Can we please have a function to search for items in our inventory with no catalog
dimensions? We already have one to search for weight, but not dimensions for
some strange reason.

I'm getting tired of bulky items sneaking through Instant checkout at letter
rates because they're missing catalog dimensions, and I have no way of finding
which items need me to manually enter their dimensions.

  My wanted list is "foldered" into sets, Minifigs, and parts among other things.
I have some families in there that deserve their own folder but that I still
want under their respective set, Minifig, or part umbrellas. I really think there
should be a way to create a folder within a folder which would further categorize
items and make it much easier to organize and buy.

I would also like to see:

- The ability to move entire folders instead of their contents

- The ability to rename the default wanted list and give it a more appropriate
name for whatever's inside (It's empty for me and is a waste of space
as a result)

Why not continue it to be more layered and intuitive? Not that it isn't already,
I especially love the "Buy All" feature which saves me from an otherwise insufferable
hunt for stores that fulfill my list. These are just things I think would help
make it even more user-friendly.

You can group by remarks, set to 100 per pg, then Ctrl+F to locate a specific
group.

I too would like folders within folders, the forum to have collapsible threads,
and every browser to include tab containers, but probably not gonna happen.

  I don't know the proper place to post this but I have a question about order
received settings.

I see 12 ways to sort items but not really any that sort by item number. I would
like
Condition - Category - Item Number - Color Name

Do most sellers sort by category than number? It seems like that makes most
sense. It would be nice then, if orders could be sorted that same way.

Thanks

Sorting by item number is a difficult issue with this site. They are a combination
of letters and numbers and won't give you consistent results.

  I would like to suggest adding the ability to easily print a wanted list. Currently
there is an option to print a set's inventory but not for wanted lists.

In Classic view you can print a Wantlist
https://www.bricklink.com/wantedDetail.asp?showOld=Y&catType=P&wantedMoreID=0

Doesn't work for large wanted lists? Most of mine are over 100 items.

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.

  Hmm, I'll have to work with that for a while until I understand it. Thanks

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.

  Is the extra part section at the
end of some sets the ones that are used but not necessarily in the original set?
