| What piece is it that you still need?
| | Likewise as a buyer I think its ridiculous to not be allowed to cancel an order
for 2 weeks if the vendor wont even communicate whether or not they will even
send it! I paid for my items 2/27/18. Altho I have sent several emails. UT I
HAVE STILL YET TO HEAR FROM 1 of my vendors if they are even going to ship my
merchandise. I have received my merchandise from a vendor who was moving his
warehouse and 1 that was form the Netherlands. It's a tiny order & very little
money. But if they didn't want to mess with such a tiny order, they should
have told me! Bricklink chose the vendors, NOT ME! Now I can't build, because
I need a piece I was expecting to get from them. I submitted a problem response
through this system. It's a common piece but I shouldn't have to order
it again or go to a Lego store.

| It seems that I don't have a choice of what I offer for PayPal payments,
even though BL says I have a choice between onsite and offsite.
There is an option to select PayPal marketplace.
| | It's working fine for me. All I do is select standard "Paypal" as the payment
option (or empty my cart if it's not available), wait for the invoice to
come in, and then log in to Paypal to submit payment. Now, come late April,
it'll be jacked twelve ways from Sunday...

| Sorry, but I don't think a misc lot of parts is a good justification for
this change to a verified inventory.
But of course, I don't really have any say.
| | Comments from Submitter:
I found exactly two reddish brown 4215b in a large lot of bricks containing set 7199. These panels can only come from this set because there is not a single reddish brown 60581 in the lot, and there is no trace of neither of the sets 5378 and 10144 (the count of 2 would also be a mismatch for these other sets). Because 4215b is the older version, I've switched 60581 to be the alternate.

| BrickLink does not support mobile devices. Some devices may work while other's
don't. Mobile support does not appear to be one of their priorities.
Of course, it worked fine for years prior to the upgrade.

That scroll attempt also caused other screwups, like the cursor and entered text
not showing up in the data entry box, but below it.

The extras section may not have even been thought of when this was released,
let alone considered for rubber bands on a holder.

then why are you asking that all 4 be removed from the set inventory?

|
| A recent forum message just reminded me of a concept I thought of awhile ago.
Please consider creating 3 options for wanted list viewing among users.
Private:
Default option. No one else can see your any of your lists.
Limited:
Much like reserving items where you enter a user name. This would allow one
person of your choosing to view a specific list.
Public:
One or all of your lists can be seen by everyone.
I recognize that this isn't the most important upgrade that is needed, however,
a feature such as this has been wanted by many for a long time.

| Unfortunately, BL has spent so much effort fixing the website that they've
essentially broken it in my eyes. It seems like every time I'd start a big
project they would change how the wanted list worked or the available features.
In addition, they never provide a manuals or help guides on how to use the updates.
I was in the middle of the Technic Icarus supercar project when I finally had
my fill. I'm no longer an active BL buyer (I'll still buy a little here
and there).
Instead, I now spend my money on ebay for Lego sets.

| Thank you for the info.
Something weird about the below subject. The rollover icons themselves can be
clicked on like a regular link in addition to the rolled over options.
| | To oversimplify what's actually going on here is this: Those top nav items
are not links. They are "rollover detectors" tied to a script. When your cursor
hovers over one of these areas, it triggers the script which then shows the dropdown
box containing links to pages. As the top nav items are not links, the browser
can't give you the right-click options to open the link in a new window because
the items aren't links. The items in the drop-downs are links, but the top-navs
aren't. Clicking the top nav activates something in the script which then
takes you to a page.

| 1) Please fix the BL login. Multiple times pretty much every day BL tells me
that my auto-fill password and id are in error.
Sometimes I can switch to a new tab or close the browser and start it again.
Other times, I have to clear my cookies (it took 2 tries of clearing cookies
just now). When I clear my cookies for BL, I also lose all my other site prefilled
info.
None of the above is acceptable for a modern website.
2) Links: why on earth do the upper links (community, my store, my bl, etc) work
when clicked on, but do not when you right-click for a new tab? (Google Chrome)
Please fix this too.

| Not necessarily. They could have received a mispacked bag with an extra. It
wouldn't be the first time Lego's machines have made an packing error.
I had an extra minifig part in a recent set that wouldn't normally be an
extra.

you would need to get an extra entire pack:

| I stopped contributing to the site (at the level that I was), due to some frustration
with the new management/ownership, so you have my sympathy.
I'll occasionally submit a weight, but that's about it.
| | If BrickLink keeps going at the rate it is going by forcing out its top contributors,
BrickLink won't have much of a community of volunteers left to do anything
for it. The extremely slow rate of new inventories being submitted for approval
to the catalog over the last two years as well as the loss of many major catalog
contributors to other sites is already indicative of this trend.

|
| Please "downgrade" from the recent update to the wanted list and give us back
the number of "needed" lots (eg: those where the have field is not fulfilled).
Ideally we should be able to not only see the number of needed lots, but also
the quantity of parts still required for each wanted list.
P.S. If someone were to analyse what functions each feature offers before designing
an upgrade, I'm reasonably confident that there will be less complaints about
missing features.
Measure twice, cut once vs. measure once, cut it too short and have to start
all over.
P.P.S. Tutorials on how to use new features would also help. Maybe info/features
in each upgrade are available that aren't obvious to all of us.

| The site map on the old My BL page was quite handy and must more condensed than
the full site map.
I would like to suggest that it be added to the new page in some form. Maybe
a button that when clicked opens/expands the old map without changing pages,
if possible.
Also, the new page is nice to look at, but it has too much empty space leading
to unnecessary scrolling. Only half of the page is displayed on a 22" monitor
w/o scrolling, whereas before 3/4 of the page was displayed with 100% of the
major info on one.

|
| There's something about the "Required" feature on wanted lists that doesn't
make sense to me. When I select "required" for a particular item, the system
doesn't factor in the quantity.
On my current list I need 2 piece of a rare(ish) part, so I select "required,"
but it still shows results of only 1 piece.
Is this working as intended? I would certainly like to be able to have some
control over quantity.

| I deleted my vote, however, I believe that bank transfers among individuals are
a path to unfair play. This is especially so when sellers charge extra for a
buyer to use a payment method that has some form of recourse against fraud.
This can even happen with honest people that don't intend to cause issues.
A seller gets extremely ill, coma, death, and is unable to ship the goods.
Unfortunately, it happens. I've read of at least 3 deaths, 1 coma, and various
other issues to BL members, since joining.
I will continue to use PayPal for this extra piece of mind that my buyers have
protection should something happen.

My post clearly referred to e-commerce between individuals.

here e-commerce is absolutely huge to the point that entire brick-and-mortar
shopping centers go empty, and almost all of that goes through bank transfers.
