If you’re in the LEGO world — as a builder, collector, or flipper — you’ve probably used Bricklink at some point. It’s long been the go-to marketplace for buying individual LEGO pieces, minifigs, and even sealed sets. But in 2025, is Bricklink still worth it?
Yes — But It Depends On Your Use Case
For custom builders: Bricklink is still the best place to buy rare parts, bulk bricks, and minifigures in specific quantities. No other site matches its catalog or sorting filters. If you’re sourcing for MOCs (My Own Creations), it’s still king.
For resellers: It’s a mixed bag. Fees have crept up, and LEGO’s ownership has led to more restrictions and tighter enforcement. That said, if you run a well-rated store and sell high-demand parts or figs, you can still make good money. But it’s not as casual-friendly as it once was.
Downsides to Watch For
- Shipping costs can add up fast — especially if you’re buying from multiple sellers.
- Price per piece can fluctuate wildly. It’s no longer the cheapest option in every case.
- More sellers are now cross-listing on eBay and Whatnot, sometimes with better prices.
Want an Easier Option?
If you just want to grab full sets at a good price, Amazon has plenty of solid deals on sealed LEGO sets — especially during Prime events and seasonal sales. No sorting through 12 different sellers. Just add to cart and go.
Final Verdict: Still Worth It (If You Know What You’re Doing)
Bricklink in 2025 is still useful — but no longer the universally best option. Use it if you’re a builder who needs precision or a seller with inventory and experience. If you’re a casual buyer or looking for sealed sets to flip, Amazon or eBay might be faster and cheaper.
