I am replying in general to this thread... which IMHO is a complete waste
of time and bandwidth.

Dan has provided a wonderful service.
I think whatever rules he decides to implement are fine.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to (and I am reaching here.. I know)...
understand that people most likely SEARCH for parts before hitting any
particular store "just because they have a lot of parts". Part count
ain't it folks... its whats on my wanted list... and I can tell
you most of the sites with "lots of parts" dont have what I want.

If you dont like how the mall operator runs the business... well...

It would be interesting if Dan could somehow generate a study about
the usage of Brickbay... how people typically traverse the site...
but I would consider it a waste of time.

My guess is people do 3 things..
1. Check the lots posted today list.
2. Check their wanted lists
3. Maybe.. search for parts that they just realized they need...
   (but a savvy user of Brickbay will simply add parts to their
    wanted list to make life easier)
   hmm... that just made me think... wouldn't it be nice if we
   could store "project want lists" on brickbay? :)

Oh well.. enough of this.
No flame intended.
Thanks for your time.
Tom

(...) Maybe. Maybe not. Dan J. has in the past implemented suggestions that people made here and elsewhere (I won't go into how many and whose, not productive, but I do know some of my previous ones have made it...) (...) A great general principle. (...) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

(...) I think it's important to discuss, but maybe the appropriate place is lugnet.market.theory. Follow up set. Julie (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

Ok, this should be interesting... I put a few rarer parts up on Brickbay. Someone wanted to see BAYLIT on Brickbay.. Well... Sorta, but not quite, but it should prove to be interesting... Any thoughts? -Jon (URL) (24 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
