to edit forum posts after posting them. I can see where this might cause issues,
but many other forum sites support this feature and no matter how many times
I proofread my forum posts, some typos always seem to slip throught.

+1 and then some

Voted no.

I prefer the simplicity of BL's forum over those used on other websites.
Having an edit feature isn't worth the switch to a different application.

That describes the definition of "extra parts" for purposes of the inventory
pages.
Bricklink has a different definition of "extra parts" for purposes of defining
a complete used set.

For me the important thing is to have all the parts I need to build a set.


The extra parts section shows parts included in the box that are not on the "official"
parts list (if there is one). Additionally, any parts that came attached on a
sprue or in standard, bagged "sets" (like small tools and accessories) will
be in the regular section of the inventory even if one or more of the attached
or bagged parts are not needed to build the set.

There is no indication in Bricklink inventories of which parts are needed to
build a set according to the instructions. Sometimes the section of regular items
happens to include just those parts, but it is by coincidence and not by design.

  The functionality to request to remove items from an order, generates an email
to the buyer with this request.
Email is fine!
However, the action that the buyer needs to take (accept or reject, I guess)
is not in that email! It's absolutely unclear where the buyer can accept
this change!
In short: put a functioning link in that email that points to the action(s) that
need to be taken please. I still haven't found where to accept the request.

Thanks.
@BrickLink Admin: please put this link in the email ... Would make it so much
easier!
