Hi folks. Initially when I set up shop, the software I was using was in USD
so I set my prices in USD as well to make things easier. However, I'm no
longer using that software and I'd like to change my pricing to CAD. However,
simply changing the currency does not adjust the prices.

What's the safest (and hopefully easiest) way to accomplish this? What precautions
should I take, ie backing up store, closing my store etc..

Then there's the task of resetting all my prices at once to 6 month average.
What's the easiest way to do that?

I'll admit I'm more of a hands off seller when it comes to maximizing
sales. For me it's a hobby and there's no difference to me if I get one
or two sales a week vs five, but many more would be unmanageable for me to keep
up with and this is not my primary source of income. Having said that, I'd
still like to easily drop prices on mass.

Please share your tips and tricks! Much appreciated.
-Mike

I'll be in London for four days from July 7th to 10th and I plan to drop
into the Leicester Square store. For all the locals, are there any store exclusives
I should pick up while I'm there? Feel free to mention your BL stores as
well if you're willing to meet up at the store on July 8th or 9th.

Thanks!
Mike

I want to build a white background and a black tunnel. I want to use a white
arch 1x8x2. What slopes fit under the arch to make a seamless transition?

I can't find this in the catalogue. Looks like a town plan board but it's
not the UK/Australian version. This is the Canadian Samsonite version. Anyone
have any info on this or if it's already in the catalogue?

Here's the parts list for neon yellow parts
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?v=2&colorID=236

There is no mention of a 1x10 plate.

But this page shows 3 sets that have a 1x10 plate in that colour
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=4477&colorID=236&in=A

Or the 2x6 brick for that matter.
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=2456&colorID=236&in=A

What gives?

I've found one listing for his item and it's a custom item. Is this
not in the catalogue?

https://store.bricklink.com/RE?itemID=272484057#/shop?o={%22invID%22:%22272484057%22}

I have one but I can't find a product number on it. If there weren't
so many cards, I'd be tempted to attempt to inventory it myself.

Is there a way to search your inventory for lots with the remarks not like "bin"

I've recently reorganized my inventory and I want to find any lots that don't
have the word bin in the remarks. Is there a way to do that?

Wouldn't it be the same as the original Fiat but all the light bright yellow
parts being light bright blue instead?

I don't get it. Why would anyone want this? And who would want to spend
$160 to get it? $50 maybe, but $160? ($160 being Canadian Dollars)

Somebody else posted it but I don't recall who.

Here's a link to see posts prior to the nonsense.

It would be nice to see what items are on the most wanted lists. For example,
I was looking at the goat and noticed it's on more than 3000 wanted lists.

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=95341pb01&name=Goat%20with%20Dark%20Tan%20Horns%20and%20Medium%20Nougat%20Spots%20Pattern&category=%5BAnimal,%20Land%5D#T=C&C=1

Maybe I have something stashed away that people really want. Also, it would
be nice to filter the list to average price or category. I probably don't
need to know that black technic pins are on 581291 Wanted Lists.

Does this feature already exist?

How can there be a divider for something that doesn't exist? The case 759528
doesn't exist in the catalogue but is referenced in the item below.

I'd like to be able to search for stores within a specific range (ie 10km,
20km, 50km) from my postal code. Seeing that a seller is in a given province
(in my case) means they could be around the corner or 12 hours way in Thunder
Bay. Being able to search nearby stores would be a fantastic option. It would
be an option to opt into, whereby a store must enable the feature to show up
in nearby store searches. This would allow stores to disable the feature in
case they are uncomfortable with the feature.

I have no idea what this is. I'm sure somebody will figure it out in 2
minutes though.

I don't know if this is already available but when I look at an inventory,
I'd like to see which parts are unique to that set. For example, UCS Falcon
(since it's everyone's favourite set to reference) has boat mast riggings
in LBG and they only appear in that set. It would be helpful when trying to part
together a set to know which pieces will be harder to find.
