The Bulk Brick Blog is a personal LEGO blog written by an AFOL (Zach AKA ZODIZACH), sharing a lifelong journey with the brick—from favorite childhood Christmas sets and summer builds with friends to turning a passion for LEGO into a growing business and community.
The blog features collector stories, Brick Market BST community updates, and real experiences running a LEGO resale operation, along with LEGO deal highlights from our eBay store, live Whatnot auctions, and Etsy shop. Whether you’re here for nostalgia, collecting tips, or great LEGO finds, The Bulk Brick Blog brings LEGO memories, markets, and minifigures together in one place.
About two years ago, my life looked very different.
At the time, I was working in a high-pressure private equity environment as a Chief Marketing Officer. My job was simple on paper but intense in reality: raise capital. Big capital. Over the course of about five years, I helped raise more than $250 million across the businesses I worked with—primarily funding real estate investment projects.
It was fast-paced, competitive, and relentless. When numbers didn’t hit, when campaigns didn’t convert, when deals slowed down, the pressure landed squarely on my shoulders. That kind of stress adds up quickly.
Then something happened that changed everything.
