Why is it that when a part hits the floor it disappears? It is amazing how many
pieces I have lost when a part hits the floor. Is there any science behind this?
Could I be the only one?

Taking in to consideration the recent thread about accidentally inflating prices,
I spent some time looking at the most desirable parts from a set I'm preparing
to part out 5x of. Half the set was adjusted up, half the set was adjusted down
from the 6 month average.

Then I decided I wanted to give one of them to someone as a gift. So is there
a hack in Brickstore to adjust the quantities down by 20%, or should I just upload
5 and then upload another one at -1?

It's not the end of the world if it's too much of a PITA.

Hi all

Received an order the other day, and within 10 minutes the customer cancelled.
Fair enough, no problem - I cancelled the order.

Today had a message from the "Buyer" to say I had sent them a wrong part
- black instead of dark Bluish Grey.

Good try - but no cigar

Have to be alert in this game !!

Total solar eclipse will take place at the Moon's ascending node, that is
where the Moon crosses the ecliptic from south to north, on Monday the 8th. In
two days across the North America continent

For the pathway that will allow you to experience the event more fully across
North America, check online. Nasa among others, offers a fun accounting.

I should have read the comments/feedback before buying from this one seller.
He left me a negative feedback after I left him a neutral one. Most of the comments
about him concerned his high price of shipping . My feedback to him was about
stuffing over 100 in two snack sized baggies. I tried talking to him but he is
very belligerent. Why does Bricklink still allow him to have a store

Bricklink's Studio parts update for the new 2024 pieces came with some bugs.
The new parts added for the April 2024 update don't snap together properly
(or at all) with the current parts in the program.

Bricklink implemented a suggestion!!!

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=816619

on item listing pages you can now report the item for sale! when you click on
it, it brings you to the report item for sale page with the lot number already
filled out.

Now the question is. has this already been a feature for a long time and I never
noticed it or is it indeed a new feature?

Two fortresses stand next to each other raging wars. The ketchup gang stands
guard in their castle biding time sorting and packing Lego parts. The mustard
clan is their ruthless enemy who will do anything to stay on top.

ENFIELD, Conn. - April 1, 2024 - Announcing BrickLink Dating™

After the failure of its Trionicles line, the Lego Group (TLG) decided to throw
its hat into the ring of online dating. "And where better than BrickLink,
our site for new and used Lego™ parts?" asked Susan Williams, head of TLG's
Consumer Services division since 1978. "Prospective dating partners will
have the opportunity to list themselves as 'New' or 'Used'",
corresponding to BrickLink's most general category. Ms. Williams did add,
however, that some of the best-known features of BrickLink will be missing from
BrickLink Dating™. "We have no plans at the moment to implement any sort
of color scheme."

what is your favorite bootleg toy, action figure, movie, or video game? post
pics! My personal favorite would have to be the Speclatron toy line from 1984.
These most definitely qualify as best-worst . these were made as a bootleg
to Mattel's Masters of the Universe toy line from 1982. they featured gaudy
color schemes, translucent torsos with water and glitter in them, and by pressing
a small button in the back, the water and glitter would swish around, and cause
"Magic action"

LOL these are probably the worst! the main villain was named Dethlor, and was
the leader of the evil space aliens, and the hero's name was simply Hero,
obviously a knock off of He-Man. the reason why Dethlor is significant however,
he sometimes uses 1984 Man-E-Face's blaster accessory from the Masters of
The universe line. in a silver or blue color. the figures are extremely rare
and are worth a fortune believe it or not!

Post your favorites below!
-Cheers Cy Kill's Garage

What do you think about this?

Frankly, as a LEGO New parts seller I'm very concerned, that'll make
things sooo complicated, to say the least

We have enough international members in here, maybe you all can help…

Long story short, I can’t open a bank account in Germany until I have an address
which is a few years off. Ideally it’s with Commerzbank since most of my transfers
are to a corporation that banks there too and I like to keep things simple.
I send about €15,000 over every year and it seems like every time I go to do
it the conversion rate drops.

Like around November the conversion was at .96 and then it dropped to .92 by
the time I did the transfer. Somebody suggested I use Wise. But can I purchase
euro and keep them in an account or can you only transfers? I’d prefer to buy
and hold when rates are favorable.

I recently started using Bricksync and it works well however the "blmaster
on/off" option confuses me a little. it says you're supposed to never
change your inventory and stuff unless that mode is on and when you are done
you then turn it off however nothing seems to "break" if I change/add
things without turning it on and then later turn it on and off to cycle it to
process any changes I made. So my question is, am I missing something important?
I dont make it a habit to add stuff unless it's on but want to know if I'm
misunderstanding and it doesn't make a big difference if you add stuff without
turning it on or what.
