiley said: Make sure to check out their current coupon codes (good through August 26, 2026): I'll make sure to check this out Quote
Sven J Posted 3 hours ago Posted 3 hours ago 2 minutes ago, Plumber said: I thought it looked far more 'legitimate' than Brickwith with GB branding etc Yeah, but no company info or address, no "About Us", nothing... I ordered from Webrick, the prececessor of Brickwith, several times, and it went absolutely smoothly. But I don't know how they organise shipping to the UK. Maybe you'll have to pay duties or import fees. For EU customers, they apparently had a system to import container-wise and then pack and ship individual orders on EU territory to avoid fees for consumers. At least all of my orders came from a shipping address in the Netherlands... Quote
Plumber Posted 3 hours ago Author Posted 3 hours ago I just received an order through BuymyBricks, went very smoothly and they even added to the order after submission and payment, no customs issues and pretty sure shipped from China. they would seem to be a French based wholesaler, the pricing was excellent but the range is definitely more limited than many. 12 minutes ago, Sven J said: Yeah, but no company info or address, no "About Us", nothing... Just goes to show how much more clued up you are than me that said, not sure how much use an address in China would be in the event of a dispute I've never had an issue with any Chinese purchase unlike some UK organisations I could name!!!
