catbricks Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 I'm headed through Charlotte this weekend, planning a stop at the LEGO store. I checked BrickBuildr, but the Charlotte PaB wall doesn't have much information. (I'm excited about brown 1x4 tiles shown, hope that's accurate.). Can anyone who's been recently tell me anything about what to expect? This'll be my first PaB opportunity (recently returned AFoL), and I'm trying to be strategic about what I get. I'll have a pre-schoo FoL with me, so my time to think on the fly about what to snag is going to be somewhat limited. Thanks!

Would a moderator kindly move it for me? (Newbie, sorry.)
Siegfried Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds makes more sense to me.
Stash2Sixx Posted October 7, 2009 Posted October 7, 2009 Just give them a call, ask for the Pick A Brick expert, or at least find out when that person will be in. Then just ask away. Most stores are helpful, and if they aren't, just let us all know! Concord Mills = 704-979-5708 Crabtree Valley = 919-787-5771

catbricks Posted October 11, 2009 Author Posted October 11, 2009 Pretty good haul. I got this in my large PaB cup: 97 1x4 tiles brown (reddish-brown?) 4 stairs black 8 panels trans-clear 8 1x4x6 door frames black 9 trans-clear doors 4 1x8 tiles blue 5 flags 12 1x1 plates, round trans-blue 6 grates white 9 1x4tiles green 10 cockpit tiles (1x2) 44 1x4 bricks lt bley 35 1x4 bricks brown 32 1x2 bricks brown 24 corner bricks 2x2 dk bley 24 1x3 bricks lime 24 1 x 2 bricks lime 73 1x1 plates, round lime Total: 428 parts. Guess-timate bricklink price: $29, online PaB $76 And there were STILL voids in the cup. I only had 1/2 an hour before closing, so I was rushed. Unfortunately, I missed out on the plants - may have to stop back in on Friday on the way back north...
