Hi everyone,
I don't know where you can get 1000 tub, (Wal-mart?)and how you can handle
and sorted that...(you have your own warehouse?)
Anyway, at $0.025 I can be interested for around 500 white plate
(1/3 thick if you get some) of any size from 1x1 to 2x16.
I dont realy have time too look at lugnet every day So, if you go
ahead whit your project, let me know.

I have seen numerous auction listings for bulk bricks and was wondering if
there was a demand for bulk sales in (nearly) unlimited quantities.  I am
considering purchasing A LOT of tubs and parting them out.  I would keep the
less popular colors and sell the ones in demand.  Mainly, Black, Green and
White.

Would there be people interested in purchasing new bricks in black or white
for 2.5 cents per brick or green for 3.5 cents per brick?  These would be the
same distribution as the bulk tubs and could be "ordered" in either 1x AND 2x
or just in 1x thickness.  Also available would be 1x bricks in yellow, red and
blue if anybody wanted.

I am looking to do this to cut my cost per brick down and build Train Modules
similar to the GMLTC.  If I can get people who are interested in buying the
other colors off of me, I will be buying 1,000 Bulk tubs.  This will generate
the following pieces for anyone who wanted them (straight sales - no • auctions):

120,000 Black
244,000 White
104,000 Green

I can ship UPS (cheapest for heavy weight) and would only charge actual
shipping costs.  Also, these pieces will be pre-sorted and bagged by size.

If interested, please email me at: lego@poindexter.cc

Also, any comments or suggestions would be welcome.

Mike
