    Would love a suggestion or video on how to not spend a fortune on shipping? For example i made a grill, that was 82 pieces. Auto select found 2 stores and it was going to cost me $9 for parts from two stores. Then I went to checkout and all of a sudden I'm playing $9 for parts and then another $12 for shipping. Is there a way to avoid this, or am I just stuck paying way more for each individual piece once I factor in shipping

    • @MidnightLaMour
      @MidnightLaMour 2 роки тому +2

      I've noticed Bricklink's algorithm isn't always the best at finding the most cost-effective deals. After making carts for the various stores, I've reviewed the smaller carts and tried to find those pieces at the stores that have larger carts. I usually end up paying more for the pieces, but I can eliminate the smaller carts and don't have to pay shipping and handling to another store. It's time consuming, but saves money in the long run.
      AFOL also wasn't kidding about prices changing often. I've created carts on a Monday, but cancelled them (usually because it was too expensive). Then, come back a day or two later to recreate the carts, and the cost has dropped (or gone up). It depends on the pieces you want, the store, their stock, and if they're running any deals.
      Lastly, when they auto-selected the stores to buy from, a pop-up window appears about whether or not you want to allow stories despite not meeting the minimum purchase amount. This (to me) is pretty big deal. If you select stores that have cheaper parts, but they have a $25 minimum buy, you need to keep adding parts before you can purchase. You end up spending more just to meet the minimum. If you uncheck that box, it eliminates stores if you don't meet the minimum price. Again, you might end up paying more for the pieces, but you're not spending more to meet the sellers demands.
      Lastly, I'm also a stickler for reading the seller's terms. Often they charge extra fees for small purchases. I've eliminated carts at some stories because I haven't meet their minimum to avoid the fee, and recreated carts elsewhere. Again, this is time consuming to do, but if you wanna save a buck, it helps.
      Sorry this is so long!

That can’t be right, I’m gonna go over your video and make a new cart and see if I can find a better price, so then at least I know what not to do again, as I will defiantly be buying more products in the future for my lego city.
