David Presumably this will be a one off reward. Otherwise if you get more points for having more sets, I have them all. I wonder what the point of collecting the data is - maybe to try to work out how much people are buying from lego online and instore (via their vip account) vs purchasing elsewhere, to see if they can increase the former and decrease the later? I don't think the data sample will be that significant. How many people will (correctly) list their collection on Bricklink as a percentage of collected sets on the planet? Any guesses, 0.001% perhaps? Robert The OP had a banner about registering collections on lego.com not just bricklink. I imagine that significantly more people will use that and hence lego can collect data on what people are buying direct from them vs from other retail stores.
