This one? If it was for sale here at BrickLink it probably was as a custom lot
in someones store.

The kit was done by a LEGO Certified Professional but is not an official set
so it is not in the BL catalog.

This is exactly the kit I was talking about; the modular building. I've looked
everywhere, and tried all sorts of search keywords, to at least find a page where
it was previously sold, or whatever. I've come up short every time.

Ultimately, I'm looking for a parts list.

Oh, I'm positive my nose still works. I can smell it on myself when I've
smoked more than usual (just a few times a day), smell my babies' poopie
diapers, smell it on parts that I get coming in.

As a smoker, I agree.

I don't smoke inside my home (That's where I keep my stuff!). I can't
stand the smell of smoke on my things, if you can believe it.

It is in progress according to the roadmap:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2453

There was a fan made app for iOS which was advertised not long ago in the forum.

I use the fan app. I love it!

  I like to purchase printed tiles, but I am not interested in parts that have
stickers already applied. Currently, the category for "Tiles - Printed" has
a great number of parts which are not printed but actually a sticker.

You can sort these out yourself. Click on the Tile, Decorated category and you
will find 3,678 parts. Now, in the box at the top of the page which says "Find:"
type in -sticker and click the "Go!" button.

This will reduce the number of parts to 1,252 and all of them should be printed.

While your suggestion is incredibly helpful and correct, I do not believe it
negates the request. Unless you're savvy enough to know/figure out/remember
your advice, it sure would be a helpful change to the inventory categories!

  There was another thread today about customs/VAT on import, and I thought
I had suggested this in the past but I couldn't find it in searching the
suggestion history, so I'm submitting it now.


Quick & Easy:
1. Create a simple pop-up in the checkout process for international orders that
warns the buyer that they are fully responsible for any customs/duties/VAT/collection
fees etc that their country may charge for importing goods. Buyer must check
the "I acknowledge" button before being allowed to complete checkout.

Further Enhancements:
2. Store a table with the known thresholds for each country (e.g. £15 for UK,
€22 for Netherlands, etc). This data can be simply crowdsourced. Only display
the popup when the order value exceeds the threshold for the buyer's country.

3. Show the customs warning message in English AND the national language of the
buyer's country in the message box.

4. Add a database element to the orders table to record the timestamp that the
buyer acknowledged the customs warning. Display the Edit Order UI page for seller's
reference.

5. When a buyer is adding items to cart that exceed the customs threshold, display
a warning icon in the shopping cart indicator. Mouseover text on the warning
icon should show "This order may be subject to import duties for {buyer's
country}"

I am NOT suggesting that BL get in the business of managing customs and import
duties. This is simply a warning message to the buyer to educate them. The
goal of this suggestion is buyer satisfaction and reducing frustration/surprise
for buyers that aren't aware of their own country's rules.

-Jason

While I've personally had the luck of not running into the whole VATS issue
myself, this is a fantastic idea. Big yes from me.

-David

Agreed. And it's presented quite well, also.

You had me until you said, "cats." After that, this post lost all value.

Dogs rule.
Cats are evil seeds of demons.
