| If there is a Minimal buy ammount in a shop, I suggest a new button:
"I'm ready to pay the minimum buy ammount of the shop, even if my order doesn't
reach it."

Keep it simple, no special buttons. Some bulk stores has so high minimum order,
that bypassing that too easily leads for trouble.

| If we exclude the free shipping from your terms, then I would have no idea how
much shipping would have been for said order or any order over 13oz.
It's not about being fair or not, but about estimating the cost before the
order is placed.
| Yes, but don't most sellers have a chart and terms that reflects what the
price will be? For mine it doesn't matter if you live in the same town,
I charge the same thing as I would charge any Domestic Customer,etc. Based on
my experience buying on BL, my rates are very fair.

that it was zone 5.
The difference was only about $1.50, but that amount could add up fast when you've

It would be a lot more on a 50-60 pound order too

| Instead of more sarcastic remarks towards those of us trying to make the site
better, I hope you can understand why things are where they are at *now* and

I hope this is not taken as a sarcastic remark, but IMO the new images that are
being uploaded are worse than the old "low res" images. You print them out in
an inventory or in an order, and there is this blob of color on the page. You
have to look very closely to see the studs and other features.
As far as the large images go, these should be photographs of actual parts, not
renders. Renders at large sizes make the site look sterile, and are pretty useless
at determining things like variants or color authenticity.
But the big issue I have is with large images being reduced and used as small
images. The original "low res" images that Troy submitted had EDGE LINES so they
looked like parts in Lego instructions, and they were easily identifiable at
a small size. If the edge lines have an appropriate thickness when the image
is large, they will be too thin when the image is made smaller. That's why
rendering programs have a way of adjusting the line thickness, so that instructions
can be drawn to different scales.
It is heartbreaking to see what this development team is doing to BrickLink.
Almost every move they make ends up cheapening the experience. Whether it's
the bland images, the pencil-thin fonts, or the twisted non-intuitive UI -
it's like a really bad bathroom/kitchen remodel, where the house is actually
worth less after the work is finished.

| Hello,
It would be easier if you could filter on more than 1 country at the same time.
ex. Europe and then France and Germany together.
For people who have little orders, it would be great if they could filter (up/down)
for the sellers who have a minimum quota.

| Reference thread: http://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=995948
SUGGESTION: Display items in stores in the exact order they were added, per
Lot ID Number when viewing by DATE ADDED.
Items listed for sale in shops are now appearing in mixed up random order when
viewed by NEWEST ITEMS.
I dislike this. When I list items, often I list them in a specific order on
purpose. And I wish for them to remain in that order. For example, if I list
all 2 x 4 bricks together, I want them to show up in that order.
The biggest reason why listed items should stay in order is to check for errors.
If a seller uploads a bunch of stuff but they appear in their shop all mixed
up, it makes it difficult to compare (to the original listing file) and trace
possible errors.
Until the site update, listed items always appeared in the order in which they
were listed, as the lot ID numbers were kept in order. I see no reason for the
now random ordering. Please correct this.
Also, I really miss the _horizontal divider line_ between each day's batch
of items. We always had that before and I see no reason to have removed that.
Please put back the horizontal divider line when viewing by NEWEST ITEMS.
Thanks.

As others have indicated, the features you are suggesting already exist.

ALL ITEMS search. I wish like hell I could turn OFF the ALL ITEMS search PERMANENTLY.

Another way is to go to My Store, choose My Inventory, On the right side of
the page are all sorts of options to see what you have in your inventory. Click
on "More Options" and about half way down the page is a box that says Parts from
Set # , Key in the set # you are interested in and hit GO and it will show you
all the parts you have for that set in your inventory.

Items in carts aren't reserved until the actual checkout is done.
You could just checkout with a message you would like to add to your order.

