How do you all handle selling sealed numbered bags?
Also, I can’t find any analytics tools on Bricklink, i. e. past sales figures
for all items sold. Is there such a toll/report?

Thanks so much!

The best way to sell sealed numbered bags would probably be either as an incomplete
set (if you know which set they came from) or as a custom item. BrickLink doesn't
really have any analytics tools, but you can download a spreadsheet of your past
sales at

https://www.bricklink.com/orderExcel.asp?orderType=received

and do some analysis yourself. I am sure that there are also third-party analytics
tools out there, but I don't know of any.

Note that you won't be able to see which items were sold more than six months
ago—only summary statistics like total number of lots/items, order total, etc.

Thank you very much! That is very helpful!

Hello,

Check out BLS Manager for some stats/analytics.

It has inventory sell-through numbers (when data is available), sales, inventory,
and store stats.

https://inspacesoftware.com/blsmanager

Let me know if there is anything you need that isn't in the app or needs
improvement. More charts are in the works.

Erwin

My anti-virus software doesn't like your file. Suggestions? Thanks for the
information! Would love to see what you've developed!

Without opening them:
1. Identify set from any three parts you can see in the bag: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogIn.asp?viewMulti=Y
2. List the bags as New - Incomplete in the relevant set page.

After opening them:
- List individual parts as New.
- List set as Used if you intend on completing it like I do, mentioning the bag
of new parts.
