Bricklink webpage should support mobile phones, what I don't understand is
why they didn't make stud.io an app, so you could browse MOC instruction
in your mobile or tablet.

Notifications are send for available l new listed parts or when parts become

It doesn't notify when you list new items in a Stockroom.

| Hi,
Over the years, I recall quite a few buyers for whom I had reserved lots asking
me how to see and order these lots.
When you go to a store, three tabs are displayed: "Shop", "Terms" and "Feedback".
Under the "Shop" tab are the following links/sub menus:
Featured All Items Newest Items Wanted List
I think it would be very helpful for a buyer if a new link/sub menu called "Reserved
Lots' was added to the above. The link should perhaps only be visible
if there are reserved lots. It should also be possible for a buyer to add all
reserved lots in one click.
The documentation describes a link "Show All Items Reserved for Me" in the left
store menu. I don't recall ever seeing such a link, but I think a link right
next to "Wanted List' would be more visible and easier to explain to a user.

I just acquired a set, which was incomplete but with the original box. Seeing the models there, it is simply impossible to build them with the current BrickLink's inventory. I reconstructed what should be the minimal set to build all the models in the box. This is also evident from the photos which are uploaded in BrickLink, but I can provide new photos with the alternate models in the box, if needed.
Completing the box with all the pieces that I think should be in the inventory and a catalog of that time, the weight is 204 g, please update that as well.
|
For these very old sets, they often came with stock pictures that were not intended
to serve as instructions for what could be built with the set.
|
I Agree. They were inspirational models that were not directly related to the
set contents.
| | Before making
any changes, please check with the submitter of this inventory who is an authority
on such matters.
It is also possible that different contents came at different times and locations
for these old sets, which were little more than parts packs. Often the BL inventory
only serves as a suggestion as to what one might find.

I had several of these sets and many matched the bricks that were in each. Here
on Peeron.com it was inventoried by someone and I varied it from the sets I had
in my possession. At the same time, Lego often substituted elements when they
ran short and they did not change building instructions.

I think that the first instructions were added to some sets in 1964. Not all
the sets immediately included them. I think this set was made during the transition
period. I agree with Russell that caution is needed for sets from this time period,
and depending on box images to reconstruct the set contents could lead to errors.
PS. Note that you linked to a different set:

Model built from sealed box contents. Originally thought it was unusual to find 2 spares of this part in the same bag, so triple checked.

It probably won't happen.
It would clutter up the triplily redundant FB score, FB coloured brick and FB
brick order number in the block.
Newbies would get confused and want a different country's flag to be displayed
depending on BL's randomized optimization algorithm.

He 'claims'...

Perhaps "claims" was poor choice of words, I don't suspect anything underhanded

two days ago (It'll probably be in the mailbox when I get home  )

Wow, depending on how many coins, one might have to pay a large shipping fee
just to get the payment to the seller! Still beats the barter system: imagine
mailing a chicken.

| |
Can we get BrickLink to only accept "Cash" payments on an order if that buyer's
postal code is on a seller-selected list? I don't know how postal codes
work in other countries, but in the US (and Canada to, I think) the zip code
gets more specific as you go from left to right. So for example, using wildcard
characters, I could allow cash payments from anyone in Lincoln, NE with a single
entry: 685**.
|
Sounds complicated, as BL would need to split the 'national buyers' into
thousands of states and provinces all around the world, with the option the be
able to select 'multiple' regions in 'multiple' countries (I've
had international buyers picking up orders because they only live about 100 miles
away - I'm in a small country-)
|
I don't see it as being too complicated. I have a list on which I put selected
zip codes. If a buyer selects "Cash" and his zip code is not on the list, he
is asked to choose a different payment method. BrickLink doesn't need to
be concerned with different states/provinces etc. The onus is on me, the seller,
to set up my approved zip codes list. All BL would have to do is give me a way
to use that list to validate payment methods. And of course, the whole validation
system would be optional, no seller would have to use it.
| |
Deactivate 'Cash' if you don't want the hastle, people who wanna
pickup will usually send a mail anyway after seeing your address (and usually
that is *after* they already made the purchase), so just leave in a non instant
payment method (Paypal onsite 'only' would be a problem)

Well, Cash should have been sent registered in any case. I've had a few rare
cash payments over the years, including one from Japan and another that over-paid
by enough that I had to send change in the return package.

I accept cash when customers pick it up, but in my shop settings I only allow
Paypal payments. If people want to pay in cash at pickup, we communicate beforehand.
This way customers can't "force" a cash payment when it is not appropriate.
So I would suggest you simply remove the cash payment option in your shop, and
maybe add a little blurb that you allow cash at pickup.
Niek.
|
I used to do it that way, but if it is a local buyer (especially someone from
my LUG) I like to know how they're going to pay because I usually give a
discount, and that discount is often a bit more generous if they're paying
with cash.
|
I go further, I make no mention of cash or even local pickup as an option, but
when asked, I almost always agree to local pickup ...cash only. Why pay PayPal
their cut when you don't need to? Buyer saves on shipping. I save on PayPal
fees, win-win.
And no mysterious cash thru the mail 😁 orders

Why didn't you catch it at invoicing?

Like I said, no one had ever done this before so it wasn't even on my radar.
Of all the things I double-check before invoicing, this is one I never thought
I'd have to worry about--why would anyone risk sending cash in the mail?

No matter what type of payment a buyer selects that buyer can still mail you
cash. All you can do is return the cash if you do not want to accept it. There
is no need to ask Bricklink to check on postal codes if you ask me. I once had
a buyer send me cash. I don't even have that kind of payment as an option.
