It'd be nice with a link to the feedback for a purchase from the price guide
of a product, to get an idea of how happy the buyer/seller was with the purchase
for the price they gave.

Does it annoy any other Sellers that when you visit your quote page you see EVERY
quote you have ever given? Please add a FILE option so that once a quote is no
longer valid, has been rejected or is even accepted and finished we can make
it go away.

Also, the number in parentheses beside the Quotes (4) link should only represent
open, active, or incomplete quotes. Every time I see it I get a jolt thinking
I have left something undone.

My suggestion is for invoices for new users to automatically go thru the BL message
system (as well as email). This may cut down new users not seeing invoices in
their email for whatever reason.

I don't see that receiving BL invoices via the message system & email is
labeled as the default setting, so I thought I'd suggest it.

The on/off button is currently found in the My Settings: My Contact Settings
section.

There can be a link to disable the feature within the message.

I really like having this feature on at all times, but I can see how some may
find it bothersome.

Hey folks!

Buyers can't see their cart weight unless they enable some obscure option.
Why is that option even not enabled by default? Why can't I, as a seller,
force buyers to see their cart weight in my store?

This means that if buyers aren't aware that this option exists, they have
to guess the weight, ask the seller continuously as they add batches, or request
a bunch of quotes.

Why force this upon ourselves when the website can automatically do it for us?

I suggest we allow sellers to show cart weights to their buyers, even if the
buyers haven't enabled that option.

Thanks for voting!

(This suggestion purposely shows the other side of https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1048014

Hey folks!

I think this option is counter-productive for buyers. (See image below)

Sellers are allowed to turn off the display of cart weight in their store, even
if the buyer has chosen to see cart weight.

This means that if buyers are cost-of-shipping-sensitive, they have to manually
calculate the cart weight, or ask the seller for a quote.

Why force this upon ourselves when the website can automatically do it for us?

I suggest we force sellers to have the weight of cart shown within their store.

Thanks for voting!

In my opinion the largest problem of the Bricklink page is that the final shipping
costs are often unknown till the invoice. It is much too late. I suggest calculating
the maximum shipping costs before the final checkout.
Let me display an example:
The buyer Alice orders parts which weigh 80 grams. The seller Bob states that
the shipping costs are 3 EUR up to 100 grams and 4 EUR up to 200 grams. Bob means
the TOTAL weight while from Alice's point of view the weight of packing materials
is unknown and never stated. This way Alice doesn't know the final price.
(Btw. I suppose it is against the EU law.)

Once I have come across such a case that in seller's opinion the maximum
net weight of parts was about 30 grams to keep the total weight below 100 grams!
Is it fair and clear?

I can see the following solutions:
(i) suggest the buyers to state their shipping costs precisely, in terms of net
weight of parts or dimensions of parts
(ii) apply automatic calcultion of maximum shipping costs on the checkout page
so that the seller couldn't apply higher costs.
The latter one is much better.

When you click on an item in a store at present, you go first to the small image,
then have to click again to get a large image. Why not go straight to the large
image?

If your goal is to go to the item in catalog, the picture you go to first makes
no difference.

If your goal is to see a bigger picture of the item, you still have to click
again, why not go straight to larger picture?

There are a number of slow shippers on Bricklink, but bricks are perfect when
they arrive.

I actually like ebay system of being able to rank item/communication/shipping

hi

not sure if this has been suggested before

I have been a member for a while but only recently started buying lego off here
and I like to keep track of what lego I have but its a pain writing it all down
when I buy lego, as you have an inventory for sellers I think it would be a good
idea to have one for buyers.

as orders arrive I would like to be able to add it to my inventory and also see
a total amount I have of that lego piece next to each item when in a shop, so
it tells me how many Technic, Liftarm 1 x 7 Thick, Black, next to the qty that
the seller has if that makes sense?

not sure about anyone else but this would make it so much easier for me as I
then don't have to keep checking if I have that lego piece when im looking,
this will help me decide if I need more of that lego piece or if I have enough
of them for now and stop me maybe ordering the same pieces from 2 different stores
days a part when I place orders

thank you

Hi,

I don't use the forum very often, but was on yesterday and was annoyed by
the amount of spam that was flying around offering passports etc.

Can i suggest that the forum is restricted to members who have received some
(one) positive feedback for either a purchase or sale.

