Really interesting interview. Coincidentally, I have family in Kalamazoo, and my 11-year-old nephew is a Lego fanatic. My sister has kept me updated on how excited he was when the Bricks and Minifigs opened there, and that he was able to trade in some of his old sets for his dream set, Helm’s Deep. Adam also has a great location for a BAM, since the nearest Lego Store and Bricks and Minifigs are several hours away. I’m sure he will do well!
Oh my gosh!!!!! Yesssss!!!!! Another store closer to me!!!! Still an hour away but that’s better than 4 hours maybe I can actually go every once in a while
Bricks and minifigs is awesome. Two somewhat close to me. One excels in figs, the other excels in used sets. Neither have great retired sealed sets unfortunately. But my boys and I love it!
so expensive for a franchise that isn't well known and will not allow you to sell anything but lego brand, I still have my documents as a reminder of I don't need to be told what to do. also, Andy is a great example of how to do it on your own and he's always willing to talk to others about it.
Why? I don’t see the benefit. I see the point of making the jump to brick and mortar is so you can do it yourself. I saw in the website they want a minimum investment of $100k lol

I love the Sioux Falls Bricks and Minifigs Store! I go at least once a week it seems!! Closest Lego store is 4 hours away otherwise.
Really appreciate this interview! Great insight.
Can you please do more interviews with Bricks & minifigs store owners
How long is the contract for and the subsequent not compete if any ?

Really glad you found it useful!
