  This is something that crossed my mind reading the forum.

What if you have to leave a message to the counterpart BEFORE leaving a non positive?

Like: "I am leaving this negative feedback, the counterpart may reply to this
message within XX days before the feedback becomes effective".

If I am a seller, I may want to contact a rushy buyer who is leaving me a negative
for an order that had a bad outcome before warning me about that. This way I
can offer refunds, coupons, reshipping or whatever, and the buyer may be discouraged
from leaving me bad feedback.

If I am buyer, I may want to contact a rushy seller who is leaving me a negative
without even contacting me, and I may want to settle things in order to avoid
the feedback.

I have received sometimes rushy feedbacks that underwent all the feedback removeal
procedure... this may have been just spared if the person was aware that I had
in my intentions to settle things.

The feedback page encourages to resolve issues before leaving feedback:

Please try to resolve any disputes before posting a complaint. Feedback must
not be used to communicate with your trading partner or ask them a question

  Is there something on here or could there be, a way that we can keep track
of the sets we own and what the current new value is along with the current used
value is and what the totals are?? Something like what BrickEconomy has.

Brickset.com
Rebrickable.com

  I don't know if this will ever happen but I would love to see that chat rooms
return. They really helped me out when I was new and other as well. It was
also nice to make friends and talk Lego with others to get ideas and tips on
projects. I would hope that admin and the new owner of BL may see that chat
was an addition to the site. It was not the cause of BL 1.0's downfall so
it really makes no sence to take it out

Bump.

Can the voting be re-activated?

  I have no interest in selling bricks but I want to keep track of full and partial
sets that I have. I think the Inventory feature will work well for that.

Can this be enabled for those of us who want to use it for ourselves and not
to sell to others?

Thanks
Steve

Websites as Rebrickable.com and brickset or the Brickstock program have these
features.
You can always upgrade your account to seller and keep the store closed.

  It would so much improve the searching/buying experience if the seller's
location (under the 'More options' drop-down) could be saved as a default
preference. It really bugs me to have to change it with each part I'm costing.
Anyone else agree?

Unless I'm overlooking a setting, in which case, please illuminate me

If not do you have a link to one that works well.

Gary

Other options are Rebrickable.com or the Brickstock program.

  There should be a way to put your inventory into BrickLink without being a seller
so that it’s easier to part out sets for wanted lists

If I’m missing something please direct me to the page

It's possible to part out a set into a Wantlist without being a seller.

You can upgrade your account to seller without opening the store.
Or keep track of your personal inventory on Rebrickable.com.

  Hi,

with over 100 Wanted Lists, I would like the chance to organize my Wanted Lists.
Perhaps something like superlists or categories, for instance;

- active (buying)
- save for later

Or the possibility to name them yourself

This is already possible.

  
Just my 2 cents.

Reach out if you want to discuss this more


PS! Keep up the good work


Kind Regards, Pål R

  Ok so you guys have more experience of this than me so I'm going to take
your word that the tile is dark red. My issue then is what does Dark red look
like to Reddish Brown and what does reddish brown look like to Brown. All the
parts I sell are used parts so its likely a lot of brown could exist so going
on that basis I was assuming everything with a reddish tint was reddish brown
and I don't have any dark red, if I'm incorrect on this then I have a
major inventory reshuffle to do.

Check this page:

  Hi,

So I'd like someone to have a look at this and see if I am going mad please.
Have a look at the first picture without looking at the second you will see both
parts stuck together look identical in colour. Both are brown. Now look at the
second picture the same part Plate 1x1 with the design on that side of it is
listed only as reddish brown and never as brown. Should this not be listed as
brown?

Kind regards

Barry


The 2x2 tile looks like dark red to me and the plates reddish brown when next
to it.

Do you actually have any old brown bricks/plates to put the "others"?

TBF the plates do look brown in the first two photos. But lighting and images
can make something look very different.

All of them are.

are they? when a couple scam reported posts are still up most of the day after
being reported it just tells me there is not a good spread of mods to cover all
time zones.

Thank you for reporting.
There were two scam posts reported around 5 at night, in my timezone.
Both were canceled immediately after I woke up. 😉

figured it was you that removed them, in fact feels like you are the only moderator
working.

You can be assured that all active moderators are working together.
It's visible below the canceled post who canceled it.

This was suggested before.

The Problem Center is below the page. Click forum, then enter the message number.

yeah but a bit redundant when you have to go thru 3 clicks just to get tot the
report post section.

sorry make that 4 clicks before you get to the page where you give the post number
and reason.

Yes, it's a lot of clicks and copy/paste. Not easy on a mobile phone.

while a simple report post button on the post itself would make it so much easier


It would probably also lead to accidentally clicked reports.
I prefer a more visible button with two-step verification to report a message.

I think it would be a good function for both the re-sellers and the users that
want to simply use the inventory function.

It's possible to download orders and upload the xml file to your inventory.
