    You and your family live by a perfect example of how LEGO brings everyone together. The bond is strong. Bud is definitely a legend. It's always interesting to see what he is able to find for you.

    your mother and father in law are awsome! bud is a legend indeed! :)

    I love this story of how the legendary Budman found this Lego lot. He's definitely someone I would take with to find the Lego deals. Great job. 👍 I feel that $40 was a very fair price for what was in the lot. It's so cool that you got Deb and Bud into Lego. That's like every dudes dream to have the whole family loving Lego.
    You can make those boat hull pieces look better with some plastic polish. I got some really good stuff off of Amazon called Novus fine scratch remover and plastic clean and shine. You definitely have your work cut out for you but it will make some great content. I think there's videos on how to restore the old sails. I can't wait to see you complete the pirate ship. Great video my friend and kiddos to the Budman!

    $40 I would say fair. It’s the Lego u get really cheap that spoils fair pricing I believe. How much are the sail mast’s worth individually?

    I want to hear the story behind Clark getting some cheese puffs

  • @darthfakington2227
    @darthfakington2227 Před 2 lety +12

    Greg, what are you on about? Those sails alone are worth $40.

    • @kevin30783
      @kevin30783 Před 2 lety +2

      Yeah, and if the compass is in there, that's worth 15 bucks, and those minifigs are expensive too. Nice haul, nice video!

    • @brickitect
      @brickitect  Před 2 lety +4

      Really? That’s amazing. Hopefully I can clean them up to get them looking new again.

    • @SethGroover
      @SethGroover Před 2 lety

      Lowest on bricklink for the ship is 250. That’s incomplete.

  • @brickybrit
    @brickybrit Před 2 lety +1

    Everything you said is completely true and $40 is fair. There’s so many man hours of work there. Time is money too.

  • @gordonm9884

    Love how pumped you were at the beginning. I bet you could not sleep the night before.....sorry it was in such a rough shape. But still I can see the thrill of the chase.

  • @nickhayley

    Look at that face, Greg! Clean as a whistle! Enjoying the content and those livestreams. Sorry I haven't made it on recently.
    All the best.

  • @camaro88rds
    @camaro88rds Před 2 lety +2

    I would say you got a fair deal on this. I mean sure its gonna take some work to clean up the pieces and the sails of the ship.
    But once its all said and done you'll have a nice vintage set and some nice figures to go along with it. You might even have another complete set in there and not realize it. Assuming all the pieces for the ship are there.

  • @macdaddy2344

    That pov of walking out with the legos lol

  • @justfuninc
    @justfuninc Před 2 lety

    i enjoyed the story. Still pretty cool. Agreed with the father-in-law. You gave him the low down. I think it was a FAIR deal. I would've only offered only $30. As for the video log:
    $40 Dirty Vintage LEGO.
    Time spend with Father-in-Law
    = "Priceless"

    Greg, try using a salad spinner to help with the cleaning.

  • @SamWhitman-ip1dj
    @SamWhitman-ip1dj Před 5 měsíci

    That was definitely worth 75, you got red beards runner with the sails plus all those vintage mini figs.

  • @LoganBrickfilms
    @LoganBrickfilms Před rokem

    Yeah i would feel so bad if i had to tell someone it wasn’t worth the asking price, but its the kind of thing you get over pretty quickly, i also remember really wanting the red beard runner set in 2014 from seeing it in “the lego book” but i knew it was way before my time in collecting

  • @randysmith7451
    @randysmith7451 Před 2 lety

    Boil one large pot of water
    dumpin boiling water into 5gal bucket with lego and soapy water

    Great deal a little pricey but it’s a classic pirate ship

  • @L-AFOL-de-MOC
    @L-AFOL-de-MOC Před 2 lety

    I recently got a massive box like this for free. A tonne of work sorting and cleaning it all. I personally don’t mind faded pieces, gives more colour options!

  • @evanpassmore474
    @evanpassmore474 Před 2 lety +1

    The boat alone is worth it

  • @harmonious8930
    @harmonious8930 Před 2 lety

    great value

  • @Bat-talk
    @Bat-talk Před 2 lety

    I agree that some used toys should be “played with” but it’s better when they’re used and not damaged or if they got dirty
    To get cleaned
    If they’re resold they could’ve been cleaned

  • @thekindles1183
    @thekindles1183 Před 2 lety +1

    hmm, that's a lot of cleaning. I'd say cool if you can make the ship happen. :) - k & b

  • @MegaThelegoshow
    @MegaThelegoshow Před 2 lety +2

    I say it is pretty fair

  • @robertclarke4482
    @robertclarke4482 Před 2 lety

    I think it’s was “great deal” tbh like even just the minifingers are great and also some good pieces in general

  • @kadensdailyjourney9072

    Greg here is how to dust your dusty lego use a paint brush and brush the entire set

  • @michaelbricksforreal3631

    Great deal

  • @AydenTheCarrot
    @AydenTheCarrot Před 2 lety

    It is easily worth 75 but 40! those sails and hulls are easily 75 dollars on their own.

  • @sallywilson4403
    @sallywilson4403 Před 2 lety

    As a fellow Fisher person your father-in-law is a great batter . how can u put a price on the memories you ll be able to make with clark. I m thinking he used a worm and bobber with guy.😊

  • @noodlelicious.
    @noodlelicious. Před 2 lety

    After watching the streams, this was even dirtier more broken than this video made it seem. Greeeeasy

  • @Bat-talk
    @Bat-talk Před 2 lety

    $40 isn’t much of a waste
    If you did 50-100 or more yeaaa
    But no it was good
    You can clean some pieces perfectly and some in hydrogen peroxide with sunlight

    Hii im your fun i start colleting lego since 2019

  • @fatdandelions
    @fatdandelions Před 2 lety +1

    IT was certainly worth 75 dollars. Counting all the sets in there. And the worth if some pieces alone, are hundreds dollars worth. You are a salesman, you can certainly haggle up the price !

  • @LebronJames-kd6pw
    @LebronJames-kd6pw Před 2 lety +3
