Thank you! When I went to that page, it was already enabled, but so was this
one, which I'm sure was the issue.

I'm hoping another seller that has faced this issue can point me in the right
direction. I have a buyer seeing "the seller can't ship to you with
any of the shipping methods available" (first image). I asked another seller
to see if they could get to checkout and it worked fine (second image). My
shipping method for Hold/Manual Invoice does not have any geographic restrictions
(third/fourth/fifth image).

So I'm stumped why this buyer is getting this message. Any suggestions?

Since I'll be pulling from that bin tonight I'll physically add the dimensions
for all the sheets, but I thought they were there back when I first started selling.


Sticker sheet packing dimensions have only been added since packing dimensions
for all items types were added to the database about three years ago. There are
still a _lot_ of sticker sheets that do not have packing dimensions, so any that
are missing would be appreciated.

Cheers,

Don’t know anything of the variations in boxed form for that era, interesting
to hear what you’ve found.

No idea if it’s original.

Hi

Yes it is the brick in the lower left corner. So it was a clearing of old stock?
And stock of old and newer times have been mixed, since the set also contained
the later version of the 2x4. (bho4).

I’ve decided to retire and downsize so need to clear my Lego stocks.
Because of recent bad experiences with posting overseas, I will only be posting
to UK addresses.

I'm sure they do. Just like us, VAT sellers. […]

I think Peregrinator meant that BL subcontracted the whole tax rigmarole to a
partner.

I’m not sure how it works, to which level the partner handles things, if it’s
just some kind of API (checks address and says “that’s so much (% or amount),
it’s VAT/Sales tax, that should go to tax service X…”) or if they also collect
and remitt the taxes for BL.

It is and unlisted version like mine.

I asked the question about ghost slots because they can be seen on other bricks
but not these so far.

Another image, top of the grey bricks in other photo.

The 2 x 4 is an unlisted variation, it’s a bslot04 of some sort with the added
hollow studs.

I believe it to be the transition to the normal hollow stud hollow bricks from
the original slotted bricks.

Does it have ghost slots at the ends or even on the sides, slot lines still visible
but filled with plastic ?

I believe I also have these with Lego logo on the studs and underneath on the
same bricks.




Thank you for ther identification of the bslot vricks. No, the 2x4 do not have
a ghost slot. There are inly two of them in the set, the other ones are the bhol04
type.

No, the seller never touches the tax money, during the payment it gets sent to
bricklink right away.
All the seller needs to do is print out the tax receipt on the order and put
it on the package and digitally include the tax number bricklink providers when
they buy the shipping label. If they do those 2 things (just like they have to
do to many other countries) you won’t get double charged (aside from rare accidents)

I doubt BrickLink ever touches the money

I'm sure they do. Just like us, VAT sellers.

You receive the money (by PayPal/Stripe on a specific account or with a specific
description "Partner thingy", then BL declare and pays the amount owed
maybe every 3 months, to each Country or to their Country which splits (like
how OSS works).

In short, I don't think possible BL pays say 30 cents for a small order to
say Norway, but instead every 3 months will send a SEPA payment of ex. 10,000€.

I doubt BrickLink ever touches the money, I think whatever 3rd party vendor they
use collects it and remits it. Still, that doesn't change that BL is probably
responsible for refunding if VAT is charged 2x. I say "probably" as I
don't know if there's anything specific to Norway as opposed to EU.

  Hi,

the thread you linked was from 2021. Rules have changed since then, and by end
of 2023, BL figured out a solution. And I was greatfull and started ordering
from abroad again.
It worked exactly once for me.

Now, it failed.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find any information about what to do in such case.

I understood that BL is collecting norwegian VAT, therefore I personally find
it logically that BL should be responsible if something went wrong here.

Or is it that the seller gets the money, including norwegian VAT, and BL charges
him afterwards? In that case, I am maybe totally wrong and beg for pardon. But
this is something that you, as a seller, have to tell me.

However, it should be neither be mandatory for the seller to print out the propper
custom forms before beeing able to proceed to the next step (e.g. setting orderstatus
to packed), or possible for the buyer to choose between VAT beeing collected
during check-out or by local postal service.

Paying twice means 50% taxes + postals fees. This is, by no means, a good solution
(except for your tax-office).

Sending mail to each seller before ordering could be some sort of life-hack here,
but still is not the intention of the newly implemented feature, I guess.


So I like to specifie my question. Who is responsible (hwo got the money?), Seller
or BL?


BTW: There is no doubt for me that the seller did not provide propper documents.
But BL is the Marketplace that offers the service. In a similar case, it was
a well known online auction platform the refounded VAT to me, since seller did
not provide propper VOEC documents.

I and many others here, have experience the "Double VAT" transaction
episode, both as seller and buyer. You are not unique nor somehow special in
this matter. So...

answer the question: did you get the response needed from BL, that lead you to
reengage in transacting abroad?

Come-on guys...

Name one thing that's currently moving down, not up in price? It's a
moment to make some adjustments in expectations, in order to better move forward
within the game we're all playing.

Or maybe wait for those posts announcing price reductions (excluding sales
events of course)

No matter, opportunity lies everywhere and in all directions

I know the number for the left one but it was NOT included in the set.

The reason? Perhaps to save some costs leaving out the support on inner sides?

  Hi,

I just ordered from abroad to Norway. Today the packege arrived and I had to
pay VAT again. In addition there have been fees by norwegian postal service.

