| (I promise not to get butt-hurt if this suggestion gets shot down while in low
orbit).
At this very moment, I am in the middle of processing 49 orders, received in
the last 48 hours. No complaints on that score...I'm glad my store has what
folks are looking for.
However, as I don't like to keep my customers waiting for who-knows-how-long
for an invoice, I felt like I had to at least keep up communications by sending
each of them a quick note on the order of "Your number in line is X (of Y orders)".
My reason for this is so that customers will not simply assume that I am ignoring
them, and that it takes time and effort (on top of working a regular full-time
job) to pull, package, and invoice orders.
So my suggestion is simple, although I am unsure how difficult it would be to
implement code-wise. If a seller has, say, more than X number of orders (minimum
could be set by the seller) at a specified time of day, an automated short message
to the buyer (which the seller can also author the basis of) could say something
like "Please be patient. Your order number in line is #." As orders are invoiced,
tbe number in line drops by -1, and if the number of un-invoiced orders drops
down to the specified minimum, the notes are no longer sent, and will not be
sent unless, again, that seller gets more orders and the number of un-invoiced
numbers again rises to the minimum or greater.
Q: Doesn't that mean that the buyer will keep getting these as their number
in line changes?
A: Preferably not. The idea is that they only get one message - at the moment
that the minimum number of un-invoiced orders reaches or is greater than the
minimum value at the specified time.
Q: But sellers get orders at all hours of the day. When exactly does the system
decide that, okay, this seller at this time has this many orders, which equals
or exceeds X?
A: At a precise time of the day by US Pacific Time; say, early in the morning
following daily maintenance. So say that the seller, at 3:30 AM USPT, has at
that moment 14 un-invoiced orders. Now, the minimum set by the seller to implement
the number-in-line option is 5. But, of these 14, seven have already received
this message. Thus, the remaining seven would, at that time, receive a message
saying "Please be patient. Your order number in line is currently # (of Y un-invoiced
orders)."
Probably a long shot at best, but I daresay that many of us have been in a busy
store (a NY deli comes to mind) - before COVID - where you had to take a paper
number while glancing at a digital indicator which said "Now serving #". This
idea is based on that. At this moment, I am thinking of Baskin-Robbins ice cream
store. Do they still have those?

|
| We, along with others, are investigating payment methods as an alternative to
Paypal who are going through a raft of changes to do with new EU regulations
(PSD2 and SCA).
One such method being looked at is Stripe, however we can find no real information
about its penetration into our UK market/stores as there is no current capability
to set that as a payment method in the find store search page.
One suggestion, and a good one, has been to ask Bricklink to do a one off query
to show some facts and figures of payments processed by which methods (By region)
This might even help you convince people online payment methods are worth looking
at.
Can you, or are you willing to help here? I know it can be done.

|
| When new parts are added to the catalogue and these parts have only a catalogue
weight, please do not default the item to weight bound for packaging type. Just
as IC is not possible if the item does not have a weight entered for the catalogue,
it should be just as impossible for IC if the volume is patently a problem.
This seems to be the only workaround at this time to make the inventory search
function for "Instant Checkout Unavailable" useful.
Case in point this part, which do not appear on that list even though all of
the information to determine whether or not IC should be applied, is not provided:
* | | 67138 Aircraft Fuselage Forward Bottom Curved 6 x 24 x 1 1/3 with 4 x 21 Recessed Center and 12 x 6 Wings, 20 Holes
Parts: Aircraft |
This part qualifies for IC, will fit my requirements for medium letter by weight,
but is in fact a small packet due to its height, the cost difference is 250%.
The argument that IC is useful enough without being too precise is not valid
if BL do not give sellers the reporting tools required. Setting defaults with
the potential of causing sellers financial loss, without giving sellers the opportunity
to address the issue on listing the item, is not useful.

| Suggestions have not worked on the site for quite a period of time, however we
have yet another one which is becoming pressing.
The part-out log. ~It really does need looking at. You cannot search to find
sets that you think you have parted out without walking through all pages - boring
and tedious,
once you find what you are looking for all you get is the date instead of a copy
of what was done. - boring and not very helpful
Please look at this as an area that needs a rethink.
We certainly should be able to search and once you find it you need to be able
to see what was done - e.g. which parts - at what price etc. etc.

