  Hi,

After all, thanks for this website ans studio, it's really great tools to
create and find parts !

My idea is to have the possibility to create an "have list" like the "wanted
list" but to reference my parts and so to be abble to make difference between
want / have lists to know wich parts i need to purchase. it will be great for
multipart/large model so i can purchase and work on a first part and continue
searching for other part but making a different wanted list for different submodels
...

I don't know if it's really clear ...

Let me know

Thanks by advance

Mr

Have you seen the website Rebrickable? It's fantastic for keeping inventory
of what you have as well as create wanted lists for parts you need to build MOCs
or other sets. It also Bricklink sellers are also integrated with it so you can
create a list there to use for buying on Bricklink

A SWAT van won't qualify.

I agree with the suggestion. I'd like to see any vehicle that someone submitted
get approved and inventoried and added to the set inventory. But I think the
ones that were added didn't sell really well or for more than their parts,
so Bricklink didn't see it as worth the time.

  Hello! I'm net1986 from South Korea!
I would like to suggest something today.

First of all I apologize for my poor English grammar, please understand.

This is what I would suggest this time.

"I wish there was function to view information of just part product from the
set, Not whole set. And function to order those just part product."



For example,
1. I want to get only police swat van from set 60008 Museum Break-in.(don't
need any part like figs or Museum)
2. But there is only brick information for whole set(Unnecessary a lot of information
confuses me)
3. It takes a lot of hard work to analyze for only just the swat van.
4. And It's very hard to order each part brick for the van



What I mean is that I wish there was a function to view a only part product(just
swat van of set 60008)and I wish I would order those part in way "easy buy".

I know that the "east buy" function already exists.
It's very helpful for restorers.
But now, It adjust only set product or MOC product as I know.

So, I wish the "easy buy" function is more enhanced(add part product from set)


I hope you guys understand my words.
reply me, thanks.
Best regard,

This already exists, for some sets, via special assemblies.

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=P&catString=961

But still, someone has to go through the manual working out what parts are needed
for each assembly.

I actually added a couple of special assemblies such as the Whomping Willow and
the Ford Anglia, and being one of the one sellers for each, those sold almost
immediately, even after listing them again. Another one I did was the Giant Ant-man
- sold 2 of them instantly after posting them.

But as Randy mentioned, it sounds like a nightmare for them to try to manage
so I can understand why they only did a small test run. It's unfortunate
though, because a site like BL is perfect for people looking for just these parts
of the sets.

* 
coldis2-4 (Inv) Dewey Duck, Disney, Series 2 (Complete Set with Stand and Accessories)

* Add 1 Part bb664pb01 Reddish Brown Minifigure, Weapon Slingshot with Dark Tan Band Pattern (Extra)

Comments from Submitter:
Just opened a Dewey sealed CMF and it included 2 slingshots. Assuming this should be added as an extra (as per the official LEGO pictures) and not added as a Regular item.

When you select the Studio tab and have that page active, the icon description
changes from Market to Shop (the old description). I noticed the font appears
slightly different (I think because the Studio description doesn't bold like
it does when active under Market or Community).

Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 5005253  Name: Christmas Tree Ornament (Bag with Reindeer) polybag
* 
5005253-1 (Inv) Christmas Tree Ornament (Bag with Reindeer) polybag
28 Parts, 1 Gear, 2018
Sets: Holiday & Event: Christmas

* Change 2 Part White {35463 Tile, Modified 1 x 1 with Tooth / Ear Vertical, Triangular to 15070 Plate, Modified 1 x 1 with Tooth Vertical}

Comments from Submitter:
This is my first change request, so I apologize if I've filled this incorrectly. The inventory lists 2x 35463 (white) but it should be 2x 15070 (white). I have the set here in front of me, and the instructions also show the proper piece.

I'm 100% in agreement with you that a piece with a sticker on it is considered
used. But for example, say I have a sheet of stickers from a set that are unused
and I cut out each individually and sell the brand new piece with its unused
sticker along with it? It's similar to the Special Assemblies where they
are separated from the complete set and require their stickers to be cut from
the original sheet. I feel that the New option should still exist, but only used
for that specific case (as rare as it may be).

  Whenever I am looking up a stickered part in the catalog to identify, I then
look at past and current sales of this part. So my pet peeve is this: how can
a stickered part possibly be listed as 'new'?? Just by the fact that
you took the sticker off the sheet and attached it to the part makes it, by definition,
USED! It doesn't matter if you never used this part to build the set, it
is still used! Is there any way we can disable the 'new' button when
listing these types of parts?

Thank-you Marek! I can't seem to be able to add lines from here though, that's
the part that concerns me. When I try to do an add from the other way, it says
it can't since it's still pending. But, under Edit Inv I do see now another
column called EXT. If the line entry shows as Type R (Regular), do I add the
extras in the column EXT or is that something else? I thought I needed a new
line for the extras.

By the way, is there a link to information about the auto-population magic that
seemed to happen when I put in the set #? I'm confused how it seemed to accurately
pull all but 2 items (which it had me confirm type and colour for those). Because,
the minifigures also show as separate parts rather than the complete assembly
(as I've put in the notes on that entry). I really apologize for all of the
questions; this will seem to basic to me once I get a couple of run-throughs
but I think I'm missing some bits and pieces based on the information guides
I'm reading.

I also wasn't sure since it's pending if I can do a change to the inventory

  Hello everyone,

We are pleased to announce that we have made another appointment. StormChaser,
who was appointed as Inventories Administrator last year, has now been promoted
to Catalog Administrator.

This is an important step for BrickLink. We haven't had a Catalog Admin appointment
for over nine years, and this is the first time someone has moved from the Inventories
side of the system to the Catalog side.

We believe StormChaser is highly qualified for this position. In addition to
an outstanding year as an Inventories Admin, he has had years of intense experience
with every area of the BrickLink Catalog. He has made many thousands of corrections,
uploaded an enormous amount of new data, and has solved a number of LEGO mysteries
over the years. So we're very pleased he has agreed to accept this position,
and we look forward to his activity in this new area.

We will be be making another appointment soon to fill his former position as
Inventories Administrator.

Russell

I'm still relatively new to Bricklink, but for as long as I've been here,
I've only seen StormChaser being incredibly helpful in all aspects of both
the forum and the catalog. Congratulations StormChaser! Thank-you for everything
you do!

-Sarah

I had found one of the sets of 75952 seemed off, like the edges were sharper
for the cardboard but I shrugged it off. I just realized after looking at 2 of
them side by side and empty that they put out two different versions of the 75952
- I don't mean a difference in the artwork but one has the traditional seals,
while the other is the glued together kind where you feel a sharper cardboard
exposed edge and it has the push in tabs to open it (no seals).

What usually happens for these if listing the box? The one that has to be "ripped"
open due to adhesive is far less desirable than the one that has the regular
seals, but there's no differentiation and I don't recall ever seeing
this with a set before.

Hi,

You can use http://www.goatleg.com/ to look up the minifigs.

you can search on:

Torso
Legs
Head


If you search a little, you will find them.
Success with it.

Not OP, but I had no idea this existed. That's really fantastic; thanks for
posting the link
