I am creating this thread to start posting some updates or sometimes may solicit some feedback for the upcoming Brickpicker v4.0 update. Progress as been somewhat slow, but continuous for a while. It's funny that I just read the the post by Nathan over @ Rebrickable who just launched his 3rd update of the site. Kudos to him. I feel the exact same way. Actually, I think all developers are just a little bit nuts when it comes to expectations and timelines. This is not going to be an in-depth post, just a kickstarter post to give me a place to where I can go to to share my thoughts and ideas as well as to gather some from all of you. You may have noticed my new graphic on the forum index that will allow you to post ideas, members can vote on them and feedback can be given. Its a cool service that allow you to build a roadmap and integrate it with project management software. The past two years I have learned to use lots of fun tool at my 9-5 job (like Jira), and I have learned to become a less chaotic engineer. Anyhow, here is a small bullet list of things to expect with v4.0: Site redesign. Everything will finally all look like its part of the same site. Price guide and Brickfolio overall Yes, sold sets will finally be there Multiple brickfolios for those that have personal and business Lots more data to do your own analysis on your collection Full syncing with Brickset/Rebrickable (instead of just the import only feature that is currently there) Brick Classifieds will be brought into Brickpicker. (probably my most hated thing I did was create a separate site) There will be a premium offering (more info will be released at a later time). There is much more to announce, but I am not ready to go into details until I actually can show a few things. There is no ETA announcement just yet. I will say it will be sooner rather than later, but not ready to commit to date. I want to make sure I will be able to hit and there is still work and QA to do. Anyhow, thats what I have for now. Again, feel free to leave some ideas for other members to read, vote on and see if it can be added into the initial release or we can add it to the roadmap for future release. More to come....

Sorry, but your customer has a point, the picture is of two of them and the price you got is the going rate for two of them. I'd be annoyed too if I was him. I really don't get why people feel the need to take photos of multiple items when only selling one.

I need to just vent some sadness and this forum feels better than any other due to the kindness and true care that each of you have for one another. I'm newer here but come here more often than any other forum out there. Today I learned of a car accident that occurred yesterday and unfortunately took the life of one of my best friends; his wife, whom I also consider one of my best friends, is fighting for her life in critical condition. These two were awesome and cared for others before themselves in nearly every situation. It's a shame that bad things like this occur. I don't think I've been this devastated before and not to put other people I've known who have passed above others, but these two were different and made my life and all those around them, not just "that much better" but incredibly better. Hug and kiss your kids, family and friends. As always, life is too short.

That's nice and all, but I've always been a sucker for a nice haiku. Ahem... Piles of cheap Lego. Money train now departing. Please, how do I sale?

It's the Lego Demission Hot and fresh out the kitchen Homer's rollin' that body Got every one in here wishin' Sippin' on coke and rum I'm like so what I'm drunk It's the freakin' weekend Ebay I'm about to sale me some stuff

"cladner, We have a deal for you!!!"

Lol @ title

Bwahahaha. Daily only for cladner LEGO Deals - tax free NH USA As if he needs encouragement to make purchases.... ?

This. 100%.

I have lots of different boxes of Lego Demission's brand new how do I sale them?

I love it when you cosplay Exiter. Which one are you?

Or that's at least what you tell your wife

Not exactly sure what I said that was wrong......I just stated I hadn't sold any. I didn't ask advice on how to sell or for tips on selling.

Looking forward to some entertaining replies to this one.

It doesn't get much more exciting than this.

Ssshhhh!

Reminds me of a true story I once heard from a first person witness while working at a Dutch bank in the 1990s. This happened before the Euro was the common currency in the EU, when currency exchange still happened with financial transactions between countries (within the EU). And currency exchange means rounding differences... Some smart programmer added a line of code to the currency exchange module to move the 1 cent rounding difference off to a separate account. With thousands of transactions a day these 1 cent crumbles added up to a nice sum every month. And because of rounding errors taking for granted, it was undetected as well. Easy money for him! Then after some time the guy became greedy and increased the 1 cent move to 2 cents per transaction to double his income. But this went beyond the accepted rounding error, triggering a suspicious transactions detection algorithm. The guy was caught and sentenced for fraught. Morale of the story: when you have a good thing going, don't ruin it by becoming greedy!

I'm not sure which kind of picture is the most beautiful - colorful boxes or brown.

I know it's still only February, but I'm predicting this one sentence will sum up 2017 for a lot of Brickpickers.

Person asked a valid question, nothing wrong with it. I understand that the dimensions were only 1 dollar, and the risks were "low" if selling via joblots, but this was only true for people who have done arbitrage / reselling previously. As with any gold rush, alot of new people started seeing the dollar signs and started buying up like mad without a plan, these people are not seasoned FBA sellers / have bricklink stores / know about postage costs etc. Most people who have never resold stuff before will sell a few sets then get tired and dump the rest for minimum profit / break even. We might be hearing this question alot in the next coming weeks from newly registered members. It's easy to post pictures buying pallet loads / how much profit you made etc. But people also need to take responsibility and not make fun when people ask types of questions as most likely they also wanted to get on the gravy train trying to emulate others.

I lost my father in exactly the same circumstances. I never knew him. The only things I do know is what others have told me. Tell those boys everything, even stupid story's about their father, anything so they can build a picture of him in their minds. Show them photos, explain every detail. Advise them, correct them, watch over them, comfort them.... Do everything that their father would have done for them. They'll need someone to be there for them all their lives. Be that person and they'll thank you when they're old enough to understand what happened.

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone! May your day be filled with hope and joy even in these strange times. May you enjoy today and tonight with your cherished ones. May you and your loved one fit together like two bricks!

isn't that the truth. i recently sold a new LOTR set. 1 day after shipping it, the woman thanked me for shipping it so fast and said it's no big deal instructions weren't included as they can be downloaded by her son. she'll be in for a huge surprise when the package arrives.

The tire

"cladner, We have a deal for you (in addition to tax free NH)!!!"

Where do I like the title of this thread?! edit: ninja'd

Must be a targeted NH tax free deal.... I can't get it to work on any quantity of any sets, signed in or not....oh well.

I've had the pleasure of your company before. I'm still waiting on my refund.

Was he in Superman?

I am celebrating 4000 feedbacks tmrw...happy V day!!!

Walgreens helped my 99 Cent Dimensions withdrawals a little bit today. Might be worth a look if you have one nearby.

This thread should be officially renamed "Lego Demissions".

Man, you guys are all way off... Rule #1 of LEGO Investing. You don't sell! DON"T CRACK!!!!

Kmart Clearance is at an additional 20% off. A few good pickups if you have coupons and points to burn.

I believe your first step, to attract the right buyers, is to learn the actual name of the product you're selling. It might help.

They've been quoted as saying it's the ghost. And chopper and hera were on Yavin!

Thanks triple 15. I think this deal is targeted at those without a meijer or Fred Meyer or the IQ for syw magic.

Probably due to all the Melissa McCarthy hype after she impersonated Spicer.

Here’s 15% off – enjoy!

I see you're point on the London busses, but I still agree with Kshine. The buyer obviously thought he was getting two of these. I'd request a return and offer a full refund and move on. In the future, I recommend taking a picture of only one item, so as not to confuse buyers.

The pleasure of our company.

When I arrived at work this morning I watched the sky and my first thought was...."The Death Star arrived" I'm enjoying those movies big time!

I'm curious, what would be included in the premium offering? A meme generator maybe?

I think BPs motto buy first ask qs second...or think later. My first question when i see this... ..how i am going to sell all these...???
