  Hi BL
Unless this already exits in some form (if it do, please inlighten me as to how
it works!), I suggest a button for “show items on wanted lists” when visiting
stores. Quite often when I’m visting stores, browsing around for additional items,
I stumble upon items marked as “on want list”. It would be a lot easier if it
was possible to just see all items in store that are already on my wanted lists,
instead of having to search through 100’s of pages in different categories...
I am aware of the whole ‘buy wanted items’ auto function, so it’s not that I’m
missing... It’s more when already committed to a store, I wanna stock up and
save on postage.

Thanks for an otherwise excellent site!

Best regards
Martin, Denmark

Let's leave it at that. Speaking as a buyer, I am all for hanging up a WL
for a month to see higher quantity listings.

"The mark of an educated mind [is] to be able to entertain a thought without
accepting it."

Can't go wrong in quoting Aristotle.

In fact I think the phrase should be adopted as a motto of the forum, to be hung
across the top of the page. It would be a beacon of idea, for forum users. Sadly,
I don't think many of the "regulars" would embrace it as their credo. For
too many of us, the guiding beacon is 'being right' or more succinctly,
'not to be perceived as being wrong'

I will say after reading your posts for some time, you don't seem to suffer
the same frailty of character. I think I posted some time back "who is this masked
man" out of admiration of your character. It might of been you, there are actually
several forum regulars that display such grace, just not all.

Anyway, we are taking a drive through the Northern Cascades, hopefully today.
Gotta get my coffee on, and my offspring up and going.

Sorry, I'm late to the game, guys! Didn't know we weren't done with
this

  Sylvain has spent a lot of time familiarizing himself with BrickLink

Really As the original topic was selling and how to increase sales. How exactly
does one "familiarize" oneself having never transacted as a seller here? Not
to mention very few buying transactional experiences to "familiarize himself"
as you term it.

  and is a frequent contributor here

A joke, right. I'm to respect his opinions because he's one of the forum
regulars? Nope. From my experience here in the forum, that doesn't convince
me of one's gravitas.

  There's no need to be so relentlessly dismissive.

Do you mean, not to be as dismissive as was he in his initial reply to a posted
suggestion? Well, here I agree with you. Should of just let him spew as he'd
like. I didn't need to respond.

He is a smart man who I do respect. But sorry to burst the bubble of you and
a few others here, there are those I'll listen to regarding the topic at
hand (as I've repeated ad nauseam in this thread) before I'll digest
Sylvain's vast experience in the matter.

For me, Sylvain is an intelligent blarney. Gifted, yes. But not experience enough
to offer credible advise on the topic, as I see it. So please don't portray
him as a victim that needs defending, it's so damned disingenuous. Sylvain
is capable more than most, in making a case for himself.

-Cory

I'm hitting sack now.

Continue on boys! I'm sure you'll have accomplished great deeds! here
in the forum, by the time we next meet.

  stop giving me names. I’m not your pigeon or any other pet.
   That’s condescending.



" If there is no audience there is no show. "


I'm surprised that as frequent of a user you are you took twice as long to
get to the point I got too. The best way to deal with trolls is to not feed them
(though I do fully understand this snack I'm writing to you will be eaten
readily)

Until we get actual moderators that have the ability to police bad behavior the
ignore button and pity are our only tools


Trolls are misunderstood creatures. It’s just not acceptable to use their identity
in a derogatory manner. It’s racist or something? Like, OMG

Sorry, just an attempt at humor

As to the name calling “troll” I don’t mind that you do so, Crystal. Nor did
I mind when Sylvain replied to my posted suggestion, by opening-up with the signature
Sylvain Slam...

In my opening statement
"an idea that briefly visited my headspace some time ago"

Sylvain’s opening statement in reply:
"No, no, you tempter, I won’t ask if it felt alone in there!"


You may have noticed (that is if you haven’t overly used the ignore feature)
that all the others that posted their honest thoughts and critics, received only
honest, positive replies, or no reply from me. I try to be positive and build
others up, but some simply need a spanking (not in the way you're thinking,
Sylvain! I like you, but not in that way )

I don’t mind the banter, and I still enjoy reading your inputs. I am sorry you’ve
been tamed here in the forum, I miss the old Crystal. The one that expressed
her strong unabashed opinions. Can I please say hello to her again. Can she come
out and play?

To those that have no problem using the ignore feature, I would encourage it
be used on my profile. For a self-serving reason, though: it's just one less
sourpuss I'll have to deal with in my posts, is the way I've seen it
for some time, now.

I agree. But in all fairness we can't ignore the question in the back of
our minds: When is this guy finally going to buy some more LEGO?

My wallet has the reverse question

Though getting around 700€ of LEGO for around 15€ thanks to coupons and destocking
made us both quite happy a couple months ago


Wow! Then my question changes... Why is this guy not selling any LEGO?


What, with all the problems you sellers continuously whine about on the forum?


Besides, MY precious, MINE!

You're here discussing its problems out of your own free will, who's
silly now?
