Hope all is going well this holiday season for everyone!

Before I shutdown for the holidays myself, I'm creating one last sale.

Any order of $100 or more ships for free.
Any order of $200 or more also gets a 5% discount on the total purchase price.
These deals stack (or at least they should per how they are set up).

I drop off any orders to USPS and UPS very quickly as well.

Instant checkout on everything!

Thank you

Each and every day, any order $25 or more is free shipping. Any order less than
$25 is $4.99.

That's it. Nice and simple and instant checkout available on every purchase.

On top of all that, I get any orders to USPS or UPS quickly.

If today isn't a shopping day, simply adding my shop as a favorite to check
out later on may save some clicks another day.

Hope all is well and take care!

Free Shipping with orders of $25 or more.

Instant Checkout is available for any order as well.

Any orders are shipped quickly as well. I had one yesterday for nearly 3,000
pieces and it is already in the mail.

I only ship within the USA.

Take care and have a wonderful rest of the week!!

It appears whatever site I used to use to help identify mini-fig heads is not
existent anymore or the URL changed.

Can someone point me to what the go-to site is for helping ID mini-fig heads
or remind me the tricks?

Thanks

Happy 2022 everyone. 2021 was very busy for my family and I as we built a new
house and moved to a new area as well do i had to shut down the store in Feb
2021 to start packing everything up. There were plenty of delays in the home
building and overall a great experience but also an exhausting one too.

Just checking in to ask if someone is able to summarize what is new on BL from
early 2021 until now. Any big new develops or changes on how things are done
or is it pretty much the same as before? The last big thing I recall is implementing
the tax per sale based on the state making the purchase. Also, anything that
deals with international processes can be left of any summary. I only sell domestically.


Hope all is well with everyone. I built my new Lego room all by myself and am
very pleased with how it has turned out. Everyday I'm putting in the work
to get organized more and more and although I could probably open later this
week, I want to put in some more improvements so picking orders csn be sped up
even more than I had it organized prior which takes further planning and organizers.

Thank you in advance to anyone that responds to this too.

I had enough of these in the last few weeks that waiting 2 full weeks is painful
to complete them.

I don't mind the 1 week to pay before it is started. But another full 7 days
to complete the NPB is not necessary.

I would propose 3 additional days and that is it. Let us get our stock back
in our stores to sell to someone else instead of being held at our will for 14
full days when 10 is plenty enough.

I can't be the only one that feels this way and 14 days might have worked
10-15 years ago when access to Smart-Phones wasn't as widespread, but these
days, you can't go far without having the ability to respond. Thanks

Currently it says
Invoices
Shipments
Drove-thru

Would like to see
Orders
Invoiced
Paid
Packed
Shipped

Orders -- these need to be invoiced
Invoiced-- seller has sent the invoice
Paid --- buyer has paid
Packed-- seller has packed the order
Shipped -- seller has shipped the order, and can complete drive thru here
to move it out of the shipped bucket

Same for buyers. Not sure why everything was condensed to three options when
there are more stages than this and with IC, items move quickly through the stages
and skip some.

Thanks for the consideration.

I used Brickstock to Load my stock into the store but the Price Guide that BL
has is a wonderful estimate to what I would do using Brickstock.

However, a piece of the parting out could be pushed to one degree further if
only you were able to have the BL system tell you what the items are that you
do not have.

In the attachment, off of a random set, I have the majority of the lots in my
store, but do not stock 4 of them. This is where it would be wonderful to have
a quick way of knowing what those 4 Lots are. Is there a way this already exists?
The only want I know of to check on this is to run an upload from Brickstock
into BL, take it to the verify screen and review the items that are not being
consolidated. Is there another way that is helpful?

Thank you

One of the many ways that I personally change my pricing is simply based on how
much space those items take up to store them. An example is, I believe I have
about 200 6x6 plates. This takes up a good amount of room to hold these, of
which, maybe I would want to price these lower to possibly move them to free
up space. Another example is large Wheels. Regardless, it would be beneficial;
to other than knowing what items are large but also to know how much space is
being used in comparison to others if they were able to sort by total Size which
would be Quantity times the sizes that BL already has established. This would
help compare space being used for 2 x 4 plates vs 6 x6 plates vs 1x1 round plates
and also be another way to run sales on items that are large that maybe we forgot
we even had.

Thanks for the consideration.
