Looking at my 5 orders (again, I'm a big time seller,) it's obvious that minifigs are what sell. I don't think that's news to anyone.
With around 15,000 parts in my store, I just don't have the large quantities or variety that attracts those kinds of buyers. So it has me thinking about what I should do moving forward.
Minifigs sell well and are typically higher value. This means they are expensive to acquire though.
The 2 options I see are:
- Gamble on bulk minifig lots.
- Keep buying and parting out sets, but only sell the minifigs.
Or I guess 3—both.
Shifting to be minifig heavy in my store could have some advantages. They may be easier to store. And if I keep the other pieces for myself, that would be nice for MOCs.
Just some thoughts I'm mulling over.
