Now Who,the cost of one of your apple boxes is $120,not too many people on this forum need that much lego or can afford to pay that price (although the price seems fair for how much fits inside).YOU couldn't sell a box of lego like that at the flea market?I think people would be intrested if you sold individual apple boxes instead.
bring some to the northwest BrickCon,somebody there would buy a bunch.bring some to the next meeting,maybe you'll get some intrest.

Take care, Andrew :wink:

for me to part with them one box at a time is too difficult, the only way for me to do it in one shot.

get together as a group , and buy the lot.

p.s. its not everything i have , just most of bulk boxes of unsorted stuff.

$24.000.00

Who taught you to write like that? It bothered me enough that I looked up Decimal Separator on Wikipedia. It turns out that your usage is wrong, which bothers me because I do not like to pick up bad habits, nor do I like to see other people pick up bad habits. The correct way to write that figure is $24,000.00.

Anyways good luck on selling your LEGO. Personally I think you'll be lucky to get a $100/box selling them all individually.

While you are correct about english, oother languages use the . and , differently in relation to currency.

Unsorted boxes for $120 each is stricky. I know I would pay it if I knew what was in the box and liked the ontent, but random used bricks cause be quite disapointing, or amazing. Hard to think of what I would pay for them. I can say for sure that I wouldn't be able to buy the whole lot, and I likely wouldn't want to go into a super complicated deal with 20+ other buyers.

I think you may need to bite the bullet and sell them a box at a time. Or open a bricklink store and make a lot more money selling it, with a lot more time.

So you sold your collection, or it is off the market?

Either way, hope you are able to get your business going good.
