File a paypal complaint if the seller remains unresponsive.

  I have placed an order on a store and he hasn't shipped in 3 weeks and hasn't
replied so I've logged a NSS, seller says he's refunded me but I haven't
received anything. (STRIPE PAYMENT). Am wondering how long I should wait for
the refund. (Refund initiated on 8th April)

Do not remove the NSS until you have Proof that the seller has refunded your
money and you have you have received your money back.

Seller is now suspended with Preventive action lol, not sure whether to just
sit here and wait or try and figure out what to do... it's a 3k order so
I'm pretty worried rn🥲

If the seller has been suspended, it probably means there have been several similar
complaints. You almost certainly will not hear back from the seller or get a
refund. You should be working with your bank immediately to get a reversal of
the charges. Was this an experienced seller with good feedback? I assume seller
did not offer paypal for payment. For a valuable order, I would not have recommended
using a payment method that did not give buyer protection.

My storage closet runneth over, looking to move some bulk out. I've been
busier at my day job and I don't seem to be finding time to get this sorted.

  Can you also implement this search query in the Wanted List?

  Hi,

I am trying to complete my old Lego sets that are mostly from the 1980s, and
created several wanted lists (1 per set) in order to buy the missing parts.


Question:
How can I be sure that I am buying the (era)correct part?

Example: set "6951 Robot Command Center" from 1984 is missing 1x "Brick,
Round 2 x 2 with Axle Hole" = part 3941 in White.
However, the new part has a 'bottom ring' visible and the original parts
did not have that
(https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=3941&C=1#T=C&C=1).

So when using the 'buy all' option or selection all wanted lists that
I want to buy parts for, how do I know I get the correct part and not the newer
version?

Or has this option fully disappeared from Bricklink now?
In that case: what parts-buying site does still make the distinction between
versions of a part?


Many thanks for your help.
Kind regards,
Menno


All, thank you for your helpful replies!

  Und genau das ist das, was einen richtigen Katalog ausmacht.

  For a few weeks now you have to clarify with the seller whether it is the part
you want. So you can no longer use these functions.

That difference never was recognized in the catalogue by different entries, only
by a note as it is now.
You ALLWAYS had to clarify with the seller for such variants.


Then this entry is missing in the catalog.

Not really. There are loads of minor or unimportant variations that have never
been individually catalogued, just mentioned in notes.




Thank you all for the helpful comments.

I was under the impression that as there is a clear photo of the four different
variations AND there are an equal number of different Item Numbers, they should
be (have been) easy distinguishable...
Also, visually they are different - try to combine original era ones with new
ones and see how (awful) it looks.

Again, all thanks for your replies!
Kind regards,
Menno
