Just need help to get me and the seller talking, the ad is on ebay-kleinanzeige

Would appreciate this a lot

what sneakers?

Likely these: https://www.adidas.com/us/lego

I’ve read in another forum thread that the bag assortment can change more frequently
than the inventories but I don’t know how much of it is true. At least in sets
with numbered bags it seems that each bag is tied to a separate part of the instructions
so it should be consistent between sets.

I’ve actually needed this feature recently as I found unopened parts bags in
a bulk LEGO bin I got off Craigslist, without it I ended up opening the bags
to inventory them, either to sell as New Incomplete or to complete the set and
sell it as Used.

not, this only applies to sets with numbered bags.

I don't want to bias your opinion with my thoughts as I am looking for other's
opinions.

I have an opportunity to test how I would do this as I am parting out a couple
sets and will be taking the time to inventory the bags as I part them out.

Thank you for your input.

It would add to the initial work, but I would love it. People sell individual
bags on eBay and it is hard to tell what they are worth. It would be a commercial
and scholastic opportunity for Bricklink and it would also get us around the
timeout problem on big, big sets. You would just part out 6 bags at a time.

I have a limited (albeit large) list of available bricks (Official LEGO id).
I have looked for a long time on how to create a custom palette (xml/json/???)

Any help is much appreciated.

The dedicated forum for Studio and PartDesigner is https://forum.bricklink.com/

Please search the forum for your question before posting a new one.
There’s an index of known bugs and suggestions that you can browse first: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5579


As for your question, you can create a palette from a BL Wanted List XML: create
the WL here, download (button is on the WL page, on top), import in Studio (Palette
menu | Config… | box at the bottom).
It can be counted (like when you import an official set) or not.

If you are not sure it is Playmobil, you can check it on Playmodb.org. It is
a database like BrickLink, but it is a reference only site. I don't know
if this helps?

With kind regards,

Anthony.

Many Scots get upset if you use what they see as an incorrect spelling when discussing
their Whisky.


Yeah my son brought me up to date on the different spellings some time ago. But
you gotta settle on a spelling if you're gonna talk about it at length, I
chose the American version.


It is difficult to keep switching, it's not surprising that someone settles
on their national spelling, after all there are many differences already in our
spellings of the same word.



  As to upsetting the Scots: isn't that what it means to be Scottish, act like
you're always upset about something? Kinda why I like many of them, they're
like me


Couldn't possibly comment, the English are very rarely the flavour of the
month with the Scottish, I personally have no problems with our northern cousins
so I'll smile and say nothing.




  I could go with what I imagine my mother often heard in her bartending days "whatever
you call it, just give me the damned drink!"


Some truth in that when you have a thirst.

Love that pic. Back when we were still living in the Netherlands, I collected
those boxes/tubes (with bottle inside) but only the ones we emptied ourselves.
I had a good relationship with our local liquer supplier - he often went searching
for single malts we hadn't tried before. I had a similar "setup" with our
local cheese shop owner (without the "container collecting" part). He was pretty
sad to see us leave...

Niek.

The pic is of some of my son's stash. They all have booze in them, he doesn't
save empties but keeps the bottles in their boxes for some reason. He's the
whiskey connoisseur in the house. On Saturdays he and I will sample the newest
he's picked-up on his travels during the week. But I don't/can't
consume much myself, nor does he for that matter. Just a couple of lightweights
in that regard.

Like everything else he does, he reads-up extensively, immerses himself into
the subject. Whiskey is his newest interest. Once a week (sometimes we'll
miss a week) we break out the Glencairn whiskey tasting glasses and sample the
latest of his finds, and talk. It's something that I look forward to very
much, both the talking and the whiskey but mostly what he has to share.

My son is one of those exceptionally intelligent guys, that enjoys a conversation.
He's also a voracious reader, mostly books on the classics and military history.
So not only do I get to sample some good whiskeys, but get to learn more about
history as he shares the latest book he's into. Three things I enjoy: my
son, history and whiskey! So you see why I'd "look forward to it very much"

I'm the same, still have to look through rock pools as I did as a kid, fascinated
watching wood ants on their mounds and many more things.

Only ever watched nature programmes to see the Cicadas, not an event you'll
see too often in a lifetime.

I think the most annoying and spectacular thing we see is the mass of flying
ants once a year as they leave to start new colonies.

I am in this group. I am always fascinated by the little things around me when
I go on walks, runs, hikes, bike rides, canoeing, camping, etc. Not only does
the wildlife intrigue me, but every type of plant, fungus, etc. Right now, the
17-year cicadas are out in my part of Ohio ("Brood X" as it is known). The last
time they were here, I had just moved into my first home at 28 and had no kids.
Now, my life could not be more different than it was then. The sound is deafening
and overly irritating, but the whole cicada life cycle and observing them above
ground just fascinates me. They are cute in a weird sort of way.

