Well, apparently, it’s BL’s fault to let phishers claim they are BrickLink, because
they are like “hawkers out front of your brick-and-mortar shop all day handing
out flyers to customers” and that you can chase by waving your broom in their
general direction 🤷‍♂️

That comment seems to have gotten gotten under your skin. Why not reply to the
person who made it rather than griping about it to someone else almost a week
later? Unfortunately, as you know, you have misrepresented what I said. That
comment was about forum spammers, not phishers. You are usually so pedantic;
I’m surprised you would overlook such an important distinction.🤷‍♂️

I am astonished that people could think they would never fall for any type of
scam, especially those that don’t even operate a store here. Most people are
vigilant, but being constantly on guard leads to fatigue. Bad actors only have
to be successful ONCE. It costs them next to nothing to make thousands upon
thousands of attempts, and they will catch you the one time your guard slips
a little. But we have to be successful against EVERY attempt they make and it
costs us of time and energy to do that.

It’s easy to blame the victim until you become one. A major part of being vigilant
is being humble enough to recognize that you too could become a victim.

Greetings all,

The spammer emails continue and are now a daily basis. See attached image as
it shows the incorrect email.

@BrickLink: can you please put a banner on the landing page to at least warn
users of this issue.

I'm curious though, is this being done to any/all users of BL or is this
subjective to sellers.

Brian

After reading about these, I checked my spam folder and Google has flagged them
all as spam and removed them from the inbox.

There maybe things I (we) don't care for about Google but they do an excellent
job of screening junk e-mail.

Well, if the account had suspicious activity, then BL saw them, blocked them,
and contacted the real owners. Not necessarily easy to do for some of them who
had their e-mail compromised too (same password 🙄), but I know BL also tried
other ways and managed to reach and verify them.

It's a good question, Brian.

We've had three or four suggestions implemented over the years. The latest
of ours was in response to another topic foisted upon the membership:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1244764

I fight to keep this particular feature alive here on BL, and have for years.
Though I'll not stop fighting for the idea of membership involvement, I will
lose the battle if the idea is not maintained and kept strong within the membership
itself. And that idea can't endure if our voices are not loud enough to be
heard at distance

This feature along with the BL catalog, are at the focal
point of this vital sentiment that joins admin with membership, imho.

Does anyone know if BL now have to automatically report your sales to the HMRC

It's not an issue for us as we have an accountant and report all our revenue
through them anyway so we paying the right amount of tax. Just wondering if BL
was also reporting as well though?

They should be reporting it in January 2025, like other sites should. Even if
a public announced procedure is not in place right now, they already have all
the tools they need to do it (number of orders and total sales volume) for 2024.
I imagine it is easiest to assume that they will report this at the end of the
year as they should be doing.

What kind of videos should I make about my store for my youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/@brickranger2599
to get more customers?

From experience as a seller, I've found the best way to increase the number
of sales in my store is to increase the stock levels in my store. I recently
acquired a 40kg lot of Lego and have been working away at listing it through
my spare time. The uptick in my store inventory has directly translated to an
uptick in sales, as my store now matches with more wanted lists and people can
get more of what they want in the one place.

Equally, as a buyer, what attracts me to a store when I'm looking to purchase
parts is availability of all (or as many of) the parts I'm looking for at
that time, which often means it's a larger store of 100k+ parts that I end
up purchasing from. Smaller stores have their place, but they usually need to
fulfil some kind of niche or specialist market to really attract custom.

Thanks for the advice. I’ll just continue adding inventory so more customers
will come.

as I sell via multiple platforms. Would also come with the storage containers
I use (mostly the really useful storage box brand of various sizes and x2 multi
draw units) I can get photos to give an idea of them.
Reason for the sell up is I'm moving abroad and it's not worth shipping
it all over to me.
Anyone feel free to message me if your interested.
Thanks

You can only sell what is in your store, so it all needs to be listed for sale
in the store even if it is just a custom bulk lot with a photo.

Hello!

Thank you very much for taking the time to do this archive! It will be very useful!

One question... I was about to upload in my inventory the part 52394, but then
I notice that this is an alternate item of 4588. I went then to check if it was
included in the archive, out of curiosity, but it is not.

