If you don't know what kits you have in a pile of lego, you might want to try using the minifigs to identify the kits. Once you've identified a kit, download its instructions (or at least its inventory) and try to find all those parts from the pile, then repeat on the progressively smaller pile.
@RegDwigнt Yeah. But the mere presence of Spider-Man limits the total possible sets from infinity to like 15.
And yes, Harry Potter figs (esp the first few years) were all identical-looking because they're all the same legs and torsos. But the ones with the slytherin crest are more rare than the ones with the griffyndor crest.
plus a few that I don't plan to open, like the limited edition jor-el minifig or the silver star wars droid that they gave away at the lego store opening.
I am running out of room in my one billy bookcase for part storage. I used to have two empty shelves and now there's only one, and that's where I display my sopwith camel and millennium falcon. But I need to buy at least 5 more boxes.
My wife says "If you think I'm going to let you get a second bookcase, think again" :p
I bought Series 1 and 2 and then was disappointed to see the prices drop by half, so for Series 3 I waited, and then forgot all about it for just a couple months, and now it's suddenly disappeared and I'd have to pay twice the price to get it on amazon.
Oh, BTW. In other news I got an invite today for a new BrickLink feature, where you can submit your MOCs, and then shop owners can sell the parts needed for them, and you get a provision.
There are lots of resources on how to end a letter politely and respectfully. What if I want to end a letter formally, but without conveying any friendliness whatsoever? Say, how do lawyers sign when sending you a cease and desist letter?
