TheDarkness Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Excellent! Love the work you put in guys! Very excited about the extra data as now I can get more of a true indication of what my portfolio is worth here. Quote
TheOrcKing Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 I am not a fan of Craigslist, so I hope people don't look at it that way. I think you will see its different than that.Nor am I. Bricklink is more organized and better than Craigslist is, which is saying something. I get Craigslist is for a multitude of items besides Lego but trying to find one decent nearby listing is a royal pain. I'll take Bricklink any day of the week.Let's see. Basically with the Brick Classifieds, you only pay $1 or less to advertise any size set, have tools to calculate shipping before the transaction, a simple feedback system, and absolutely no commission and/or hidden fees whatsoever. Sounds like a brilliant mix between Craigslist and Bricklink, without all the garbage.This is gonna be EPIC! Quote

Tilted Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 With so many bright ideas, no wonder Brickpicker is thriving! The ROW data will be very useful, thank you! Quote

Jeff Mack Posted March 28, 2013 Author Posted March 28, 2013 Woot! I'm happy with the new data from he UK and Germany. basically the two biggest second markets in Europe. Yes, we are very excited about this too. We know it will be a massive improvement to the set guide overall and really make it useful to a huge population of LEGO fans, collectors, investors, etc. Quote
TheDarkness Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Will you be able to switch between countries to see what your portfolio is worth there? When will the international feature become available? Love your work guys. This is a fantastic site, and it's the first one I check every morning always scouting for a deal! Quote
Celes Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 This is my favorite site right now, I really can't afford lego so I'm thinking of making a mini-business based of lego so I can finally afford them, looking forward to buy here in the near future . Quote

I should start getting the data next week. Then I will have to figure out the best way to separate and integrate. The one issue I have to sort out is the German data. All the listings are in, well, German So I may need to hire someone to translate 10,000 set titles for me :) Quote

kerrmando Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Brickpoints for Translations sounds great! Quote
CNH1974 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Or you could use Google Chrome, it can auto translate web pages. Besides, aren't the numbers the same? Quote
comicblast Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Or you could use Google Chrome, it can auto translate web pages. Besides, aren't the numbers the same? You probably haven't used it for school ever before, but teachers always tell you to never use google translate. It's so bad!!! Quote
CNH1974 Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 It worked for me to buy from amazon Spain. And it does not change the buttons, which made the German site tricky. :) Quote

Ed Mack Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 Oh well...Forget the German eBay auctions. Too much work to translate. I'll have to tell Jeff to use the Chinese eBay market. ;-) Quote
