| 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.

For the first little while I store my pieces for sale in the box they came in,
except merging lots of the same piece. I was pulling an order last night and
a lot was missing and it was reasonable (and accurate) to assume that I had merged
lots and then dropped them in the wrong box. I found a workaround that didn't
take TOO long, but it occurred to me at the time that it would be nice to have
a tool to tell me the sets I have parted out with this very common piece.

You are right and that is something that should also be added to the list of
changes required.

Would be nice if it could be downloaded as an xml / spreadsheet. I can imagine
this is the sort of data people would like to feed into their administration
for tax purposes, or run stats on. Especially if it could save the details that
you suggest.
Also, it's hard to find, you really need to know it exists or you'll
never really notice it.
I always enter every part-out in a spreadsheet manually (set, amount, part-out
value) in order to keep track of the value of my inventory.

We use both Brickstock and our own internal software and have the ability, currently
to go through the entire part-out and look at what we have done - what prices
what alternatives etc. All of this should be available here.
