I checked Bricks & Pieces today and at the moment you can't, at least not
in the US.

From Lego.com:

"We’re making some improvements to our brick buying experience. To keep everything
going smoothly, we aren’t selling pieces through Bricks & Pieces while we make
our updates. We’ll be back online (and better than ever!) very soon."

Hope this helps,

Thank you so much for your answer. I thought there was some mistake on my part.

I noticed hundreds of torsos and legs disappeared. Hopefully they'll be adding
them from B&P and to the PAB side.

Yeah, already done here. Some parts have disappeared, a few prices went down
but a lot went up. And they now have the handling fee to stop small orders, and
you have to take care whether you are buying from the PAB or BnP side, as they
count to different cart totals.

I'm curious about the parts disappearing, as I've only placed a couple
of smallish personal orders since the change and haven't noticed any yet.
Are they entire parts disappearing, or just individual colours?

It looks like everything's now using the old PAB model where out of stock
items just disappear completely, rather than showing as OOS on B&P, so it'll
be interesting to see whether any of these reappear at some point.
