Day 28

Description

We sat down with Paul and Ali from Ali’s Bricks and Bitz to chat about how they run their Bricklink Store and why they do it.
They recently reached a sales milestone of ONE MILLION pieces and they look forward to continuing to support everyone’s LEGO ® Projects.

What is Bricklink?
We have heard Bricklink described in many ways including Ebay for Lego, but the official Bricklink description is:
An online marketplace for LEGO® products and represents a vibrant adult fan community. The website was founded in April 2000 and currently has more than 1 million members.

If you haven’t yet looked or purchased through Bricklink be prepared to spend some time getting to know the website and you will be amazed how much is available – just watch the international shipping!
One way of avoiding shipping costs that can add up is to SHOP LOCAL. Below are some links to Bricklink stores of our local stores.
