Are you a stickler for stickers? I can't stand 'em. I don't put them on my builds and I try to price them low enough in my store that they'll practically waltz out on their own. So when I was offered store trade for my stickers I was ecstatic. Forum constant "popsicle" announced a deal to purchase others' stickers for store credit. I think he's just trying to corner the market. Fine with me. I practically threw mine out the door in his direction and didn't have to wait much longer for a store coupon to arrive.

Recommendation
I like Cory and his store. Much of his stuff is from brand new parted out sets, even sets that are several years old. Need a 1x2 tile with a sock on it? New? He's got it.
However I'm not very fond of the coupons that expire quickly or the higher store minimum. While it's likely that I'll get to his store on a Wanted List notification, coupon, or sale, I likely will not be able to meet his minimum. Not that I make low orders much it's just that I had to finally throw parts into my cart that I intended to resell. Bulk quantities are abundant so if you need 50 or 100 of something then you might be in luck. And the service is definitely tops.
