Our Story

Bickers Bricks started the way most good ideas do — at home, with the kids, surrounded by more LEGO than we knew what to do with.

I'm Jack, founder of Bickers Bricks. I've lived in Polegate for fifteen years, my kids go to school here, and when I started sorting through our collection a couple of years ago I realised two things: Lego holds its value remarkably well, and there was nowhere local to buy or sell it properly.

No specialist knowledge on the high street. No fair prices for people looking to sell. No community around it. Just eBay, inflated postage costs, and hoping for the best.

Building Something Better

We've been trading online since 2024 — buying, selling and rehoming sets across BrickLink and BrickOwl, with hundreds of orders fulfilled and 100% positive feedback. That experience taught us what Lego buyers actually want: honest descriptions, fair prices, and someone who knows what they're talking about.

Bickers Bricks, based at 192 Terminus Road, Eastbourne BN21 3BB was the natural next step. A proper shop, a 10 minute walk from the station and only 3 minutes from the Beacon, stocked with sealed retired sets, used sets, individual figures, alternative brick brands, and custom printed tiles and minifigures you won't find anywhere else.

More Than a Shop

From day one we want Bickers Bricks to be a place people come back to — not just to buy. We're planning regular building nights, MOC showcases where you can display your own creations, and community events for Lego lovers of every age.
