BrickLink Discussion Forum

Goodday everyone,

I bought a large amount of Lego. Some are still partially assembled, see the
photos.

Can anyone tell me which set this is from?

I can then look for instructions and make it complete again.

Greetings Henk

Hi,

I am trying to complete my old Lego sets that are mostly from the 1980s, and
created several wanted lists (1 per set) in order to buy the missing parts.

Question:
How can I be sure that I am buying the (era)correct part?

Example: set "6951 Robot Command Center" from 1984 is missing 1x "Brick,
Round 2 x 2 with Axle Hole" = part 3941 in White.
However, the new part has a 'bottom ring' visible and the original parts
did not have that
(https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3941&C=1#T=C&C=1).

So when using the 'buy all' option or selection all wanted lists that
I want to buy parts for, how do I know I get the correct part and not the newer
version?

Or has this option fully disappeared from Bricklink now?
In that case: what parts-buying site does still make the distinction between
versions of a part?

Many thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
Menno

All, thank you for your helpful replies!

Not really. There are loads of minor or unimportant variations that have never
been individually catalogued, just mentioned in notes.

Thank you all for the helpful comments.

I was under the impression that as there is a clear photo of the four different
variations AND there are an equal number of different Item Numbers, they should
be (have been) easy distinguishable...
Also, visually they are different - try to combine original era ones with new
ones and see how (awful) it looks.

Again, all thanks for your replies!

I'm helping my mom create a MOC for the prison she works in. We have a good
supply of minifigs of yellow/white skin color, but not very many of darker skin
colors.

When I look at bricklink stores I can sort of find heads that suit the purpose,
but what about hands?

Should I be looking for complete minifigs? Or can is it best to find some shop
that has many heads and "torso assemblies" to get the hands I need?

This is my first time dipping into the secondary market of minifigs, so I feel
like I'm in way over my head even for a relatively simple task.

Start with looking at the minifigs from this set to establish some of the available
skin tone colours to search for:-

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?S=40634-1&viewItemType=M

It contains quite a few different skin tone heads with matching hands. If you
look at the part breakdown of the minifigs you will find the torsos are quite
reasonably priced even if only buying for the hands themselves but once you've
established the colour hands you need to match your heads you can also buy them
separately:-

Welcome to bricklink!
The best way may to be to do some searches like “medium nougat head”, “reddish
brown head”, etc and look thru the options looking at ones that look right to
you and are in your budget then adding them to a wanted list, then for the hands
go to the hand page and choose the colours you want and qty and add them to the
same wanted list. Then navigate to your wanted list and choose buy all and look
thru the options of who has the most for sale that you want

Hi all, fairly noob here!

when i go to a store and pick one of my wish lists, add min QTY, add to basket,
it then adds a min qty to both new and used parts effectively adding double what
i need to the basket. Tell me what i am doing wrong please!

Thanks!

Hi,

Min/Max pick all the matches, all the lines shown in the search.

So if one line in you Wanted List matches several lots in the shop, Min/Max will
add the min/max quantity for ALL of them.

That works if the Condition is Any: it matches both New and Used lots.
But it also works that way for the colour Not Applicable: it matches all the
colours in the store.

One may consider that a bug, or a feature. 🤷‍♂️

I am saying that I have a single part, say 2x4 Brick, in my want list with N/A
color and quantity 300. When I do a search it chooses the same color for all
the quantity. I was wondering if there was a way to search for a store that might
have 50 each of red, white, yellow, green, purple, and pink to total the 300
needed. the 300 can be a mix of any number of colors for my purpose. I also found
that if I choose N/A in the search it give me only 1 result.

Then it’s “even more normal.” It’s one unique lot and the search/buy algos treats
lots, not parts.

You can’t even distribute the 300 into 6 wanted lists as the search/buy algorithm
combines the lots.

You can only do that manually:
a. exclude them from the search and check in the stores found for the other parts,
b. or make multiple lots in actual colours.

I’d go for (a) if the parts are common and easy to find, and for (b) if they
are more difficult to find or if I want them in high quantities (so that search/Auto-select
can really find cheap parts and not choose them randomly and badly).

