| There is one post about this from almost 5 years ago, but I feel like it should
be brought up again. http://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=476836
The current coupon system is fantastic. It prevents spamming coupons everywhere.
However, sellers need a way to send out coupons to customers who want
discounts. Like a coupon code.
Seller can create a coupon code
Set limitations, expiration date, and other information.
Then the seller can send out the coupon on their social media or other mass communication
services to draw in customers. Current "codes" are based on the trustworthiness
of a seller instead of a system code. This code could still not be mass messaged
to BL members because the system is only generating a store specific code and
not a coupon for a specific person.
Thoughts?

| I don't think it would be too complicated to implement, even though the code
is outdated, a search feature for when I search
0142* or 142* on the top search bar (with the drop down on My Inventory) to be
able to bring up remarks. It gets annoying having to go to the inventory tab,
check the dot, then type it in every time. I know remarks are inefficient, but
I need them for my current storage system.

| Another suggestion that probably won't get read, but shouldn't be too
hard to implement.
For shipping options I would like to have 2 with the same name, 1 for international
and 1 for domestic, but different notes about each method.
Just would be nice.

| So what if we could sort by average price? Or what parts are sold often in quantity?
Or the many other things you could search for...
Just an idea that probably won't be implemented.

| It would be nice to mark messages as unread.... Not that anyone at the development
team is gonna see it, but I figured I would bring it up anyways.
(Still 6 month purge is annoying)

| Not that it matters much, but a "Ranting" thread would be very well used.
That's all I got to say.

| When parting out sets, I have a few methods of storage. However, sorting by "Recently
Updated" (Not just listed as listed only shows new lots) would help greatly.
If part A was increased in quantity (From a consolidation of a part out), it
would show up on the "sort by recently updated" function early on compared to
20-30 pages back. Pretty simple addition I would think.

| Author: | jamesuniverse | | Posted: | Apr 22, 2014 00:01 | | Subject: | Weekly Fix Idea. | | Viewed: | 157 times | | Topic: | Suggestions | | Status: | Discarded | |
| Too long? I'll take care of that: Fix 1 bug or add 1 suggestion a week or
4 a month and BL has a ton of happier sellers and buyers. Plus it shows progress.
Many of us know that there are many problems and suggestions that need fixing
and adding. Please take these debates elsewhere. I just want to publish an idea
that will not only show progress with Bricklink, but slowly make everyone happy.
How hard would it be to fix 1 bug or add one suggestion per week? Here is a couple
really simple ones off the top of my head.
Update the statistics pages. All of them.
Add percentage to feedback like this: jamesuniverse (###) 100%
Fix the download orders function (can't download while ignoring filed orders)
Now please don't use this to list every simple fix. I just listed mine. Even
if the fix was small, imagine how much happier the community would be? Progress!
Who cares if it is so miniscule. It shows 3 things.
Progress
Listening to Members
And most importantly, Communication!
This could be done weekly. 1 week to fix 1 small bug or idea? I find that reasonable.
If not, how about 4 per monthly cycle! Of course you can do more, but seeing
progress would:
Open many stores again.
Lessen the forum debates
Probably get BL a better name (as in reputation)
Please don't let this be a debate again, but I feel this could be helpful.
You don't need to build BL 2,3,4,5+.0 to replace 1.0. Just fix a couple things
every once in a while and boom. Happy members, yet you can still do whatever
admins do. :p
I try to stay out of the debates, riots, suggestions, etc. But from what I have
heard. Not much is good.
Hope this doesn't get me stop listed. :p Just trying to be realistic and
have a little peace around here.

| Now most of you probably have Brickstore or nifty tricks to parting out sets.
While I am hoping to learn BrickStock (Mac Brickstore), I am still using the
old method and man. This is annoying.
Few requests.
Checkbox to show what would consolidate on the modify prices and values page.
Automatically/Checkbox for showing the OLD remarks IF they consolidate on BOTH
Values and Verify page.
It is practically impossible for me to part out a set that consolidates a lot
of lots in which I use a storage system that demands the remarks system.
Now I guess I need to learn Brickstore/Brickstock.

| Well I think this would be extremely helpful for at least me.
Most forums I am on (I know all of BL is a whole lot different than a forum,
but that's not the point.) have a messaging system. When I send a message
to 123XYZ they get a Email. How about forcing people to use a BL internal message
system so email "fishers" don't have any dinner.  (Basically they reply
through BL only and get no access to a email.) I probably worded this horribly,
but I think someone will understand it and it would be very helpful. You could
still get these messages sent to your/their email, but a "To reply, Click Here"
could be embedded in the message.
Just ideas so no one has to say "No I don't have 100 2 x 3 bricks" (Anyone
remember that message?)

| I plan to order from a store in Germany and they are using Euros. I use Dollars.
I can deal with it, but I thought it would be nice to have the Currency Conversion
(Like in the store) on each item also. This is already displayed in the store,
but when you go to "Cart" it only shows in Euros (Or whatever a store is using
as its main currency.) I feel this would't be too hard to add either. Hope this
comes in the future!
