    Bulk Bricks, Plates at S@H —Maggie Cambron
   I was just browsing the online S@H and notice they have restocked their selection of bulk bricks and plates-- for instance, 1 x 4 bricks in white, light gray, and black. Don't know how long they've been there, but there is definitely more of a (...) (22 years ago, 12-Aug-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
   
        Re: Bulk Bricks, Plates at S@H —Richard Marchetti
     (...) Is this a joke? Finding the bulk listings has become almost impossible on Lego.com. Amongst the 45 bulk offerings are small sets that do not qualify as any kind of bulk. The price for common bricks remains higher from S@H than from sellers on (...) (22 years ago, 12-Aug-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

      (...) Huh? It used to be really hard---you had to go through page after page of randomly jumbled parts packs. Now you just go to "Accessories And" in the menu bar (which admittedly, and for no discernable reason, only works when Javascript is turned (...)

          Re: Bulk Bricks, Plates at S@H —Richard Marchetti
      (...) Ah, you know what it is? They have ingeniously forgotten to make the site Opera compatible. The whole "Browse the Shop" and "Browse By" menus do not work in Opera. I almost hate to mention, why do their work for them? Sheesh, Bricklink is so (...) (22 years ago, 12-Aug-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory)
     
          shop.lego.com Broken —Thomas Garrison
      (...) Wow, that's amazing. I guess I've become too Galeon-dependent---I can't remember the last time I even looked as shop.lego.com from the Windows side. Kudos to the lego.com Web team---browsing (at least for the United States) is no longer (...) (22 years ago, 12-Aug-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)

      (...) Yes, but what percentage of the General Public (i.e. Parents) use Galeon or Opera?? I think it is a case of both of you not being members of the Primary Target Market group. Paul Sinasohn LUGNET #115 (22 years ago, 13-Aug-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)
     
          Re: shop.lego.com Broken —Richard Marchetti
      (...) I can't believe you wrote that -- you're basically defending bad code / bad design. There is no reason for a simple left nav to bomb in ANY browser.

      (...) I don't see this as being that kind of issue -- we are talking about a simple left navigation device. 60% of one's time? Just do it right the first time and keep reusing the code.

          Re: shop.lego.com Broken —Scott Arthur
       (...) Lego.com is a site which sells Lego. If the extra 5% of users can pay for the extra development costs and return a decent margin the answer is "YES". It is all about costs and benefits. Scott A (22 years ago, 13-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

         Re: Bulk Bricks, Plates at S@H —James Brown
