If you're a bit familiar with IT, it is a piece of cake for you to develop an a tool that is able to use the API of BrickOwl. Doinig so, allows me to use my own currency for every item in my inventory. Suppose my items are listed into USD, then I lower the price with 15% as 1eur=0,85usd. Brickstock allows you to convert the prices for selected items. When an order is placed in a foreign currency I need to do the conversion to get my prices into euro's. When an order is placed in euro's will be shown in euro's after import (not with $ sign in front of the prices) and the right prices are downloaded. I manage it as follows : in configuration I set "use local currency" and set 1$ = 1€. But, you need to be careful when buying in foreign currencies.

I guess there must exist some nice tools, but I haven't found them yet.īrickstock allows you to import orders you placed and - if you are a seller - orders you received on Bricklink. However, it is not possible to correctly export an XML from Brickstock. You can import XML into your online inventory. The complicated part is to get your inventory online into Bricklink. You can easily get used to it, but it requires some time before you get there :-) Both are the same colour, but they are called differently in BrickStock. For example "dark bluish grey" as opposed to "dark stone grey". There is a single disadvantage : the colour coding does not match the official lego-colour-namings. You can manage buying rates and selling rates for each piece. You got images for every lego-piece in their tool. It has some nice features to manage your lego-inventory. Managing a personal inventory is not difficult : you have Brickstock which is a desktop-software that allows you to do that. In case you intend to trade and sell pieces, it is a requirement, but as a lego-fan, you probably don't need it. Before starting off with an inventory, ask yourself if you need it.
