How We Add Used Parts To Our BrickLink Inventory While Still Consolidating Lots - A FASTER METHOD
In this video, Evan explains how we here at Just A Brick In The Bucket add used pieces to our inventory while still consolidating our lots together. While it is slower than adding all the parts as a new lot, we have found a quicker process that helps to increase efficiency when adding consolidated lots. The basis for our method is to split us adding additional lots and adding consolidated lots into two separate tasks, letting consolidate pile up until we feel it makes sense to add it. This then saves time and lets us add more parts at once in a single pass through the store.

Good video! I'm also a fan of consolidation. As a seller, I don't like to have multiple lots of the same part. As a buyer, I really hate stores who have multiple lots of the same parts: you have to scroll through many pages of the same stuff, and often they are priced differently so it's a hassle to have ot search for the best price, especially in larger stores. Even if filling up the store without consolidation goes quicker, it's also a lot messier.

I wish I could give this video multiple thumbs up. I believe this is the most useful video that y’all have posted so far. I also like to consolidate my drawers.

[@imAlico64]

Awesome, thanks for showing! Glad you followed up on my question this quickly :D

This is awesome. Learning lots

[@JustABrickInTheBucket]

Glad to hear it! Thank you for watching!

[@legobricksbe]

First to congrats you guys on 5 k subscribers!!

[@RaingerRain]

Hi, Great video, it reminds me of your original tutorial videos. I have one quick question though, do you have any quicker/easier method of consolidating new parts straight from sets??

[@vDC2me]

I think one intrinsic value created by consolidating versus absolutely no consolidation, is the liquidation value. If you guys decided tomorrow because life changed or the value of your product has changed, you can receive a higher value from a buyer if they would like to buy a portion of your store. It would be more assuring buying large quantity knowing that each bag is going to have the quantity. Versus a large unconsolidated mess that would be hard to liquidate that product beyond the price of bulk.

Guys this was really helpful in understanding what happens to pieces after they have been separated. It was extremely clear to even a novice.

4:57 wait your down arrow works now ?!

[@TheRewiredSoul]

Do you have any videos on adding just a bunch of random parts? How to identify them and add etc? We had a bunch of loose pieces, and I'm new to this so I don't even know what a lot of them are lol

[@JustABrickInTheBucket]

Coming soon!

[@viktor1504]

Do you put these as new or used?

[@ProblemHelfer]

how did you find all this drawers in all this walls? is there any way to plan your storageroom in Blicklink? or Brickstore?

[@Blackadder75]

you just number them #1-500 #501-1000 #1001-etc etc.. If you work there every day, you will know them by heart very swiftly

[@zoesteib619]

Do you find new or used easier to sort

[@JustABrickInTheBucket]

New is significantly easier and quicker to sort and add to the inventory, but the margin is slightly lower on new. It is also very hard to consistency source new parts, where as people are always getting rid of used LEGO which makes it easy to source!

[@MikeTheLegoFan]

This only works if you have all the parts on your store including remarks…

[@dunkie69er]

Any reason why you don't just open your store inventory in brickstore and copy your remarks to the box sheet you are working on? It's way faster than doing brick merge and it's all in one application. Great video though!

[@DavidWestDNABrix]

Controversial opinion in these times!

How do you set that consolidated file to consolidate when you upload to bricklink using brickstore

[@jimharrison5993]

Have you tried keeping it as one file with new lots and consolidated lots for the upload before? They way I've done it after uploading BSX file to Brickfreedom and getting back the file with the remarks: Save a copy of the file for the bsx file for backstock and the original for eventual upload. You can run through the back stock file and sort it by remark. When you do run into elements that are oversized for the location you can pull the drawer/s. When you go back to the original file you can just scan over the existing remark for the move, and then just make sure at the upload screen on Bricklink you have have it set to Consolidate remarks by "New Remarks" and it becomes one upload, put new lot drawers back as well as relocated lots. As always great content - HH Bricks.
