Site Information and Updates

Got the data a little earlier this month. The update for August 2012 is now live.

I am sorry if this is covered someplace already, but if so I couldn't find it: how could I add sets to the BP database that are not covered yet? I know I can improve existing entries, but what about sets with a number that isn't known to BP yet?

I suspect I'm not the first person to post this, but I get an error when I try to see my minifigs in my brickfolio. Is there something I can do on my end to ameliorate? thanks for running a great site! TNB

OVERALL BRICKFOLIO VALUE AND COLLECTION DETAILS It is only updated until december 2014. Anybody else has this problem. It could be because I adjusted settings to EUR ? or country (Netherlands / Europe)

Hi all, I tried to change my location, but can't seem to find where to do it. It shows me as in Germany, but I live in the USA. Thanks, Bobby

Ed and I want to try out a new referral system to give you another way to earn Brickpoints. For any user that is referred to Brickpicker through your referral link and they register, you will receive 250 Brickpoints. We are going to call this a trial to see how it goes. After they register, you will see them in your referral system here: http://community.brickpicker.com/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=referrals The 250 Brickpoints will be awarded to you once the new member has posted 10 forum posts. We are hoping to get new members that care about LEGO, not a bunch of family signing up to give you points That's why we are saying we are going to tr…

Hello- New here so I apologize if I missed this question searching forums. I have several sets from the new Star Wars series that do not show up when attempting to find them on the Brickfolio search. The new BB-8 for example. Some that I have found missing are: 75177, 75187, 75189, 75190. Have I missed a change with the numbering structure? I simple search for BB8, BB-8 or BB 8 yields no result also. I also can't find one of the previous run sets 75183. Just curious if anyone has had this same issue and if there is a fix. Thanks so much! Alex

If someone could edit the Cuusoo topic, the LEGO with the registered trademark symbol is making it non-openable under Chrome, IE (older version) and Safari on my iPad. Thanks!

I haven't seen an update on this in a while - Is the idea of selling on Brickpicker dead or on hold? Generally, I would see it being somewhat limited - since everyone here is looking for great deals (buy low, sell high). But recently there have been a number of sellers (Willy, etc), that for various reasons have needed to dump their inventory. In theses cases (where profit is no longer the primary goal), the option of selling here would be great.

Here and there I will try a few new things. Personally I like this, but I want to get some feedback. The activity stream will let you know when people do new things. I disabled a bunch because it would be overkill, but instead of having two spots, one for latest post and one for latest topic, this will just show the order of when things were done. You will see the chronological order in which others have replied as well. There is also a new tab in your menu that says "News Feed" (title will probably change, that is just default). http://community.brickpicker.com/stream.html From this point forward, you will be able to see when new things are posted. If …

I use firefox for my browsing and for some reason I cannot log into the forums using it. Just wondering if anyone else is having problems? Maybe an addon causing the problem?

You can now use your own personal photos for the forum and comment avatars. Just click on your username and click on 'Edit Avatar.' There are limitations, 250k in size. Please, nothing foul or obscene. Thanks.

Just wanted to give everyone a heads up about a change in what was a weekly article showcasing the Top 10 Sellers in the US Shop at Home website. Given that the trend seems to be for the list to be filled mostly with minifigure packs, smaller "accessories", and things of the sort, I think it will be more productive to transform the article into a monthly update. I will be tracking the Top Sellers list daily/weekly, and at the end of the month will tally up the results and calculate an average position for each set. The first article will be up the first week of March with February top sellers. Expect a little more info then. Thanks!

I would like to wish one and all a very marry Christmas, and a happy new year full of LEGO's! It's been a great privilege for me to be among great/experienced LEGO investors! I would also like to thank the heads of BrickPicker for they'er fine work and experience they share with the group. Marry Christmas To All!!

There have been some inconsistencies with some sets in the Brickfolio as of the last update. Jeff has been working on integrating the UK, Australia and Germany data, so there have been some issues. Please be patient. It takes time to cycle through tens of thousands of listings if adjustments are made. It will be corrected shortly. Thanks...Ed

Hi, Is there some way to get historical statistics on set values? I would like to see value-curves for both my sets and my collection for more than max. 1 year ago Thanks

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

Can mods please add a Jurassic World sub-category to the Investing & Collecting Forums?

So i entered a couple of these a few days ago to my collection,however when viewing full collection they dont show up,neither do they appear when clicking through view by theme>> promotional

I'm new here, so please excuse me if the answer is elsewhere in the forums. I'm a little confused as to how the Market Value (New) is determined. I was in Target and saw the LSW Planet Series 3 Republic Assault Ship & Coruscant on clearance. I pulled out my phone and entered the part number (75007) on this site and saw that the MV(******) is $19.10. So I said to myself, "Self, this looks like a good deal" and picked up several. After getting home, I investigated a little further and saw that the item was readily available online through multiple major retailers for ~ $9.99. Therein lies my confusion: How can a set have a MV(******) higher (in this case muc…

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

Hello... Jeff and I just added two new forum categories...Bricklink Marketplace and Non-LEGO Deals. The Bricklink section can be used to discuss buying and selling techniques and ideas based on the Bricklink site. Please do not promote your Bricklink stores here. The Non-LEGO Deals will work like the LEGO Daily Deals page. Members can post great deals on NON-LEGO related items like toys, collectibles and electronics that they want to share with other members. Jeff and I are going to monitor the activity on these two sections to gauge interest for our upcoming DAILY DEALS 2.0 and Brick Classifieds and decide whether or not we will incorporate these ideas …

So I've experienced a couple of database crashes today. And some posts have been mysteriously disappearing over the past hour. Security breach? Release the hounds?

A question for the fantastic staff, why not put some function available to download massively data LEGO sets in TOTAL or divided by the THEME or own BRICKFOLIO ? Maybe as xls file or csv file or simply txt file.... It would be useful for future offline reference, to compare similar but belonging to different years, etc. ... It should have only basic information such as code, theme, year of release, number of pieces, out of production/in production, selling price and current market value.... What about ? All the best.

I have been trying to add sets to our Brickfolio, but with no search results? I have been searching by set number and set name. Any other suggestions of how to find and add the sets we purchased and built? Thanks everyone!!
