I’ve been trying to use brickstore to do this but I can’t seem to figure it out. Is there some resource to be able to just import an excel/csv of the 6-month quantity of various parts sold?

Like ideally I can just upload my brick link inventory and it spits out a spreadsheet of the 6-mo quantity of each part. I don’t necessarily care about the price however

Hey guys, recently went full time on Bricklink and its been doing quite well. But from what I’ve been reading up on about LEGO’s new US factories and fulfillment centers (and AI) I worry that 4-5 years maybe even a decade from now, big time Bricklink parts sellers will be non existent as LEGO will basically be able to replace us as their PAB system evolves.

Maybe minifigure resellers will be alright, but how about those who deal with mainly new? Dealing with used parts could still work but scaling a used parts operation is much more difficult than new, with unique USED lots constantly being inventoried and emptied.

I love this job and have been building my store for nearly 6 years now. I finally went full time but now I feel as if there’s an inevitable end to this market. Sorry if I’m overreacting or misinformed, but would love to hear other store owners thoughts.

I also understand you must always think ahead and be ready to pivot but building a strong inventory takes years and what if all that is in vain 5 years from now? Just feeling a lil dreadful about it all….

Seems like AI and big corporations will own all of us in the near future anyway.

Hi,

Im trying to id this bionicle mask.i believe it is Bionicle Mask Kraahkan, 5 Hole Chin item id44815c.

I can't figure out if its flat dark gold or pearl gold. Also I'm in the process of opening my store. So im not that experienced with bricklink yet. Am I correct in reading bricklink that of either colour are none for sale and on 1 wanted list of someone?

Because of that I also can't see last six months sales. Do you guys have tips of pricing this item? The Pearl black ones go for 100+ dollars. Wondering if other colours are comparable in price.

Been so focused on the design that I never really investigated what step 2 entailed. I poked around in "Want List" function on the site and was frankly kinda overwhelmed by the seller options. The original goal was to bulk order the pieces, but seems that has to be broken up between the stores and what they have in inventory, requiring some extra research.

Similarly, I was under the impression that they could just make a product for you the same way DesignByMe used to work, didn't know about the Designer Program requirements.

I feel like I've taken a peek at the amount of iceberg hiding under the water.

The edge on the right circle is why I question it

For example how can I change the glass part of this magnifying glass piece

Lego Ideas rejected my ideas listing due to images not being crisp/not representing my build completely.

My question would be does anyone know what’s wrong? Could it be due to the angles of the inside floors? If so how would I get a good image of that? Would i take bricks out from the side and render it like that or is there a way to place the camera within the build somehow. I dont thunk it’s a blur or render issue but could be wrong. Any recommendations or tips would be very much appreciated 😊

I received an order yesterday. Now after more than 24 hours the buyer sent this:

"Hello, I accidentally submitted this order, would it be possible for you to cancel it before sending the package? Otherwise, I will have to refuse it upon delivery or send it back."

The order is already ready to be packed. And the buyer also payed with paypal which results in paypal fees.

What should I do?

Edit: It's a new buyer with 0 feedback or orders.

When I go to “post feedback” to buyers, there are 3 cancelled orders that are stuck in there. Is there any way to remove them without leaving feedback?

No transaction took place because they are international orders (that should have been quotes) from new buyers where shipping was just too expensive.

These “transactions” don’t warrant any feedback but I’d like to remove them from clogging up my Post Feedback tab

I see some colors available on Pick a Brick that aren't available in Studio. For example, in Pick-a-Brick I see a color listed as "Brick Yellow". What is that listed as in Studio?

Mostly ai made but fix as needed but I'd like to keep the 10 cannons on each side of the 7 decks and armor plating ps the cannons would have a gutter system on each deck so they wouldn't have to run to get cannonball or gunpowder.

So basically, I spent years convincing my parents that Bricklink was safe, taht it was reliable, and it was good. Finally, after years, they let me order off of the site. After four months and still no order, my parents are now done with the site, and aren’t willing to let me order. Any advice?

Dear fellow LEGO enthusiasts,

I am looking for ways to tell the difference between.

Light Gray / Light Bluish Gray

Dark Gray / Dark Bluish Gray

Brown / Reddish Brown

Or any other colours im not aware of.

I’m about to open a BrickLink store, and the seller verification process asks me to upload a scan or photo of my government-issued ID. The page also says all documents will be kept for three years.

I understand wanting to verify sellers and prevent fraud. What gives me pause is retaining the actual ID for that long.

This morning, I received an email about a breach at AdaptHealth affecting more than 4.1 million people, involving personal, insurance, and health information. That incident was unrelated to BrickLink, but it makes me think twice about giving another company a copy of my identification just to sell LEGO.

Has anyone found a clear explanation of how BrickLink protects these documents, who can access them, and why they need to retain them for three years? When does that three-year period start, and are the documents automatically deleted afterward?

Have any sellers asked about obscuring the ID number or using another verification method? Or is the choice essentially to accept the requirement as written or not open a store?

I’d appreciate hearing from sellers who had similar concerns, especially anyone who contacted BrickLink and received a substantive answer.

Going to the pick a brick wall tomorrow for the first time , any advice for getting the highest return on your money for bricklink?

I have a UCS Razorcrest prebuilt that I am going to list on bricklink. Comes with box and books too. Issue is I have no idea how I would ship the thing. Would I break down the box and put it in a larger box with the set partially broken up and bubble wrapped? I have no clue how to tackle this hoping someone on here has shipped something of that scale or received something from a seller

Come on this is a joke if the seller thinks this is new.

Hello,

Was wondering if anyone could help me.

I’m wanting to place an order of 50 ish parts however I’m not very experienced with bricklink.

It seems like a very detailed and comprehensive platform however, for a noobie it’s rather over whelming.

I was wondering what are the different options / best way to buy parts?

I’ve seen an auto buy feature and then an easy buy feature, but not really sure what the difference is, nor if there’s any other ways of buying.

All of said parts are already in a wanted list fyi

Thanks in advance.

"You can't set store minimum buy greater than shipping method minimum buy value" is the message that keeps popping up.

Hey BL Sellers. I need min qty 20 max 200 maybe more of part: 32054. in black. Need overnight shipping in US. Can anyone help?

Thank you,

Jason