This would prohibit people from just registering and posting SPAM.

As I understand it, BL sellers and buyers are earning BL several million quid
a year via commission. Can I humbly suggest that some of this profit is redirected
into giving the platform an active customer support staff that is available 24-hours
per day. That such a site relies on volunteers to keep the wheels greased is
a bit perverse given the circumstances.

There are people putting a very rare and expensive part at a very low price in
a super-lot in order to attract people.

That is imho unfair, but permitted.
This also spoils the average price in a terrible way. There should be a simple
option in which you can EXCLUDE super-lots as much as you can exclude incomplete
sets.

The System is already able to find out if a lot is part of a super lot, so that
should be super-easy to implement, and would really help a lot.

Thanks.

It's probably been brought up before, but it would be very handy to include
a tracking link for all open orders. Assuming there is tracking. It would make
things a lot easier for the buyers.

And speaking of the buyers, please bring back the lowest price option on the
auto-finder. Making things easier for the buyers make people buy things. If
you make it harder to buy things, you lose sales.

It makes no sense that you can enter a store you are stoplisted from (let alone
be able to fill your cart and only find you are stoplisted when attempting to
checkout)

Please change it back to the way is used to be that when you tried to enter the
store it tells you you are stoplisted.

Thanks,

Maybe this is covered somehow, or I'll just make it as a suggestion. If
I'm looking building a set, or parting out a set, I'd love to know what
the most valuable pieces in that set are. Is there no way to do that already?
I'd love to see a sort by average price on the set inventory page!

It can take a lot of scrolling to find my price/quantities in the price guide
overview.
I always use 'sort by price and group by month' (consolidated currencies).
These options should remain.

So my suggestions for the price guide of a part in a certain color:

-As a seller I would like to see my data (price and quantities) at the top part
of the screen, or at the top of a month.

-Most of the time I am not immediately interested in each separate entry (sold
or available). I would prefer an overview of quantities per price. So instead
of seeing 10 separate entries for each transaction where the part sold for 0.01,
there would only be one entry per price. This will hopefully shorten the overview
somewhat.
--condense/collapse the separate entries to one per price
--it should be possible to click on the condensed/collapsed entry to see
all individual entries

In my own case, I don't use tiered pricing or % off at all and rarely
use reserved. Unless I am mistaken, every field in a web form like a page of
my inventory is taking up memory and slowing down processing and I don't
even use half of the fields. If I could turn those off, the site would be much
more friendly to my iPad.

Hello Admin,

Please add the Community tab back on top of the page when in a store.

To go to Community now we have to either click the Bricklinklogo and end up at
the homepage or click the MyBL link and end up at My Profile and then we see
the Community tab.

Preferrable add the Search too.

Hi,

Is it possible to have a check box within the quotes page to allow us sellers
to remove quotes that have been cancelled/accepted?

I can see the future scenario of where sellers will have multiple pages of quotes
and none of them will be relevant...

Because having Mini Doll first is driving me crazy.

Also Friend is matches brand name of series for those searching.

With instant checkout looming around the corner, I would like to have the option
for my buyers to be able to use the instant checkout option when purchasing my
electronically delivered custom model instructions.

However, at the moment, I cannot differentiate these electronic instructions
from actual paper instructions. I am not allowed to set the weight to zero grams
or selecting a checkbox that these are electronic. How will this be handled during
instant checkout with causing some sort of error?

Please allow for an option for sellers of custom instructions to be able to allow
instant checkout.

There are other sellers who use Bricklink for selling these and would benefit
from this implementation. It would also cause less issues and confusion if this
is properly handled. Lastly, this will draw more sellers of custom instructions
to sell through Bricklink instead of other venues.

Thank you for the consideration.

Howdy guys! I was wondering if it is possible to have our picking list separated
into New and Used But still be in order of item number? For example, all the
new would be at the top of the list but be in the correct item number order,
then the used (in correct order) would be after the new. It would be soooo helpful
since the New and Used are obviously in different places in our physical stores.
Yikes, dare I say this BUT, that is how Brickowl does it and it is just much,
much easier to pull.
thanks for lending an ear

With instant checkout coming in the near future, please upgrade the Stripe integration
to perform validation checks between the buyer address and the credit card records.

