| I have been in the process of designing, buying the parts, and building the set
that I envisioned and created through Lego Digital Designer.
Through this process, I discovered that I have been buying too many of some parts,
not realizing that I had already ordered them. Plus completely forgetting to
buy other parts. With that being said, a question popped into my head as to what
could Bricklink create to help designers, and buyers keep track of the parts
they need.
Why doesn't Bricklink have a history of parts a buyer purchases in their
activity, or account profile history? This feature would definitely make things
super easy while being in the process of building a design, and sticking to a
budget.
Personally, I have never used the "upload" feature for Lego Digital Designer,
so I cannot say if this feature already exists or not. Given that I am trying
to keep my build a secret, to a point, I did not use the "upload" feature, thinking
it may reveal my design.
The thing is, it would be handy to see the history in how many specific parts
I have purchased in total. This feature could then break down where I purchased
these parts, and allow me to add, and see the notes I left for myself for each
store. To make it extra easy, these parts could then be categorized under the
set's design each creator have made, keeping them a secret until after their
reveal.
Perhaps I am over thinking things? Perhaps not?
I do know one thing: When you have a budget, and something is much easier to
use, we tend to use them way more.
Thankfully, I have discovered that most in this community are wonderful individuals,
whom I would easily become great friends with. Working with them to build my
creations has been a blessing.
Thank you to all of those who are amazing, and have helped me along my journey
to build my creations.
