I have bought from three of these sellers, with a total of ten different transactions, so you can imagine that I very much appreciate your choices. But I have bought from many sellers on BL (probably more than 40, it is hard to count), and nearly all of them are as good as these outfits.

BL is really is an amazing community! I regard what these folks do as a public service: it is clear to anyone with half a brain that BL is not going to make you rich. It is a lovely example of a free market, and competition keeps the prices almost unreasonably low. So, to echo Fred, thank you BL sellers!

Some padded envelopes, some plastic bags, and a Sharpie are pretty much all you need.

Also about the pitfalls (if any) of shipping internationally, making declarations for customs duties and so on. Perhaps a follow up article?

I’m a big fan of BrickLink and have often wondered about some of the sellers behind this. A wide range of people.

Now I look at bricklink sellers at totally different eyes (I really thought that this was just a hobby, not a real business for all :)
