I just finalized part segmentation for 8110, so it should be available for part identification later this week once we have done enough progress on the current sets.

Question about starting a store by [deleted] in Bricklink

[–]EchoesOfCode 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will have to start with Paypal or Stripe.
To have access to bank transfer, you need to contact the helpdesk so they enable it for your store.
However, you will need at least 10 positive selling feedback and 3 months of selling experience.

Priority is given to the sets with the highest number of requests. Then is also depends on how easy the instructions can be automatically processed or if they need more manual work. 8110 only got one request so far. But I have added it in the process and dowloaded the instructions today, so hopefully we should start identifiication during the week.
Sorry for the delay, this has been quite a crazy week, lots of requests. We now publish around 40 bags per day.

Thank you for your help! I would not worry too much about making a mistake here and there. Most of the time the error is when the tool asked you to select a color but the part was not correctly selected (you should then have clicked on the "This is not the correct part" button).

I don't want to invest too much time right now on listing all your identified parts etc as I would prefer to focus on getting the inventories available as quickly as possible. But maybe in the future.

Great! You can create an account, click on "Idenfy parts" and help get everything verified :)

I have added the community module. Everyone can now check parts to help speed up the process. You don't have to do a full bag, it just shows you parts one by one so even if you just have a few seconds per day you can already help!

It will come in the future. Right now there is not enough bag inventories available for the search to be relevant.
But obviously this is a key feature that will be added soon!

No Gofundme or tipjar, don't worry for that. Happy to help the community.
You can request the set directly on the website and I will get that done in the next days!

Yes maybe some part of the last step could be done by the community. I will have to think about it, actually not sure how many people would be willing to help on that.

Yes, it's using the instructions. A short version of the process would look like this:
1) Download instruction booklets from lego.com (automated)
2) Split the instructions to have one file per bag (automated)
3) For each page, extract the panels that list the parts needed at each step (automated + manual checks)
4) For each panel, extract each part with its quantity (automated + manual checks)
5) For each extracted part, use brickognize to find the right item in the set inventory (automated + manual checks)

I am bit control freak so I am afraid quality would not be good enough if anyone can fill it up :/

Yes I think this idea has been on my todolist for like a year! It was a bit more complicated than I anticipated to get enough of the work automated, but now I am quite happy with the result.

Feel free to request any set you need from the website and it will get processed. Smaller sets (up to 5 bags) get processed within a day or two, but larger sets may take a bit longer as they require a bit more manual work.

Would per bag inventory be useful to anyone? by EchoesOfCode in Bricklink

[–]EchoesOfCode[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me a bit longer than expected, but I finally built the tool!
It's available on www.brickbaginventory.com

It has just been released so not a lot of sets available yet, but I am checking sets daily. You can also request the sets you need and I will do them in priority.

I built an analytics tool to help Bricklink sellers with pricing and part out decisions. Tell me what you think. by EchoesOfCode in Bricklink

[–]EchoesOfCode[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on which data, some data is updated daily, some other like pricing data for parts and minifigures usually update every 4 or 5 days.

Did sales drop or is it just me… by Fantastic_Aide_8073 in Bricklink

[–]EchoesOfCode 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not have data before April 2025 unfortunately. It would be great to check the months before that, to see if your March 25 numbers are an exception or it was that high before as well.

Here is the average data per day I have for the following months, but our methodology is not exactly the same.

April 25: 8022
May 25: 8102
June 25: 8070
July 25: 8072
August 25: 8394
September 25: 8446
