Super slow also here in south Italy (Napoli). Pages take 30 secs to a minute
to load when they make it. Had to send a message trice before being able to send
it properly.
Reading this post I think is a localized problem of Italy

I saw one, and only one, instance a few hours ago, where it took upwards of 30
seconds to make an inventory change to a single lot.

Clock with Roman Numerals Simple Pattern), but when I export it as a dae and
import it into Blender, it does not include the clock decal.

Is there a setting in Blender that I need to enable to include the texture, or
is there an alternate method of obtaining pieces with the decals?

What a result : Kidderminster Harriers 2 Reading 1

Another victory for the minnows, sorry I couldn’t be there. 🍾

The dedicated forum for Studio and PartDesigner is https://forum.bricklink.com/
(hover over the red Studio icon on every page, then click “Studio Forum”).

In order to be able to answer your question, I think you’ll need to join your
.io file.  As the forum is public and you may not want to make your file public,
you may also try and join the devs by e-mail at studio@bricklink.com .

Can’t you cycle your pics?  (delete the old one to add new ones)

(I just spent too many minutes on flickr trying to understand how the offers
worked.  What a nightmare!  No information but “create an account and go pro.”
The 1000-pic-limit isn’t anywhere in their FAQ, I had to duckduckgo for it. 
They just say “pro = no limits” without saying what the limit is, or the cost. 
Need to use the search box to find the prices.  I guess their intended public
doesn’t care about cost….)

Just my 2 cents.

Not used it for sometime but hold photo’s there in the free section, I need to

I’m getting to the stage where I might return to searching for unusual and rarer
Lego bricks, a little out of touch these days but hope to make new or re establish
old contacts.

The code needed to get through the Oauth 1.0 authentication was the hardest thing
to figure out when I starting using the API to build the Brick Seller app.

If you are not familiar with Brick Seller, you can find a link to it on the BrickLink
Inventory Software links here: https://www.bricklink.com/links.asp?catID=9

On many (most?) pieces these days the sprue mark is on a stud - definitely the

I saw these slopes and I wondered if TLG resurrected an old mold.

yes, check google. search your email address, literally. see if it's been

also check https://haveibeenpwned.com/. test your email. if it's pwned, there

Anyone else being bombarded, daily, by e-mails trying to get you to invest in
Bitcoin and eKrona or is it that these guys are targeting me because they’ve
got my details from somewhere ?

  I noticed while parting out that one looked like it had a nasty scratch on the
side. On closer inspection, it turned out to be the sprue mark! Really surprised
to find a slope with the sprue mark on the side in 2021.

strange indeed
they should be out of sight

They annoy me in technic beams already.
If we don't complain, there will be more cases for sure

Rick, thank you so much for this info. I just watched all the videos. Is there
a specific setting to direct the specific API call for U.S. inventory pricing
only?

Basically how to authenticate Oauth 1.0 to make any API call

I am trying to make API call from Microsoft Flow

I would really appreciate any help on this

Thank you

To understand how the API and its endpoints work I started with Postman and I
got it working pretty easy.

I'm not sure what you are asking. I use the API extensively. What do you
mean by "store API address"?

The BrickLink API allows you to get the Price Guide Past 6 Months Sales data
for US sellers only. This is incorporated into the Continuous Price Updates
feature of Brick Seller.

If you are not familiar with Brick Seller, you can find a link to it on the BrickLink
Inventory Software links here: https://www.bricklink.com/links.asp?catID=9

For sellers like myself who only sell to US customers and want to price their
items based strictly on available US inventory, BL's price guide returns
very inaccurate results, usually below the lowest prices.

Has anyone figured out a workaround to this issue so that a seller could extract
pricing based solely on inventory located in the US?

It's funny ... I often think it is US based sales that pull averages down,
as (domestic) US buyers pay more than the price recorded as they pay tax on top.
Whereas UK and EU (domestic) buyers buy with tax included (if at all), so the
recorded prices include any necessary tax. If paid prices were equal, the recorded
prices would be lower in the US. It is a problem with different tax rules but
just one way of calculating the average price.

Thank you for your kind words.

As a teenager we had a golden Labrador and she was a great loss back then, couldn’t
bring myself to have a dog after that.

My daughter decided to have Max when she had her own place, he spent some time
with us at one stage and we became best buddies.

He had a habit of lying on the back of the sofa behind you as you see in the
photo, now I’m reminded of why I wouldn’t have a dog all those years, can’t stand
losing them.

I am so sorry for your loss. I had a beautiful lab named Buddy who was my best
friend for many years, so I know how it can feel. They keep a permanent place
in your heart.

Take care and be well,

Jen

Hello!
We have been going through a bunch of minifig parts recently, and have been trying
to part together any complete ones that we may have. However, many have been
listed for parts. Is there any software that allows a store to see what minifigs
they have all of the parts to build listed in their inventory? This would be
an extremely useful tool for completing minifigures.

  Had the garage door open along with the side door in our shop while packing orders.
to help airflow this morning as it got up to 90 Fahrenheit and there's currently
no AC in the building.

Went to grab some bins near the door when I spot one of the cats creeping up.
She knows she's not allowed in. I stand there and glare, which is usually
enough to dissuade them. She looks at me, looks inside, then looks at me again.
Then she rebelliously shoots into the shop through the garage door and right
back out through the side door, as if mocking me.
It's a good things its a cute cat, that's all I have to say...

   It doesn't work for part outs, so more work instead
of worldwide averages if you are pricing lots of parts.

Right...
