As a new user, one thing that's somewhat confused me are the brick levels.
While more frequent users of the website may be able to easily remember what
color corresponds to what tier (as seen at https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=54),
new users will likely not.

My suggestion is to add an on hover to brick images which contains the numerical
tier of the brick, similar to what I did here: https://imgur.com/a/NJ0FCDg using
inspect element. Doing such wouldn't be difficult, as all it involves is
adding a `title="Number here"` to the img element that displays the brick.

I'm glad to see TLG putting animals in more sets lately. When viewing a
set's catalog page, the 'Consists Of' list includes 'parts'
and 'minifigures'. I'd like to see 'animals' listed as a
third item.

Hi,
when creating carts, there is the function to see what `wanted list` the items
are from on each cart.

Would it be possible to transfer this to the order list once the order has been
created.

I order for a few wanted list kits at a time, so what I`m having to do at the
moment, is print out the order, and then make notes against each item, which
wanted list its for.

It would be nice if the wanted list info was carried across from the `create
carts` creen, into the cart when created - and on the order too.

Simon

Why can't we get an automatic recognition of our local time zone?

In the search function why can it not stay on what we choose, selectinjg our
location and it stay there unless we change it.

I often search for parts for minifigures. Something I think would be extremely
beneficial and make searching a lot simpler and quicker would be the option to
exclude something.

For example, if I'm looking for a female head, but I know I don't want
lipstick, it would be cool if I could exclude all search results that include
"lipstick". Or when I'm looking for a male part (which often aren't
marked as such), being able to exclude "female" would reduce the amount
of search results I have to scroll past.

Shipping is relatively expensive in my country and many of us prefer to buy and
sell locally, a majority offering local pickup. (Quicker and safer.) It would
be a big time saver if the state code (2-3 characters) could be added wherever
the country location name appears, especially in search results for parts. Or
just adjacent to every store name. (A toggleable setting perhaps?) Or just
a mouseover? At the moment I have to open every store name link to see whether
it's in my state or not.

A symbol denoting whether the store offers local pickup would be icing on the
cake.

Do I need to provide more use case details?

Hello, I'm very happy to see the my parts list that helps me scan through
the many sets I have bought to use for parts. I would like a search function
to be added by either part name or part number. My current method to see if I
have a part in the inventory is to hop around through multiple pages to narrow
down the page with the right range of part numbers.

Or, am I missing something? Is there a better way to locate parts in my list?

A quicker way of deleting designs from MyStudio would be useful, instead of having
to click on each one and scrolling down to 'delete'. A tick box option
where they are listed would be really useful!

Thanks

Please consider adding a link from each item’s page to a discussion area for
that item. This would allow the community to explain how the item is used.

Would it be possible to get the Color Guide page to be sortable by the column
headings? I'd like to be able to easily see what colors are the most common
for example, or which ones have only existed for a set period of time.

Cheers,

Andrew

Hi all

I just had yet another case, with a first time buyer, who did not understand
nor know how to to complete an order and file feedback.
Nor do they know that they have to do anything except receiving the item.

I also have some users which do not care.

Some complain, that as firs time buyers, they would like an email on the first
order, how to act, what to do and what to click. Some literally need illustrative
pictures
Even that once selected "completed", it is needed to click "save"

They state:

Quote: "A separate email about doing the status change straight from BrickLink
would be great. No one generally wants to read help pages or has time to learn
about something you usually don’t have to do when ordering things."

And

Quote: "Since we haven’t order from here before and the site isn’t exactly
user friendly we didn’t know the case had to be completed by us. The link you
sent only had instructions on giving feedback, not changing a status. It’s completed
now. Maybe you can include the info that the status has to be changed by the
receiver straight into the message if it’s compulsory and not optional."

I think that BL is user friendly, but not everyone sees it this way. Btw this
is a UX designer who sent this

In quite some cases I never get to know that buyers ever have received their
items.

Would it be possible, that on first order, that BL sends some information to
buyers what to do - in detail?

Far too often, i'm finding people do not read or aware of comments when placing
an order. Even when they are obvious and have important information.

Can we introduce an acknowledgement when placing an order of all items with a
comment to protect sellers?

Many thanks Matt

Dear all.

First of all, really cool running this place, I have a lot of respect for all
of you who keep it running.
Could it be an option to divide the decorated groups into 2. 1 with prints and
1 with stickers.
It will make looking for some special decorated bricks a lot easier.
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely
Jan Wisniewski

Is there a way for me to upload Lego inventory to a store with the intention
of selling the entire store instead of becoming a seller? I was trying to just
use My Collection but there's no price info. I don't want to have to
set up Paypal business and all that if I'm just going to try to sell the
whole store all at once.

Hi, it would be great if the "Submit Changes" button either existed on
the top of the page or if it were static at the bottom of the page instead of
having to scroll all the way to the bottom of an inventory page to update.

If you are refunding someone $2.99 on the "issue refund" page, the amount
box is scrollable and that $2.99 can accidentally be set to $2, $1, or even -$5,
or higher if you scroll the other way. Not ideal.

Hey

Would it be possible to have Swish as a payment method. It’s the most common
payment between Swedish customers and Swedish stores. If I take all my sales
to Swedish customers I would say 98% of those orders been payed with Swish.

Best Regards
Johan

Hey

I think it would be nice if you could show featured and highlighted stores per
country. I think that would help smaller stores in resp. Country to increase
their selling. I suppose there are many stores in smaller countries that never
will reach the sell volumes the bigger stores has in US/Europe

Just a suggestion from SkaraborgJohan in Sweden

Hi all, hi BL-team,

It would be great to have automated order status reminders "don't forget
to mark your order as received / completed / ..." and feedback reminders
"don't forget to leave feedback".

That's all folks

So I love the new feature called My Collection, you can add sets and loose parts
to your list.

It would be great if like rebrickable.com you could search through these already
owned parts from your wanted lists. IE after a MOC is created and you want to
buy the parts if you could search your own inventory, sets and loose parts or
just loose parts or just your sets before you go to buy additional bricks it
would be a useful feature for everyone.

Thanks!

When adding a part via the "Add Item" page, the color of the part in
the picture does not match the color selected. This can be problematic when
adding multiple parts of different colors as well as ensuring the color or picture
exists.

While clicking on an increment or decrement button within a qty box, the scroll
capability should be disabled to prevent accidentally increasing or decreasing
qty. This can be especially annoying with a mouse that scrolls by touch, i.e.,
an Apple mouse.

There is a button that says "Add Order Items to my wanted list" on the
order details page. This button adds the items that you just ordered to your
wanted list as "wanted" items. Why would I want the items I just ordered.
MVP for this suggestion:

- Have button to add items to wanted list "have" qty on order page
- Have ability to select which wanted list each lot is going to for multiple
wanted lists
