I don't think it would be hard to put a "my cost" field available in the "my
order received" page, so that with the "Customize Display" option you could see
it in your summary and at the downmost row you could see the difference between
money you got and cost you had for those bricks, easily calculating your gain
over that.

Don't you also think this would help a lot?

It's not a bad idea certainly, but I haven't heard of an 'easy' way to populate
that field (at least for parting out sets).

Part it out in Brickstore. Set part to average prices. Lower all prices proportional
to your cost for the set. Use a text editor to change the PRICE field to MYCOST.
Upload to Bricklink and set prices as you like.


Every item in my store carries a MYCOST value. I don't know how people can process
orders without knowing if they are making a profit!

Actually it itsn't what I asked for.
This allows to see it in the single order.
I would like to see it in the orders' summary (Orders-Received)

It's not about whether it should or shouldn't.
New features aren't being implemented at this time.
