LEGO Part-Out Value Calculator
Estimate what a set will actually net you after fees and reality, not just BrickLink guide price. Enter a few numbers and get a buy or skip verdict.
Parting out is one of the most reliable ways to turn a single LEGO set into more than you paid for it, but only if you run the numbers first. A $60 set might contain $140 of parts at BrickLink guide price, yet guide price and money in your pocket are two very different figures. Marketplace fees, payment processing, and the long tail of slow pieces you never quite sell all eat into that headline number.
This calculator does the honest version of the math. Enter a set's part-out value, your all-in cost, and a realistic capture rate, and it estimates your true net, profit, and return multiple, then gives a buy or skip verdict. New to the idea? Start with how to read a part-out value before you buy.
Tip: pull your part-out value from BrickLink's Part Out Value tool using the last 6 months of sold prices, not "currently for sale."
