    S@H on line pick a brick —Jonathan Lopes
   I don't recall seeing this anywhere. Looks like through factory, you can now buy bricks w/o making a creation. (URL) Jonathan (18 years ago, 4-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping) !!

     (...) I hadn't seen that... even more to my liking, I saw both 9V parts (bogie plates), and *Technic*!! Not a lot yet, but at least some. (18 years ago, 4-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping)

     (...) Wow - excellent news! This is pretty much want I wanted from Factory - BrickLink via TLG. Thanks for pointing this out, Jonathan. Marc Nelson Jr. (URL) Marc's Creations>> (18 years ago, 4-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping, FTX)
   
        Re: S@H on line pick a brick —Raymond Flournoy
     (...) I bet they noticed that a large number of customers were using the Factory this way, and figured this was more efficient. I myself bought a couple of the engineer minifig "model" that someone had posted, and the tiny 4 part bag came packaged (...) (18 years ago, 4-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping)
    
         Re: S@H on line pick a brick —Jonathan Lopes
      (...) Wasteful indeed. I bought 20 copies of Tim Goulds dark red wall (about 112 dark red 1x2 bricks in each). Each time I also rec'd bunch of factory boxes. (which went right into the recycle bin). Interestingly, I ordered these 10 at a time, and (...) (18 years ago, 4-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping)

        Re: S@H on line pick a brick —Mark Papenfuss
     (...) I am not seeing anything new here - other than the front page and what they are calling it. I spot checked 1 or 2 items in each category and each one has been for sale for a few years now according to Bricklink. Looks like the same stuff that (...)

     (...) (URL) was looking at the links that take up most of the page on the link given in the original post: (URL) "Bricks & Pieces By Shape Categories" that overwhelms the tiny text link above it that has all the old part sets in it. Maybe they (...) (18 years ago, 4-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping)
   
        Re: S@H on line pick a brick —Gerhard R. Istok
     I wonder how many kids are going to make the mistake of mixing "earth blue" with "bright blue". My heart skipped a beat momentarily with the "2x2 outside corner" bricks, only to be let down... they're DARK BLUE. It's not as though TLG has an entire (...)

         Re: S@H on line pick a brick —David Eaton
      (...) Yeah, they've got almost enough to do a useful roof-- but no genuine peak pieces! (apart from (URL)) On the plus side, you can sort of make do with what is available. With no peaks. And flimsy construction of concave corners that look a little (...) (18 years ago, 6-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping, FTX)
    
         Re: S@H on line pick a brick —Jordan Schwarz
     (...) There are indeed some pricing idiosyncracies. However, a few of these work to the advantage of the consumer. For example, large spruce trees are now cheaper (10 for $6.40) than the bulk bag (10 for $6.99). The same is true for train rails (8 (...) (18 years ago, 13-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping)
    
         Re: S@H on line pick a brick —Ted Godwin
     (...) In Canada the difference is more pronounced but opposite for the rails: 8 pack of straight rails=$18 or $2.25 each online PAB per rail= $2.50 each And of course every element I wanted and I looked at was available for 50% or less of the PAB (...)

        Re: S@H on line pick a brick —Sid Dinsay
   (...) This pricing system is a bit of a rip-off, if you think about the number of the same bricks that could be stuffed into those Lego cups. As BrickLink puts prices on some of these items to shame! :-) (18 years ago, 9-Oct-06, to lugnet.market.shopping)
