I'm sorry to say that the user experience on Bricklink is terrible. I'd
thought that the acquisition by The Lego Group would bring investment to improve
usability, but nothing has happened. It's immensely disappointing.

1. The search function seems to be geared around buying pieces, not simply searching
the database. Why does it bring up items for sale by default? Why does it order
search results in such a strange way by default?
2. Features for managing parts lists are poor. There's no ability to merge
lists that have parts in common (BL just complains that the parts already exist).
Indeed, it's not even possible to use the 'upload' function to upload
an xml file that has previously been downloaded from Bricklink. Despite that,
it is possible to use an xml file to create a new wanted list. This is obviously
completely unintuitive.
3. It's still not possible to order Bricks and Pieces from Bricklink. This
is such an obvious thing to do that it shouldn't need to be said.
4. Orders seem to be deleted from the order list after only a few months. Why
is this necessary?
5. It is not possible to automatically mark pieces as bought when they have been
ordered.

Please please separate buyer and seller addresses on a hybrid account.

Keep one main address set fixed on the account, but let sellers have the option
to use separate shipping addresses that do not have an impact on your store status.

I find it ridiculous that my store gets closed if I want to have something shipped
to another country.

Amazon, eBay, etc all have the option to change a shipping address.

Please implement this!

Hello. This is my first post. Be patient with me.

I would like to be able to mark a set as in my inventory. I would like to mark
individual bricks as in my inventory. I would like to go to a random set and
then this site lets me know if I have enough pieces in my inventory to build
that set.

(this is implemented on Peeron but not here, from what I can see)

Thank you.

Hi all,

Is it possible to add a sort option on seller in the Items For Sale tab on the
parts page?
At this point of time each color is seperately shown as intended.

As I am often looking for more colors of the same part it is convenient if I
can sort on seller. So I can easily see if a certain seller has more than one
color available.

Regards,
Dennis