I am making a MOC that has a lot of internal bricks that will not be seen. In
my want list I choose not applicable for the pieces. When I go to do a search
it chooses that part all as one color.

Are you saying:
1. You have one WL, with part A & part B (& …) in colour N/A and BL chooses the
same colour for all the parts.
2. You have multiple WL, with part A in colour N/A in both, and BL chooses one
colour for all the WLs.

(1) is just “bad luck.” The algorithm chooses different colours for me.

(2) is “normal”: the lots are combined for the search.

Is there any way to set this up to use mixed colors? Also is there a way to search
for a store that has a certain amount of a specific part across all colors?

Well, considering we (at least I) have no idea how the colours to fulfill N/A
are chosen¹, I’d encourage you to exclude the N/A lots from your searches / for
Auto-select, and to only look for them once you have candidate stores for the
rest of your parts.
(You can do that:
— by not selecting them in your WL before hiting Buy All (which will then be
“Buy N Selected,”
— or by moving the parts to another WL,
— or using the Wanted Items tab on the left of the Buy page.)

¹ A simple test shows it’s not the cheapest colour in the store. It’s not the
cheapest in the Price Guide. It’s not the lot with the highest quantity in the
store. It’s not the oldest in the store. It seems totally random! The only
good thing is that it’s not the most expensive either!

No, you can add the same part in multiple colors to your Wantlist.

Hi,

It’s called “part out.” There’s a link to do just that on the set’s page (below
the “Add to my WL” link).
Or you can use the “Part Out” entry in the Want menu (white heart-shaped icon).

But if you only want the part out price, there’s the part out value here: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp
(Market | Price Guide).

Brilliant!! Thank you 🙏☺️

Add in a check box to the left of Wishlist?

Viewed:

Topic:

I love the BL search, but i was wondering if we can get a check mark box to the
left of Wishlist heart?
Once we order the part, we can place a check or x in the box to prevent re-ordering
the same parts multiple times. I am trying to complete 6 sets at the same time
to save on shipping, but have found myself ordering the same part several times.
I understand I can do a better job of looking, but a check box would be useful.

The other item I wish to ask for, is to have a line item on the final order (what
we see when we click on the order number) is for a line to state which set this
part ordered came from, similar to the wishlist. or we can add in the set numbers
under the lego item number, prior to making payment. This would allow a better
end user experience.

Any way to upvote this or bring this to the attention of the creators?

Can you help me identify these baby doe's, so I can return them to their
rightful sets? Both heads are clearly marked LEGO both inside of the hollow
stud and inside the head itself. The swaddling blankets were already on them
and although they fit well, are not Logo'd at least that I can find, so they
may/may not be LEGO.

Probably fake, the prints on the faces don't look right.

Many of what you would call fakes are custom printing on real Lego parts. The
heads aren't fakes as you call them but are custom printed.

Then he'll discover Availability, Quantity, Shipping, Minimum Buy, Taxes,

Given the nature of my business, treating each Lego piece of identical color

Could you please advise if there's a way to access inventories of individual
stores through the API for the purposes mentioned above? If there are specific
endpoints or permissions required, I would appreciate detailed guidance on how
to proceed. My goal is to conduct this analysis with the utmost respect for privacy

Hello BrickLink Community,

I am reaching out to gather some information regarding API access for consumers.
I understand that the API is typically a feature reserved for sellers, but I
was wondering if there is a way for consumers to also gain API access? My goal
is to query different shops and get all available details for each piece that
is available for sale.

If direct API access is not available for consumers, could anyone advise if there
is an alternative method or tool within BrickLink that allows viewing of comprehensive
inventories across all stores?

I'm looking to explore the full range of available pieces on the platform
and any guidance on how to achieve this would be greatly appreciated. I am sure
that both new and veteran members could benefit from the shared knowledge on
this topic.

Thank you in advance for your help and insights!

Best regards,

There is already the online wants list tool for buyers. A downside of making
the API available for all and anyone is that it would bring it to a halt if loads
of people were using it to harvest sales and availability data every day to do
private offline analysis without any real benefit to the site.
