Yellow brick looks like OLO, not a test brick but a very rare Japanese lego brick
(not sure of value because these come up so seldomly!). Red may be a normal slotted
brick, not necessarily rare (but I can't tell what the markings underneath
are). Green is definitely worth a bit

I had not heard about OLO, so a quick google found https://www.brickarchive.org/categories/2x4-bricks/production/olo/

Perhaps I am not understanding, but using the "Quantity" button at the top of
the page, you can multiply a wanted list by a constant factor. That way, you
can maintain a single wanted list for multiple copies of an item. I often do
this when I am building multiple copies of the same MOC.

I assume you're already aware, but you can run Buy All on multiple lists
- select it from one list, then on the results page check the others lists you
want and hit Apply to update the results.
To me, it seems that what you're suggesting would be way too niche to be
a worthwhile use of BL's limited development resource.

That works OK for me if your lists are significantly different. What I've
encountered with that mechanism trying to buy multiple copies of the one model
in the same purchase was that it didn't combine well and ended up only giving
me parts-to-purchase-count for one model, not all of them.
Now, that was a while ago when I used it and maybe it was broken at the time
I used it, but what I've done since is to buy one and then simply increase
the amounts in the cart based on the other lists and what's available and
needed... but it's a rather manual process that I'd prefer to avoid.

Not currently, but you could always pre-pay for a while. Figure your annual sales
charges and pay that much at the first billing. Should be running on credit until
end of the year.

| No, I do not agree.
What you describe below can be set on Paid payment status. If an order is PAID
you cannot add to it. Because we do this on Order status now, does not mean it
is the right way.
It is not that you cannot add to the order because the seller already packed
it, you cannot add to the order because the order is Paid for. (therefore the
block should be on payment status, not order status)
In a similar way, if you did not pay for the order, and payment status is pending,
but seller already Packed your order, you also cannot add to it. But now the
block is on the Order status.
In my opinion these are 2 different situations, where Bricklink now "misuses"
the order status for a payment status change.

| I'd like the wanted list quantity that can be applied to be allowed to be
0.
I am in the process of building multiple copies of the same sets of rolling stock.
I have one wanted list of each from when I first uploaded them (to verify that
the build would work IRL) and now that I've done that I want to build 4 or
5 more of each.
I'm making each copy a separate wanted list for my own management (so once
I've got all the parts for one I can start building it while more parts arrive).
Rather than uploading from the studio file each time (which is a lengthy process
for some of these models due to their size), I thought I'd simply copy the
existing wanted list. However, they've all got the quantity set to full and
the mechanism to reset doesn't allow it to go to 0; the message says it must
be positive.

The best way to drive sales to the platform is through education. Introduce people

Win/Win sales generate fee revenue.
Just spent hours scouring uTube for Bricklink Tutorials and it’s a mess videos
are 10min to 40min in length.
Most tutorials are too long and/or become information overload.
The site needs a series of short, easy to follow video tutorials split into categories
for BUYERS and SELLERS example:
1. How to register an account (the number of people that can’t manage this simple
set would blow your mind, so many people get stuck and give up entirely and move
on to eBay or Brickowl)
2. How to navigate the site

6. How to request an invoice

| The problem is not that a Seller has too many statusses to choose from. The problem
is that a Payment status is used by BL within the Order status.
Order Status should be:
Pending
Processing
Processed or Packed
Shipped
Completed (if you like)
Returned
Cancelled
Payment status:
Pending
Sent
Paid or Payment received
Bounced
(Partially) Refunded
If the order was Paid through onsite Payment that should result in Paid in the
Payment Status.
Order status can then still be Pending, as I as a seller have not started processing
the order yet.
NSS should be based upon Payment status, not Order status.

| From the perspective of a very new buyer, there are too many status options available
to sellers.
In my situation, I instantly paid for an order. After a week, the seller updated
the order status from "paid" to "processing." As a result, I am unable to submit
a NSS complaint until 1 week after the seller updated the order status, even
though there has been no material change and the only action to date is my payment.
(And yes, I did reach out to the seller, but never received a response).
There is still 1 more day before the 2nd week expires, and the seller will have
the opportunity to use another of the many status options available to delay
the NSS complaint another week. I imagine this could continue and prohibit me
from ever initiating the NSS process.
My suggestion is that BrickLink change this functionality so that once an order
is "paid" a seller cannot update the status to earlier in the timeline. The
only options available after "paid" should be "packed" and "shipped." There
should be no reason for an order to be "processing," which indicates the seller
is creating an invoice, after the order has been paid.

