| Can it be considered to change the date/time stamp placed on orders & messages,
etc. from the system time (US EST) to the users local time, as this would allow
accurate information to be captured for accounting, tax & auditing purposes.
I know that BrickOwl & other platforms already do this.
As an example, I physically receive an order at 3am (BST) on 23rd May in the
UK, but the order itself shows and records that the order was received on 22nd
May at 10pm (EST), some 5 hours behind reality.
Note, the date & time format is not an issue.
Thanks.

Yep has been requested many times Unlikely to happen unless Lego forces them
to do it I think. I've spent 15 years having no clue when anything happened
on Bricklink (can never remember the conversion, because I don't feel
it's something that users should have to remember)

Like Teup said, unlikely to happen,
But
My app can be configured to display in BL time, UTC, or local time (and metric
or imperial). Give it a try, it also keeps orders forever once they are downloaded,
no more 6-month purge.
