- Construction Toys Lego By: Jonathon Hardcastle

Indeed, the ancient Greek philosopher Plato wrote that the future architect should play at building houses as a child.
Being a construction toy, LEGO is a line of toys featuring colorful plastic bricks, gears, minif...

- Should you Sell New or Used Toys? By: proudmomma
Selling new toys on E-bay can be exciting, especially during the holiday season. But it is a game you may win or lose. Some toys will not even make it for retail price, while others will triple the retail price before the auction closes. An item that sells great this week, may not necessarily be a good item to sell next week. Stock on the retail shelves is a good indicator if the item will sell or not. Even that can change day to day, what is there today, may be gone tomorrow.
