nobody say business is easy. and i'm saying if every customer also hope for robin hood seller like urself, then nobody will be willing to spend time sourcing for it. what most sellers are experiencing nowadays is people lowballing already very low price (doesnt happen to me much coz my target market is quite different). of coz as customers, we want the best price available. but as a buyer, sometimes have to be fair to the sellers also.
unfortunately, i can tell u honestly. profit margin for my stuff is only 2-5%. sometimes rugi if the retail price turn out to be cheaper than mine. if im lucky, 8-10%. but most of the time is way below that.
margin of more than 20% only happens in dreamland tongue.gif
that is why alby is the boss here. smile.gif

I totally agreed wit u. Tat's some of the reasons I hold back from going all out for Lego biz.. was tired of working and wanted to do something I like n enjoy

You mean you wanted to get stock from ALJ and open a lego only shop? Or sendiri masuk stock? Whatever it is, a very gutsy move!  thumbup.gif

Was planning sendiri masuk stock..
But now maybe I just stay wit my boring job better.. so many lowballing buyers nowadays.. want original Lego but wanna pay KO price...

Ok la...I have to admit. I went on a date with Ultraman at BV2. wub.gif

I have a shocking discovery about how on earth a shop like that can open at BV2. Some more, use the LEGO brand on the sign.
After chatting, it make sense how that shop can open there... whistling.gif

Anyhoo...

Surprisingly we ask them whether can get that eol sets.

Plus, I heard they will bring in the Iron Patriot polybag... whistling.gif

They r selling at rrp, no discount, cash only. The shop is not owned by a supposedly asiabrick guy, but their stock is definitely from the sole distributor in malaysia. smile.gif but they hv guys in there who are definitely AFOL who really kmow their stuff...  rclxms.gif

Eol sets so far none yet, but maybe in future may bring in. Fingers cross!  thumbup.gif