Let’s look how it works for minifigure parts: the results is the set the part
appears in and the whole minifigure it appears in. So, you get the same set
twice, which skews the quantities¹, but at least you know that it came in a minifigure.
E.g.:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=2531&colorID=74&in=A
(¹ That part in Trans-Medium Blue is said to appear (“be known”) twice but there’s
actually only one in the set.)
There’s more and more big assemblies in Counterparts that are minifigs-but-not-minifigs
(so, not just wheel + tyre or part + sticker) and, IIUC, there’s a plan to harmonize
that (those assemblies and the minifigs). This suggestion would be a good step
toward that harmonization.

| When searching for SOME color of parts, we often find things that are counterparts
of themselves, and not real other parts that can fit into the role.
look at that:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=4185&colorID=5&in=A
An experienced fellow told me it's because the part be inside an assembly.
I suggest this should be more clearly stated.
I suggest:
a) a new section at the end (e.g after "appears as regular" "appears as extra"
"appears as counterpart") named "APPEARS INSIDE ASSEMBLIES"
b) enrich the text, from "2 in 1234-1(inv)"
"2 as assembly 4158c01(inv) in 1234-1(inv)"
giving us a way to see the assembly, plus go into its contents.

| I think this is an older message, but I wanted to give it a thumbs up after finding
it recently, while searching how to set the default Wanted List order to alphabetical.
(Which doesn't seem like an option currently.) I'm relatively new to
Bricklink, and while many of its quirks are endearing, it's kind of maddening
to have to re-sort the main Wanted List page to alphabetical every single time
I toggle back and forth to it. In the way that I use my Wanted Lists, the date
created is pretty much irrelevant. Thanks!

Then you'll need a "Sales Tax" one also - but maybe it exists, didn't
check.
Otherwise simply a general "Taxes" one?

| From the perspective of a very new buyer, there are too many status options available
to sellers.
In my situation, I instantly paid for an order. After a week, the seller updated
the order status from "paid" to "processing." As a result, I am unable to submit
a NSS complaint until 1 week after the seller updated the order status, even
though there has been no material change and the only action to date is my payment.
(And yes, I did reach out to the seller, but never received a response).
There is still 1 more day before the 2nd week expires, and the seller will have
the opportunity to use another of the many status options available to delay
the NSS complaint another week. I imagine this could continue and prohibit me
from ever initiating the NSS process.
My suggestion is that BrickLink change this functionality so that once an order
is "paid" a seller cannot update the status to earlier in the timeline. The
only options available after "paid" should be "packed" and "shipped." There
should be no reason for an order to be "processing," which indicates the seller
is creating an invoice, after the order has been paid.

Are you sure about this?
Help page says "At least 7 days have passed from the order submission date (since
the order was last submitted or updated)."
And altering a status is not the same as updating an order.
So I think you should still be able to file the NSS at this moment.

| Please make it easier to find local resellers by displaying the state abbreviation
in search results, and if possible add a search filter for states and provinces
of North America. For world wide, maybe add ability to sort by closest to your
post code. This would help on larger sets to reduce shipping costs and support
local businesses.

You can sort of do it...
Open your Wanted List.
Change the sort order.
Hit the Edit button (in the group of buttons next to search bar).
Then hit the Save button.
Note: this will change the sort order for all your Wanted Lists.

I think OP is talking about the order of the list of WLs, not the items
inside the WLs themselves.

Thanks beaverbrick , you taught me a new trick.
SylvainsLS is correct, I am referring to the order of the Wanted Lists themselves
I have about 150 incomplete sets as wanted lists- with names beginning with their
set numbers. So an alphabetical order is the easiest for me when jumping around
the list.
Thank you for your replies.
