Yes, I should be!

You still unaware of my recent communications with Morris (lego.12vtrains) and
wannes_dn in which we have discussed some odds and surprises that we cannot figure
out at all. It is just crazy! (let's put aside that even if we figure out
how to fix it, we wouldn't know how to convince bricklink's inventory
admins, specially the one who drives McLaren P1!)

Did Dan consider any prize for those who submit inventory change requests in
a row for vintage train sets?

Oh, you're just jealous because I found a 1980s train set which has the parts
list printed right on the set box, which makes it ridiculously easy to see exactly
what was included.

  Hi,

There is any way to see, in the new wanted list, the most cheap stores for each
part in a wanted list as I can do in the old/classic wanted list?

Yes.
Open a WL.
Click “More Options” next to its search field.
Right column, “Items for Sale Options:” click “Show” and look at the options
below, especially the sorting option as by “Store Name” is the stupid and useless
default.
Then click “Apply”.

Note that there’s a “Best Price” sorting option next to “Lowest” and “Highest”
but no one knows what that means.

  Did you know if you submit the exact same inventory request 37 times in a row that you will get a prize? It's a super-secret Easter egg built deep into the site code by Dan himself.

I never believed it myself, but one day I tried it just to see and it's true! About a week later I got a brand new McLaren P1 delivered to my house - and it wasn't a toy or model, but a real automobile.

I've heard from a very reliable source that they send someone to eliminate you if you try it more than once, so I never tried again. Besides, the cost of even just changing the oil in my P1 is outrageous.

  As a sidenote, could this image be given added prominence in the set's page?
http://www.bricklink.com/TL/2667.jpg

That image is currently visible when clicking on the instructions entry for the
set. As far as changing how it is viewed/where it is located, that is a request
you would need to make to the catalog administrators.

  Why not add a feature to the site where you can select multiple models and then
Easy Buy them all at once?

For example, say I upload two small models to the site and I want to buy both.
I could Easy Buy both models at the same time and possibly find one store selling
the parts for both models!

Already exist. At the Wantlist tab, go to the Search or Buy page.

This guys already provided the source 5 years ago. He opened a MISB/MIB set:

The relevent photos are

I do not have any sourve for keeping 3040 as alternate. The chance that was included
in later releases of this set is low I think.
