All finished! The admins approved in less than 12 hours by the way.

Good luck with the part out! There are lots of great parts in this set.

  Replace "decorated" categories with 2 new categories, "printed" and "with stickers".

You can achieve much the same thing by searching -sticker in the decorated category.

  that one of the requirements would be to make sure inventories are always done.

But anyways all I’m asking for is if someone had time and wanted $20 to do it
then great. If no one wants to do it then I would offer 30$ etc. That being said
even if you do it and I pay you there is no guarantee the admin staff will even
approve it. That’s just the risk I have to take.

?? There is no risk whatsoever. Admin approve all set inventories that are correct.
And they help submitters to make an inventory correct. I am not sure where you
are coming from in all this. Give me a couple days to complete the inventory
and you will see that the system works just fine.

I figured by now it would be pretty instant for inventories to get listed with
lego now owning this site. I’m hoping this site isn’t still using volunteers
to do inventory

I wondering what your thought process is on this subject. What does the recent
acquisition have to do with the speed at which inventories are completed on BrickLink?

My thought process is that the Lego Group owns bricklink and could potentially
instantly upload all inventories of sets that are released. You from what I understand
are now employed by Lego so I assume you would know more about what the capabilities
are.

But maybe it’s just going to take some cash to fix the situation. Maybe I need
to offer 40$ or 100$ for someone to inventory the set. You can call it a side
job or a bounty or something along those lines. I had thought that the Lego group
would have helped in this area but I guess inventories still rely on volunteers.
I really have no clue but I’m willing to pay someone to do it if someone wants
to make some cash.

Well I would obviously see what’s the lowest price I can get it done for. Hopefully
20$ or 40$. Even still I realize that I would have to wait for an admin to approve
it. I’m just trying to help myself and the community. I’m
Not looking for a debate or argument

Sorry you feel so negative about all this. Our system works with volunteers and
the LEGO group could not provide all the necessary info for a good inventory.
Just look at the differences between our inventories and Brickset's if you
need some examples. No pattern names, no minifigs, no part variations, no sticker
sheets, no extras. Anyway, you posted that you needed an inventory and someone
offered to do it. How bad can things be?

Take care,
Jen

Sure! I'll play along...

I am not convinced that 90460 is really a new version of 6131.

 
Part No: 90460  Name: Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Wizard / Witch, Slightly Textured
* 
90460 Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Wizard / Witch, Slightly Textured
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear
 
Part No: 6131  Name: Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Wizard / Witch
* 
6131 Minifigure, Headgear Hat, Wizard / Witch
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear

They look the same and LEGO uses the same thumbnail image for both. The small
image in Dark Green that I submitted for 90460 was back in the days before I
knew what I was doing. I cannot confirm the part number or what set it was from.
(I guess we all start somewhere!)

Anyway, I would like to see convincing side by side proof that they are significantly
different even if they have different mold numbers. I have not found any molded
with 90460. My Witch from Series 2 has been played with so I cannot confirm it
there either.

I am open to hearing any ideas or missing information about this!
Thanks,
Jen

  Hello,

I was wondering if a feature or timer, to see whether a BrickLink
member is active or has been active (like on FB messenger or WhatsApp), would
be a great idea.

The reason why I'm wondering:
I'm sure there are members who logs in daily to see if another
member has reacted to their order('s invoice)/message, and are nervously
waiting until he/she/they react(s).

It will also be handy to see if a member (who placed an order on your store)
is active on BL and isn't responding to your multiple messages (or just ignoring),
and easier to decide to cancel an order.

For example (my example):
There is a member (USA) who has placed an order on my store (Belgium) a few days
ago. I instantly filled in and sent the invoice to serve him and be able to send
the parcel (after payment) as quickly as possible. But until now, two days later,
he hasn't read the message nor has paid for the order. Now I'm just wondering
if he was active or not lately... cause the hole situation is making me nervous.
I know I should be patient... but I find it kind of weird he responded very quickly
to my last call for buying, and afterwards not responding anymore.

So if you recognize yourself in such a situation, maybe vote 'YES' and
perhaps selling on BL will be more pleasant and more serious. I'm sure there
is a lot of members thinking this way, isn't it?

Kindly greetings,

Yapke

Yes, we used to have the ability to see when a buyer had last logged on. This
feature was just removed last month due to 'privacy' issues. It's
unfortunate as it was a valuable tool for sellers. Hopefully, they find a way
to restore it soon.

I will definitely be looking into Azul and Wingspan. We are always looking for
other great games to add to our pool to choose from. Thanks for the suggestions!

Cheers,
Randy

Another vote here for Azul and Wingspan. We also play a lot of Scythe, Terraforming
Mars, and Tapestry recently.

Carcassone, Agricola, and Belfort are my all time favorites. I can't play
Catan... dice don't like me.

Any possibility we could get a "break multipacks into parts" option on the part
out screen? Sort of like the "Break Sets in Sets" option that currently exists
and is very useful for things like Advent calendars.

That would be ideal but would require actual programming to put into place. Any
programmers work at this website?? Oh, never mind.
