BrickLink is generally online and operational, but there are major changes affecting users right now. If your issue is specifically with logging in, it is likely due to the mandatory integration with LEGO Accounts that occurred in September/October 2025.
1. New Regional Restriction (Most Likely Cause)
BrickLink recently announced that it is ceasing marketplace operations in several countries, effective December 12, 2025.
What this means: While the deadline hasn’t passed yet, the platform is currently rolling out “Operations Updates” to prepare for this shutdown. You may already be experiencing:
Inability to buy or sell items.
Access blocks to certain store pages.
Warning banners preventing normal site usage.
The Fix: Unfortunately, if this is a regional block, there is no “fix.” You should still be able to access the catalog and forums, but buying/selling functionality is being permanently disabled for your region.
2. The LEGO Account Merge (Common Login Issue)
If your issue is specifically with logging in, it is likely due to the mandatory integration with LEGO Accounts that occurred in September/October 2025.
The Glitch: Users often get stuck in a loop when trying to link accounts.
The Fix:
When prompted to merge, sign in using your BrickLink Username (Regional settings often break if you use your email address here).
Do not use your LEGO Insiders email until the second step of the verification.

3. Recent AWS Outages
BrickLink suffered instability in late October due to Amazon Web Services (AWS) outages. If you are seeing a “Server Not Found” or white screen:
This is a temporary server-side issue.
Try accessing the site via a different network (e.g., switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data) to see if your ISP is caching a “down” version of the site.
Summary Checklist
If you see a “Access Denied” or regional warning: This is due to the upcoming India market closure.
If you can’t login: Clear cookies and sign in with your username, not email.
If the site won’t load at all: Disable any VPNs (or try enabling one if you are just trying to view the catalog to bypass regional blocks).
