| It would be nice to mark messages as unread.... Not that anyone at the development
team is gonna see it, but I figured I would bring it up anyways.
(Still 6 month purge is annoying)

completes the stickered counterparts for the set

If you have or can at least do the requests, I have some parts in
that set that aren't added that have stickers. If adding to the BL catalog
was a little more simple, I would add so much...

Don't have that set. Looks like there are 4 stickered pieces missing . 2
cheese wedges, a curved slope and the black fender.
|
This is funny. I meant Heh. This one is missing some too...

That's all I got to say.

| When parting out sets, I have a few methods of storage. However, sorting by "Recently
Updated" (Not just listed as listed only shows new lots) would help greatly.
If part A was increased in quantity (From a consolidation of a part out), it
would show up on the "sort by recently updated" function early on compared to
20-30 pages back. Pretty simple addition I would think.

| Too long? I'll take care of that: Fix 1 bug or add 1 suggestion a week or
4 a month and BL has a ton of happier sellers and buyers. Plus it shows progress.
Many of us know that there are many problems and suggestions that need fixing
and adding. Please take these debates elsewhere. I just want to publish an idea
that will not only show progress with Bricklink, but slowly make everyone happy.
How hard would it be to fix 1 bug or add one suggestion per week? Here is a couple
really simple ones off the top of my head.
Update the statistics pages. All of them.
Add percentage to feedback like this: jamesuniverse (###) 100%
Fix the download orders function (can't download while ignoring filed orders)
Now please don't use this to list every simple fix. I just listed mine. Even
if the fix was small, imagine how much happier the community would be? Progress!
Who cares if it is so miniscule. It shows 3 things.
Progress
Listening to Members
And most importantly, Communication!
This could be done weekly. 1 week to fix 1 small bug or idea? I find that reasonable.
If not, how about 4 per monthly cycle! Of course you can do more, but seeing
progress would:
Open many stores again.
Lessen the forum debates
Probably get BL a better name (as in reputation)
Please don't let this be a debate again, but I feel this could be helpful.
You don't need to build BL 2,3,4,5+.0 to replace 1.0. Just fix a couple things
every once in a while and boom. Happy members, yet you can still do whatever
admins do. :p
I try to stay out of the debates, riots, suggestions, etc. But from what I have
heard. Not much is good.
Hope this doesn't get me stop listed. :p Just trying to be realistic and
have a little peace around here.

to what you find on Swappa (see attached).
This would be especially useful for new parts and minifigs as they settle into
their natural supply-and-demand averages. It would also be helpful to have a
visual on how prices for old parts behave when new sets hit the market containing
parts that haven't been available retail for a while.

Would love that feature. It's possible to get the information for the past
6 months by parsing the whole price guide page (catalogPG.asp, not priceGuide.asp),
but this generates far more traffic than necessary...
Looking back 2-3 years would be interesting too.

More than just that. How about not purge data 7 months old..... Is it really
that big of a deal to extend to a year or two?

Thank you for doing this! I may actually part out these sets now.

While I am hoping to learn BrickStock (Mac Brickstore), I am still using the
old method and man. This is annoying.
Few requests.
Checkbox to show what would consolidate on the modify prices and values page.
Automatically/Checkbox for showing the OLD remarks IF they consolidate on BOTH
Values and Verify page.
It is practically impossible for me to part out a set that consolidates a lot
of lots in which I use a storage system that demands the remarks system.
Now I guess I need to learn Brickstore/Brickstock.

I buy Sterilite bins from Kroger. $1 for a shoebox size, or $3 for a 16 quart
size. On the side I have the category it's in: Bricks, Technic, Modified
Plate, etc.
I started with just the $1 bins. Then got so much stuff in bins that I had to
move the contents of a bin into a larger one. Then I started "fragmenting" the
bins. So now as my store has grown, the "Bricks" became a "1x1 bricks," "1x2+
bricks," "2x2 & 2x3 bricks," "2x4 bricks," and "2x6+ bricks". If I get a ton
of 2x2 bricks, I'd separate the 2x2-2x3 bin, and so on. Basically once a
bin gets so full that it takes me more than 30 seconds to find a lot in that
bin, it's time to fragment. That way the storage option grows as the store
grows.
|
Edit: I go to the craft section of walmart and buy the clear baggies they have
there--they sell in packs of 100, $1 for the small bags, and $2 for medium
or large. Lots are separate by bag and then put into those bins to make it easier
to find all of a specific part--no parts are just freely lying there.
|
Although this is a great system, my storage system incorporates this along with
other methods in which I have maximized efficiency. I have less room for error
and picking time is cut in half. I can pull, pack, and weigh some 30 lot (let's
say average 3 parts per lot?) orders in less than 6 minutes.