Love that pic. Back when we were still living in the Netherlands, I collected
those boxes/tubes (with bottle inside) but only the ones we emptied ourselves.
I had a good relationship with our local liquer supplier - he often went searching
for single malts we hadn't tried before. I had a similar "setup" with our
local cheese shop owner (without the "container collecting" part). He was pretty
sad to see us leave...

I am in this group. I am always fascinated by the little things around me when
I go on walks, runs, hikes, bike rides, canoeing, camping, etc. Not only does
the wildlife intrigue me, but every type of plant, fungus, etc. Right now, the
17-year cicadas are out in my part of Ohio ("Brood X" as it is known). The last
time they were here, I had just moved into my first home at 28 and had no kids.
Now, my life could not be more different than it was then. The sound is deafening
and overly irritating, but the whole cicada life cycle and observing them above
ground just fascinates me. They are cute in a weird sort of way.

I love spending time in the outdoors as much as my LEGO!

I told you I was an odd one, never ever liked Whisky/Whiskey or most strong
alcoholic spirits, just don't like the taste.

Drank Vodka a lot whilst in my late teens and early twenties but lost any interest
after too many hangovers, now I can't tolerate it at all.

Never liked anything that tastes earthy/peaty whether that's malt, beers
or those dreadful cheap wines we had in the 70's/80's here in the U.K.

My sweet tooth doesn't help, not a fan of anything too dry.

Btw, if you enjoy peated single malts, there's the Westland distillery up
here in Seattle. We had lunch there last weekend. It's a young distillery
making some top-notch whiskeys. They used to import their peat from Scotland
but now source it locally from farmland down in (Shelton) Olympia, Washington

I think it's innately human to do so. It's just that most of us don't
slow down enough to appreciate. And why it's good to take the time, as you've
done, to express it.

  
Always envious of the wilderness around the world, nothing really like it here
in the U.K., some small exceptions.

I'd like to explore the UK countryside, someday.

We (my son, daughter and I) are playing with the idea of visiting the island
of Islay, Scotland. Who knows, if we do, maybe we'll take the time to see
more of the UK countryside beyond just passing through it.
  
Do we all appreciate the world around us more as we age or are there many
more like myself that have always been both fascinated and in awe of the world
around us.

I think we're all born with a strong sense of wonderment and awe of the world
around us, that stays with us but get's push to the back of our minds as
we take on the struggles of life.

But as we age our thoughts become more disciplined and prioritized, allowing
us to see and "appreciate the world around us" again. Or it could just be the
ever-increasing realization that comes with age, that life is finite, renewing
our perspective and appreciation?

  
Not necessarily a cool thing with your peers when you are young

  but then I've never been what most would class as normal.

And that's a good thing, in my book

Never get too much clotted cream, my opinion anyway.

Thanks for the tip about roadworks.

Ah yes - must do it proper. Although my late father always said that the Devon
way is the best way - you can always put another dollop of cream on top!

Wish you well with your move.

PS Avoid the Tamar bridge if you can. Has resurfacing work going on, which is
likely to last for months. Absolute chaos!

Don't know your part of Britain but glad to hear someone sees bluer skies
more often.

Never seem to have a camera, not that I'm any good with them, when the beautiful
sunrises or sunsets are on display.

Lovely photos, I'm lucky I get to see skies like that a fair bit as I live
on the Sussex Coast, and the sky yesterday morning at about 4:30 was amazing
even though it meant rain for most of the day, it had lots of the reds and oranges.

Must be Britain blue, limited edition obviously, never around for long.

Can't reach to test if it's brittle too.

...within 5 min. you make a (or many) new one, very simple:

- BS prints the layout you see on your screen

Step 1] modify the screen layout to meet your print-layout needs
- you can use Selections and whatever in that layout

Step 2] save that layout under the tab 'View' with a nice name
- you can add numerous layouts of your own

Step 3] whatever file you open, go to View, apply a custom print-layout, and
voilá
- what you see is what you get

Step 4] print it

I think not, but that you can update them: https://github.com/rgriebl/brickstore/issues/81

If you end up figuring this out please let me know, this is pretty much the only
thing stopping me from converting over fully. I just need my custom print templates
to work!

Would like to see a few additions to Part Designer, namely:
1. Ability to move eraser with WASD (when you've selected eraser, WASD just
moves viewport, which seems pretty useless)
2. Ability to erase based on shapes. Would be nice if I could use a part as
an eraser, similar to the difference function in POV-Ray. How else am I supposed
to create curves?

Point 2 already exists: you can intersect / join / minus pairs of selected objects.
Select the binary operation first from the tool icon dropdown, then select both
objects, then click the tool icon.

Thanks for showing your appreciation, especially to Johan and his efforts. He
is amazing at his job as moderator!