| I’ve posted about this before but got no response.
It would be nice if the wishlists has a pending status in addition to the “wanted”
and “have” statuses. That way once an order is placed items can go to “pending”
and when it is confirmed it can go to “have”
This is particularly useful with Covid causing shipping delays so items may take
a month or more to arrive if the order is placed from another country.

| Please add a line for "Orders in this store" to the quote page. I cannot remember
the user name of every buyer so I will miss return buyers and quote incorrectly,
leading to acceptance and costly financial transactions to refund discount monies
which should never have been paid. Sometimes buyers forget they have coupons
or to ask for the coupon or coupons expire in which case I have to add those
discounts manually on quote. It is a bit difficult to quote correctly if not

| I think that everybody knows that in the last two years there was a lot of peaople
connecting with BL the first time.
I'm sure that most of them to nopt read the rules...
It is becaming quite common to receive orders from people with zero feedback
that after some days ask for order cancellation.
I think it would be great to have a function to avoid orders from people with
0feedback or at least having the possibility to approve or deny the order before
it became a registered order. It is quite frustrating to cancel orders after
some days and then restock everythink...

|
| We've seen people who have opened up to 5 accounts because they have burned
out previous accounts by being repeat NPB offenders. We report those accounts
it takes a while and they get merged and the offender just opens another account,
completes the orders that suit him and NPBs the others.
As it stands right now, a repeat offender can re-register a new buyer account
with THE SAME MAILING ADDRESS, SAME NAME AND SAME IP ADDRESS.
All you need is a new email address.
This makes it very easy for a buyer to place orders in stores that have banned
him.
The suggestion we're making is to somehow cross reference new accounts with
banned accounts other info (currently BL only cross reference email address and
no other info.)
Such as mailing addresses.
We understand that someone can use a friend or neighbor's mailing address;
it's still more cumbersome for that buyer than just keep the same address
as they can right now.
The current system makes it just too easy for someone to open multiple accounts
with no obstacles.
I'm sure sellers don't want buyers to block their inventory for 10 days
(course of npb process) and i'm sure that buyers wouldn't want inventory
blocked from their favorite stores as they will have to spend more to ship from
multiple sellers.

|
| When selecting the option 'Upload My Own Image to BrickLink on Next Page'
when selling something please automatically don't show the BL Catalog images
as well (or give the option to not show them)
Sometimes the reason for using your own image is that what you are selling is
not represented correctly by the default catalog images and for that reason it
would be good for them not to show.
Couple of examples:
An incomplete set.
Selling a single instruction book where there are more than one book for the
set.

|
| Could we have a more complete original box description in the catalogue?
Currently there is only a, not always good, picture of the box and measurements.
The current boxes are usually only a simple, 1 layer, cardboard box with pictures
on all sides.
But the older boxes can be a cardboard sleave with inner box (and what colour
is the inner box). And possible one or more inner trays (plastic of a certain
colour).
And the older (train) sets may have the flap/lid and a see through cover.
I am currently processing some older train sets. And there are some with original
boxes (or parts thereof). But I have no way of knowing if the box I have is complete.
Is the outer box I have all there ever was, or does it also need a inner box
or tray?
So I would like to suggest:
-add more pictures of original packaging
-add a full description using some standard terms (to be determined)
Of course this would need some effort from the bricklink community to add this
information to the catalogue.

| When you have 2 or more manuals for one set
it would be very helpful to be able to choose
if I as a seller have complete set of books
or only particular ones.
Right now prices for multiple manuals in one set are messed up
because they single manuals and complete set of manuals
are treated as equal.
I think that separate entry for every single manual would be ideal.

|
| I really suggest adding a column to buyers' Cart table to show the sellers'
conditions (Min purchase, max lot, avg$/lot). Sometimes I have various
sellers with the same items, and I decide to purchase the ones with fewer conditions
(regardless of price). However, I currently do this by creating a table of my
own, which takes time, or by opening multiple browser tabs of the cart I have
with each seller, which is annoying. Besides, there's plenty of room for
an extra column. The box "Source" is too wide anyway.

