(...) Actually it's not about how many parts are listed but how many lots - 1,000 parts or 10 parts listed in 1 lot don't make a difference. I think the problem here are the fees - why not list Baylit's existing inventory with prices 2% higher than (...) (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) No, that's not it. You're not out of stock because you have a lot of parts, you're out of stock because you've priced your parts high enough to shut the people who buy loads and loads of parts at once out. That's a good strategy, make more on (...) (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) <snip> (...) Actually, it didn't seem to me you had all that many parts. The scale of parts seemed like it would fit BrickBay very nicely. That said, I was very impressed with your formatting and layout. An impressive site, just not much on it (...) (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) I agree 100%. I also think Jon is a very honest person to deal with. I agree that his prices are sometimes pretty wacky, but he does have some desirable items. You just have to decide whether the price is worth it to you. He should certainly (...) (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) Wow - High praise considering the source. :-) I've already cleaned out the BrickBay shops of certain parts, and went to Baylit, but it took several tries to get that menu thing on the left. I take it his "Part#" doesn't correspond to LDraw (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)

Several thousand USD worth since it opened. That's because I have been finding the (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)

Everything came as ordered nicely packed and I even think Jon put some extra pieces in there. His prices may be a little high but 2 (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)

(...) I've ordered from Baylit before, and it went well. It's a reliable source of parts, and Jon's a good guy. Shipping was (if I recall correctly) very reasonable. Either actual shipping cost only, or very close to it. (I'm in Canada too) (...) (...) (24 years ago, 10-Sep-00, to lugnet.market.services)
