That's actually the reason we made it - not that brickbay was too high -
but since we (dan and i) rarely buy pieces separately - since then we
wouldn't have the whole set that goes with them - we find which set has
the piece we want in mass quantities - and buy lots of that set. I know
that people use the invs for a lot of different things though -
including verifying that a set they got off ebay is complete, or even
for putting parts up for sale by set, etc. :)

Ditto with the instructions and stickers - one day they'll get scanned -
probably when we both retire :)

I would never encourage inaccuracy, but i agree to a certain extent.
