    There are companies making bricks in much better quality than LEGO, and they are cheaper than LEGO. What kind of a margin is this supposed to be?

      My guy, you can’t drop these claims without telling us who! Lego are so expensive, I’d love some supposedly higher quality alternatives.

        Apologies, I would recommend checking out https://www.bluebrixx.com/en/ to get an impression of what other vendors offer. You can look up the brands and models on your local Amazon, Alibaba, your local brick dealer, … These prices are a lot lower that LEGO sets, so you might be able to try different vendors and see what’s on the market.

        Try looking for Mould King or Cada - those are usually the ones that are considered to deliver great quality for a reasonable price.

        It should be mentioned that both companies are gearing their products much more towards an older audience - so they aren’t really an alternative when talking about kids playsets.
