I went to Bricks & Minifigs to sell a StarWars set
I went to Bricks & Minifigs to sell a vintage LEGO Star Wars set from the 1990s. Before completing the transaction, I was told they would pay me the full amount that was quoted to me. I agreed to sell the set based on that amount. Instead, when the transaction was completed, I was paid only 10% of the amount I had been told I would receive. That's not a minor difference or a negotiation over the value of a used LEGO set. That's a 90% reduction from the amount I was told I would be paid. I immediately objected and wanted my Star Wars set back, but they refused to return it. At that point I was extremely frustrated because I had agreed to the transaction based on the original amount I was quoted. Had I been told beforehand that I was only going to receive 10% of that amount, I obviously would not have agreed to sell it. I completely understand that Bricks & Minifigs is a resale business and needs to buy LEGO below market value to make a profit. That's not what I'm complaining about. The issue is being told one amount, agreeing to sell based on that amount, receiving only 10% of it, and then being refused when I asked to undo the transaction. If you're selling valuable or vintage LEGO, know exactly what you're agreeing to before handing over your set. Get the offer clearly confirmed and make sure the amount you're actually being paid matches the amount you were quoted. Based on this experience, I would not trust Bricks & Minifigs with another valuable LEGO set, and I would strongly recommend that other sellers be extremely careful.
