How is it determined which items are featured in the "Featured items"
section on BL's main page, below "Browse LEGO items"? There doesn't
seem to be a rhyme or reason, because there are some really obscure things
there sometimes, like this Paradisa minifig. None available, none sold, released
in 1993, and on a staggering 5 wanted lists

Just got added to another Stop and Ignored list by a member within this thread:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1459625

I'm regrettably unable to tell this sensitive individual the pleasure I get
out of such expressed pettiness nowadays. Oh well, maybe they'll read this
and all will be well with the little darling Though no need to stop-list. Never
have, nor believe I ever will buy from your store. And as to ignore; well you
most certainly will miss-out on some fun if not interesting times.

That said, whereas in the past I've argued against the "Ignore" feature
on BL, I've come to appreciate it more over the years. I've never used
it myself, but having certain others use it makes for let's say, less
peskiness

You be you, is what I promote today

Hello!
Two questions on how to download inventory from BrickLink:

a) For a full download of all parts in the BrickLink catalog, I would like to
include the size dimensions (cm). There is a checkbox option to "Include
Dimensions", but this downloads the information in stud size, not in cm.
Is there an option to include the cm size dimensions with my download?

b) For a download of my own store inventory, I see that it pulls in the Remarks
column. However, it does not include the Comments field. Is there an option to
include the Comments field as a column with my download?

Thank you,
Dennis

I have a couple of sets from ~15 years. They've been in storage for the past
10 years. Now, I noticed that some LBG parts have changed to Old Light Gray.

Has anyone else seen such metamorphosis ?

Hey Y'all -

I'm considering hanging up the bricks. This old Gorilla is getting tired
and losing a bit of motivation. Hiring sorting monkeys is possible, but not
really a good option for my store size. I have a small store here in coastal
NC about 30 minutes north of Myrtle Beach, SC. At this point, I have NOT liquidated
anything, so my full inventory is available and hasn't been cherrypicked.

I have approximately 111k parts in roughly 10k lots with a BL 6 Mos avg of
around $9.5K. I would like to nab a 40% sale price. Also available at a bargain
would be about 30 TuffStore cabinets with hundreds of drawer dividers, at least
a 100 lbs give or take of unsorted lego, and maybe another 150 pieces or so of
unlisted minifigs. Inventory quality is a mix of new and used with the used
being very good and the drawers very accurate, as is confirmed by my 100% feedback
score after 2 1/2 years of selling and 1600+ orders.
I'm not opposed to shipping, but it would be expensive for you. I would
much prefer for you to come on down to my neck of the jungle and bring a big
van, or a small trailer. I can shrink wrap the cabinets with inventory inside,
but because I am keeping about 20 or so cabinets, some of the inventory would
need to be bagged. Pictures and/or a Brickstore file is available on request.
Shoot me your thoughts, questions, or comments.

Gorilla

The app figureitout.app/blfigure used to help id minifigures seems to have been
changed or eliminated. Is there a new site or address for something similar?
It sure was pretty helpful.
Thanks for any info.

I have a new with broken seals 6276. I am trying to find out the bag count in
this set so I can confirm completeness. I feel like everything is there but want
to be sure. It does have (4) pieces that arent bagged and I know those are correct.
I have gone as far as asking Lego and they couldnt find it in their databases.
any help is greatly appreciated

Did not know Target carried it a few years ago. Would be cool to have one of

If I order from DD bricks Thailand, what kind of extra taxes can I expect when
it gets to Canada? How long will it take?
This is my first time doing this, and I appreciate your help.

Hi

This below may be a duplicate warning.

We got an e-mail that ' someone logged in to my account', 'contact
support' and then "Log device out of your account'.

Sender: support@brickslink.org

So is this the way accounts are hacked? If so, Bricklink should place a warning
to prevent this!

Regards

Erik

The recent post by Saitobricks.ca about the Bricklink branded duster has me wondering
if an ordinary make-up brush would work as a viable cleaning tool for my collection
of sets on display.

My collection of sets on display has expanded quite a bit recently. In the last
year alone, it has gone from only three sets to seven sets at the current time.
It's becoming a bit of a chore to keep them clean and dust free of dust.
More sets are in the planning stage for later on down the road.

Anyone have any experience cleaning lego with something like a make-up brush?

Hello Everyone!

I was going through some old bricks that I have and noticed something very interesting...

On the 1 x 6 bricks without Bottom Tubes, with cross supports. Item # crssprt02

The studs have the old style script along with the modern style.

Anyone else see this? I only have 5 of them and the are all that way, so I'm
assuming that's how they all are.

Going through a bin that had been buried at the back of the closet. Found a note
inside:
Oops! Just realized you said not to take any trains apart. Here are the pieces
I hadn't gotten to yet.


And this ladies and gentlemen, is the reason she's the EX business partner.

Prices for letters up again in April.

Justification : costs and less mail.

My guess is that part of the reason for less mail is, you guessed it, the fact
that the price keeps going up.
