Big maybe on that. I thought everything came out of Illinois. Mos Eisley's
were 9+ pounds and came with the GWPs in the same box. The Orient Expresses
were 7+ and came in the "ready to ship" boxes that are custom sized,
but the the GWPs came separate. Where else do they ship from in the US?

| Hi all, thanks for the help in advance.
I am trying to upload an image of a piece that I wish to add to the catalogue
but all my imagaes are too big (bigger than the 800 x 600 pixel limit).
How should I go about getting a picture that I can upload?

| | Hello all! How much would you pay someone to sort a 12 gallon tub of Lego?
I buy Lego at about $2 - $4 a pound if that helps
|
How would you want it sorted by color or category or size?
|
Categories.
We sort into 19 different categories. The same ones that the Great Brick Lab
(GBL) uses to sort their Lego. I’ll post a link to the sorting sheet later.
|
Here's the link to the sorting sheet.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1809BBSWvmC6HrqpWcbQa-YP6alDrJOIe/view
They share it in the description for this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSr8117iiIQ&t=7s
|
I printed it out and sort 1 pound of Lego into the category’s and it took around
50 minutes so I’m think maybe $2 a pound. But maybe state that you have to finish
sorting the entire bin to get paid. I would also pull out category #16 just as
a per caution. Also it should not be snowing this time of year
|
I'm cackling, thank you XD

We definitely could have talked about it on the catalog panel if the catalog
panel had EVER been consulted about this.
|
The catalog panel was informed of this merge project months before it was announced
publicly. But the purpose of the panel is to bring community voice to the development
team, not contribute to catalog policy.
|
Unless there was a meeting I missed somehow, I do not recollect that we were
informed of this project or asked to give any input or suggestions. There was
a brief mention that there was a variant project but no details or timetables
were ever given. Considering that many people on the Panel were among those who
expressed surprise and dismay when this was all introduced, I would think that
those meetings would indeed have been an ideal place to breach the subject with
the members at large.
|
The only thing I recollect is talking about the need to tackle the variants on
the catalog, but nothing specific, I must have missed it too.
| |
| | We do address catalog policy when it comes up, but it's definitely a sideline
issue, as are all issues that relate to other BrickLink teams, like Marketplace
and Studio. Panel meetings are not the place to debate proposed variant merges.
The Forum is, and there was plenty of debate and even opportunity for more debate.
|
Perhaps it was not the place to discuss the exact specifics of each part being
looked at. But it would have been good to know how the project would be introduced
and carried out. We are supposed to be looking out for the community and sharing
out expertise after all.
Thanks,
~Jen

He only claims that we were informed of the project and that is the truth. We
were told that it existed.

I'm surprised 25 million wasn't a big topic of conversation in the forum.

It isn't the only proof. There is only one set that occurred after the underside
torso design changed and that is 10040. The black buckle torso has the modern
underside so there isn't much possibility it could be any other set.

I have had several GWP ship separately but it mainly depends on the set you order.
Bigger sets tend to be stored in their own shipping box in the warehouse.

“ For the first year after a set was originally released, inventories will only
be accepted from sealed set contents. Exceptions may be made for bundle packs,
certain accessory sets or service packs which only contain very few items, and
also for sets that were distributed in an open (non-sealed) packaging. If no
inventory was created during the first year, then any source may be used to create
an inventory.”

This really isn't a good solution because taxes are not being remitted to
Bricklink or whomever the taxes get remitted too. I understand it is the only
way for you with your local buyers currently. Bricklink does need to find a solution

TL;DR
There's no "Pay" or "Go" button in any invoice, except if
the seller put this link (button) himself in a specific invoice he sent you (which
can be completely manual or automatic).
|
Which the seller obviously did or the "GO" link would not have been there.
| |
In ULTRA short: simply check your order on BrickLink and see if there's THERE
a "Pay" button.
This is in your BrickLink account, My BL, Orders.
|
As I stated in my original post, there isn't any "PAY" button on
the invoice nor on the order details page NOR on the order itself!
| |
Use THIS button to pay for the order (if the amounts are expected), nothing
else.
|
I did mention, I have been buying on Bricklink for 20 years, well in 3 days it
will be 20 years, so I am NOT a rookie and I do know where to look to pay for
an order!

