Golden standard for building blocks retailers

I'm really impressed that ChowBrick is able to combine both great price, especially for more expensive sets, in comparison to other retailers and deliver it to your doors in original box. The packaging is top tier, with plastic corners and A LOT of tape to properly secure it.I like when the price in the basket is showing exactly how much I'll need to pay. No additional fees, taxes or customs. Every price is final after providing delivery address in the basket. Some stores show great promotions but when checking out it can even double, but not in ChowBrick.I'm also glad that delivery dates are more or less accurate and transparent. They are not hiding that something will be shipped in two months or an item is not available. You can often even preorder it, sometimes with a small price cut.A room for improvement would be more accurate prices when browsing, as they sometimes change when providing address by up to $5. They are not always additional costs, sometimes the price decreases (!). But it would be nice to see it before adding it to the basket, especially for smaller sets that can have higher default price when compared to other retailers, but in the basket they are reduced and being cheaper or with similar price as the competition (and with a box!).Another thing on my wishlist would be having some sets in a bundles, or somehow "create your own box" kind of thing where you can select bunch of smaller sets into a bigger box to save on shipping and get a nice price cut, as smaller sets can be a bit expensive in comparison.In general I've bought some sets in the past from different retailers and without a doubt ChowBrick is the best experience I've had: prices, original packaging, transparent costs, fast and helpful support. Highly recommend and I'll definitely buy more in the future.Currently waiting for a certain falcon, shipped far far away :)
