Where to Sell LEGO: eBay, Vinted, Mercari, Whatnot, BrickLink and More Compared

Where you sell LEGO depends on what you have. A complete, boxed set is easiest to sell where buyers search by set number. Minifigures often sell better one figure at a time. A tub of mixed bricks is often easiest to sell in one go, to a buyer who takes the lot. This guide compares eBay, Vinted, Mercari, Whatnot, Facebook Marketplace, BrickLink, Brick Owl, local sites in the UK and Europe, and shops that buy LEGO for cash. Fees and rules are taken from each company’s own pages on 10 November 2026.

We make FLUF Connect, a tool for listing the same item on several marketplaces. Most of this guide is about the marketplaces themselves.

Where Can You Sell LEGO Online?

Sets, Bulk or Minifigures: How Should You Sell Each?

Before you list anything, sort what you have into three piles. Each one sells differently.

Complete sets. A set is easier to sell when it is complete and you know its set number. LEGO says set numbers are five to seven digits long and printed on the box and the instructions. Put the number in the title: buyers search by it, and it lets them check the parts list. Bricks & Minifigs, a US chain that buys LEGO, asks sellers to bring sets in fully built, and says an open set in loose pieces may be valued at its bulk rate instead. Sealed sets are a separate case: LEGO.com marks sets “Retiring soon” before they leave the range, then “Retired Product” once no more stock is coming.

Minifigures. Figures sell one at a time, or in small themed lots, to people completing a collection. List each one with its theme, its original parts and any accessory it came with.

Bulk bricks. Mixed bricks are the hardest to price one by one. Two UK buyers, WeBuyBricks and BrickBuy, buy loose bricks by weight. WeBuyBricks says a set you can identify by name or number usually gets a higher price than the same bricks sold by weight, so pull out any complete sets first. Bricks & Minifigs does not buy by weight: its stores price bulk by volume, in person.

Is eBay Good for Selling LEGO?

eBay suits all three: sets, figures and bulk lots, in the US and the UK.

In the US, LEGO is not one of the categories eBay names with its own rate, so the “most categories” fee applies: 13.6% of the total sale up to $7,500 per item, and 2.35% on any part above that. A per-order fee of $0.40 is added on orders over $10 ($0.30 at $10 or less). The total sale includes the item price, the postage the buyer pays and sales tax, so the fee comes out a little higher than 13.6% of your price. You get up to 250 listings a month with no insertion fee, then $0.35 per listing.

In the UK, eBay’s private seller fee page says UK-based private sellers pay no final value fee and no regulatory operating fee when an item sells. Fees apply if you list more than 300 items in a month (35p a listing after that), add optional upgrades or post to an overseas address. Business sellers pay different rates.

Can You Sell LEGO on Vinted?

Yes. LEGO sets, Technic, Duplo and themed sets are listed and sold on Vinted UK. Vinted has no selling fees. The buyer pays a Vinted fee at checkout, which the price list puts at usually 3% to 8% plus £0.30 to £0.80. You only pay if you choose optional extras such as Bumps.

Is Mercari Good for LEGO?

Mercari is a US marketplace where listing is free. Under its fee page, a 10% selling fee applies to the item price and any shipping the buyer pays, for listings created or updated since 6 January 2025. There is no separate payment processing fee on those listings. The buyer pays a 3.6% Buyer Protection fee. Payout by direct deposit is free; Instant Pay costs $3 per cash-out.

Can You Sell LEGO on Whatnot?

Yes. Whatnot is a live shopping app, and its Toys & Hobbies category lists LEGO. Sellers run shows and buyers bid in real time. It suits sellers with a steady supply of figures and sets more than someone selling one piece.

Its seller fees at the standard tier are 8% in the US and 6.67% in the UK, with VAT added in the UK and EU. Commission is charged on the item price only; shipping and taxes the buyer pays are left out. Payment processing is extra: 2.9% + $0.30 in the US, and 2.42% + £0.25 plus VAT in the UK. The rate depends on the category of the show, or of the item for non-live sales, so check the rate card for the category you sell in.

What About Facebook Marketplace?

Facebook Marketplace is good for bulky lots and big sets that cost a lot to post, because a local buyer can collect them. Meta’s US Seller Protection Policy lists a fee of 10% per transaction, with a minimum of $0.80, charged on the whole transaction including delivery and taxes. We could not confirm from Facebook’s own pages what applies to a cash sale on local pickup, so check in the app before you list.

