I ordered a custom set back in July, It took over 2 months to arrive. After spending over £200 I had to pay an extra £48 in customs fees just to have the set delivered. RepublicBricks were slow to ans... See more

Do not buy (No matter how much ya want to)

I have ordered from them numerous times and after every experience, I am disappointed. From wrong brick tiles, to receiving the occasional non-LEGO brick tiles, to disappointingly fragile builds, receiving incorrect orders, and finally misleading marketing, I’m done. I know they seem like they offer something attractive, but I’m always disappointed.

Crab droid was missing parts.

Ordered an Episode 3 Crab Droid, the build was interesting and the instructions were fine, but there were a few parts missing that made it difficult to complete the set (one leg wouldn't connect)

I tried to contact RB and got an email telling me to order the parts on bricklink and that I'd get store credit for the amount, but I didn't want to order anything else so store credit would be useless. I emailed back asking for just the parts to be sent and never got a response.

Timmy is a liar and a baby in a grown mans body, (not really because he's built like a 14 year old).. he scams people for a living and gets away with it. Don't waste your money with this guy.

Horrible mystery pack scam

Horrible mystery pack scam. names posible ships/sets in a mystery box posting. you would asume its the ship they have on their website. but it turns out to be a small tiny version of the ship. 100% would not buy again. contacted them and they said “it states the ship in the posting” bad business practice. DO NOT BUY HERE!!

Owner is a scammer

Have bought mystery boxes twice. Total of 4 mystery boxes. The first order was two different mystery boxes, got two small sets. One set was complete, pieces were mid quality. Second set was incomplete with the two 4×6 flat pieces missing. I can understand small pieces missing, but not large pieces. Gave him the benefit of the doubt and ordered two of the same mystery box a few months later. I receive two of the exact same smallest set possible in the mystery boxes. I asked if they could do a swap to a different set and they agreed! I then shipped it back and went to build the one set I still had only to discover it was missing the two largest pieces in the set again. A month goes by and I don't hear anything. It took them 3 months for my replacement set to arrive after multiple emails asking when to expect it and explicitly asking for the set they send to be different. Received that set today....same set but black...the owner is clearly a scammer. Based on all the one star reviews here and all the comments on reddit when you search republic bricks there this business is a scam. DO NOT BUY.

Ordered some mystery sets

Ordered some mystery sets. Over a month since shipping label was created and zero movement. tried to address this with republicbricks owner , was told "contact USPS" and that was the last response. USPS didn't even have possession of the package, they cant do anything. I even purchased the package protection. Seems to me tis is a scam seller, thankfully paypal had my back.

RepublicBricks offers "deals" for good reviews

I was offered a discount for leaving a review, and I foolishly took them up on it. My first order for a single blind bag mini-fig took a while to get to me, but it was fine so I left a five star review and received a discount. I later used that discount to buy again from Republic Bricks and that was a huge mistake. I ordered 15 blind bag clone figures and got 12 of the same clone from a recent battlepack and 3 of their low quality RB custom clones. It also took 3 months to get shipped to me. The liar from RB said it was put in the mail three different times. It's like this buffoon doesn't realize there are digital receipts on mail shipments these days.

TLDR: It looks like the liar from RB bought a few battle packs at Target and then shipped them to me as "blind bags" and it took him 3 months to rip me off. Please believe the 1-star reviews from this place. They are grifters and they pay for reviews. I'm sorry if my initial review influenced anyone to buy from them.

DO NOT BUY!!! SCAM!!

Honestly if I could it’d be zero or negative stars this company is so bad. Ordered 2 mystery boxes that were supposedly request boxes, they were also supposed to be over $100 in value. At first glance thought it was a great purchase, even looked at everything that was possible in the box and was able to request as it was a request box. Ordered it mid September, was supposed to ship at the end of September, waited a whole 2 months for it to even ship. Had to check in 3 times and always got the same, it’ll ship soon. Finally received it and what we got was 2 tiny sets with only 246 pieces each. Sent him some messages asking what kind of joke it was and he continued to tell me that I should be happy for getting 2 sets both worth $150. I continued to talk with him as nobody in their right mind would spend even $40 on 246 pieces. Horrible owner, horrible customer service, and an absolute waste of money and time. It’s really too bad that he’s so scummy that there are no reviews for him on his website or anything for people to understand that it’s an absolute scam. DO NOT BUY!!

I ordered 5 mystery clone troopers

I ordered 5 mystery clone troopers, all the photos available on the listing shows troopers with HELMETS, but Ofcourse in the description it says that they MAY come with CAC helmets but if they don’t they’ll be printed on the head, i Ofcourse thought I may get two or so helmets out of the five I bought but no, ALL 5 did not come with helmets, why would you bait people by offering CAC helmets and then short sell everyone, I’ve seen many people complaining about this exact sale. This seller cuts corners and I am probably never buying from them again.

The seller sent clown troopers

The seller sent clone troopers with helmet printing on their faces, and no helmet. They have crazy colors and printing and look like clown troopers, not clone troopers. The seller will not allow a return and even though all but one image show the minifigs with helmets and the add states that some will have printing on their faces, I did not receive a single trooper with helmet.

Disrespect

Bought 15 mystery clones and this dude sent them all with face print and no helmet. I’ve been disrespected before but never like this. The colors are trash too like dude probably got the worst torsos and legs at his disposal and decided to print on them. Also shipment came a month later and only because I asked about it. If not I would’ve probably still be waiting. I don’t wish bad on people but it’s disgusting and disappointing how he operates his business and treats his clients like trash. As a business owner I dont understand how people with nasty business habits still stay in business.

What I got is not was I ordered

What I got is not was I ordered. The seller refused to give me a refund or a replacement. He has horrible customer service, I am warning anyone who buys from the seller, he sometimes uses fake lego, he doesn’t advertise very well what he is saying. He is very misleading, do not buy from this seller.

purchased the five pack of mystery custom clones and saw that some of them don't even come with helmets simply "helmets" printed on the mini-figure heads and figured if i order five i'll at least get one good one out of the DOZENS of custom ones with helmets as advertised in all pictures for the product and if the rest are the crap ones it would be fine, instead i receive all five terrible "custom clones" with gaudy colors chosen for the actual lego pieces so you cant even use them with other accessories to make normal looking figures

side note these were a present for my little cousin and if i had not checked what was inside i'm sure it would have been a great disappointment