Same here. You get, what is it, about 6 weeks to pay it so there really shouldn't
be any excuse to missing it. Especially if going away, paying it before leaving
is sensible. You don't have to remember once you are back.

One feature that might be helpful here is the ability to pre-pay fees.

AutoPay set-up, as available with most other services today, might be nice too

|
More payment methods with less fees? Not something to argue with Though still
trying to understand "bring more revenue for them" Who's them,
and how would it do that for them?
|
Much more... with the extra planning development test deployment accounting costs
to save say 2% of 3%... they may start to save money in 5 or 10 years maybe?

Interesting. Thanks

| the only reasons I can think of that there wouldn't be a pay button is 1.
If the invoice wasn't sent (if they changed shipping prices after they sent
it it would then null the first invoice). 2. if its offsite payment or 3 its
paid.

| I have been buying on this site for 20 years. Never have I had a problem paying
for an order until now.
My seller sent me an invoice, I paid for the order, the seller contacted me and
told me he forgot to add in the shipping and that he would send another invoice
for that. Knowing the seller could not invoice me for just shipping, I told the
seller to hold on to the order for 1 week and I would place another order so
that they could then invoice me for the shipping for both orders and send them
both together.
To me this seemed like a no-brainer. It gets me a bunch of parts I need and I
get to save on shipping and the seller gets the shipping costs paid.
1 week goes by and I place my second order, the seller sends me an invoice for
the second order, but I think something must have been wrong with it because
when I clicked into the invoice there was a message at the top of it that the
invoice had been updated and it had a "Go" link.
Okay this is new; I have never seen an invoice with a "Go" link before.
I click on the link, and it takes me to another invoice that looks identical
to the first invoice. I read through the invoice, as I always do, make sure it
all looks correct, and go back up to the top to click on the "Pay" button
only there isn't a "Pay" button. I look on my orders page, no "pay"
button next to the order. I look on the order itself, no "Pay" button.
I reach out to the seller and inform them that there isn't a "Pay"
button for me to click on and did they make sure that the invoice was set for
Onsite PayPal?
The seller assured me it was set correctly.
The seller has not said 1 word to my message of there being no "Pay"
button to use nor how I am supposed to pay for the order.
I did send a second message to the seller 3 hours ago but still have not heard
anything back.
I did check the forum and the seller is not asking any questions regarding this
matter.
Can anyone explain why an invoice would be sent without a pay option?
Does it have to do with something the seller has not checked prior to sending
the invoice?
The 1st order I placed in their store was paid for through invoice and had the
"Pay" button, so I have no idea what has gone wrong this time.

I'm sure if I was "in Hiroshima when it happens" I would NOT ask
you to represent the bomber.
Something's doesn't seem to be coherent in what you wrote.
I'm also pretty sure LEGO isn't interested / doesn't allow
representations of actual war weapons and sceneries.
The concept of promoting peace while representing mass destruction objects is
a VERY complex approach, and I think you're far from this comprehension /
distance which would be required.
I'm 100% sure I'm NOT interested in this "project".

my options here? Should I just give them negative feedback and try to get my

This is super Surprising because they had a very high Sale Count with mostly

How would you want it sorted by color or category or size?

Categories.
We sort into 19 different categories. The same ones that the Great Brick Lab
(GBL) uses to sort their Lego. I’ll post a link to the sorting sheet later.

Here's the link to the sorting sheet.

I printed it out and sort 1 pound of Lego into the category’s and it took around
50 minutes so I’m think maybe $2 a pound. But maybe state that you have to finish
sorting the entire bin to get paid. I would also pull out category #16 just as
a per caution. Also it should not be snowing this time of year

This can only be fixed by replacing the minifigure in the set inventory. But
the correct minifigure (with 973pb0280c01) must first be added to the catalog.