Also upgrade Stripe so that API is used versus only submitting the user name.

Now that everything minifigure is dual sided, the pictures have effectively halved
in size. Also, the description on the page is large, and picture small (in a

Ebay has gone to bigger pictures (free) which tends to prove they work. Can
we allocate more space to pictures?

Hi, when using the BUY NOW feature of the wanted list, it shows me the stores
but not:
a) condition of the item (new / used)
b) what the price is in each store

Instead I see a "minimum purchase" total.

So you have to go to each store and check, or to the price guide, which doesn't
make a quick buy that quick.


Could we change this?

Please combine the catalog categories on one category:

Bionicle
Hero Factory
Large Figure Part
(and even a few bionicles parts that are for some reason stuck in the technic
category when they are used for nothing other than bionicles).

Then, sub-divide that category into several smaller categories such as:
Head, Mask, Torso, Limb, Foot, etc.


There is no reason to have these three categories. Large amounts of a part found
in one category is used by another. For example, some Hero Factory parts are
used in more bionicle figures than Hero Factory. And wading through any of those
three categories even in their current state in order to find something is almost
ridiculous.

Please revise the catalog policy by removing this restriction to the catalog
from:
"Items that should not be added to the catalog:", Section 1, on this page:
http://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=71

"Also, do not submit items which have been verified as never released, even if
a picture is available."


There is already a large list of unreleased sets on bricklink. There is no reason
why more should not be allowed to be added, so that bricklink can remain the
most complete Lego database. (Otherwise, what's the point to even having
the current list???)

And there is no reason why people should not be able to buy and sell these sets
even if the boxes and instructions were not officially released (since many of
these sets can be fully made from the released pieces).

"Decorated Minifig Hips and Legs - Submission of entries for the separate component

Some sellers don't have anything listed in the terms and conditions and nothing
listed in thes shipping section. Instead everything is posted in their splash
page. This gives those sellers the ability to change their terms and shipping
rates at anytime without the buyer being able to go back and look at the terms/shipping
when they made their purchase.

The only method to prove what the terms were is to make a screenshot of the splash
page when the purchase is made. Then the burden of proof is on the buyer to
prove that the screenshot was the terms/shipping policy when the purchase was
made.

Please start keeping a history of the splash page. For sellers that externally
host their splash page maybe and automatic daily screenshot can be captured and
retained as the terms/shipping policy for the day.

Thank you,
Jacob

Sorry I forgot to mention that! We updated the Settings page so that you are
now able to select your default landing page after logging in. There are several
options for you to choose from. Just a reminder for everyone, you can access
this page by hovering over or clicking on My BL and then clicking on Settings.

Thanks,

Hello
Maybe this topic was a long time ago, but I would like to ask if you think that
payment via paypal should be immediate after the order is placed. Many of you
had situations where customers canceled orders after a week / two, did not pay,
and you had other people interested in your products and prices. Should not it
be like many other well-known sites that like to buy something immediately pay
for it (via paypal)? What do you think about that?
(Sorry for my not quite good english)
Regards

The wanted list search page here https://www.bricklink.com/v2/wanted/search.page
does not provide an option to use the "on hand" values in that search.

Scenarios:
Show me all items on all wanted lists where I have a value in the on hand field
Show me all the items of a particular nature where I have a value in the on hand
field
Show me all items where I do not have a value on hand
Show me all items where the value on hand is equal to the qty wanted

The wanted list view at this page https://www.bricklink.com/v2/wanted/list.page?utm_content=subnav
does not remember my search settings and keeps reverting back.

Scenario:
Change the search to by "Completion" and "Down" sort order.
Open a wanted list to review
Hit browser back arrow to return to the page
Reverts to default search settings

Can you please add the ability to save your default search criteria?

Additionally, a filter to only show those with items on hand / not on hand /
not completed / partially completed would be useful

Consider allowing a user preference to exclude the On-Hand quantity of an item
when searching a store for items on the wanted list.
Scenario:
I have multiple wanted lists with a total of 6 of 1x6 white plates on them
I have previously marked two of these plates on one wanted list as "have"
Search a store and locate that item in the store
Bricklink on that item line tells me I have a total of 6 on my wanted list with
2 "on hand"
When I click the Auto-fill min option bricklink places a quantity of 6 as the
minimum on the item.
I would like the option to exclude the on-hand quantity thus placing a quantity
of 4 on the item line.
Logic is that I have 2 on hand, so why would I want 6 more (only need 4 more)

LEAVING BULK FEEDBACK:

As a seller, this would be very nice to be able to leave feedback in bulk.

