It's entirely geared towards bulk purchases, and has very unpredictable selection. Bricks & Pieces was set up, primarily, as a way to handle customer issues. If you lose a part, or never even received it, you can use this to order a replacement. If you break a part, you can do the same. They can track all that data so if _everyone_ is requesting a common part be replaced, they probably need to double-check that they're pulling the correct parts for that set. If they get lots of reports of a part breaking, they might need to check for quality issues. B&P was never really intended to be used for bulk purchases, so there wasn't really any pricing in the earliest form, that I recall. But once a wider range of parts became available than what PAB had to offer, they basically had the option of rolling out a way to purchase parts through B&P, or just keep giving them away to anyone who wanted them.Purple Davenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-35725257174021428452019-02-14T20:53:15.690+00:002019-02-14T20:53:15.690+00:00Thank you so much Jonas!

Congratulations!!<br />If you don't mind I'd like to make a small suggestion.<br />You could add one column, where with a simple formula you may link to the same part in BrickLink. This way one can easily have a quick view on how much such elements are being transacted at BrickLink marketplace, to evaluate if it is worth a S@H purchase. sometimes the differences can be huge in both directions, and of course it also depends on the country you live, etc.<br /><br />Taking the yellowish sausage as an example, the link would be:<br />https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=33078<br /><br /><br />TechnicBRICKshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17175086169700921918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-45128310067690442862019-02-14T15:42:04.092+00:002019-02-14T15:42:04.092+00:00https://www.lego.com/en-us/service/replacementpart...https://www.lego.com/en-us/service/replacementpartsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-10826166637392616112019-02-14T15:34:27.956+00:002019-02-14T15:34:27.956+00:00Yes, you can find it under the Replacement Parts s...Yes, you can find it under the Replacement Parts servicesDaghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16702225969943437639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276033407505619194.post-54926795796612027912019-02-14T13:45:14.263+00:002019-02-14T13:45:14.263+00:00Forgive my ignorance but is “Bricks & Pieces” ...Forgive my ignorance but is “Bricks & Pieces” different from LEGO.com Pick A Brick?
