I have been doing a massive switch from one type of storage to another, doing
inventory in the process. I was missing about a fifth to a quarter of my stock.
I never saw anything weird during the great BrickLink hack of 2023. I changed
my password etc. it's bizarre though, entire lots missing, thousands of pieces.

this happens to me too much. Always happens in groups, like they backed up our
inventory from an old database.

Recently, BL sold a torso I never had listed. I thought perhaps I had imputed
it accidentally, apologized to the customer, and made sure I did not have any
more in my inventory. This was some odd/rare torso in a non existent color.

a few days later, bl sells it AGAIN. Same song and dance.

It sold yet a third time.

The orders were not cancelled, just given credit for the "missing" part,
so I have no idea how it kept getting put back in my inventory and selling over
and over when it was never in my inventory to begin with.

I've had this happen about 1-2 times a year but always figured I was at fault
even though it didn't seem that way, after the whole recent fiasco I don't
think its me.

For both items shown, the bulk quantity should be x4

The buyer completed the purchase correctly, but BL screwed up the display for
the bulk of the second item. I have never seen this error before now.

My second BL glitch in 48 hours. The other one was an order item that my records

I know it's an error listing because the Retain Lots was NOT enabled and
pretty much 100 percent of my inventory items have Retain Lots turned ON.

Haha yes!

I'm actually more shocked these days when I can't remove a stain, between
acetone, alcohol and H2O2 and the fabulous magic eraser (do not use on lego though,
I've learned the hard way you can see the scratches)

The disinfectant wipes, doesn't have to be lysol, work. They also take the
stickiness off if removing stickers. Or hand sanitizer (alcohol?).

While I'm sure your answer was covered by the others...

#1 There is a reason BL has the review section when you post new items. Its
good to review it before you blindly click. I've caught a few fat finger
typings during my listings.

#2 If you use the radio button for sales options be sure you ABSOLUTELY know
what your doing before hand and After you are done with the sale and review your
items again.

#3 Its always good to review your stuff every few months. Just to be sure.

Outside of that some have claimed over the years we have gremlins. While I know
these Gremlins exist, in all my time here I have never seen something magically
change until it was something I did via 1-3 listed above.

Cheers

Gremlins were, but not with the prices, but with the number of items, with onsite
payments, more items were returned to the warehouse than there actually were.
If the system evaluated these onsite payments as not executed, the items from
the warehouse were not written off, but the order in the deposit was then added
to them, so when someone then bought items to zero, I had 2x more than the actual
amount after such an unexecuted order. It happened to me with several orders
and quite large ones, when my warehouse suddenly grew by several thousand items
without me doing anything. But that was 2 years ago and luckily I haven't
registered anything like that since then.

I do know that qt# are one of those Gremlins but with my Store being small I
caught the few times it happened or before the order got processed to deal
with it. While I have NO way to prove it. I suspected a few years ago it was
tied to the Tier Pricing. almost like each tier could have been adding to the
inventory. When I worked the math it didn't make sense so I didn't bother
digging further and just always redid inventory checks every few months against
a previous qt count of the higher bulky items.

As the others said, there's no built-in way to check, but that's one
of the things BrickStore is excellent for - just one click to backup your stock;
do it regularly, and you have offline copies of everything to verify in case
of problems!
Anyway, don't fret too much, I don't think there's anybody here who
never had problems to learn from, welcome and enjoy your time on Bricklink!

First thing: buy from another seller to get positive feedback (all feedback is
transactional on BrickLink). Once you have a positive feedback you can convert
your account to a seller account.

Then you'll be asked to submit documents for verif

cation.

Hello thank you for letting me know that.I'll have a look

If the seller entered it, it would be on the order detail page. It might also
be in the "drive-thru" email if the seller sent one.

It sounds like you may have just entered the wrong price, I once bought a minifigure
for 15p and the seller messaged me saying they meant to put £15 and cancelled
the sale because they messed up.
