CelesAurivern Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 I find out about BrickPicker by searching for "lego brick forum" today. Not related, but why is Taiwan considered a province of China? I'm pretty sure it's an independant state. Quote
binici Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 I believe my buddy linked me to this website. This was when I was interested in potentially investing and collection and now, I'm $3k deep in LEGOS! Quote
Jackson Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 It was a dark and stormy night. The Internet glowed before me. I ventured upon a place called Google. My fingers clacked against the keyboard: L-E-***-O. Brickpicker sprang forth! Quote
rapupunk Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Last week i was searching for Lego Taj Mahal, and i found that set is very expensive compare to it's RPP. Then i knew many people investing in Lego. Searched about Lego Investment on Google, voila! i came to this site. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 I happened to notice LEGO prices on eBay when looking for something unrelated. I then googled "Lego Investing" and.... here I am! Quote
humandroid Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I just found BP through another link that I can't remember right now! I was trying to find out what certain sets in my collection were worth, and this eventually came up! 1 Quote
Diabolos80 Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I just found BP through another link that I can't remember right now! I was trying to find out what certain sets in my collection were worth, and this eventually came up! Cool name. Welcome to the forum. Dude the first thing you should do is complete your brickfolio. Bam! Total market value of your collection. And you get really neato ratios and pie graphs. Odds are if you love Lego, then you love pie graphs B) Quote
never2old4lego Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I don't remember exactly, but I believe, like others, I did a search on Lego investing and found BP. And, ever since, I've slowly been filling up my basement with new sets! LOL Quote
parkerch Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I found this site by search under the keyword "brick + forum". Quote
Diabolos80 Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I probably googled "why the hell does an Imperial Flagship cost $360 on ebay?" Viola. Quote
DoNotInsertIntoMouth Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I probably googled "why the hell does an Imperial Flagship cost $360 on ebay?" Viola. First google answer: @#% damn resellers. Quote
Diabolos80 Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I freaking spelled voila wrong. I blame resellers. Quote
Guest eightbrick Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I freaking spelled voila wrong. I blame resellers. Darned resellers are buying up all the dictionaries. Can't even find one for the children that doesnt cost a darned 20 dollars... Quote
TheOrcKing Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Darned resellers are buying up all the dictionaries. Can't even find one for the children that doesnt cost a darned 20 dollars...That's why it helps to keep a pocket dictionary. :thumbsup: Quote
viper1 Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 My brother was talking about investing in Lego. I googled Lego investing and I found this site. For awhile I was keeping a similar list of all my Lego sets but haven't done it in years. After a few hours I am hooked on this site. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 I freaking spelled voila wrong. I blame resellers. If we have a viola player or horticulturalist among us, the spelling is correct. Well, there you are (or voila in French). Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted November 29, 2013 Posted November 29, 2013 I googled "How to rip off naive buyers who left it too late to buy at RRP when hey had the chance" and the rest is history. Quote
Ciglione Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 I found this site through the brickshow. I have read the article of USA today but was not convinced. What convinced me was a friend of mine telling me about the carroussel and the Taj Mahal and how expensive they became now. One section in the USA Today article worries me. That is when random people tell you to go invest in Lego. It is happening more and more lately. Quote
Rootfish Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 I found out about this site a couple of weeks ago from Brickipedia, when I was trying to identify a minifig that came with my Creationary game. Quote
morganlego Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 i'm get brickpicker forum, from facebook grup...happy join this forum Quote
mightycaseyatbat Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I found the site whilst searching for apps. I was wanting to find an app that I could keep track of minifig like a portfolio. While I didn't really find what I was looking for, I did like this portfolio keeper and the stats than any other site. Then I began to read some blog posts and I was hooked. Great site! Quote
legopocalypse Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 USA Today article for me as well in Dec. 2012 Quote
Migration Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I had been pulling sets out of bulk lots and flipping them for a couple years when I ran across some sealed sets and was trying to figure out when/if they would retire, enter Google and there you go. This was Julyish 2013. I lurked a bit before I joined. Quote
