Me too, I feel the same way you do, except for bulk bricks. Since I have
over 70 3033s worth of bulk, most of which is unsorted, (but still in the
individual bags) I can see where a first pass sort using these might save me
a fair bit of time, dump out all of one type of bag across all the bins,
feed a few at a time in, and things are at least partly sorted. Or maybe not.
I also have a lot of other sets where I have multiple copies and a first
pass may be helpful, I still have 50 siths to sort at the moment...
As you say, I've given it a go, and should have them in a week and we shall
see...
Thanks all!
