Site Information and Updates

Hi, New member here. Just a quick question on when the site updates the prices. I have entered a couple of sets that I own, but it looks like the prices are from November? Thanks in advance! P.S. - Great site by the way

I've got my full collection in brickset and I'm happy to see you can now import the collection to the brickpicker brickfolio. However, it seems that imported sets are always set to a condition of "new". Most of my sets are used. I've checked the ACM data on brickset to verify only the new ones are set with a current condition of "MISB" with the remaining as "assembled", however, brickfolio picks them all up as new. Is the feature just not complete yet? I noticed there doesn't appear to be any way to quickly bulk-edit the brick folio so I can set a majority of my sets to used.

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.

Will a new forum be made for the LEGO movie sets? I think it is time...

Hi I'm trying to import my Brickset collection and am having trouble with my username and password. I've cleared my Brickfolio database and then used the import from Brickset link. Every time i enter my username and password i get the message "Your Brickset Login Failed, Please Try Again!" I am using my Brickset login and am able to login to the Brickset website using my username and password with no issue. Thanks Nick

Welcome to the site. While I have no answer to your question I know many others that should. Once they see your post they should point you in the right direction.

I do apologize if this is not the correct forum for this but I don't see another that's any more appropriate. I assumed the BrickPicker blog was part of the BrickPicker Community and so I thought my login on the community would pass through to the blog but it doesn't. When I tried to register it says registration is disabled. Anyone know what's going on? Is the Bri8ckpicker blog just temporarily having issues or is something else going on?

A new feature on Brickpicker is the creation of Price Guide Set Badges (I have attached two examples below). You can just copy and paste the provided code on your website/blog and your eBay listings. It's a great way to add details to help sell your Lego sets. You can select from 12 different currencies (more coming) and it will update daily to reflect changes in the exchange rate values. Right now there are two templates to choose from, but I will create more that are different sizes and have templates that go along with the themes of the sets. Let us know what you think or what else you would like to see included on the Set Badges! Thanks, Jeff

Hey guys, Just curious as to when the next price update is going to be? Have not used this site for very long, but it seems the prices generally update every 3-4 months? Thanks! Luke

Based on all the conversations, forum posts, private messages to talk about local area deals/bargins/sales (whatever you might want to call them), we create a new Forum Category for these deals. For now I created a few individual forums for the main general areas/countries. Please create your own local areas within these forums. We will see how it all starts to pan out and then make the appropriate changes to help make sure members get the most of this useful information. Thank you Jeff

I've written blogs before, but I am trying to add a little chart to it. Right now it is saved as a JPEG. Any tips on how to get this into the blog? I was trying to simply copy and paste it but that isn't working. Thanks for the help!

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.

I notice the brickfolio software will export an inventory to csv, but I don't see a way to import it from csv. In fact the only ways I can seem to find to import into brickfolio is to connect the a third-party website (Brickset and Rebrickable). Am I overlooking the ability to directly import an inventory? Thanks!

New Article in Blog by Eshdaddy about Maximizing Profits!

I was thinking about this idea, but I'm not sure how hard this would be (maybe it's already here). With all of the Minecraft frenzy going around I thought it would be cool if users could be rewarded by giving useful information such as tip-offs to good deals. Kind of like reddit where you could up vote someone's post. Who know's what you would do with the points, but it could be some forum rep. I know right now we have the bricks next to someone's name. I think that's based on how active they are with in the forums.

I dont want to be a ..@!%$*! .. but is there any outline when a new update of current prices can be expected? I understood that during the summer it took 3 months to publish new update, now the dbase shows the last update two months ago. I understand that this is a totally time consuming activity so maybe it could be worth switching from proclaimed "on monthly basis" to "quaterly basis" and leave out all the result for interim months - such as: last results published in june - new results for september and no figures in the graph for july or august. That - in my opinion - could save also a lot of time.

Where can I find more information what this novelty "Trader Feedback" below avatar stands for? I checked the forum for past week (just titles), I looked even into the blog section, but nothing there. And I could swear that it wasnt here last week..

This is more of a programming question. Obviously the site used to use ebay sold listings to calculate values for the brickfolio. A recent comic book app has split ways with another company that supplied them with sold comic book values. In terms of difficulty, how hard is/was setting up a system that records ebay values? I assume you have to pay to get the data from ebay then design you own program to calculate values? How long did this take and how difficult was it?

If you already haven't noticed, we made small changes to the PRICE AND SET GUIDE PAGE. Jeff made the photos a little more prominent and added links to the British and European Amazon.com sites. The Amazon.com listings also show current discounts and percentages off(in green). We will also be adding some other British and European stores to give Brickpicker members more options when pricing and purchasing LEGO sets.

If you were wondering what the new CAGR statistic is on the top right hand side of the Set Detail Page, I wrote up an explanation in the Brickvesting Blog. Check it out. Any questions, please feel free to ask. I think it will be an important statistic going forward...

While trying to add new sets to my brickfolio, I noticed that some (newer) set are showing wrong set numbers/wrong sets are shown. Searching on brickpicker for e.g. 10266 (NASA Apollo 11 Lunar Lander) shows up as {D2C SET}, https://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/set.cfm?set=10266-1 The set 60230 (People Pack - Space Research and Development) is shown as Bionicle Cartridge Pen, https://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/set.cfm?set=60230-1 Is this a bug or a feature? Thanks, André

Is it possible to set up an autologin for the website through the forums. I always forget to login before I browse them so I have to repeat the login process each time I want to add something, can there be an autologin function added through the forum link? *edit - NVM I got it to work through my browers. Keep up the good work!

Firstly thanks once again for all this extra data. But you know this will lead to questions from pedantic people like me I have a question and two sort of related examples from either end of the spectrum. How complete is the data for the UK (and I suppose it applies to EU & Aus as well) and how far does it go back?. Six months rings a bell. Example 1. One of the sets I follow is 10230. This has a BP price of

Hi, I was just looking at the price guide and I see that 10240-1: Red Five X-wing Starfighter is around $276.00. How is that being calculated? I went to Ebay and I see the majority of the sales have been between $180-$200 over the last month. Just curious. Thanks

Good day! Need some help with BrickFolio. Added Angry Birds King Pig's Castle item # 75826 into Bickfolio but it did not show up on 'view BrickFolio items'. This means that I cannot edit or delete this item. However, it does show up on 'my BrickFolio' so I know it is added into the BrickFolio. Anyone's else had the same issue or know a way to resolve? I thought BrickFolio is a superb concept and really hope to get it to work. Thanks for sharing!
