Tips for Selling to Bricks and Minifigs – Glen Carbon

We buy LEGO! Here are some tips, tricks, and rules to help you get the best value for your trade or sale:

Tips & Tricks:

  • Keep those sets built! Make sure your sets are as complete as possible.  If a set has Minifigs, keep the Minifigs with it and keep them assembled. If you have the instructions, keep those with the set, too. The more we can see it’s complete, the more we can offer. 
  • The cleaner the LEGO, the higher the offer.
  • We understand – not everyone has the time to put sets back together. We don’t, either! If you bring in a box or bag of pieces, it will be purchased as bulk. We can’t take a customer’s word that a set is complete. If it isn’t built, it’s bulk.
  •  When we go through bulk, the factors that affect pricing include: cleanliness (pet hair, sticky stuff); non-LEGO content (other toys, other building block brands); and general volume.
  • Just selling Minifigs? We love LEGO Minifigs! Make sure your Minifigs are as complete as possible and assembled. 
  • We reserve the right to choose what we wish to consider for purchase. Non-traditional LEGO items such as posters, games, storage, or displays will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Rules:

  • We will not purchase New-in-Box that is still in production (active on LEGO.com).
  • Our price is quoted at the time of evaluation. If you leave with your LEGO and come back later, we will repeat the whole evaluation process. Our prices are based on current market value, which can fluctuate daily.
  •  We do not haggle. We do our best to give the best market pricing we can. You are under no pressure to accept our offer.
  • We do not buy empty boxes; instruction manuals without the sets; used plush toys, clothing, or other textile/fabric items.
  • Just like you are under no obligation to purchase from us, we are under no obligation to purchase from you. We reserve the right to turn down merchandise.
  • All sellers must be 18 or over. A valid photo ID is required at the time of sale or trade.

Schedule an Appointment:

  • We recommend scheduling an appointment online so we can better serve you and give the proper time to evaluate your LEGO collection.
  • Expect to spend 5-10 minutes at the buy counter per set, Minifig, and/or bulk container you are selling. Having sets and Minifigs assembled, and having instructions with the sets, will help expedite the identification and evaluation processes.
  • Walk-ins are accepted but could be delayed based on staff availability, scheduled appointments, and others waiting to sell or trade. Walk-ins are seen on a first-come, first-served basis, and we do not make exceptions to this rule, no matter how great a potential seller’s LEGO collection is.
