| Yeah I know, don’t do that 
But he's one of only eight Violet Bricks, out of currently 72,711 BL registered
sellers. Can’t believe it’s a staggering 1,760,236 currently registered overall.
One of eight, Sylvain! You're flying in the rarified air, my friend
Then my thoughts went somewhere they hadn’t previously been: Who are the most
prolific buyer only accounts on BL? I'm talking about those that only
ever have been here to spend money, feeding us vendors Although in any
given month, some understanding of who's got the highest sales numbers using
the Featured and Highlighted store page, is available, there really is no way
to know who is dropping the most coin on BL.
There are some indicators of purchase-activity, gleaned from history vis-à-vis
feedback over time. Turns out that there's only three straight buyer memberships
that have reached the feedback level of Dark Pink here. Two of which incidentally
I’ve dealt with over the years, as I'm sure many other here, also have:

Aren't prolific buyers just high volume amazon drop sellers? Selling bricklink
sellers' stock on amazon for a higher price than here.

are or not, I still appreciate their patronage...

He uses Lego to do charity work for little kids in Mexico. One of the kindest
persons you can meet. He is our top recurring BL customer, his orders are always
very colorful.
Niek.

If I'm not mistaken the buyer with the most orders on bricklink is one of
the USA companies that builds custom sets to resell. I've had a few orders
from them and always can tell its them as they ask to write the order number
on the package

I bet that's correct as I have had many orders from them if we are thinking
the same shop. I am happy with the orders but the one shop I have dealt with
are horrible communicators, do not leave feedback and send mean spirited PM's
so I have stopped selling to them. I'd rather pay off my Karmic debt than
lose sleep over the way they bully sellers. Just my experience, and I have the
receipts (and screenshots of said messages from purged orders)

I'm not sure.
But I've seen specialized shops on eBay FR at least which sell Plates in
bags of 4x or 10x... and so on - at a high price, but it's also normal
due to eBay fees, like 1€.
Those probably buy here Plates in bulk by 1000s at a really low price, like 2
cents ea.

It's OK, I can breath, I've a big mouth maybe you noticed?
Thank you - and absolutely no idea how we achieved this, especially having 0
cent from start.

Oh that's interesting!
Now I've to check if I left them a feedback or they never came into my shop
Seriously I don't know. Possible the most buying are either crazies, or
selling on other platforms (like eBay), or building small sets sold on their
website?
Really interesting question, thanks Cory.

makes a cool life.