Also, being able to create a few preset feedback message that also can be randomly
assigned would be nice as well.

Hello,
as I haven't found the functionality in the Bricklink API I would like to
ask you if would be posible to GET related items to any part (for example counterparts
to the wedges etc) as it is possible on the website in the collapsible box:

Related Items:
This Item pairs with the following Item(s):
...

Thanks

Hello Administrators.
I wanted to point out something.
The order in question never arrived at the destination. My feedback (not negative
but neutral) only indicated this. If to keep the vendor feedback from being immaculate,
you are removed by your administrators, losing the feeling of leaving the feedback
yourself.

Suggest adding brick weight field to the catalog.

I have observed that a buyer cannot tell if a seller has been reasonable in calculating
the shipping costs for an order until they have received the bricks, at which
point it is too late to question it as the order is paid.

In at least two cases I've had a seller overcharge for shipping and fees
by using packaging which is unreasonably heavier than the bricks being shipped.
The only option available to the buyer in this case is to give negative feedback.

If the catalog included brick weight then the buyer could make an informed choice
before paying and negative feedback could be avoided.

After I send a letter to customers, the screen takes me back to generic message

I frequently work on a split screen to upload items, compare things etc. If
Bricklink could have the SUBMIT button (i.e. for SEARCH) centered instead of
right justified, this would enable me to not have to scroll.

Suggestion from Matt of White Horse Bricks, in response to my query below:
It would be great if they could be listed against each other as 'alternate
part numbers' in the same way as some parts do.

It would need to be in a way that the search engine and wanted lists point to
both so that people searching in sets get the part listing and vice versa.

Original Question from OOO_Shiny:
I have several new, sealed power functions pieces. They have a set number, and
then a different part number, but it is the same single item.

Examples

 
Set No: 8886  Name: Power Functions Extension Wire (20cm)
* 
8886-1 (Inv) Power Functions Extension Wire (20cm)
1 Part, 2008
Sets: Power Functions
contains only
 
Part No: 60656  Name: Electric, Power Functions Extension with one Light Bluish Gray End (length 20cm)
* 
60656 Electric, Power Functions Extension with one Light Bluish Gray End (length 20cm)
Parts: Electric, Wire & Connector

and


 
Set No: 8883  Name: Power Functions M-Motor
* 
8883-1 (Inv) Power Functions M-Motor
1 Part, 2008
Sets: Power Functions
contains only part
 
Part No: 58120c01  Name: Electric, Motor 9V Power Functions M with Dark Bluish Gray Bottom
* 
58120c01 Electric, Motor 9V Power Functions M with Dark Bluish Gray Bottom
Parts: Electric, Motor

If a buyer is looking for the part, will the single part set also appear? If
not, how do I suggest an addition to the listings pointing out that they are
the same?

Also an issue for

 
Set No: 8870  Name: Power Functions Light
* 
8870-1 (Inv) Power Functions Light
1 Part, 2008
Sets: Power Functions
and

 
Set No: 8871  Name: Power Functions Extension Wire (50cm)
* 
8871-1 (Inv) Power Functions Extension Wire (50cm)
1 Part, 2009
Sets: Power Functions

I use wanted lists and wondered if the following could be added.

1. The option to add a image to individual want lists.
2. The option to set sort order of want lists and for it to remember the order
3. The facility to group different want lists together

Thanks for taking the time to read.

A lot of sites let you click on a tracking number and it takes you right to that
carriers tracking page and shows where your item is. Maybe bricklink could have
sellers "choose a carrier" and then put in the tracking number. Bricklink could
turn that tracking number into a link on the order page. Not sure how all the
fancy stuff works but I didn't see this suggested and it would be really
nice to not have to open a new window all the time.

Hello, Admins

I sell all the parts from sets, but keep the minifigs.
Would it be possible to add a third option to the "Price Guide\Part Out Value\Include"
drop down that excludes the minifig parts?

This will allow me to obtain an average price for only the parts of a set and
sell them as one lot.

Many thanks and regards,
Dan
