Dear all,

Thank you for all your interest in the MOC Pop-Up Store, we truly value all your
input!

Our aim is to create a program that will make the most sense to all involved.
In a pilot setup everything will not be perfect but based on your input we will
be able to adjust for a potential future program.

During the pilot we are very focused on finding out whether this is in fact something
that is of interest and that it makes sense to continue building on in the future.

To avoid any misunderstandings we should clarify that all sellers on BrickLink
are considered in the check-out process for the MOC Pop-Up Store like any check-out
on the platform in general, we are not only working with a few invited sellers,
everyone is considered and the buyers will be able to choose which stores they
buy from.

We only reached out to a few big sellers to ask for their support to stock up
on certain parts because there is risk involved as explained earlier and the
pilot is only running for 10 weeks, however since we can see that this is perceived
as unfair, we have decided that we will make the aggregated list of elements
available to all prior to the launch of the pilot, this was always the intent
in a future setup just not for the pilot.

We appreciate that so many would like to support this initiative by securing
that as much inventory is available as possible, this will support us in proving
the success of the pilot.

The initial aggregated list of elements will be available once we know which
designers will choose to be part of the pilot, since we will continue to invite
select designers throughout the pilot, the list will be updated weekly thereafter.
The initial list should be available on the site in the beginning of August.
Pleas keep in mind that this list will still vary, some designers might not be
able to get their designs ready for the pilot after all and some designs might
not sell, we want to make that clear so that everyone understands the risk. The
list will include element ID, color, total nbr. of the same part used across
all designs and BrickLink ID.

Please do continue to share your input.
