Does this mean it's bad to use an extra box as its a waste or bad to not use an extra box as the Lego might get crushed? I'm guessing the crushed one?? Always ship in a box, pack well, don't use an oversized box, and assume you are sending to a collector every time. Pristine boxes are preferred, otherwise provide a detailed description of the box condition in your listing. Quote
fossilrock Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 I personally prefer the wrapped in paper method, myself. It always seems to create great conversations with your buyers when they receive it. 2 Quote
edgecrusher Posted November 17, 2015 Posted November 17, 2015 That's some Grade A+ trolling. Always ship in a box. I'd say always ship in a nice looking box, reused is ok but make sure it isn't ratty or crushed. 3 Quote

thoroakenfelder Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 I've been super sick for the past few days, so I haven't had the concentration to do anything. I meant to keep updating, but it's really hard to type anything useful on my kindle Quote

It should have been helpful and it was funny- no one likes to receive anything crushed- the fact that you asked means you have much to learn young grasshopper. Don't worry- the folks on this forum provide lots of good tips and advice. Quote

Now who wants to sell me some stuff? Sound advice. Equivalently, try to ensure your packing is done better than LEGO Shop at Home, K-Mart, and (frequently) Target. 2 Quote

botchy123 Posted November 18, 2015 Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) I always find these peak in the first couple of weeks of December than middle of November Edited November 18, 2015 by botchy123 spelling 2 Quote

Not vast profits, but I picked up mine at ~£15 each, so worth the punt. Quote

Seems like a lot of sellers with poor ratings, and profiles that were just released are still on there. So, i'm not positive the reset has taken place yet. Quote
