Lego bricks

Hi

How does one buy Lego bricks? Not sets (got a million sets) but just quantities of standard blocks for building.

The creative sets seem to have lots of extras - doors, little bits etc - which we don't need. We just need a load of 2 x 4, 2 x 8 type bricks.

Thanks @Caspianberg but those sets still have loads of flat pieces and small items - with relatively few classic bricks for building. It feels a waste when we don't need the small stuff - just the chunkier blocks.

You can pick a brink on the lego site though I suspect that's an expensive solution

People sell on eBay by weight, might be worth looking at

Thanks @LovelyBitOfSquirrrel That one looks good. My DSs are keen on black (and very very dark grey...) so might need two of that set.

I'll investigate ebay too.

Yes you need 11030, it's gives you a massive pile of decent bricks. Currently on a special offer on Costco in case you're a member.