|
| On checkout from my store, please stop:
Pre-selecting a shipping method in my store for any buyer to use.
I cannot and do not set those defaults. BL cannot assume for itself the right
to pick and choose defaults for any contractually determined matter between myself
and the buyer, on my behalf. The shipping method to use is the one the buyer
actively chooses.
I had an order this morning where the buyer told me in prior negotiation what
he wanted. He was then able to place an order using a different shipping method.
This because that experienced buyer did not think to change what was pre-selected
by BL during checkout.
I also had an order last week from a new user who did exactly the same thing.
It is not for BL to choose what shipping method is applicable for any buyer.

|
| BL should stop showing estimated shipping and handling charges, as this gives
a false impression of what they are. For example, I almost placed an order at
this store. But reading through the terms, there are extra handling fees, extra
paypal fees and different shipping costs to those estimated and shown here.
Showing an estimated value gives a false impression, and may lead to a (supposedly
legally binding) order being placed only to find out the actual costs are significantly
higher than those estimated.
Of course, this could be completely removed by making the orders non-binding
until the seller has disclosed all costs and the buyer has a chance to agree
to them. But in the meantime, stop misleading buyers with incorrect estimated
values.

to the items I have for sale is difficult and takes to much time.
I know the rules says, that it is not allowed to link outside Bricklink. But
is there another way to do it smarter ? Multiple pictures, describes the condition
better than words. And it's much easier for the buyer, to see if it's
something they want to buy, instead of waiting for the seller to sent pictures.

The site is amazing and very useful. Thank you.
I can choose quite easily a store to buy the specific blocks in a wanted list.
But many of blocks are only sold in abroad stores and that increases the price

Is some case is worth to buy a set that can be find easier to sale than specifics
blocks in my country.
And that is my suggestion: a option to show what is the best set to buy for a
wanted list.
In the result some similar what exists today to choose a store: a list of sets,

are the blocks.
Thank you for your time and the great work.

|
| Hello,
I'm here since 10 years and I really find it wrong that a newcomer has 3
NPB as much as someone who is here since years.
I'll explain you why.
I really believe that a newcomer with 0 to 9 feedbacks shouldn't be allowed
to have more than 1 NPB chance. If you miss that, you're out.
As a seller, I have been targeted too much with newcomers that realize they don't
want to buy after the order was placed. This means my bricks are blocked for
7 to 21 days.
If I do cancel the order, the buyer can give me a negative, so I have to undergo
the NPB procedure in order to prevent the seller from giving nasty feedbacks.
My suggestion follows like this:
0-9 feedbacks rating : 1 NPB / NSS
10-99 2 NPB / NSS
100-999 3 NPB / NSS
1000-9999 4 NPB / NSS
10k+ 5 NPB / NSS
I believe that sellers may be targeted with NSS for facticious reasons, like
"1 piece wasn't in the package, I start a NSS" from a 0 fb rookie who still
doesn't know how BL works. Sometimes BL takes a lot of time to reply and
this lead in the past in the closing of many shops for a third NSS which wasn't
actually real. Giving a 4th or 5th NSS chance it's just a compensation for
possible "fake NSSs".
I'd personally prevent 0-9 feedback rating users from leaving negative feedbacks
too. But that's another story.

|
| Hi,
Can we get a feature that tells us what year a part comes out in a new or previoustly
discontinued color for that part, or a previoustly discontinued color in general
(eg dark turqoise) and also the set that it comes in.
I say this because right now I have to wait for a new set to be on the web, look
closley at photos of it and see if there are any new part recolors, then I will
put it in a table with the part number, the color, the part name, the set it
comes in first, and the quandity.
Luckily Im only doing this with technic / sami-technic parts but as you might
imagine it is quite tedious.
I am aware that there is the NEW keyword bedide a part that has been released
in a new color however this does not tell us what set it comes in right away
because you can have a bricklink part catalog entry but the section "part appears
in" can be blank for a while,
I know that a load of people are interested in part recolors so I think this
feature would make the bricklink catalog a more powerful tool for lego fans!.
Any questions, leave a reply.
Thanks, SNIPE

