Can I sell boxes of Lego?

[MozzchopsThirty]

I have mountains of it and the dcs are done with it
I have a lot of instruction books but probs not all
And 2 Lego boxes like pic below?

Should I try and sell as a job lot?
I have 4 boxes (containers) altogether?

Do your research - it is highly collectable so don't sell it cheap.

And bear in mind that if you stick it in the loft it will be worth one heck of a lot more in several decades' time.

Music magpie will take it.

Can sell mixed boxes as per weight. Ka-ching! $$

check out eBay. job lots of Lego sell well.

Some sets can be worth more sold complete.
The only sets that truly increase in value are collectable, complete rarer sets.
If it's just a load of Lego city type stuff selling by weight is easiest.

If you're selling retired sets which are complete with instructions then you can sell them for quite a lot.

If you just have loads of random pieces then sell it by the kilo.

No pic attached - I may be interested for DSS

It's all random which is a shame because the millennium falcon is on there somewhere

But if you have the books you can make the sets up again. Like the Falcon and the AtAt.

Isn't the falcon really expensive? I'd definitely try to get the pieces together and sell as a set.

If you don't want to put it together I would put it on eBay. Mention you have booklets and boxes and maybe have a higher starting prices or reserve.

Lots of people buy these sorts of "collections" make them up and sell them on

Not all of the millennium falcon sets valuable. Only the collector ones.
The more child friendly versions may hold some value and will sell for more as a set than a box of random parts.

Yes. I sold what I had on gumtree for a couple of £100. I did have all the original boxes and manuals though.

@MozzchopsThirty it might be too late and you've already listed it but if you know you have Star Wars Lego sets then I'd consider trying to make the sets back up and sell them as complete sets. It took me a couple of days but I sorted out 20 sets of DS's SW lego before Christmas and sold them for £550 in total. Most of the sets were discontinued and many sold for more than their original cost. I listed another 4 sets last night and hoping to make another £150+.

There is a website where you can order spare lego parts if you are missing bits.

Brickowl or bricklink for spare pieces.

Selling as sets can be really lucrative for older sets, I sold one a couple of years ago for £150

It is however a mine field, and I became embroiled in a dispute with a woman who purchased a set from me which she claimed was on brick missing. I had checked all the sets personally and was sure there wasn't one missing, but apologised with good grace and offered to send her a replacement (it was a small white brick with two knobbles, hardly a rarity)

She went berserk, claimed the brick would not be "of the same vintage", that I was a dishonest seller, that I had deliberately set out to rip her off etc. While I gathered my thoughts and decided how best to approach the situation, she gave me glowing feedback and never mentioned it again- to this day I remain as baffled as I was back then!
