ToyWiz seem to be more and more common these days...

Is anyone really buying from there.  Aren't their prices generally quite high?

yes, thats the problem it seems to be showing as instock (10237, 10240, 42009, etc), but only available from toywiz.  not sure if that can be filtered out or identified in some way.

I am trying to filter out the ToyWiz stuff on there.  I only want it to show when Walmart is the seller.  I do not want to add anything extra for ToyWiz.  Walmart changes their page all the time, that is why sometimes prices don't show.

For the past week, the time in the Latest Forum Post on the front page is a static "less than 1 second ago".  Is anyone else seeing this?

Hello,

I am very new on this site, but I still struggle to understand the term "New Value" on "Price guide values table" like on this page: http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/set.cfm?set=42022-1#showEbay which is 33.47 USD. 

But where does this number came from?

I am sorry if I am posting this question to wrong part of the Forum.

Thank you

Mike

Welcome to the site. Values are determined by averaging the last 30 ebay sales. It's not a perfect science but it's meant to give you a rough idea of the sets value.

Hi,

I have 7 sets in the collectible minifugs session - but when I click on them 'SEARCH RESULTS: 0 ITEMS" appears.

Teh same happens when I search for e.g. 8804-0 - nothing is found in my portfolio.

Pretty sure it's safe.

No problems for me.. are you accessing this from home or from work? Either way, can you follow the More information link to report it as safe?

From Microsoft's own site describing the SmartScreen filtering in Edge for Windows 10:

From the warning page, you can choose to report this site as a safe site. Click More information, and then click the Report that this site does not contain threats link to go online to the Microsoft feedback website, and then follow the instructions.

to gregpj - Using my own desktop at home... same as everyday... I did report it as "safe"  (even tho I have no way of knowing)... but still, anytime I go to any page with any new content (even this page with your "new" comment), I get the "unsafe" screen.

[Jeff Mack]

Is there anything different at all that you did?  Are you trying to go to https instead of http?

[Kenxxx]

Nothing new. Not done any updates that I know of.  I'm clicking on the "favorites - thumbnail" on my explorer start page... it has http://community... address.

[Jeff Mack]

When is the last time you cleared your browser cache?

[Kenxxx]

Just now... and problem issue continues the same.

Ok, I honestly don't know then.  I have tried two PCs with different versions of IE and no warnings.  If anyone knows why this is happening, please PM Kenxxx and try and help him out.

This is an old link, but it seems to reference a similar problem.

Wouldn't be the first time a browsing issue affects only me and not the rest of the internet  Seems to be only on explorer / edge... I switched to chrome and everything seems fine.

I still have the same problem?

Hey guys. When I try to go into brickfolio or the lot calculator the site asks me to login. It's a never ending cycle.

[cissi]

Just now, in some of the new post email from the DD thread... it leads me to 'what to buy or sell' thread when clicking on 'go to this post' instead of the DD thread. Normal when clicking on the hyberlink to DD thread.

If you want to forward that email to [email protected], I can check into what you are seeing.
