BrickLink is the largest online marketplace for reselling Lego products. Its website also offers resources for Lego fans, including an extensive catalog of products and parts and community forums.[1]
History
BrickLink was founded by Dan Jezek, who had made it after other online sellers were impressed by the website he made for his own Lego store. Originally named BrickBay, the site started operation on 19 June 2000. After online retailer eBay challenged the use of "Bay" in the name, it was renamed BrickLink in 2002.[2]
In 2010, Jezek died suddenly,[3] and his mother Eliska Jezkova succeeded him as CEO. In 2013, the site was acquired by Nexon founder and CEO Kim Jung-ju, who transferred its assets into BrickLink Limited, a Hong Kong-based company.
