  I don't think most new users know the official Lego colours any more than
they know BL colours. BL colour names are used widely outside of BL too. Changing
would probably cause more pain than benefit.

You have misinterpreted my suggestion. I did not suggest changing I asked to
have the Lego colour names added to the colour charts.

Actually, you didn't really make any suggestions. The closest thing to a
suggestion was: "...could the Bricklink developers not come up with a better
idea than the current colour chart for the catalogue. Perhaps similar to the
very old and outdated Peeron one"


I agree with calsbricks that new customers that come to BL probably don't
know the official Lego colors any more then BL's. I also agree with what
you suggested above that it would be nice to have the Lego official colors added
to the color chart, providing that Lego dose not cause legal issues with the
Lego Group.

  Meh. Is it really a big deal? People misunderstand each other all the time. I
get misunderstood on the forum pretty much every day (including today). I don't
think it's anything to worry about.

say??????

  Hi
Since the website is now in another hands (since a certain amount of time now),
i am afraid that Bricklink start to capitalize in some weird ways and decide
to show some advertisings (for anything) in one or another corner.

My suggestion is to keep this website clean, for the comfort of all members.
This is a important trait of Bricklink since the beginning.

Thanks
from all members

You may have some malware on your system.

  Nearly all of my orders are paid in a different currency to my listed prices
as they are in US$ and I am a UK seller. Mainly GBP but I accept many currencies.
The only price difference I have received different the invoice was for Japanese
Yen. I expected this as (I believe) they cannot pay the .xx part of the amount
but must round up (or down?).

If you are setting your own currency rather than using XE.com then this could
account for the difference. Especially as the markets are so volatile just now
due to Brexit.

Just out of curiosity, what is the advantage of listing your inventory in US
dollars instead of your own default currency, especially sense most of your orders
are from your home country?
