| | Hi, I recently purchased The Tower Bridge and have noticed that the medium blue
4x8 plates are actually 2 different colour. I have shown pictures below that
outline this. The instructions say there are 18 4587271 plates, actually there
are two slightly darker plates. The lighter 16 say 4-35 on the bottom but the
darker 2 say 2-35. Can someone explain this? It is the same with some of the
other medium blue colours in the set as well.

Hi there
We just finished parting out 2 of these and there was not the difference you
have had. Could be they came from a different batch of plates;.
Everything we had was the right hand side of your photo. The left acutally looks
like dark azure or ish.

| | Hi ,
I use my phone alot and I also use Bricklink alot , but the site on phone isn't
that great , so please. Bricklink create a phone app of Bricklink , it would
be easier for phone users.
I hope the staff will see this and an official bricklink app will be created.
Thanks for reading

Voted no as this has supposedly been in development since the new owners took
over - there might be a version that will work on the phone with Bricklink XP
which is also under development, but that is not clear yet either.
According to the admins no development on the classic site is going on whilst
XP is being worked on and MP, the head of development said in his Brickwworld
presentation the future is XP, although the classic site will be maintained.

++++++++++++++++ 1 x 1,000,000!
Abso-frickin-lutely!
I have searched and searched and searched for an inventory management tool. I
have bought 2 and been refunded by their developers because they don't work
with my needs. I have tested out 5 others and rejected those as well. I'm
so frustrated by this problem I can't even talk about it without my blood
pressure spiking. It is the single largest headache in my business. It affects
my accounting, my sales, my purchases..... every aspect of my business.
|
We are in total agreement with that. We have developed our own in-house Access
system which deals with all aspects of running a store but doe not yet have full
inventory management in it. I am seriously thinking about putting one of our
developers on it but it should come from bBricklink who have access to the code
and database.

| | Can we please get a field in the my inventory page for a minimum stock level
for each item and can that please be used to trigger an automatic entry to a
dedicated wantlist as soon as the re-order level is hit?
So for example what I would want is say in red, I would like a minimum
inventory to be in my store of 30. I have 60 at present. An order comes through
for 40, and immediately that part in that colour gets added to my dedicated
wantlist for inventory.
The benefit would be that it is simply a wantlist that needs to be checked daily
and not inventory levels in brickstock or some other off-site inventory management
system. Also obviously easier to re-order as needed, especially for sellers like
me with very long lead-times.
Of course, the best would be if there could be a complete inventory management
on BL as to which this would just a small part of because I really find it frustrating
that inventory management on-site is essentially just the selling price and quantity
available, but... baby steps

We voted yes for this but it is unlikely to happen. This was asked for when the
new people took over Bricklink (2013). It was muted it was going to go into Sellers
tools but a series of speculative developments (Mosaic, Stud.io, MOC, plus the
up and coming XP)have prevented that from happening - the current one being XP.
In admins own words the classic site, other than fixing issues which are show
stoppers, is not seeing any developments major or minor whilst XP is being developed.
Serious inventory management is not a simple exercise and bearing in mind the
strengths of the current development team lie in other areas, it might be better
to 'hook' a proper inventory management system in but they are unlikely
to do that either.
In this day and age and all the talk about modernising the site, it is nonsense
that stores do not have inventory management at their disposal.

| | i have one suggestion that i think all would greatly appreciate. the function
capability to isolate and block individual sellers. what i mean is to make it
where if you have unsatisfactory service, you the buyer, can highlight the specific
seller and put him on your own block list. much like facebook. so that way, you
no longer see the seller when you search for future lego products. for the bad
shops will be filtered out and you wont see them. i just had an order that i
cancelled. i was instructed to go thru paypal and enter all their info in order
to buy their products. instead of going thru bricklink to get thru to paypal.
in other words, they wanted to circumvent the percentage you guys make when each
sell happens. so i refuse to let them circumvent and cut you out. pretty sure
they will give me a bad review. dont care. i believe in being honest. but i find
it frustrating that i have to write down each bad seller and have to review my
own list before buying. that is timeconsuming. appreciate it!

Voted no as this is already available. Just least favourite the store and you
will then no longer see them on searches etc once you mark your search preferences.
As for the Paypal it does appear you are talking about Paypal offsite v Paypal
on site. Lots and lots of stores still use Offsite rather than onsite, for a
variety of reasons so be careful you do not end up with no sellers to buy from.
Most established stores have links in their invoices which allows the buyer to
simply follow the link, make their payment and finalise the transaction.

We have managed to load our own image4 for this entry and after reading the very
lengthy threads previously posted on the listing policy for these we are happy
we understand - don't agree with it - but we understand it.

| | A bricklink user may be an A + buyer but a mediocre seller. I’m dealing with
a seller who’s had bad reviews, ranging from water and crush damage to an order
that was cancelled without explanation. But this user has stellar buyer reviews
that reflect his overall rating.
If there’s not already, there should be a way to filter between these two types
of reviews so that users aren’t stuck with a bad seller who’s being advertised
so positively from their reviews as a buyer.

Morning
There is already a way to do this. Click on the members feedback number which
takes you to his overall feedback page. Go to the bottom of the page and you
will see a comment which shows Seller or Buyer and click on either one - that
then shows the most recent feedback as seller or buyer - whichever you have chosen.
Not all that obvious but it works and is certainly a way to do what you have
asked.
Hope that helps and good luck with your order.
BTW - not everyone ships same day.

I would like to propose the idea to add the subnavigation to the homepage.
Alot of the times i want to look up the priceguide for a set and it always takes
some extra clicks.

The Catalog used to be on a separate Tab. Would be nice to have it back.

Agree with that +1
