Bad Ideas? BrickLink changes? And a good LEGO deal

[@BlockHeadUK]

Agree that I hate the new “upgrades” to BL. I use the Colour Guide page a LOT. It used to be 2 clicks from the home page and now it's 4!! So much for improvements. 🤨

[@ForBricksandGiggles]

Agree about the fees! I keep waiting for the day that happens and I so hope it doesn't! Not impressed by the update. Definitely makes things harder for no reason. I'm sure I'll acclimate but it just seems unnecessary!

[@thomashayes507]

Rule number 1 with any system is “if it’s not broke, don’t fix it”!! The “upgrade” of Bricklink completely sucks! The eff’d up something that wasn’t broken!! Too many drill down clicks now to get to anything!! 🤬

We have a train ride like that in the Santa Cruz Mountains here in California; it’s really cool!

[@jmklamm]

Definitely taking me some time to adjust. I feel like brinklink should be more customizable for users because there are so many “power users”. I really wish they’d spend some time on the search results and buying from wishlists.

Overall the cleaned up design isn't bad, they just have the wrong items in top positions IMHO. Why do I need to have the customers view of the store within two clicks, while the inventory is hidden somewhere (settings!)? Same from a buyers perspective: Wanted Lists and My Orders are primary functions, not "community" or even "Studio".

Great video jaabo keep up the great work nice t shirt happy holidays 😁

[@diatonicdelirium1743]

It's quite horrible to get a thick 'menu bar' of useless options. What do I use often... search, wanted lists, carts (as a buyer). Marketplace? No. Studio? No. Designer program? No. Community? No. Oh yeah, scrolling through the left-hand column in a store is screwed up as well...

Great coverage 😊

[@jaimengrove1127]

I’ll say that I do like the update to BL, my only complaint is that wanted lists take an extra click now. It seems like the redesign is heavily emphasizing BL Designer Program since it is right in the middle now. Aesthetic changes are cool but I agree that functionality changes would be better

[@Stereomoo]

I'm interested in the BL Designer Program for about 3 days per year, when they publish the final versions of sets and when they go up for sale. Other than that I'm not really interested in interacting with it... seems like a good case for one of the popup news items (like when they announce downtime) but what do I know.

[@MartenFerret]

I see you have a new avatar. Have we 364 more to look forward to? lol

[@MayoHosko]

They probably ended the magazine because they raised the price. nobody knows about Disney the sarcasm is strong with this one. I don’t use bricklink a lot so I probably won’t notice the changes

[@Mardigrasman23]

Oh no. Time to look for brick journal on eBay.

[@ArjanGroe]

Jaabbo… dont say it 🤦‍♂️ they will raise the fees…

[@gamerboyofficalyt]

What were they thinking!

[@jsnsk101]

I hate the new bricklink, everything is hard to find now, i dont know why sites that get optimized for mobile become horrendous to use on an actual computer. Edit, judging from the comments its crap on mobile too

[@chriscummings4206]

I'm sooo tired of the LEGO INSIDERS commercial! I almost want to make a parody of it, showing someone just throwing money at a LEGO set only to find out it's a thousand dollars. LOL 😂

[@Jaabo37]

I left a comment on the video for the ad then they disabled comments on it - lol

[@DavidGodwin-l5u]

Hey Jaabo… um, not LEGO related comment… I’m concerned… on your recent videos, I can hear you wheezing when you inhale!? Unless you are getting over a cold, or are a secret chain smoker, a little concerning I can hear a slight whistle every time you take a breath! 😬 Stay well Jaabo! …Merry Christmas to you and the Olsen family 🙂

I use my phone like everyone. Lego have @#£%^&& it right up.
