purchased the five pack of mystery custom clones and saw that some of them don't even come with helmets simply "helmets" printed on the mini-figure heads and figured if i order five i'll at least get one good one out of the DOZENS of custom ones with helmets as advertised in all pictures for the product and if the rest are the crap ones it would be fine, instead i receive all five terrible "custom clones" with gaudy colors chosen for the actual lego pieces so you cant even use them with other accessories to make normal looking figures side note these were a present for my little cousin and if i had not checked what was inside i'm sure it would have been a great disappointment

I ordered a specific gunship, and the website said it would ship at the end of the next month (end of september) fast forward to the middle of december, no gunship, and i tried being patient with him over paypal but he kept saying it was on its way until the case closed. and after it has missed the final deadline i am done with this. slimy owner. just give me my money back dude.

This was absolutely my fault for trusting this company one last time. I really thought, "Let me try one of the larger options and maybe, just maybe I'll get something good." Turns out that you get less than you pay for, at WAY over market price on bricks (trust me, Timmy boy, I see the Bricklink costs and you're not fooling anyone with your spiel about "overhead") for something insignificant. Seriously, what I received WAS advertised on the box, but without a listing for that set on the website, I could not have anticipated how absolutely minuscule the TIE Interceptor I received would be. (Imagine for a moment you expected a TIE the size of one of LEGO's official sets -- because why wouldn't you expect that's what he's selling you -- and then receiving a mini-chibi version the size of the one that comes with the Death Star. That's what literally just happened.) But like I said, a lot of this is my fault for holding out any hope for this scammer. I will not be purchasing from them, and I hope that more people step forward to whistleblow this company to shreds. Enjoy your 25% off for 5* reviews, bootlickers. Hope kissing up to a guy whose only love is profit gets you what you want in life.

I paid full price for a large set, never received. Only store owner can interact with USPS but it has been more than 8 months and still no set. I have requested a refund but it has not been sent.

Bribing customers with 25 percent off this store is a scam. I ordered a few sets ($175 worth) back in august and still have yet to receive any of them. When I inquired about them the first time they said the items were waiting for preorder but the store page didn’t have any indication that the items whereby available at the time of purchase. But the seller reorder date came and went and still nothing, not even a hey there’s a delay. When I asked again they said they were waiting on the sets however it has been 4 months and I have yet to receive anything. I have cancelled my order and will not be returning.

Company is a scam, products are deceptively priced.

Dude is pretty much paying people to write good reviews

I was going to hold my tongue but now that Timmy is trying to buy positive reviews offering 25% off in exchange for a 5 star review, here to give some insight into what this “company” actually is. 1. Fake giveaways - has been using the same photo of the cloud city 10123 set for multiple give aways over the past year. And the tagged “winner” accounts are dormant accounts with no interaction with Republic Bricks. 2. 3+ months shipping - prepare to wait forever if you order from them. Truly despicable how they think it’s okay to ship items months from the order date and that you have to be okay with it. I waited over 4 months for one order. But it could be a pre order you have to wait for? That preorder date is almost certainly a lie. The preorder date came and went. I reached out to customer service and they gave me a new shipment date to look forward to. This happened 3 separate times before I finally requested to cancel my order. 3. Horrible customer service - continuing from my previous point, you think if a company had missed 4 promised shipment dates they would respect your request to cancel your order right? Wrong. They ignored my emails and I had to file disputes with the credit card to get my money back. They refuse to do anything to accommodate customers and think they are always in the right. And if they make a mistake? Their response is, we are trying our best and you need to deal with it. Flat out ignoring customers after failing to deliver an order for 4 months is unacceptable. 4. Mystery boxes - first off, everyone should know by now that mystery boxes overall are a scam. So some blame is apportioned to people who buy them in the first place. But the mystery boxes at Republic bricks are especially bad. All they are is ways to get rid of sets and inventory no one wants. Timmy used to just repost every tag on his insta story but he’s wisened up now because when he would do that, it was extremely easy to see that a lot of people were receiving the same set around the time each specific mystery box would go out. Now he doesn’t repost the mystery boxes but you should know, if you order it, you’re getting trash. Furthermore, you’re not even guaranteed to get something that’s listed on the website. I have seen people get “sets” (if you can call them that) that weren’t even listed for sale they were so bad. I could write an essay on how much of a scam these mystery boxes are but I’ll stop here. 5. You aren’t guaranteed to get your order - republic bricks reserves the right to cancel your order or part of your order at any time, so even if you purchase it and it says in stock, there’s no guarantee you get it (ironic they can cancel your order when they feel like it but you can’t cancel under any circumstances). Also, I have received 2 orders: one in which they flat out didn’t include purchased items and one in which they sent a different set to the one I ordered. They included a note saying the one I ordered wasn’t in stock and but the replacement one was just as good. (Spoiler alert, it was all black while the one I ordered had colors and it sucked). No partial refund or anything to make up for sending incorrect orders. 6. Zero quality control - every set I and others have received is missing pieces and their response is to go use brick link (I don’t want to pay more for a set you claim is complete) and a lot of the bricks are scratched and discolored. 7. Overpriced - self explanatory. I hope to someday find a more public platform to share the details and proof of my claims here and prevent other people from wasting their money, but hopefully a few people see this and I save their hard earned time and money. I have more trust in a street vendor selling Rolex’s in New York.
