I think this is quite good an idea, but sometimes the individual parts become quite expensive, adding the shipping!! Let's share who do you buy from the most??? Unfortunately, for some famous seller, particular those from MALTA, get too famous and bid wars appear, and the prices got driven to some unrealistic level.  :love: Disclaimer: I am not a seller on ebay and hold no relationship with any one of them:wave:

I buy from Baden (he's a member here too) a lot, and he sells the parts individually like that, but with buy it now prices. I think it's a great idea. I know if I need an individual part from a big set, I'm willing to pay a little more than the part is technically worth just to avoid buying the whole set. And it gets here in two days because he lives very close to me, instead of having to wait on a parts order from DS.

Are they all new??? I mostly buy from UK and Malta, as their shipping to Hong Kong is cheap and the system is efficient.

They're new a lot of the time, sometimes if it's a part from an old set, it will be a used item. But they're always in good condition. And he usually lists the set number in the description of each item, so if you look up all the sets the item has beeen in, then you can easily search through his store inventory and see if he has it. (Sorry to talk about you like you're not here, Baden!  :wave: )

I buy individual parts and items mostly from playmofieber, playmozwerg27, and sometimes from Midlandtoys-Berlin and Pauline's Playmo Land.

I buy klickies and steck from Librejoggen and just klickies from ps-internet-store, cofisa, cubbuc200, and Kick mol rin.

I buy sets without box from veronikafoto and rotzname, and boxed or misb sets from bebel94, klicky-paradies and klicky-town.
For very special occasions, I buy any item or set from playmochris.

When i am unable to find what I am looking for, Baden is the right seller to visit!

Mind you I might buy more than twenty items sometimes so shipping/postage cost is acceptable to me.

i've bought from klicky-town in germany but the last time i inquired about shipping costs they said they didn't ship to mexico (their auctions say they ship WORLDWIDE) - i felt very excluded >:( >:( >:(

I deal with alot of these sellers also with the exception of Librejoggen who refuses to sell those outside of Europe! Ralf is the one I spend the most money with ;)!
