| Can anybody can clarify why it take soo long for the inventory of a set to be
approve.
For doing sales,we need this inventory to be approve quickly.
Ex:75203 is been out for a month and other site have all inventory done.
I think with the sales amount that past here,we should expect a little bit of
service.
We are paying 3% on every sales and i think we should received a minimum of service.
Please don't reply its a voluntary work that user are doing the inventory.It
should not be voluntary first of all.This site is doing money.With the number
of set that coming out every month ,i think somebody should be payed and doing
this full time.
I just resign myself to spend a hour to enter and verify that set with brickstock.

Man. And that's AFTER whatever time it took you to type out this question
that you specifically do not want the answer to.

That one is almost complete. One of our actual Inventory Admins did the inventory.
He just lacks entering the extras. But he lives in Poland and is probably in
bed now.

something else to do on a Saturday night

| Admins are not real humans, so they have nothing better to do than work on BL
24/7. Duh!
Being a volunteer inventory admin has to be the worst. Not only are you expected
to give your time for free, but also spend $1000's per year on new sets at
MSRP to do inventories.
Oh, and to the OP: 3% fees is the exact same I paid when I started selling here
in 2003. Please find me another company that you can say the same about. Ebay
was 10% the last time I sold something.

I would say like every time a user is complaining of something here there always
someone who come back with poor argument.I was complaining of time it take to
valid inventory of a set and now your almost to tell me to go somewhere else
to sell.I don't known you,you are a seller and doesn't look like a admin
on that site.
If you do the inventory for free its your problem.Don't come here to complain
to me your doing it wrong because your doing it for free.
I invest a lot of money in my business every month and i give a really good service
to my customer but i expect the same from my providers.If you are in the process
of doing inventory for BL you should treat me like a customer and not telling
me to go sell somewhere else.That's call arrogance.
By the way BO is charging 2.5% but service is much better then here.Admin threat
you like a customer not like a competitor.Don't worry i already have a account
there.
For all the above answers,there is none from a real admin.That's the problem
on BL.
Nobody answer for anything on this site

At the end of the day, you don't what you are paying your 3% fee to Bricklink
for and it doesn't include a professional having the inventories ready on
Day 1. It just isn't part of the deal. And you are still here because there
is something about Bricklink that you still prefer. I have never used BrickOwl,
so I have no idea, but I expect it is the larger customer base that Bricklink
brings to you.
If you just need to bellyache, that's totally fine with me.

It is because we are not doing well at soliciting community contributions.

|
The three major sites I'm aware of which provide inventories are Brickset,
Rebrickable, and Brick Owl.
All three sites have inventories for this set. The official part count of the
set is 255 parts. For each site, here are the number of parts they list in the
set as of right now:
Brickset: 248 parts
Brick Owl: 251 parts
Rebrickable: 248 parts
We make take longer on BrickLink, but when we're finished you'll have
an inventory which includes the correct number of parts.

|
You're right about that. I apologize that we still haven't achieved
the ability to have complete, accurate inventories available on the day the set
is released. When you require that new inventories be created from sealed set
contents (as we do now) and after that you have people like me double-checking
the work to ensure its accuracy, then there is unavoidable delay. Our goal is
to reduce that delay as much as possible.
I will say that the delay has gotten much better within the last year and we
hope to continue to improve.

I agree that people who take the time to add inventories to the website should
be compensated for their efforts in some way.

I've never used BrickStock, so I don't know how it works.
