Hi BL'ers,

Sorry for my English. Is it an idea to make a personal catalog in Bricklink in
which you can inventory the sets which you own? And maybe inventory missing parts
or sets and put them on your wanted list or order them?

Shall give a nice view of your collection.

Best regards and enjoy your lego.

Like to hear from you.

From the Netherlands, Wilbert

You've a wonderful name.

You can use Brickset, Rebrickable.com or Brickstock.

Or use your Store Stockrooms on Bricklink.

I just bought a MacBook Pro and it is very fast! But it has got me wishing that
Bricklink had a seller feature that would automatically have the average price
(or what ever price you set it as) put in the box while adding items like brickOwl
does. I also love how brickOwl has the option to add the same part in multiple
colors at the same time and I really wish Bricklink had the same! I also like
it that if I posted a suggestion in the BrickOwl Forum for a new seller feature,
it would be done in a matter of a few minutes (most likely). I hope this seller
feature suggestion can be acted upon quickly and not years later to never.

When I want to buy something under the “Items for Sale” tab, all of the items
from all of the countries are listed.

It would be nice to see only USA sellers.

Under the “Price Guide” tab there is a way to change the settings to see only
USA prices.

Can that also be applied to “Items for Sale?

Thanks

Greg

Already exist. Check USA in your Catalog, Price Guide and Wantlist settings:

Re: Mark a buyer as "Refunded due to non-arrival"

It happens a buyer says he didn't receive the items. When shipping using
an untracked medium, there is no way in verifying if the claim is legit. So I
usually make no fuss and either refund the total order amount (including shipping)
or re-send it (if I have the items in stock).

In these cases, I sometimes get the feeling the buyer might have done this before
and actually has received the items. But as I said: there is no proof, since
no tracking. Then I wonder: "has this buyer done this in the past before with
other sellers?". There is no way in knowing. And that's why I think a buyer
should get some sort of parameter/rating stating the number of orders that were
refunded due to non-arrival. It seems like a small feature. Not really that important,
but if it were there, it would give some extra statistics in the long run as
well.

You can mention it in the feedback.

Re: Baseplates not (easy) to find

I'm new in this forum, please let me know if I should use a different topic.

I'm not getting through the currently available baseplates. How can I sort
by plate size in the Bricklink catalog? For example, how would I find out if
there is currently a 32x32 baseplate in (Light Bluish) Gray?

I find it hard to see through. E.g., the 48x48 plates are listed as part 4186,
but it says: Years Released: 1980 - 2016. If I'm looking for sets, for example,
the 10701 appears, which has been sold since 2015 and still is according to Lego
online store.

So the listing 4186 is incorrect in saying that there is no current 48x48 baseplate.

When I search baseplate in sets, no sizes are displayed, it can not be sorted
by year.

Thank you

Sort by 'Item name' and then order 'Up'.

Hello again everybody,

We mentioned last week that we were looking for a new Inventories Admin, and
I'm announcing today that we have appointed Randy (user randyf) to this position.

Randy is a very well-known contributor to the catalog, a frequent participant
in Forum discussions, and pretty much a person we couldn't imagine BrickLink
being without. He has contributed a large number of color-adjusted Lego part
renders which have helped define the look of BrickLink for the next generation.
And his work with PCCs is unmatched.

We are pleased and excited to extend these admin privileges to Randy and to welcome
him to our admin team.

Russell

Congratulations Randy.

Hi!

It would be nice to be able to filter the discussion forums to show topics started
by me.

I would like to see my Inventory Change Requests as it seems that the rejected
ones are deleted from my profile regularly. Some of them are rejected because
of the lack of proof and I would be able to do research for new proof for them
regularly.

Thanks,
Ádám

I was thinking that it would be an interesting feature if store owners were able
to see who has carts/how many carts people have in your store so that we might
be able to issue coupons or have sales to encourage people who have had an open
cart for a long time. Another idea is people get email notifications (if they
want to enable them) for stores they have carts in whenever the price drops.

This suggestion has been made before and has privacy issues.

Congratulations StormChaser.

In Catalog, Admin_Russell writes:

Hello everyone,

We are pleased to announce that we have made another appointment. StormChaser,
who was appointed as Inventories Administrator last year, has now been promoted
to Catalog Administrator.

This is an important step for BrickLink. We haven't had a Catalog Admin appointment
for over nine years, and this is the first time someone has moved from the Inventories
side of the system to the Catalog side.

We believe StormChaser is highly qualified for this position. In addition to
an outstanding year as an Inventories Admin, he has had years of intense experience
with every area of the BrickLink Catalog. He has made many thousands of corrections,
uploaded an enormous amount of new data, and has solved a number of LEGO mysteries
over the years. So we're very pleased he has agreed to accept this position,
and we look forward to his activity in this new area.

We will be be making another appointment soon to fill his former position as
Inventories Administrator.

Russell