If DeJoy has his way, that is exactly what will happen. Then his corporate buddies
can sweep in and pick up overblown federal contracts taking dollars out of the
general population and putting it into the pockets of shareholders; all the while
blaming the federal government for mismanagement of federal dollars, continuing
to reduce the middle class, raise prices, blame the population for their lack
of drive and work ethic, while rigging the system so only the 1% can succeed;
while the cult of personality waves the flag, lies with his hand on the good
book and distracts the gullible by spouting Putin's talking points and prosthelytizing
about freedumbs.

have improved service. Package processing during the holidays has been great
the last few years after the pandemic meltdown.
But this was a disaster, my USPS rep as usual had no answers. I see now not even
a US Senator could get his answers without dragging Mr. Dejoy Infront of a committee.

Because that would directly impact their own sales. Myself and many others focus
solely on new sets and new set part outs, buying multiple copies of high dollar
sets. How many $200, $400, $600+ sets do regular consumers (or BL buyers without
a store) buy per year, and how many do small rinky dink stores like me - or
extremely large stores not like me - buy per month? I'd argue that an enthusiastic

Indispensable and profitable are two different things. Plus how many people
place an order for 50 lots of discontinued parts? Think of at least five of
unavailable parts you're trying to find and go look at the sales history
of it. At best it's current for sale average is probably a couple of bucks
and at least three of those probably have an outlier that's ~50% below the
average. From the sounds of it, you're going to buy from the cheapest store,
and they made "a coupl'a bucks". That's not running a business,
that's running a charity without the benefits of 501c status.

I wouldn't. I'd cherry pick the figures, pick any obvious decent / expensive
parts and sell the rest as bulk.

Why would LEGO care whether any third-party stores (i.e. competitors of LEGO's
PaB website) close down?
Also, third-party stores would still be indispensable, because there are so many
parts that are unavailable from the PaB website.

When taking over bricklink, LEGO claimed they wouldn't interfere with the
marketplace, implying they wouldn't compete with sellers. If they want to
compete with sellers, then many sellers will leave and move to the independent
marketplace.
They would also need to behave like other BL sellers. I'd leave them negative
feedback unless they improved their order turn around times.

Wasn't there that whole controversy with that guy who claimed to have used
it in a "moc on top of a stud so therefore it was useful" even though
it cannot fit on top of a stud 
|
32064b could go on a hollow stud. I would have spoken up on it, but I didn't
realize it was on the block.
We definitely could have talked about it on the catalog panel if the catalog
panel had EVER been consulted about this.
|
The catalog panel was informed of this merge project months before it was announced
publicly. But the purpose of the panel is to bring community voice to the development
team, not contribute to catalog policy.
We do address catalog policy when it comes up, but it's definitely a sideline
issue, as are all issues that relate to other BrickLink teams, like Marketplace
and Studio. Panel meetings are not the place to debate proposed variant merges.
The Forum is, and there was plenty of debate and even opportunity for more debate.
| | There went a double handful of my catalog work and all the give-a-darn that I
had stockpiled. I think I'll go touch grass and see if it is everything
people talk it up to be.
|
We knew the hardest thing about this project was having to undo some work that
the community had done. The important thing moving forward, though, is that no
one is going to keep investing in that handful of variants that we removed. This
will also force us to consider more closely the addition of variants in the future,
to avoid this happening again.
And, like I said clearly before, we have a complete record of all modern inventory
change requests. They are all preserved in the Forum for those that want to see
what you discovered in your sealed sets. And the vast majority of your work is
still completely intact and helping other members, so let's not paint this
as a total loss.

It's been on the list since day one. The purpose was to remove distinctions
based on the shape of the axle hole.
32064c was renamed to 32064a and was retained.

Lego owns Bricklink, and Bricklink is strictly third-party sellers; the site
would die and Lego would lose money on their investment & whatnot
If you want to source parts from PAB and Bricklink, use BrickHunter, a Chrome
extension that lets you upload a wanted list & auto-selects parts from PAB and
shows what you would need to get from Bricklink if parts are unavailable or retired
|
Yes, BH is amazing, and I often use it. But it adds another layer of complexity
and another step in the process.
|
Ever order from PAB? Enjoy your bricks 2-3 months later.
|
For standard bricks but yah it’s crazy.
