  Re: Slashdot (was:Bad News for Brickbay!?)
 
(...) I think it's a bit luck-of-the-draw as to which "editor" reads it. I've only ever had 1 story accepted 8?( ROSCO FUT off-topic.geek (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops, lugnet.general)

(...) May get added to Quickies. Taco lurks here now and then so I would bet he is aware of the situation already. You could mail him direct and ask. He has been known to be nice on one or two days of the year. [/:-) Best DaveG (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops)

(...) Hi Jennifer I think that would be a fabulous idea. I havn't written it yet. But one project I have thought about would be an order builder. It would look at the components needed to make a specific MOC based on using all new pieces, either (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops)

(...) I just submitted it too. It seems like it requires tons of people to submit anything before they will post it. I'm sure they'll reject it from me too, they reject everything I submit. (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops, lugnet.general)

  Re: Bad News for Brickbay!?
 
(...) ( speculating idly ) I wonder if all the sites that eBay is challenging in this manor got together, might it possible to get class action status ? If so, then they could all combine efforts which might make it a fair fight after all. Ray (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Bad News for Brickbay!?
 
(...) Trouble is, unless he can find a lawyer willing to work pro bono, the cost to find out will be prohibitive. Best thing is probably to tell as many people as possible (in the media preferably). And tell eBay you'll boycott them if they don't (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops, lugnet.general)

  Re: Bad News for Brickbay!?
 
(...) Ever since I first heard of Brickbay I have been wondering why this hasn't happened sooner. It's so obvious that if there was no eBay, BrickBay would never have been called that. It's clearly a trademark violation. But as I posted on the forum (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops)
 
  Re: Inventory XML Export - Interest?
 
Yep, Minifigs are the biggie. I already have a little something that takes a peeron html page and converts it into tab-delimited. It does a good job on the colors, but the minifigs always have to be hand fixed. XML would be great (even without the (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops)
 
  Re: Inventory XML Export - Interest?
 
Jennifer, I'm thinking that the desire for this would be extremely great! ;) I'm assuming that you would be targetting this feature to users of Brickbay? If this is the case, I have a couple of questions / concerns about how this would be (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops)

An organized boycott (another suggestion) would likely do a world of (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops, lugnet.general)

  Re: Inventory XML Export - Interest?
 
yes, yes, YES - please!! Incidently, I'm already using peeron for a VB program I have written for inventory management on my Brickbay store. Part of the functionality is for when I buy multiple copies of sets parting and selling. It allows me to (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jan-02, to lugnet.market.brickshops)
