Hi Jay,
I was told by my local LEGO store that in order to participate in the special AFOL events I need to join a lug. The local lug in my area appears to have shut down. Are we able to get the “stickers” from your online lug that go on our VIP card (onLine??) that would show me to be an AFOL for these events? I started my journey with LEGO in 2019 just before the pandemic hit so I am not familiar with this “sticker” requirement. My local store is in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. I am subscribed to your blog.
Thanks, Wanda

Ah bummer! For a bulk order with those quantities, I’d look at Bricklink for that. 300 bricks in a single colour is a little tricky as I’m not sure any local stores have 300, but you could try ordering from European stores.

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3001#T=S&C=1&O={%22color%22:1,%22st%22:%224%22,%22iconly%22:0}

Let me know if that could work for you, if not, drop me an email and I can tap my networks to see if I can get you any help.

I am wanting to order 300 of white 2×4 bricks for a school project. Any advise getting this build order? I have tried the AUKLug group in NZ but they are no help at all!

In reply to william schork. Hey William, I'm actually not too well-versed with LEGO as investments, so I don't know how I can help. If you're looking to purely invest, I'm sure that there are better avenues to make money such as Index Funds. With collectibles like LEGO, you really do need to do your homework, and I feel that LEGO is quite a risky investment as LEGO have and will continue to re-release old, retired sets. If you're really keen on investing anyway, it's usually the non-obvious sets (not Modulars or Creator Expert) that appreciate - sets like Speed Champions due to the collectability, and also certain Ideas sets as they usually have short lifespans. Sets with pop culture relevance like Wall-E also tend to do well, but it's really, really hard to predict which sets will spike. Sorry that I can't be of more help!
