Crowds gathered in Long Eaton this morning, March 18, as a brand new Lego resale store opened its doors. Barn Dawg Store in the Market Place welcomed its first customers on Saturday, as a crowd of around fifty people queued from 10am.
The business first began online at the beginning of lockdown in 2020 by Barney Nockolds. The 27-year-old turned his passion for Lego into a business where he started to collect and restore old Lego and trade them online.
After moving to Long Eaton in December last year, Barney decided to open his first physical store, along with his partner, Nadia Boiko. Barney said: “It’s been really good, there was a crowd of people and the mayor was here at the opening, he cut the ribbon and made a speech.