|
| The way i use my wanted lists, I don't want to flag a part as owned until
i get it IRL. As such i use remarks to keep track of things i have ordered and
don't have yet.
Ideally, a 3rd stat e of items on a wishlist would be added - something like
pending. However as that would be a significant back end change for the developers
of the site, i created my own tampermonkey/greasemonkey script to add links to
the my wishlist search for each given part on the order page.
So underneath the part/minifig/set image is a link to search my wishlists for
the given item in the given color. That way when i make an order i can click
through for each of the items and update just the remarks for the parts across
all wishlists.
a feature like that would be really helpful and should be fairly trivial to add
to the codebase. (particularly using server side code instead of scraping the
info needed for the links from content already on the page.

| It would be wonderful to have a function to load an incoming order into the personal
inventory, as it is done for partout.
Actually the loading of parts shall be done manually...
I think it would be a good function for both the re-sellers and the users that
want to simply use the inventory function.

I go to the gallery to find models to download, order and build, not just to

Thank you.

|
| Please consider the implementation of other Stripe payment methods such as Ideal
and Sofort which can be used for instant check out. With these options offsite
payments like IBAN / bank transfers are less needed and it's very convenient/normal
for a lot of European customers to use these methods.
I have to admit that it's also a lot more cost effective to use these payment
methods over the ever increasing PayPal costs. Especially since we're not
transferring those costs to the people who buy Lego from us.
I hope that it won't be that much of a deal for the site developers to implement
since Bricklink already has a connection with Stripe, but I'm no expert in
API's etc...

|
| Hello,
I'm currently struggling with multiple wish lists, and updating the owned
parts with my orders, to keep track of how many I still need.
My lists often share the same conbinations of pieces&color, and this prevent
me from applying orders on more than one, without messing the overall count.
(This also prevent me from merging my lists.)
I think it would be great to be able to apply an order on multiple wish lists,
making sure pieces applied to a list aren't applied to the other ones.
You would have to specify which list is the first one, the second one and so
on, and the algorithm would apply the order to the first list, then the remaining
pieces to the second one, and so on.
An alternative feature would be to be able to merge lists which have conflicts
(same pieces&color combinations). Why not addition the wanted quantities, owned
quantities and concatenate the comments? It should be fine with a message explaining
how it deals with the conflicts and asking for confirmation.

| Since I have the store, I've noticed that buyers generally don't know
what kind of work there is behind he preparation of an order.
the idea is to give the sellers the possibility to set up a "timeline" (even
automatically, as it happens with the istant invoice) shared with the buyer.
it would turn out as a more "amazon" experience; and help the buyer being calm
while waiting orders

|
| It would be really useful if there was an inventory system implemented for buyers
not just sellers. That way if I buy a set for parts I can simply come on here
and add those parts to my inventory and then any wish list I have containing
those parts would be updated accordingly.

or not?

|
| Now and then (today for me) it would be handy to be able to merge two orders
from the same customer. I'm going to be sending two separate invoices to
be paid because it seems to be the most proper way to do it in this case. It
would be nice to just merge them.

|
| I wish Bricklink would take a closer look at Brickstock and incorporate at least
some of the features that exist there.
For example the use of multiple filter capabilities would be superb for the order
detail page as well as lots of other areas e.g. part identification etc.
If you look at the image I have attached you will see what I mean. It is a natural
element of SQL and when we had goatleg and miniconfigurator that is how both
of them worked (with some modifications)
It really is not a difficult feature to add and would save hundreds if not thousands
of hours work on behalf of the stores for a small amount of time for developers.
Anyone else feel the same?
The 'and/or' filter is a great tool - is easy to learn and use and with
the catalogue getting more and more complex and populated with data this is really
a must.
BTW - we would have expected something like this in the long delayed (and probably
forgotten about) sellers tools

|
| We've been parting out and listing a lot of sets lately and we use the remark
field to put in the location in our inventory system.
One thing that slows us down a lot when storing parts is that there is no way
to sort the list by remark. That means that we have to run around the warehouse
to put parts in their correct spot and it's a big waste of time. If we could
sort the part out by remarks then we wouldn't have this issue and it's
very likely an easy fix on the side of the site.

