Kanns nicht empfehlen, als laie verstehe ich einfach nicht wie man bei Brick link einkauft. Angebot bekommen, nirgends die Option gefunden das Angebot anzunehmen. In der Email intern geht es auch nicht. Keine Ahnung wer das alles programmiert hat, design grafisch und technisch absolut veraltet. Es ist die erste Plattform, bei der es extrem schwierig ist durchzublicken. Daher kann ich es keinem empfehlen

Poor customer service with untrained employees. After requesting simple documentation from the company, they were defensive and evasive. I wouldn't do any business with BrickLink again.

Crowdfunding? That has been ridiculous. No fairness at all. For many people it was just not possible to be connected on time (those who think differently, good for them) The same for using the ‘glitch’. Poor excuses to not make more set available. And last, this set is another category as the previous designer castle. Just look at the minifigs and the details. Sad that a minority who could get one blame those who had funerals, sick children to care, work, sleep after long day of work, traveling without network, etc etc etc.

People posting about how great the designer program is are just here to try to drown our negative reviews. This program just exploits the fan base by making unnecessary scarce supply. Bricklink even admitted that they made a mistake by allowing 5 sets be purchased by one user on an exclusive lottery. Yet did nothing to try and rectify this and leaves the fan base open to significantly inflated prices in six months. Very disappointed in the bricklink designer program. Current format seems to value exclusivity for resellers over real fans. Change program to give exclusive box and figure for first 5000 people and let people get the set they want. I think the forced exclusivity is to actually get the fan base worked up to then buy at really marked up prices.

Poorly run with unfathomable decisions made. Unacceptable and infuriating.

I was really hoping to be able purchase the new castle set from the designer program. Only to find it was sold in less than 30 minutes and no further set to be supplied. It simply makes no sense to have only 5000 sets for program which requires at least 10000 supporters !!??? And the cherry on the top is to allow up to 5 sets per person, opening the doors for those resale scammers to exploit the true fans of the product .

BrickLink’s crowdfunding program is a really negative experience. The program is misrepresented as it is really an exclusive lottery. Instead of crowdfunding where fans can get a project off the ground. Fans that love the set are unable to get even if they are on time with the offering. Sets often go to resellers that then mark up prices by 2000%.

Bricklink started a Crowdfunding project for multiple sets. First of this wasn't a crowdfunding but a lottery and has nothing to do with financing a project to start a bigger production your in and get one of the exclusive sets or your out. Secondly the availability of the sets was extremely low inducing manufactured scarcity which has already resulted in extreme scalping. Very disappointing experience.