Your package is ready to go and will be dropped off at our PO today. You should've

Have a wonderful weekend!

Thanks, Johan. You did a great job, as usual!

Message just sent to the winning member

I've loads of other high value Lego I've not listed, maybe we'll
come up with more contest?

Thanks again...

  Is there an easy way to sort parts in a set by average cost?

Here is how I do it, but there may be more effective ways.

When you're on the set go to "My Inventory Part Out". Then, on the fifth
row down it says "Default Prices to:". There I select "Current Items for Sale
Average". If you're okay buying used parts, select used because those will
be cheaper. When you go to the next page it allows you to look at the price of
each brick in that set. It's tedious, especially for large sets, but you
can scroll down the list and look at the price of each part and the big numbers
will stand out to you!

Best of luck!

If you follow these exact steps, but then also go one step further to the verifying
page and then also copy and paste this entire webpage into excel as "text only",
after a little cleanup, you can sort the price column "high to low" and it takes
out need for scrolling and searching.

Just be carful NOT to hit the "UPLOAD ITEMS" button at the bottom of the
page, or you'll add everything to your inventory.

Download Brickstore. Import set inventory. Set price to average . Sort by price.

Fast and easy.

After years collecting Lego I sold them and started collecting Simpsons. Now
I need more room, so I am selling 4500 different items. No Lego will be sold
there, but what Simpsons Lego I have, which is all of them, will be listed here
once I get the boxes out of storage. The non-Lego items can be found, you know
where, if anyone is interested.

Ok, I found the second error, had a spin in the token, now everything is working
again.

But I would be interested to know what the first mistake was that I was locked
out.

Yes it is because someone once told me that I should stop it that way.

No, nothing changed. I have now renewed the api. Now this one comes in

As usual, I entered 0.0.0.0 as IP for the token.

Yes it is because someone once told me that I should stop it that way.

Otherwise it would not work if my IP is changed. Has worked well so far.

Only reasons I can think of it getting blocked would be over usage of the API
(I believe there's a 5,000 daily limit) or maybe your IP address changed
and is not valid for your access token.

Check this page and see if your Access Token has a certain IP address associated
with it.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/api/register_consumer.page

In bricksync, if you type 'status' you can see what your API usage has
been over the last 24 hours... second and third to last lines.

See if either of those thrown up and answers.

The numbers are all under the limit - it started at 9 a.m. today.

IP change has so far brought nothing

4150 in blue as just mentioned in the forum for example.

blue - https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=2566&name=Plant,%20Tree%20Palm%20Top&category=%5BPlant,%20Tree%5D#T=P&C=7

light bluish gray - https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6942&name=Dish%205%20x%205&category=%5BDish%5D#T=P&C=86

light bluish gray - https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=73435c01&idColor=86#T=P&C=86


are some I'm always on the lookout for, someone have a master list of individual
parts over like $5? I've got extra space in my brain and need to commit
some more stuff to memory.

There have been some great guesses so far.

You have determined that it is indeed Persea americana and not [p=x8]
though that was a good guess by Grego

The difference between the two dates is more than two weeks.

The Avocado's nutritional value amount of Mg in mg are two of the numbers.

Keep the guesses coming on the OP:

Open brickstore/brickstock, download the missing orders, multiply quantity by
-1 and upload. That should remove the rest of the missing parts.

+1 on that Randy, I was just getting ready to suggest the same to the OP

Nicely summarised

If it's not already, add bricksync to your computers 'startup' folder...
then if it does reboot for any reason, bricksync will auto start.

is there a solution to that? I would assume it wouldnt help at all to now put
them back in file. its 14 orders! and not small orders either. which usually
I would be glad about. just not today

so based on that, looks like what happened is internet went down overnight, computer
must have died or somehow bricksync got closed at that time. next day employee
restarts computer, forgets to check bricksync (again I say...URG) pulls orders,
ships orders, files orders all not knowing bricksync is down (guess urg is redundant
at this point) until next employee come at 3 and responsibly checks bricksync.
poop.

If you un-file the orders, bricksync should find and process them... BUT depends
on your situation as to whether you really want to do that.

If you have manually adjusted your inventory already for a load of parts over
the course of the last month since the outage, bear in mind that after bricksync
processes the missing orders, your inventory quantities will be wrong for all
those parts.

The other option is to go through the orders and do a stock check, manually adjusting
your inventory where needed.

I guess you'll have go weigh up which way is better.

Either way, I'd strongly recommend taking a backup of your inventory first

  "Data Not Found: User application error: INVENTORY, 234529327".

That error is looking for a specific LotID and it couldn't find it.

Could have sold an item on both BO & BL at around the same time... then as bricksync
processed the BO order, the item had already been sold from your BL inventory
and so it couldn't find it.
