|
| Hello.
In Spain, and in many other countries, there are different regions with different
shipping rates. In spain at least, we have two sets of islands, where shipping
is usually different (more expensive) than to mainland spain.
As for now, I can't set it up for automatic checkout, and i just need to
eat the cost difference if i get an order from there, but it would be nice if
it could be added.
Thank you

| It would be helpful if you could set the colour of items in a Wanted List to
"I don't care" or "any".
Sometimes you want to build something but really don't care what colour the
pieces are; e.g. an internal structure or some sort of technic mechanism; you
just want them to be as cheap as possible.
With this option when you searched stores for parts it would ignore colour, but
still select based on cost and volume etc.

Just set the color to "Not Applicable" will do the trick.

Perhaps you can change the way you work, because in my routine this is absolutely
no problem, and it's unlikely that Bricklink will change or upgrade anything.
|
In what way? For instance tonight I parted out three copies of two different
sets, which is done by sorting all the parts from each set into their individual
lots and then packing them away using the remarks system to tell me which drawers
the lots go into.
Is there an easier way than going through the whole process each time for each
unique set you part out? If there is I've been wasting a lot of time over
the past three years. I can't see why there can't be a function that
will allow adding multiple sets of multiple quantities to inventory at once without
having to rely on third party applications given there are almost always common
lots contained in different sets. The BrickLink catalogue knows what is contained
in each set, so surely it's just a simple matter of combining set inventories
much like it does when you part multiple quantities of the same set. In regards
to someone's comments on errors, what possible additional errors would occur
that don't already, besides possibly knowing which set any discrepancy came
from? In any case it's pretty simple to amend what you're putting into
inventory if you have more or less of something than what the BrickLink catalogue
suggests you should have.

Aha, it's because of remark based sorting.. I've never tried it and never
know how it really works. I always assumed people use software to generate the
locations or something because it seems like an awful lot of work to do it
manually. And I think you must be able to view where the part currently is located,
in case you already have it in you inventory... I'm sure there are tutorials
about this, since it's the first time I see this request, there must be a
work around.

The visitor counter is totally flawed and should not be used as an indicator
of visitors.

Buggy counter - because it is not supposed to increment when you are logged in
and visit your own store. From: https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=169
| If you press and hold the F5 Ker whilst in your store, or anyone
else does, you can make the counter jump horrendously.
We went from 60000 visitors a long time ago to 250,0000 overnight and you know
that cannot be real.
We had our web designer deal with this and now use our own counter, which many
other people also do.
It is a shame really as it appears Bricklink use Google analytics and could provide
much better information but to date have not seen this as important.
Good luck with your suggestion but without a radical change to the way the Bricklink
one currently works it is not helpful information.

I'm very new to selling, but a web developer myself, so any tips welcome.
Do you just embed one into your terms/splash page?

That is the normal way, but to be honest I amm not sure how our guy did it. Will
ask him and repost.
It would be so much better if Bricklink would open up Analytics and let us all
do and see what we want.
