Discussion/Question I bought 250kg of LEGO. What now?
Alright so… two days ago, I went on a trip with my brother, from Croatia to Germany. It was a 12h trip but we got some good deals and we bought around 250kg of LEGO bricks + around 500 minifigs (there’s a lot of good ones).
Now… my job is to clean and sort everything. I also wanna make sure that we have accurate info about our inventory because the plan is to open up a shop here in Croatia BUT we also wanna sell parts through BrickLink and BrickOwl.
What system should I use? How should I sort everything? By color? Piece? Categories? Should I wash them all first of remove around 30% of broken, and burnt parts (I assume there’s gonna be a lot of faulty stuff) and what is the best way of keeping track of the inventory? Because I don’t think counting each piece 1 by 1 is gonna work for this huge pile of LEGO haha. I have some ideas but if there’s anyone who’s in LEGO business, I would appreciate some help.
Regardless, all ideas are welcome and I appreciate any input you guys give. Thanks!
