    Great video! Meaningful information, useful screen text, no filler or messing around, and the background music was not intrusive and also suited the calm presentation style.

    Nice video bud! My wife is currently on step 6. It's been very profitable putting the sets back together and selling them, but of course very time consuming.

    Your video came up on top. I was wondering if people bother with whole sets. I found out iblove sorting and building them. Also my kids break it apart faster than i build them. I recently got my first bulk of 10 pounds and will try getting something out of them beforebi buy more😅

    I am an enthusiast first. I collect some City, Starwars and speed champs. What I do is I get the bulk. Do an initial sort into 5 piles, Trash, printed/stickered piece, Large pieces, minifigs, general bulk. I also set aside any prebuilt chunks to help determine what sets I might have. From there we wash. Once washed I will do a secondary sort of the bulk to put them in my storage system, which is by type of brick until I get too many, then I break those down by color. From there I look up the instructions for the sets I think I have, and start building out the ones I want the most to complete first ( Just incase there is part carry over, id rather short hand a set I do not like ) As I build these sets, I take note of missing parts. If by the end of sorting and building I do not find those missing parts, I order them from bricklink to complete the sets. Sets that fit into my collections I keep, sets that do not, or I might already have I will sell as complete with no instructions or box. Minifigs that are not basic, will get sold. Basic minifigs will get set aside for a future city build. Starwars minifigs are my favorite. I collect the ships, not the minifigs and often times you can make back a substantial chunk of your spend with one or two minifigs. The remainder of the bulk sits in storage to complete future sets and mocs.
