VERDICT

Should I use Brickfact?

Not disclosed - brickfact.com

Worth it. Buy if you are a serious LEGO collector or investor who wants collection values and retailer price comparison on your phone. Skip it if you own a handful of sets — Brickset or a spreadsheet covers that for free.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~12 usable public sources; several social results were irrelevant noise.

Best for

  • Serious LEGO collectors

Not for

  • Casual owners of a few sets — a spreadsheet is enough
  • US collectors wanting full US retail and store coverage
  • Multi-category collectors who also track cards or toys in one app
  • Resellers who need guaranteed-accurate sealed-set valuations

Gotchas - check before you buy

medium

Freemium: some features are paywalled — check what's gated before importing your whole collection

medium

Valuations can diverge from resale reality; one sealed set valued off expectations

medium

US retail coverage reportedly incomplete — verify your region's stores before trusting deal alerts
