The reporter let me know that the video was released on Friday, but I forgot

Author: | Saitobricks.ca | Posted: | Mar 25, 2024 12:45 | Subject: | Another Question About Unreleased Items | Viewed: | 149 times | Topic: | General | |
| Was thinking more about the doomed sets in the unreleased catagory, and went
for a second look.
I clicked on a item and noticed that the banner on the top said, "This Item
was Likely Not Released".
Key word for me "LIKELY".
How are we supposed to know for sure if a item was not released if no one can
put one up for sale?!?
So my request is that you allow sellers to sell the item, but only in the conditions
of sealed or new.

| I recently sold a set, and the buyer came back saying there are SEVERAL missing
pieces. Those are all LARGE pieces (not real cheap). He also said he checked
inventory against BrickSet (Not BrickLink). I'd like to give the buyer the
benefit of the doubt, but when there are 20 large missing parts (Including a
linear actuator), I'm rather not sure.

| If you are using a modern smartphone to satisfy picture requests, it is very
likely that the pictures contain location data as to precisely where you were
located when you took the picture. Unless you turn that off, or strip the EXIF
data, you are telling the recipient where you store your inventory.
Something to keep in mind.

| I have received two separate "Login From New Device" emails in the last
six hours. I am well aware of all the hacking attempts and fraudulent sites pretending
to be Bricklink out there.
Both emails game from "support@policyking.net". I don't believe either
email was legit and I have ignored both so far. Still, I did login briefly last
night and thought that I should ask if they were legit incase they were.
I still doubt their legitimacy and logged in from a "bricklink.com" shortcut

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

Author: | xdennisma | Posted: | Mar 15, 2024 16:03 | Subject: | How to download size and comments columns | Viewed: | 50 times | Topic: | General | |
| 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

Author: | GorillaBrick | Posted: | Mar 14, 2024 12:18 | Subject: | NC Gorilla Store for Sale (Maybe) | Viewed: | 88 times | Topic: | General | |
| 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.

| 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?

| When I first started selling I bulk ordered plastic deli containers from a wholesale
restaurant store. Great for small stores
I quickly moved to the plastic baggie
Each part has it's own bag, and then within that bag are the separate colors.
Each color has their own bag. Then all similar pieces go into one of those 18
gallon storage tubs. Example: all normal bricks have 1 bin, the modified bricks
have their own.
The problem is, it still takes me forever to go through the bin to find the correct
part bag, to then go through that bag for the color bag.
I can't afford enough drawers to have the drawer system I want.. but do yall
have any suggestions on what I can do now without spending a ton to help with
storage?!

Author: | cfarrugia | Posted: | Feb 23, 2024 11:48 | Subject: | Feedback on Developing an Analytics App | Viewed: | 119 times | Topic: | General | |
| Hello BrickLink Community,
I'm in the early stages of developing an analytics app specifically for BrickLink
store owners and am seeking your valuable feedback. The goal of this app is to
provide insightful analytics that can help store owners make informed decisions,
optimize their inventory, and enhance their store's performance.
Here's what I envision the app will offer:
- Detailed sales analytics
- Inventory management insights
- Trend analysis to predict future demand
I would love to hear from you about:
1. What are the biggest challenges you face in managing your BrickLink store?
2. Are there specific analytics or data points you wish you had easy access to?
3. Have you used any analytics tools before, and if so, what did you like
or dislike about them?
4. What features would make an analytics app truly valuable for you?
Your experiences, challenges, and insights are incredibly important to me. They
will guide the development of this app to ensure it meets your needs and addresses
the real pain points of managing a BrickLink store.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts and feedback. I'm
here to listen and incorporate your ideas into making something that genuinely
benefits the BrickLink community.
Looking forward to your responses!