| Hej,
Would it be possible to show a quick list of items that the shop doesn't
have in a given wanted list ?
Say I have 100 items in any wanted list. While in a shop it says there are 90
available but it's not easy to know which arn't. Plus some duplicate
items and in reality it's just 80/100. So I'd like some option to show
me what's missing.

|
| Hello!
I'm finding it could be useful to be able to search my store inventory for
parts from my wanted lists, or for them to come up when I go to buy from my wanted
list. I would assume my the auto buy thing searches my store as well, but considers
the cost of the pieces. Maybe it could be improved to show parts from my store
as free for me (I have a buyer/seller account, rather than separate ones).
Thanks!

| I would really welcome a Bricklink Gift Card, e.g. for 5, 10, 20, 50 euro. Since
that would be a perfect gift for me as a AFOL Lego designer. So a gift card that
anyone can buy directly online from the main Bricklink page, without needing
a membership or login. Because the people gifting, are mostly not Lego fans themself.

|
| Hi,
I would like to suggest that "Date Listed" information be made available to a
seller on each "Item in Order" listed on an Order Summary. This is particularly
helpful when an entire lot has been purchased. Allow me to explain:
On several occasions, I have found the "Date Listed" information to be quite
useful when looking for a part that I am unable to locate in my inventory. For
example, when I see that I listed Part X last Tuesday, I might remember that
I put Part X in Tray Y, in preparation for storage. However, "Date Listed" information
is only available when an item is still in stock or in a stockroom. Once the
lot is sold, the information is no longer available (to the best of my knowledge).
Which puts one in an unfavorable situation if they have misplaced a part and
are on the clock for shipping an order out!
Such a feature might look something like the attached image.
Thanks for your consideration.
K

| I'm not sure how easy it would be to implement, but it would be helpful if
any part variation notes were present for an un-decorated part, were also shown/propagated
to the catalogue entry for decorated parts, especially in cases where those differences
can cause issues when parts are used in MOCs

|
| I'd like to suggest a new feature for sorting inventories.
Currently, inventories can be sorted "By Color," which groups items alphabetically
based on the color names. I don't find this feature to be very helpful, and
I don't use it very often. Would it be possible/reasonable to add a feature
that uses the Color Guide list instead?
(i.e. sort as "Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Violet;" not "Blue, Green, Orange,
Red, Violet, Yellow")

|
| the thing I dislike most about ordering from this site, in how hard it is to
control the quality of the pieces that I get.
And I don't think loose pieces should be categorized between "new" and "used",
because all loose pieces are used (Yes I know you can order them individually
from Lego at times, but functionally when you buy lego it comes in a set, outside
of that set they are used).
What there needs to be is a grading scale, either number based (1-5) or description
based (Comics use words like Mint, Near Mint, Very Fine, Fine, etc; playing cards
will use words like Near Mint, Lightly Played, Moderately Played, Damaged, etc).
Sellers would be forced to classify all their pieces into one of these conditions,
and then I would be able to filter out conditions that I thought were unacceptable.
Create a clear cut visual guide for conditions, and award disputes based on that.
I sell cards on www.tcgplayer.com and knowing that buyers can win disputes if
I send them cards that are worse then they wanted, I make sure to put forth the
effort to accurately grade the cards when I list them. Yes it is more work, but
I have never once had an issue with a buyer buying a card from me that they were
unhappy with because of the condition.
In my first batch of orders on this site I got several pieces that were damaged,
etc. It was really frustrating, because when doing mass purchases on this site
it is seemingly impossible to filter out bad pieces, and when you let the site
build the orders for you, its hard to see and notice all the "notes" that sellers
put on their items.
So I don't feel justified in blaming a seller because I received two saddles
with broken clips, forcing me to order two new saddles, because they noted it
on their items. The issue here is the functionality of the website to convey
that to me, and allow me to filter their items from my potential orders.
I honestly would suggest you take a hard look at www.tcgplayer.com Coming from
card games, I was really surprised at how similar the process of buying/selling/collecting
individual cards/decks/sets is to Lego pieces/sets. Like, functionally they are
completely the same, and TCGplayer is a really well honed marketplace (nothing
is perfect), but learning from what they do right would greatly improve your
already fantastic site.
