UK: Parts Swaps

TheFew

Hi all,

Is they anyone out there like me currently collecting parts for multiple mocs and looking to save a few pennies by swapping parts with other builders as opposed to buying them all?

If so perhaps we can do a trade?

I have lots of used parts and a BL store.

Would aim to keep any parts swaps UK based (to save postage costs) and with members who have good feedback in the market place. 

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thanks

What sort of stuff are you after?

Various - from fairly standard parts, to rarer parts and minifigs and minifig parts. 

I guess i need to find a way to share multiple bricklink want lists. Or perhaps post screen grabs here?

What are you building? I’ve got a couple of builds planned and a lot of spares.

Most of the way there with all three, but a number of parts still to find.

Will do. I'll work out how to share my various wanted lists (probably a bunch of screen grabs). If you have a list, feel free to share it.

@DeMontes will do. I will try to take some screen grabs latter and post on here.

Some of my lists..

@CCC @babieface75 @DeMontes list of parts I seek above. Sorry if the picture format is a bit tortuous to look at - I could not think of a  better way of sharing the data from Bricklink.

You can download Bricklink wanted lists as XML, which can then easily be converted to other formats if necessary.

Thanks for the pointer. Will have to give that a try and see if I can work out what to do! Can you suggest a format that would work on the forum?

Hmm, the XML only includes part numbers, not names, but using something like this website you can convert it to HTML for a table that can be put into the forum like below. Not hugely useful, though.
