  Hello, I saw a problem regarding catalog view. I cant's see all color variants
listed on sale. When I add a brick in a unique color, it does not appear to me
on the list of bricks available for sale. Does anyone know what the reason is?

Are you looking under "all" or "known" colors?



Hi, no mater what will I choose card Color info and Lots For Sale doesn't
show all available color variants. I guess I can see only "Popular" colors. Do
you know how it change?

Do you have a filter in place?
Not all known colours are available for sale, and will not be visible in the
list with colours for sale.

  Good

I found these photos on the Internet on several pages, I would like to do with
one, but can not find where they sell, I think they have made people for their
own collections, you know someone to tune torsos or faces, etc to commission
some?


Best regards

Have tried contacting the guy from the Flickr account?

It has always fascinated me that one the core functionalities of this site is
so often overlooked. How many times has a new (or not at all new) member come
to the Forum to ask for this very thing? They shouldn't have to!

How hard would it be a include elements in pages to educate users on the best
shopping and searching methods? Microsoft used to do it with a big animated paperclip.
lol

Jen

You're right it is typical it's overlooked.
The Help pages are below lot of pages:

  Why is it not possible to search for 2, 3 or more items at the same time ?

Often I am looking for more than one minifig and would like to buy them all from
the same store. I can only search for one minifig and manually have to check
each store if they also have the other minifigs I am looking for.

So please: Make it possible to search for multiple items across stores so results
can come up with store that have all the items looked for. It would be a time
saver of gigantic porportions.

  Hey there, hope your all doing well!

I wanted to run an idea by you guys see what you think, I think it would be really
beneficial and helpful. In the price guide, for any particular set, you can see
the purchase history ( which is awesome). I was thinking, would there be a way
to add which country an item sold in? I feel like that would give us sellers
an idea where an item is hot, and compare that with the pricing. Anyways I think
it would be great, let me know what you think

  Hello,

After hitting a bug where Buy All failed to create orders that totaled my entire
Wanted List (and I didn't realize it until starting to build the models,
too late to ship another order before my time deadline!), I tried to place another
order but search for stores near me so I could pick up locally. I could find
no way to do this.

How about adding a "Stores near me" option in "Sort By" dropdown menu? It could
be based on ZIP code without compromising any store's address. As it was,
I had to manually compare the "284 stores found" list (after I'd limited
it to U.S. stores) with the dozens of stores in my state, finding only two that
matched.

From a programming perspective, it seems like this feature should be easy, with
a big payback in functionality of your wonderful website. And stores still retain
the option to share their address or not, as mine did, after a buyer Contacts
them.

Best regards,
ejv

This has been suggested before and hasn't been implemented because of privacy
issues and perhaps also because of the free market.
When a store is nearby it doesn't mean that the store accepts a pick up.
The easiest way is to send the stores a message.

  New to this. I just ordered over 200 bricks from a seller. I want to place
another order but need to eliminate the purchased ones. How do I easily do this?
Any way besides doing it one by one?

The easiest way to manage is to enable the 'Items in order on Wantlist'
icon in the settings of the orders Placed page. A little scroll will appear.
It takes you to all bought items in that order.
Select the bought items and move all bought items into a new Bought Wantlist.
Then you can do a new search for the remaining items.

  With shipping cost being very expensive where I live I tend to order large quantities
or bricks at once to justify shipping costs. Still, making an order is extremely
expensive for the relatively few pieces I order. I would like a method to cross
reference wishlists with parts available in official sets, so I can buy the sets
that have most of the parts I need and order the remaining on bricklink. This
tool could also be useful to sellers that need to source bulk parts for unofficial
kits, or for just finding the best source of parts.

I think that Rebrickable.com does that.
You enter parts and it tells you which set you can build.

  Hi, might be a stupid question, but I have had a long running problem with the
search box.
Is it just me, maybe a browser issue? I am using Chrome.

Just now I typed in 4032(2x2 round plate) and it would not bring it up.Tried
it 3 times. Yet when I checked the catalogue manually that is the correct number.

I can go to google to search Lego and 98% of the time just a single search shows
me what I want on the first try.

Thanks.

More experienced users are encouraged to use the advanced Catalog Search:
