Good video. I do enjoy watching peoples reviews of previous year's investments. My only (constructive) criticism would be that if you're using eBay selling fees to calculate your ROI, you should really be using eBay sold prices to give a more realistic return. (Amazon prices are always much higher, but so are their fees.) You'd still be in profit I'm sure, but not by as much... and I suspect your No.1 slot might be filled by a different set using this method.
Thank you for the comment. Having been an eBay seller for many years, there’s a lot I will need to learn about selling on Amazon between now and around this time next year when I intend to send off my stock in time to re-stock around Black Friday 2025. I’ve used Amazon prices as I intend on selling the majority of my stock using them, where I’ve just purchased 1 or a few sets I’ll use eBay. The maths for this video isn’t an exact science, I’ll need to factor in a higher platform fee but as the only variable, the current placings shouldn’t change👌🏼
@@cariad4297 Ouch! Thanks for the info. I’ve got a lot to research to do before I sell my 2023 stock. If the fees are that much here, I’ll have to weigh up the lower eBay fees with lower returns against Amazon’s higher fees with inflated prices.
Thank you. This little wireless microphone seems to be working fairly well, it wasn’t great clipped onto my t-shirt on my last video. The audio sounds better just holding it. I’ve actually ordered a proper desk microphone 🎙️ but Amazon now says it won’t be here until next month.
@@LubosProkop I’m still new to this so any feedback whether positive, negative or constructive is appreciated. Hopefully the desk microphone 🎙️ will get the audio right on point.
@@jasonmcbride1703 Awesome. There’s quite a few sets that almost made this list too like the police station. I’m still a bit shocked about the JP set. Great you picked up most of these too
@@loksterchu7398 Absolutely and yes apologies, the figures aren’t an exact science, just a rough idea for now. Fracturing in postage, I guess it’s better to ship off a lot of smaller sets to spread the cost rather than 1 big set.
Nice video…Like some of the other comments the fees you are thinking you’ll be charged on Amazon FBA will probably be twice that which has a significant impact, also check you have picked the right listing for example the Viking ship is currently £109 on Amazon, I can only assume you picked another listing in error?
@@TaggyTots I’ve found the same with the Viking ship too, but it was definitely a listing for it. As I say I was shocked to find it for £160. There were double packs for it too with the 3 in 1 pirate ship and the price for the 2 still seemed to reflect a really high price. Yes it seems like the fees will be much more. Lots to learn and research🧐 any further vids I’ll probably need to factor in a third of the price in fees.
@@The_Brick_Sidefor sure it would have been someone who’d listed it for a higher price, £109 being the cheapest, sometimes Amazon had duplicate listings too for the same product…don’t let this put you off making videos though this is just a small bit of feedback!
A few great choices there. Apart from the Llama, you could find the other 2 sets with at least 1/3 off. It does show you that on occasion, it can be worth paying full RRP/ MSRP for the right set.
@@Mah_Bricks I almost ordered some more BrichHeadz this morning but then stopped myself as there’s no GWP at the moment. Thats the only real way you can get a ‘discount’ as such or when you get 2X Insiders. A number of retiring BrickHeadz were discounted last December, but not all of them.

In the USA the Amazon FBA fee is closer to 28% plus the postage charges to their warehouse and finally storage fees.

So it's even worse than Steam Community Market lol.
Way better audio this time, and nice video. Keep it up!

Well done on the Jurassic Park set, the cards never fell for me on that one. Got the rest bar Hp book.

Hi mate. You need to factor in postage costs and a % for Amazon returns
@@loksterchu7398 Absolutely and yes apologies, the figures aren’t an exact science, just a rough idea for now. Fracturing in postage, I guess it’s better to ship off a lot of smaller sets to spread the cost rather than 1 big set.
@@The_Brick_Side I take it you are ungated?

@@TaggyTots All taken on board and any feedback appreciated, especially from anybody with experience selling on Amazon.
I got the huffle puff, dodge charger and llama brickheadz all sold out already, good pick and great video!!

@@The_Brick_Side Totally agree 💯
Especially the Brickheadz set, hard to get discounted price