If you sell locally, meet in a busy public place, let the buyer check that the set is complete, and take payment before you hand it over.

Local Sites in the UK and Europe

• Gumtree (UK): no seller fees when the buyer pays through Gumtree’s payments; the buyer pays a protection fee. Whether an ad costs anything to post depends on the category, where you are and whether you post as a business.
• Kleinanzeigen (Germany): private ads are free in principle; above 100 ads in 30 days in categories such as consumer goods, each extra ad costs €1.99 including VAT.
• Marktplaats (Netherlands): the Dutch classifieds site. Check its help pages for current costs; we could not load them on 10 November 2026.

Where Can You Sell LEGO for Cash?

If you would rather sell a whole collection in one go, these buyers make an offer and take the lot. You get less than selling piece by piece, in exchange for speed and no listing.

• Bricks & Minifigs (US stores): buys sets, minifigures and bulk for cash or store credit, and says store credit usually gets a higher offer. Valuation is in store only, with ID; sealed sets still on sale need a receipt. Its offers follow a reseller model, not collector prices.
• WeBuyBricks (UK): gives an instant online offer for sets by name or set number, and for loose bricks by weight, with free drop-off or home collection. It pays by bank transfer or PayPal once it has checked the LEGO.
• BrickBuy (UK): buys sealed, complete and incomplete sets, loose bricks by the kilo and loose minifigures, and asks for at least two photos per set. It does not buy clone brands, Duplo, or boxes and instructions on their own.
• Vintage.com (UK, formerly Vintage Cash Cow): accepts all LEGO, from loose bricks to boxed sets, sends a free postage pack, and makes an offer in 7 to 14 days. If you accept, it pays within 2 working days; if not, it posts the LEGO back free.

Get more than one offer, and take out complete sets and minifigures first: they are usually worth more on their own than in a bulk lot.

What About BrickLink and Brick Owl?

BrickLink is an online LEGO marketplace owned by the LEGO Group, which announced it had acquired BrickLink in November 2019. LEGO’s own help article on retired sets sends people who can’t find a set on LEGO.com to BrickLink. Check BrickLink’s own help pages for its seller fees and store rules before you open a store.

Brick Owl is another online LEGO marketplace. Its store fees page says there is no fee for having a store or for listing items. It charges a 2.65% commission on the order total, minus postage and non-import taxes, and VAT may be added to the commission depending on the store’s country. The commission is billed at the start of the month, and only once it is over £5 in your local currency. Buyers pay no Brick Owl fees.

FLUF Connect does not connect to BrickLink or Brick Owl.

How Much Do You Keep on a $100 LEGO Set?

Here is what each US marketplace would take from a $100 set, for a private seller offering free shipping, before sales tax and your own postage costs.

Brick Owl’s figure is its commission alone, before any VAT on it; check how your buyers pay and what that costs you. On eBay, sales tax counts towards the total sale, so the real fee is a little higher. In the UK, a UK-based private seller pays no final value fee on eBay and no selling fee on Vinted.

The cheapest place is not always where you net the most. A set listed where few buyers look can sit for months, while one in front of more buyers sells sooner, and often closer to its full price.

Can You List the Same LEGO Set on Several Sites?

Yes. A set listed on eBay, Vinted and Mercari reaches three sets of buyers instead of one. The risk is selling it twice, so it has to come down everywhere else the moment it sells.

That is the job FLUF Connect does. You create the listing once and send it to the marketplaces you choose, including eBay, Vinted, Mercari, Whatnot, Facebook Marketplace, Kleinanzeigen and Marktplaats. When the set sells on one of them, FLUF Connect takes it off the others. You need your own seller account on each marketplace. FLUF Connect does not connect to BrickLink or Brick Owl, so listings there have to be ended by hand.

How Do You Get a Better Price for LEGO?

• Find the set number. It is on the box and the instructions, and you can look it up on LEGO.com. Put it in the title.
• Check the set is complete. Build it, or check it against the instructions, and say plainly if any pieces or figures are missing.
• Keep the box and instructions. Buyers such as Vintage.com say complete sets with original packaging get a better offer.
• Keep minifigures whole. List each figure with its original parts and accessories.
• Clean and sort bulk. Take out anything that is not LEGO, and pull out complete sets and figures before you sell the rest as a lot.
• Check sold prices. Look at what the same set number has sold for, not what sellers are asking.