Yes, same problem with quotes; one part sells and the whole quote gets wiped.
I think the solution Paul is looking for it to be able to "split" an order so
the 1st 1kg order can be checked, out, paid for and shipped leaving the remaining
parts in a new order that can be added to later.
As a buyer I can see the benefit of that and as a seller I can also see that
it would encourage customer loyalty so no bad thing. I would, as a seller, like
to be able to approve (or not) use of such a feature on an individual order or
buyer basis however as well as turn it off if I was planning to go on holiday
and close the store for example.
Alternatively, yes just ask the seller if the whole order can be left open works
as long as you don't need some of the parts more quickly. Again, I would
like the option to set order open duration by order or customer or again limit
it if I was planning to close.

for me to (add to cart) again thus saving postage.
At the present time if my cart is too much I have to remove Items I actually
want, complete checkout and then find the parts again later. Finding and adding
parts can be time consuming.

Items in carts aren't reserved until the actual checkout is done.
You could just checkout with a message you would like to add to your order.
|
Yes, same problem with quotes; one part sells and the whole quote gets wiped.
I think the solution Paul is looking for it to be able to "split" an order so
the 1st 1kg order can be checked, out, paid for and shipped leaving the remaining
parts in a new order that can be added to later.
As a buyer I can see the benefit of that and as a seller I can also see that
it would encourage customer loyalty so no bad thing. I would, as a seller, like
to be able to approve (or not) use of such a feature on an individual order or
buyer basis however as well as turn it off if I was planning to go on holiday
and close the store for example.
Alternatively, yes just ask the seller if the whole order can be left open works
as long as you don't need some of the parts more quickly. Again, I would
like the option to set order open duration by order or customer or again limit
it if I was planning to close.

Just an option in the cart to (save for later) individual pieces. I would check
out but leave remaining items im not ready to buy yet in the cart. Without having
to delete them, find them again in the shop, and then add to cart again.
|
OK, that ought to be simple, store would not even know. Only problem then is
that the parts would likely just sell to another buyer before you returned to
store.
Robert

That is no different to putting them in a cart and leaving them, which you can
do right now.
Quite a few online stores have "save for later", including amazon. This is essentially
the same thing.

I can see that might be useful in some cases, so long as sellers say what the
cart can weigh (as opposed to what a package can weigh).

NO...
Old feedbacks, including negatives and neutrals, can give you an idea on who
your dealing with and tell buyers whether there is 'pattern' when something
goes wrong.
If BL would purge those negatives and neutrals, then they would need to do that
for all sellers, do you really want that ? (showing 1 example in the screenshot
below, I could give a couple of dozens like that)?
You seem to be bothered by the few negatives you carry? Why? You've had near
4000 transactions, with 3 negatives, that's less then 1 per 1300 transactions,
neglectible
And I doubt buyers will hold it against you when they need to determine whether
or not they wanna buy from you...
|
This is a good point, and the negatives that these buyers leave will also say
worlds about them.
I just received my first negative after 13 years! For not falsifying customs
forms (of which the buyer did not request I do) and that the shipping was too
high (of which they knew about before paying) - ridiculous, but this also serves
as a warning to anyone looking at that buyers feedback that they've left
- that they have ridiculous expectations and maybe you don't want to work
with them.
It's good for both parties in that respect.
In regards to old feedback - agreed. If I see feedback from a year ago that is
negative but lots of positives, I don't worry about it. I hope that the feedback
was used as a corrective and now that problem won't exist at all - if it
ever did. Plus, we are all human, get sick, have issues that we can't control,
and most buyers understand that.

People who ask you to commit felony customs fraud should be banned and have their
ability to leave a negative for that order removed. It's been far too long
since this was first suggested for nothing to be done about it.
|
Yes, I agree.
I wrote to this customer, asking them to reconsider considering this was their
2nd order and they had no issues with it. They responded saying my postage was
ridiculous (of which they could have asked to cancel the order if they had a
problem with it - they did not have to PAY IT), and then said, "My feedback is
staying thank you and you probably break the law on a daily basis."
BlockityBlockBlock by me for that one.
