Do you think a feature will be added in which when you part out a set you can
add in how much the set cost and then the system would calculate how much was
paid per piece? It's a pain adding it in individually especially when you
have over 300 items! It would be nice if a feature like this also worked out
how much each part cost based on how much they sell for (depending on if you
picked current average/6 month average etc). For example if you bought a set
for $20 and it had 4 parts equally the cost would be $5, however if two of the
parts average was $10 each and the other two were $1 each having a cost of $5
for each part wouldn't make sense. Having to work that out for each part
by hand is just way too time consuming, but if the system did it on part out
entry it would be awesome.

Use Brickstock to do that.

| Hey BL team, any update on this? It's quite annoying and I would still really
like it to get fixed sometime. Let me know if you need more details.

| | I've never quite understood why you are not allowed to set the minimum order
of a shipping method lower than the minimum order of your store. It's annoying
because if you have 10 shipping methods, then anytime you want to change your
minimum order, you need to also change it 10x in your shipping methods, for no
real reason, because the "master setting", the store minimum order value, should
determine it already.
However, it seems it's also causing another problem: Buyers can use the bypass
password to get around the minimum order, but it does not help them go
around the minimum order of the shipping methods. The result is that anytime
a buyer used the bypass password, they are able to order but unable to select
any shipping methods. So there will need to be a manual invoice.
I'd propose removing the restriction for shipping methods to have a minimum
order value that is higher than or equal to the store minimum order value - in
fact, I'd propose for shipping methods not to need a minimum value at all.
That should solve everything I described without any side effects.

| I was under the impression Rebrickable did this for builds but not figures. Can
you combine different parts of figures on Rebrickable? That may be a good platform
for this idea since it doesn't have the barriers that Bricklink has.

What you are really asking for, is a method of taking an abstract collection
of official LEGO parts, and generating a BL compatible upload to a wanted list.
It doesn't have to be those figs, but they are a good example. It could be
for any abstract MOC.
I wonder how difficult it would be to run this on another site, and query the
BL catalog via the API ?

Isn't this what Rebrickable is pretty much made for?

| Thanks Nita for breaking it down like this. Another user suggested just that,
and linked Bricklink's instructions for generating such a list.
I'm going to explore this more and see what I learn. Obviously best-case
scenario is having this process available on Bricklink. But as many have pointed
out, there is a lot of red tape with an official LEGO site.

Here is a picture of what I had in mind. The entire "Wanted List" portion may
need to be removed because of copyright issues.
In the very least, it would be cool to browse Purist Custom Figures, and see
what official parts they consist of.
|
This is not going to happen. As one of the other catalog admins already stated,
there is pretty much a 0% chance that anything custom will not get added to the
catalog.

That should have read "there is pretty much a 0% chance that anything custom
*will* get added to the catalog". Damn double negative...
