Are you ticking the 'Consolidate lots by using' checkbox on the Mass
Upload screen?
You should also consolidate the parts in BrickStore, before uploading to BL (Edit
- Consolidate Items). This is because of a situation where you part out a set
that has the same part in the main inventory and also as an extra i.e. 2 duplicate
lots in BrickStore. If the part does not already exist in your inventory, BL
will not consolidate them during upload (regardless of the consolidate checkbox
setting).
Also, Comments is often a field that catches people out... if you have different
comments between two of the same part, then BL will create a separate lot.
To get around this in BrickStore...
Download your store inventory into one file.
Part out the set in another file.
Consolidate the items (as explained above).
On the 'Edit' menu, use the 'Copy Values from Document' option
and copy the Comments from your downloaded inventory file (just make sure to
set the other fields to Ignore).
This makes sure that the comments in your upload match what is already in your
inventory and stops duplicates being created due to different comments.

Not sure about brick store, but if you want to consolidate repeat lots go to
your inventory, search my inventory, select non-unique and go, this will show
repeat lots and from there you can manually adjust and delete repeats.

Maybe they have done it to stop sellers using those stupid smileys and other
non-ASCII characters in the item notes to try to get people to notice to see
those items. I don't think I've seen any for a while so maybe they are
blocked but this has a side effect of stopping other html coding.

The question is, if this is the case, can't I use html anymore?
Did you hear / read something about that?

You can use a limited subset of HTML in the extended description, but not in
the (shorter) immediate comments on the listing.

Thanks for your reply. Guess I can't use the color code anymore then.
It looks like BR, B and U don't cause any problems.

You could ask the seller, but for instruction manuals - I don't think it
would much matter.
|
It could: more and more sets have an introduction and infos distilled during
the build.
|
Which, if the European ones are similar to the US ones, have that intro in several
languages, so I'd assume purchased one of those from a European country would
still have that info in English.

https://brickset.com/sets/10283-1/
Check the instructions from TLG: FR, DE, ES, IT, ZHSI & then North America and
International.
The intro text and the tidbits are in the corresponding languages, not a one-size-doesn’t-anybody.

Most European market sets are in multiple languages. Take a look on the back
of a box, there are about a dozen languages so one product does the whole of
the European (and further) region.

Yes, you appear to be correct. I'll go ahead and order and fingers crossed
its not totally foreign.
Thanks all for your help

| I have over 1000 pounds of Lego to list. I am confused by some terminology in
BL store setup. Is each color of each part number a LOT? In other words, black
2x4 is a different lot than red 2x4? What is a group? Why would you want/need
to charge additional fees for a large group of unrelated parts? Any suggestions
for making this enormous task any easier? Do pulled sets sell any better than
just pieces? Are all pieces expected to be washed and cleaned? I have about 25
pounds of sealed bags (new parts), but once you open the bags, handle the parts,
and then put them into the appropriate storage place, they will get slightly
scratched/scuffed. Is this expected, or is there a solution for this?
Sorry for so many questions, but with this many parts, I need to get as much
right as possible the first time around!
|
Adding used parts using the BL "Add Item" page is not your friend. Go to github.com
and search for "BrickStore". Download and install the app.
This app allows you to create a list of mix lots that then generates an .XML
file. That file can then be used on this page, https://www.bricklink.com/invXML.asp
, to upload many lots at one time. It's easy to use, but if you have trouble
look up "how to" videos on youtube.

I've been wanting a better way to mass-upload use parts. Does Brickstore
allow you to price parts at some % of the 6-month average?
|
Yes it does.
You can set your parts to the 6 month average first, then you can increase/decrease
by x%.
One of the beauties of BrickStore is that you can set pricing for thousands of
parts in just one or two commands.

Well I'm sold- thanks!

What they said. Since instruction booklets use pictures, not words, I don't
see a different language being much of a problem.

I've not actually tried this on my own store, but makes sense. Other difference
here vs using your inventory search is that you don't get anything from your
stock rooms since they are not "available" for purchase.

You can kind of do this, but it isn't the greatest. If you go to "My Store"
then "Inventory", under the "Search My Inventory" section, there is a checkbox
for "Items on my Wanted List". Tick this box then just search. The problem
is that is doesn't give you any information about what "wanted list" they
are on if you do find stuff. If you've created a number of list and have
a lot of parts that match, it gets a little tricky, but you at least know you
have it. It also doesn't tell you the needed quantity, again, just that
you have a part.

