Site Information and Updates

I know several board members have inquired about the number of sealed bags for sets. I was wondering if we could add that feature to the lego set description. I know most of the old sets would be hard to find but we can at least start with modern sets. I am sure the members here would have no problem supplying the information. I just opened my Ewok Village and can supply the info for that set or any set I decide to build.

If you already haven't noticed, we added Amazon.com's Best Sellers in the Toy Building category on the homepage. The TOP 100 SELLING LEGO SETS ON AMAZON.COM shows the most active and sold units(LEGO sets) on Amazon.com. Similar to the EBAY TOP 50 SELLING LEGO SETS , this data should enable you, the LEGO investor/collector, gauge which sets are hot and which are not. NOTE: The data is updated continually and the LEGO set in the uppermost left hand corner is the Top Selling set on Amazon.com, with decreasing sales from left to right, down the list.

I was just wondering when we will get to see new investing videos. I have seen them all and I really enjoyed them.

Looking through the forum it seems like nobody posted since around the time Brickpicker.com went down for me. I tried Internet Explorer and Chrome and those didn't work. I'm assuming it was some site maintenance work or something of that nature. Was anybody else not able to access Brickpicker.com for the last couple of hours till now?

Hey all, I want to make sure that this site benefits from as many of my Lego purchases (through click through links) as I can. I have been adding some things to my Amazon shopping cart, using the click through links on the daily deals thread, that I plan to purchase Monday or Tuesday when our next Lego money frees up. Will those shopping cart items "hold" themselves as coming from this site? or do they at some point reset, this site loses the credit for the sale, so really I should click through the links fresh when I am ready to buy?

Hi everyone, I have been working on something for a few days. It is a LEGO set compare tool. You will be able to enter in up to six sets. If you feel that I need to add more sets on to compare, I will, not a problem. It will give you side-by-side comparison of the sets which includes the basic set information as well as the value information. I feel this will be a great tool when you are having a hard deciding on what set to buy next, wondering the difference between two or more sets or trying to come up with good pricing to sell sets. Take a look, try it out. Any bugs, report them to me. Any ideas or thoughts on what else would be good to add to it, let me know…

Curious if anyone thinks that there should be a forum called "Multi-media" or "Brick-Videos" something of that nature? Posting reviews (users), showing off our collections, rants and other videos related to LEGOs. Discuss!

I've been trying to add the newsfeed from http://www.brickpicker.com/news/ to Feedly but it's only showing articles from last June and prior. Anybody else having the same issue?

Sorry if this is a stupid question - do the set values change monthly?

I hope this is not a silly question but why October's price/transaction data is still not available?

We have just created/moved a number of forums into a "Small/Retired/Miscellaneous Themes" Forum/Subforum area. It's a grouping of LEGO themes that may not necessarily be big enough for their own main page topic. Over the next couple of days, we will be moving some of those topics into the appropriate theme areas. If there is anything in particular that you happen to catch, feel free to "Report It" it to the mods, so we can catch it and move it. Enjoy!

I don't know if I should be posting in this thread, but I couldn't find any other remotely on topic. We all, more or less, use the Brickindex to check out which sets are top performers during the last 6 months. But I'm wondering if we could also see which sets are top performers in the last year, 5 years or from when they first showed up on the market. I already shared this idea with Ed. The main point would be to have an index where we could see the best sets over their lifespans and how well they appreciated. I bet there are a lot of people wondering how much did this and that set cost when they started selling and how much they are selling for today. Thanks …

Hello, I love this site and find it very very very helpful. I visit multiple times a day. I've noticed in the Amazon discount page that the lego angry birds which are currently discounted are not showing up on brick picker's discount page. Anyhow. A thousand thank yous for this great site.

I apologize if this has been asked before. Is their plans to add a sell feature to our Brickfolios so that we can track our realized gains?

...that every week there are hundreds of new people on this site?

Not sure if this is the right place to post this if not I am sure it will be moved to the correct place. Recently all the graphs in my brick folio don't seem to load. All it says is graphs will show up here loading. It only stopped working 2 weeks ago.Not sure if this matters but I am using cad for currency and not USD. Iam I missing something. Or are other people having this issue? Thanks

jeff and ed, i tried replying to an older thread but received a "You do not have permission to reply to locked topics.". are we locking theads or is this an error on my end ? http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/312-hogwarts-castle-4842-112-free-shipping/?hl=4842 thanks,

Maybe I am typing in the wrong search terms, but is there a thread regarding how many of any set comes in a sealed Lego cardboard box. For example there are 2 Fire Brigades in one sealed box from Lego. Thanks in advance for the direction.

Hello everybody. I was thinking about how great this site is and came up with an idea for the owners of the site. If you guys read this could you possibly find a way to place a RETIRED logo next to the set as they retire. So when we are checking our brickfolio's we see which set just retired. Maybe even have a category within our portfolio that shows a retired section. Just food for thought. This site is fantastic and I use it almost everyday to feed my addiction for collecting legos.

I don't know how complex of a thing it would be but I would love a real time stock ticker of Lego prices via amazon.com on a websites homepage. It's a random thought, I would imagine people that are more compute savvy would know how difficult it would be to do.

Walmart LEGO Discounts This part of the website seems completely broke. Every item I clicked a link it showed the wrong price when I went to walmart almost every item was a different price and/or out of stock. The prices seem very outdated and the info worthless this part of the site could be very helpful it worked.

With the impending arrival of LEGO Dimensions, I wonder if we could get a forum set up for discussion? There are a number of sets that will be coming soon. We have only one dedicated http://community.brickpicker.com/topic/13829-lego-dimensionstopic on the subject right now, but worry that subject will get overwhelmed pretty quickly (plus, it resides in the "Odds & Ends" forum). There's a couple a different news stories about Dimensions that came out today, and feel like I'd be cluttering up the topic if I post both of them, and we try to have discussions about them, with everything else. Understand either way, just putting it out for suggestion.

So while investigating all this site has offer, I stumbled upon the Brickpoints store. I was wondering, how does one acquire Brickpoints? Thanks.

I just wanted to start posting the members which hit 5000 BrickPoints(or close to it) and the STAR WARS mini set they chose as a prize...Congrats!!! With the new LEGO set review contest, many of you have been moving right up the charts on your way to one of those BrickMaster sets. Keep up the good work!

Hi, i can't catch one thing about market price in the price guide: i know that prices are updated on a monthly basis...so, why do market prices of single sets vary on a daily basis? Thanks