I do not have the part 4588, but from what I see from BL, seems to be pretty
much the same (maybe slightly different on the bottom-inside?).

Then, my question, the BL merge will affect only to mold variants (like 4032
and 4032b, which are clearly differentiate so far in the catalog), which can
have some differences, but part variants (like 4588-52394, which doesnt say much)
are not affected as they are just pretty much the same?

I am a bit confused here... sorry if it is obvious, but hope the question is
understood

Thanks!

Hi!
To the best of my knowledge 4032 isn’t being merged so it’s not on this list.
This list is specifically made up of parts form the February merge and no others
at this point
Hope this helps!

After many hours of work, I would like to present the "Bricklink Archive".

If you navigate to this page

https://www.bricklink.com/aboutMe.asp?u=Nubs_Select&pageID=59816

or if you click the "ME" icon next to my feedback brick and then click
on the archive link on that page you will arrive at the same page.

On this page are links presented for all of the parts that were either planned
for the merge for February or ones that might be merged later. Yes, some on this
list are ones that aren't being merged but I'll leave them on the list
for now at least until it all dies down and I've confirmed that they will
not be affected.

Also included is a link to the list of known head types on bricklink prior to
the merge for each individual figure. if post-merge you wanted to see if

Minifig No: poc012 Name: Captain Jack Sparrow Skeleton

poc012 (Inv) Captain Jack Sparrow Skeleton
Minifigures: Pirates of the Caribbean

was known to have both blocked and hollow stud heads then you'll find it
on that list. same for every single other figure that used 3626 heads on bricklink.
(vented were not separated out and yes I know bricklinks knowledge of blocked/hollow
was incomplete but if bricklink had it known, then for most of those it is recorded.)

The Smooth slopes and frosted bricks were not archived. but if you're reading
this shortly after it was posted and want to archive them you still have time.

If you see I missed any (excluding patterned parts, frosted, and smooth) feel
free to let me know asap and I can add them to the list but I'm pretty sure
I have them all. Please note some links may behave funny on the archive site
but I am working on fixing them but it has a 1 hour cool down so it takes a while.

Some updates

1. Some broken page links were fixed. For example, if you went to 32064 and clicked
on the "Item Appears In" minifigures link it would say page not found.
this has been corrected for multiple links so everything should work now.

2. Fixed some pages where images just didn't appear for long period of time
and would show "Image Error" for a while before loading the proper image.

3. Fixed multiple pages where the "For Sale, Color Info and Price Guide"
tabs were not saved

4. Fixed it so that by default the loaded page always has the "Color Info"
tab selected as prior some would have either the items for sale or price guide
as default. The exception to this is the 2 Iron Golem figures which go to the
Minifigures inventory instead as they dont have a "Color Info" tab

5. Fixed the wrong link being present for 4032b (previously it pointed to 46212
but has been fixed to point to 4032b)

6. Fixed an issue where 6 parts somehow had duplicate entries on the list

7. Updated list to reflect the sections of parts. for example, all "teeth"
parts are now in a section

If you find any other broken links or similar please let me know ASAP so I can
fix them before the items are merged

(please note some pages have the header or footer styles messed up but I am trying
to fix this)

Only one problem. The links don’t seem to work. Click on 4079b, it says there
was one set in Lime. Click on Lime, and you get an error page?

Unfortunately, that is a limitation. in order to save that I'd have to save
hundreds or thousands more pages (1 for each color combination for each item)
which I didn't have time for. the best way would be to scroll down the page
to Lime in order to see it. In short, the jump to feature isn't saved but
you can still scroll down or "ctrl f" and type in lime and it should
do the same. Glad I could help!

Ive now updated the page with a note to explain this. Thankyou for bringing it
to my attention!

Quit Facebook. It's a Skinner box

Didn't know, yes, it's its perfect description, thank you

(sauce: Wikipedia)

Skinner created the operant conditioning chamber as a variation of the puzzle
box originally created by Edward Thorndike. While Skinner's early studies
were done using rats, he later moved on to study pigeons. The operant conditioning
chamber may be used to observe or manipulate behaviour. An animal is placed in
the box where it must learn to activate levers or respond to light or sound stimuli
for reward. The reward may be food or the removal of noxious stimuli such as
a loud alarm. The chamber is used to test specific hypotheses in a controlled
setting.
