Wow great to hear your still on this train that never seems to run out if tracks. I'm feeling like another year of vlogs is going to happen.

So has your brickowl seen an uptick these last few days? Praying for all you full timers. I want to get there someday but I’m thankful for my day job at the moment.

The weekend was pretty weak sales but Tuesday morning woke up to $800 in 15 orders, so going strong right now.

My store was doing the best numbers too! Such a shame that the BL hack is happening... Missed out on a heck of a lot of orders :/

Right in the heat of Q4 too! Not ideal at all for anyone working this full-time especially those that have no other income streams etc.

@danielle_wheels What a way to start that new career. My best guess is they will give us a date and time in advance of reopening. Best guess is Thursday, but could be a bit longer as they say.

@@PopsBlockShop Yh, I should really start to expand those streams. Luckily, I have quite the buffer so I'm still doing good.

The increase in the free shipping threshold is likely paying off. My sales lately have been dead despite me listing a ton of good stuff.

How do you decide what to put on Bricklink and what to put on Brickowl?

Hello, the issue of BrickLink and BrickOwl and warehouse synchronization is quite simple. But how do you protect yourself against buying a given block from E-Bay and at the same time from BL/BO? Do you have all the blocks listed on E-Bay? So, do you manage it all yourself? Manual removal from stock? This must be very labor-intensive. Can you tell me? Regards!

All my ebay inventory is not listed for sale anywhere else. No need to manual change anything when items sell on any platform.

@@PopsBlockShop Ok, so let's assume that you have a total of 1000x Light Gray Bricks 1x1. Of this, you have 500 pieces listed on BL/BO and the other 500 pieces on E-Bay? How do you divide your assortment? Do I think right?

@@waniek1991 I would sell them all on Bricklink and Brickowl. I currently do not sell Parts like this on ebay. If I did I would probably put most on ebay since takes a lot more time and effort to list items on ebay, but rewards are greater.

Do you ever play Pool on that pool table?

@PopsBlockShop

Absolutely yes! Right now it is ping pong season. Usually in December pool comes into play. It's a 1950s pool table and came with home. They had an auction before we bought the house and sold table, but they could not get it out of the basement, so here we are.

D***, that's crazy. You'd be making like 500 bucks in 1 day off. Legos? I'm trying to learn this. This seems like a decent way as a hobby to make some sidecash. I know on the level that you're doing. It seems like a full-time thing. But my God, I do not have the house to dedicate. What looks like to be several rooms just to inventory. Still, though I'm trying to do a lot of my research on brick. Lincoln break out and make sure that i'm gonna be making the right choice before I pull the trigger on it
