LEGO Guy Bri

Two of the old 7236 Police Cars from '05 for $7.35

Git' it, got it, good! Thanks Bad Cam

Pardon my blunder I had no clue how serious they were when it comes to properly speaking typing about LEGO products

Nice setup dundarach! I love the extended Metroliner, and nice job building the custom table top From the pictures, it looks like the yellow train station is in the location of the "turn table". That yellow engine is from 4564 Freight Rail Runner

I was afraid of this... Only 6 months until I can correct my name

This was a great contest to follow! Wish I would have entered... Anyway a big congratulations to the winners, those are some great prizes! Finally, great job to all those who entered

Wonderful job MacGyver! I love seeing this ship built in Lego

Simple enough indeed. I was under the impression you guys were attaching non-Lego wires to the other parts of the track with all the talk about resistance building through the weaker connection points. I know that was in regards to track pieces, but I assume it goes similar for multiple cable connectors

Does anyone have a diagram on running these extra wires from the controller and any preferred wires/gauge?

A couple more BL orders, and two eBay auctions including, 10200 Custom Car Garage for $25 and a lot of 4641 Speedboat and 30015 Jet Ski for $5

True, but doesn't the staff keep a close eye on that since there were a lot of people joining just to sell? I set a sell thread in there a few months after I joined in 2010, no bites and I'm still afraid to rekindle it! I'll be an outlaw in the real world not here!

First, welcome to EB! Second, that is a lot of Lego to inherit! Without building all of them or having the proper minifigs with the right set, it is VERY important to let bidders know that it is an "incomplete set". You should expect that, like everything else, a non-complete set will fetch less than a "100% complete". Mislabeled auctions tend to really anger collectors... finding new part, ordering other parts to even out shipping cost, extra shipping cost, etc ( a part could be 0.10 EUR, but cost 2.5EUR to ship). It's best to be as honest as you can, to avoid negative feedback. Some sets, like the Taj Mahal, could benefit from a few hours of your time to inventory. As for different parts on a box vs. parts in the set: The previous owner may have switched or mixed them with another set. I know of no instances of a part being on the box and not included with the set. I'm pretty sure that all or most collectors, like myself, are after 100% complete sets or close to complete sets. If the sets are in pieces and you have no way to have a good idea of how complete the set is, it's best to state that. As a big buyer of used sets on eBay, I can get a good idea of how complete a small to medium sized set is, based on a few good, clear, pics of the set and/ or pieces. Instructions should also be noted as included or not. Same goes with the original set box. Parts, it is possible to get replacement parts for the sets. The downside is the condition of the set condition vs. the condition of the piece(s). Lego are UV sensitive and will show that if they were not properly cared for. If certain sets have dull or "yellowed" pieces, mention that, along with the set completion info in the auction description. Another option is to get a scale and weigh out bins, and sell them in lb lots or by set lots (numerous sets; 1 auction). Finally, if this all too much, I make it easy for ya.. 50Eur + ship and I take it off your hands! I kid, but I hope all that helps!

I had a large city layout that comprised mostly 90's to early 2000's sets. After I came back to Lego in '09, I added whatever modern building that would fit quite a few modern vehicles. The newer, open-back buildings didn't look out of place, and the vehicles worked well too, IMO. If you'd like to see classic city/town with a touch of modern, click this! For my new city project, I plan to separate some of the vehicles, like the motorcycles. The classic vs. new don't really look right together. Same will go for certain vehicles (i.e. tow trucks 4W vs. 6W), would not be parked next to each other

Excellent work ER0L, these are beautiful! I'd love to have these in my collection! Keep up the great work

Fantastic city castor-t, I love your modular MOCs There is so much to look at. Can't wait to see future updates

Welcome to the community! It's a great place to just look around, even if you don't care to much for owning Lego itself

Today I have a few orders from BL and a few eBay, BIN, auctions including: 1-3677 Rail Repair Truck, 1-3677 Tipper Car, 1-7939 Flatbed Car w/XL Crate, and 6867 Loki's Cosmic Cube Escape pickup truck

Great cabin cruiser solta! A sleek design and nice color scheme, I really the addition of the wave runner! Keep up the fantastic builds

Won 5958 Mummy's Tomb off the eBay for $9.99. No minifigs, but I really just wanted the car, palm tree, and tan baseplate

Fun little topic, I feel much better about my spending!Mine is worth whatever 2 R2-D2's, 1 Jedi Pilot (Skywalker), 1 Storm Trooper, Jar-Jars head, and some miscellaneous SW parts are worth, so $15< Now ask me what my city collection is, and I'll give you much different number

A pleasant surprise indeed, but exactly why I took the bait The new one just arrived today. I'll check and compare them this weekend

Almost everything I have built is still together and all sets are kept intact. Only a MOC that I don't care for aesthetically, is taken apart and either rebuilt or sorted. If I need parts, Bricklink!

I started keeping every box, including the empty bags and sticker sheets from 2009 on. For some reason, I kept numerous boxes from '96 - '03 (ages 9-15). I just stick them in the attic with no clue for future use
