Before you come in…
Please send us a digital list or spreadsheet if you have more than 5 sets or 15 minifigures. Do NOT send a hand-written list via a photograph or photos of any kind (unless asked). Please include in the spreadsheet the quantity, set number, condition of the items (new, built, missing figures / parts) along with what you’re looking to get for the entire lot. Please note that any licensed set (Indiana Jones, Star Wars, etc) brought in without corresponding minifigures will be considered as bulk.
Bulk pricing is based on the quantity (volume), quality (cleanliness & damaged parts), percentage of non-LEGO® elements, and the needs of the store. We will typically purchase loose minifigure parts at $.18-.25 per piece (roughly $.75-1.00 per fig) for any standard minifigs. Friend’s figures (mini-dolls) will typically be around 1/2 as much. Friends sets and minifigures are our slowest moving product, therefore we pay the least for these. Licensed sets such as Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Marvel, Scooby-Doo and others will typicall fetch more as they are typically sought after.
Please keep in mind that if you do not send us a spreadsheet ahead of time and get a response from our management team, we may ask you to come back another day, due to lack of being able to process your trade on the spot. **NOTE** We as a company cannot take any new-in-box products currently available from LEGO.com without a receipt of purchase.