The whole bypass system confuses me.. what is the intended/expected behaviour
exactly? There isn't such a thing as a ship-to countries list, which a bypass
password could then bypass. The ship-to countries are a result of what you have
specified in your shipping methods. Should the bypass password add the country
to one or more shipping methods but if so, how does the system know which ones?
|
There is a ship-to-country list. It shows up on your Terms page and it shows
all countries that occur in 1 or more of your shippingmethods.
|
That's exactly what I mean: The list was not specified, it is a result of
the shipping methods. If the list was specified, a bypass password could simply
ignore that list. But as there is none specified, what should the bypass password
do?
How does it know which shipping method to pick?
|
It doesn't, you have to Invoice Manually.
|
IMO the system seriously needs an overhaul. We should be able to just specify
anything we want in the shipping methods and then restrict that with a master-setting
on top of that. The bypass procedure would then lifts that restriction, and automatically
find the appropriate shipping method. Right now I find it very confusing.
|
I think it's already much better then years ago.
At the moment I just want to figure out why this buyer doesn't see the password
box.
I placed an order about a month ago with a bypass password for non-shipping-country,
without any problems.
So the big question is, why doesn't it work in my store?

specified in your shipping methods. Should the bypass password add the country
to one or more shipping methods but if so, how does the system know which ones?
|
There is a ship-to-country list. It shows up on your Terms page and it shows
all countries that occur in 1 or more of your shippingmethods.
If a member from a non-shipping country (not on that list) wants to buy from
you, he can do so when you give him the bypass password for non-shipping countries.
The system doesn't need to know which country, the system only has to show
the box to enter the bypass password, when this member opens his shopping cart.
|
I also struggle with the minimum buy bypass, since shipping methods obligatorily
(vacuously) need to have that same minimum buy baked into them - so I guess it
would result in a manual invoice if I give a bypass password, even though I just
want one of my shipping methods to qualify.

| When I list an item I can add comments.
Since the day I joined Bricklink I am using HTML in those comments (most for
vintage items), using Bold, font color and slashes.
It has been a long time since someone ordered one of these items, but I did get
messages from 2 different buyers, who where not able to place an order.
Below the comments field it says:
For security reasons, the special characters are encoded.
My questions are (hopefully someone has the answer):
Is there a list of special characters that I can't use anymore and causes
this problem?
Is HTML causing this problem?
It was working fine all these years. Bold and color font helps me very well to
pick the correct item.
Example:

Adding used parts using the BL "Add Item" page is not your friend. Go to github.com
and search for "BrickStore". Download and install the app.
This app allows you to create a list of mix lots that then generates an .XML
file. That file can then be used on this page, https://www.bricklink.com/invXML.asp
, to upload many lots at one time. It's easy to use, but if you have trouble
look up "how to" videos on youtube.

I've been wanting a better way to mass-upload use parts. Does Brickstore
allow you to price parts at some % of the 6-month average?
|
Yes it does.
You can set your parts to the 6 month average first, then you can increase/decrease
by x%.
One of the beauties of BrickStore is that you can set pricing for thousands of
parts in just one or two commands.

For example, all of my shelving is fitted with corrugated cardboard boxes that

stored inside a larger bag with all of the other 1x4 bricks. This does usually
result in a bag in a bag in a bag which could mean having to open 2 or 3 bags
to put pieces into storage or to retrieve items as they are sold. Some people
really hate this type of storage, but it works for me and cost me very little
money to set up.
What you decide to use for storage depends on how much actual space you have
to use and how much money you are willing to spend to store your inventory.
Always consider the need to make adjustments as you go along, too, as storage
needs change as you add more inventory and as inventory sells.
Good Luck and Have Fun.

