I think you can’t still get some “test colour” bricks from some stores here and
on the site the didn’t like the original name of this one. Or you can hope they
get released in a future set! I wouldn’t advise painting tho as that would be
sad for the bricks

Hello!
Is there any way I can get Lego bricks a certain color that doesn’t exist on
the catalog? Like, can I message Lego? Or do I just need to paint the piece?
Any help is appreciated.

Btw, I know that “selling modified bricks” is against tos, and so is selling
the “test bricks” so don’t start jumping all over me. I just want to know if
there is a way FOR MY PERSONAL MOCS.

Thanks again! 😊

Indeed. The distinction between wants and needs is rather arbitrary.

I’m a software developer so I do know. There are lots of options as russel said.
I think the problem is not difficulty, but lack of dev resource.

The most I have ever seen them send is 6 messages per account. Then the bot makes
a new account and sends out 6 more.

Would it be possible to block any messages containing key words such as "everythingeshop"
the same way we block SMS in mobile phones?

There are several solutions we are considering - we will see what works.

You have to buy something before you can upgrade to a seller account. It can
be something small, perhaps a single minifigure.

I think they already do that but many accounts are being opened with each one
only sending a few messages out.

When I wanted my first positive feedback for selling, I reached out to the seller,
and they gave me feedback the same day.
There are many sellers here who would appreciate your purchase and leave positive
feedback for you. All you have to do is ask.

In order to get feedback, you have to make a purchase. bricklink is mainly for
selling individual parts and pieces and sets so if you just are trying to sell
a whole bunch of bulk a local marketplace may be better
