| I have asked this question in the past but there wasn't a solution. I am
hoping someone may have been able to find one since then.
For sellers like myself who only sell to US customers and want to price their
items based strictly on available US inventory, BL's price guide returns
very inaccurate results, usually below the lowest prices.
Has anyone figured out a workaround to this issue so that a seller could extract
pricing based solely on inventory located in the US?

In the settings for price guide select US only, and it will show only US based
prices for current items. It doesn't work for part outs, so more work instead
of worldwide averages if you are pricing lots of parts.

| | How about when using Brickstore to update inventory pricing? |

It's funny ... I often think it is US based sales that pull averages down,
as (domestic) US buyers pay more than the price recorded as they pay tax on top.
Whereas UK and EU (domestic) buyers buy with tax included (if at all), so the
recorded prices include any necessary tax. If paid prices were equal, the recorded
prices would be lower in the US. It is a problem with different tax rules but
just one way of calculating the average price.

| The BrickLink API allows you to get the Price Guide Past 6 Months Sales data
for US sellers only. This is incorporated into the Continuous Price Updates
feature of Brick Seller.
If you are not familiar with Brick Seller, you can find a link to it on the BrickLink
Inventory Software links here: https://www.bricklink.com/links.asp?catID=9

| Rick, thank you so much for this info. I just watched all the videos. Is there
a specific setting to direct the specific API call for U.S. inventory pricing
only?