Shiny is correct. How you organize is entirely your call, but please start out
simply.
Whatever you use - bricks in bin #2, plates in box #7, minifigs in cabinet #14
- take advantage of a neat feature called 'My Remarks' when listing items.
As you add each lot to your store, you can use the 'My Remarks' text
box to notate where you stored it. Only you can see these remarks; visitors to
your store cannot. When you get an order, you'll note that the 'Remarks'
for each ordered lot is listed with that lot. I believe that by default, 'Remarks'
are shown in each buyer invoice, unless you somehow disable this (I am uncertain
how, that's why I believe it's a default setting).
You'll see that a lot of sellers use 'Comments' instead of 'Remarks'
when adding items; that's why, in some stores you'll see a lot listing
with a footnote similar to "Bin 8" for example. This is perfectly fine; I choose
not to bother my customers with where my inventory is kept. Then again, not every
seller may know about the 'My Remarks' feature.
Alternatively, you can use any kind of software - MS-Word, Excel, etc. - to organize
your inventory. But that's a bit of a pain, in my view. Whatever you're
comfortable with.

Think of the Featured Group items as your shop's front window like a real
life bricks-and-mortar shop would have. It gives you a chance to show off items
that perhaps you have in large quantities, or items that are highly desirable
and rare, or items that you have priced to move quickly or just items that you
might think are neat or that buyers would like to see. Use whatever criteria
you want.
BrickLink will automatically select items for you by showcasing items you have
listed for sale most recently unless you select items for the Featured Groups
yourself. So, if you do not select anything to be Featured, BrickLink will do
the work for you and will automatically update it with new items you have listed
for sale.

Hi CC!
From your locality and the name of your store, I'd infer that you're
somewhere in central Texas; maybe Llano, perhaps Fredericksburg, possibly New
Braunfels, or none of the above. I'm in Pflugerville.
Any one thing you have in your store is termed an 'item'. So even if
you have 350 used Red Brick, 2x4 for sale, each one brick is an 'item'.
Those 350 2x4 Red Bricks together are termed a single 'lot'. And if you
have 1100 new White Brick, 2x4 for sale, each one of those white bricks is also
an 'item', and all of those 1100 2x4 White Bricks together are another
single 'lot'.
To take it a step further, if that's all you currently had for sale in your
store, a statement at the bottom of your listings would read as follows:
"Total 1450 items in 2 lots available".
Another step further. Notice that - for the sake of example - I indicated that
the Red bricks were 'used', and the White bricks were 'new'.
Lots are also separated by their condition (N or U). Thus, if 500 of those 1100
White bricks were used, and the remaining 600 White bricks were new, you would
now have three lots in your store:
(350) Used Brick, 2 x 4 Red
(500) Used Brick, 2 x 4 White
(600) New Brick, 2 x 4 White
and the statement at the bottom of your listings would now read:
"Total 1450 items in 3 lots available".
Now let's include sets in the discussion. Each one single set you have for
sale, regardless of whether you have one each of a few sets or ten each of ten
sets is - you guessed it - an 'item'. If you have three of these for
sale:
all of them in New condition, those three sets together would constitute one
'lot'. But again, if one of them were Used, and the other two were New,
then they would be listed separately, and those same sets would be listed in
two lots.
So now, your store item statement might read:
"Total 1453 items in 5 lots available".
For the sake of simplicity and this explanation, let us just say that, in general,
minifigs are like sets, new or used, and like ones together generally constitute
a single 'lot'.
Now, when it comes to what thing sells better than a similar thing, I suggest
taking advantage of the Price Guide information for sets and parts.
Every set, minifig, part, etc. has a Price Guide link that details the BrickLink
sales data for that thing. For example, here's a link to the price guide
for Harry Potter minifig colhp-19:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?S=colhp-19&ColorID=0
This can give you some guidance on what to sell your item for, if you want to
be fairly competitive.

would be additional LOTS, as would any pre-printed bricks? 3001 with a smile,
with a frown, with different texts, these are each a different lot?

Yep, each one different.

Sorry for so many questions, but with this many parts, I need to get as much
right as possible the first time around!

Start by listing a small amount so you get a slow trickle of orders to learn
from.

BL store setup. Is each color of each part number a LOT? In other words, black
2x4 is a different lot than red 2x4?

A lot is just an article that you have listed for sale. When you create a new
lot, it gets a unique lot ID number. Different kinds of parts will be listed
in your store as different lots by necessity, but theoretically (don't do
it) you could make a separate lot for every single part that you own. You'd
just get an extremely long list of the same kind of part, but they're different
"lots".

Thanks!