To state it clear, I was forced by Bricklink to pay norwegian VAT already at
order check-out.

So I had to pay VAT twice and some duty fees in addition. Can't find Information
at the BL Help page regarding VAT-refound. Since BL is collecting, I guess its
also BL that haver to make refounds?

The package has "old days" CN22 custom declaration, but no VOEC documents,
so I guess postal service did everythimg right, but seller missed to add correct
documents.

Anyhow, collecting VAT is a great service that make buying at BL easier, but
it MUST be reliable!

Can please someone figure out what to do in order to get VAT refounded?

If you need any additional information or proof, do not hesitate to ask. I'll
keep recipt as well as shipping-box.

Best regards.

I take it that your offer to help @ BL Team with “Norwegian regulations”
specific to this matter, was positively met...

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1278918

As you're now ordering from abroad?

“I stopped ordering anything via BL two weeks ago, was hoping for more clarification
and a working system specially on the EU/EØS VAT implementation” Wherein
you seemed apprised of “unique regulations in Norway regarding the IOSS System,
also a so called VOEC regulation”

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1274893

Hopefully you'll get an admin with some help or clarification.

Now I might be wrong (and please correct me if I am) but for a small section
it is actually going down...

2nd class large letter 100-250g currently £2.40, will change to £2.10
2nd class large letter 250-500g currently 2.70, will change to £2.50

I hope I understood that part correctly at least

Unless you’re talking about using an LDD/LXF file with that dolphin.  That would
mean you need LDD to make that file first.

And then:
1. I still don’t see how LeoCAD could import it if there’s no LDraw file for
it on your system first.
2. Studio can also import LDD files and has some of Digital Bricks’ files to
do that even when the parts aren’t in its Main palette (but not that dolphin).


Sounds like a mathematician’s solution:

Problem 1: You a match, a pot.  How do you make boiled water?
Solution 1: You find wood.  You arrange the wood to make a fire.  You light it. 
You find a source of water.  You fill the pot with water.  You put the pot on
the fire.  You wait.

Problem 2: You have a fire, a match, a pot full of water.  How do you make boiled
water?
Solution 2: You empty the pot on the fire.  You’re now in the same situtation
as problem 1.

I imagine the reason for less mail is that people don't need it these days.
Email is instant (almost) and free (almost) and much more convenient. Even if
they kept the price of a stamp the same, or reduced it, I doubt that many
people would go back to sending letters in anything like the volumes they did
20 years ago.

Parcels is where the business is these days, which is why RM need to remain competitive
with the couriers, both for price and service.

The universal service imposed on the RM, delivering to people in remote areas
for the same cost, is also to blame.

He's very good people and he may help you a bit on this, especially if he

There is Norway

Sorry for the joke.
I don't think it can be refunded.

It's not BrickLink fault, it's either the seller who didn't transmitted
the proper info, or your Taxes who didn't account them

I'd ask to your local taxes/customs/posts.

Otherwise, very sorry, but IMHO rule n°1 is NEVER pay twice, simply refuse the
parcel and let the seller or PayPal manage this.

I mean; until BrickLink does what it's supposed to do in this case (refund)
but there would be conditions also, etc. And for now I've not read they would
do.

Hi,

First, the usual note: the dedicated forum for Studio and PartDesigner
is https://forum.bricklink.com/ (hover over the red Studio icon on every page,
then click “Studio Forum”).

Please search the forum for your question before posting a new one (the search
box is in the very dark grey banner).
There’s indexes of known bugs and suggestions that you can browse first:
Studio: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=5579
PartDesigner: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=5589

There’s a subforum, aptly named “Studio Parts,” to ask for parts: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewforum.php?f=6
And there’s a nice “I can’t find this part” FAQ https://forum.bricklink.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6368


Then, there’s a 3D model on digital-bricks.de, a raw conversion from LDD,
plain/no decor.  You can import it in Studio through PartDesigner.
(And it even doesn’t look as bad as LDD models generally look )


Or open it in LeoCAD or mecabricks, save as .obj, and import this is Part Designer,
it'll make a Custom part - IIRC, didn't do this for a few months

Prices for letters up again in April.

Justification : costs and less mail.

My guess is that part of the reason for less mail is, you guessed it, the fact
that the price keeps going up.

Hi,

I just ordered from abroad to Norway. Today the packege arrived and I had to
pay VAT again. In addition there have been fees by norwegian postal service.

To state it clear, I was forced by Bricklink to pay norwegian VAT already at
order check-out.

So I had to pay VAT twice and some duty fees in addition. Can't find Information
at the BL Help page regarding VAT-refound. Since BL is collecting, I guess its
also BL that haver to make refounds?

The package has "old days" CN22 custom declaration, but no VOEC documents,
so I guess postal service did everythimg right, but seller missed to add correct
documents.

Anyhow, collecting VAT is a great service that make buying at BL easier, but
it MUST be reliable!

Can please someone figure out what to do in order to get VAT refounded?

If you need any additional information or proof, do not hesitate to ask. I'll
keep recipt as well as shipping-box.

Best regards.

My store godt suspended last week with only two NSS. The only two I ever have

No response from admin.
Just normal ?
Anyone else who has tried the same?

Scary stuff, could happen to any one of us. Rotten buyers are the worst.

It really couldn't. I ship my orders promptly and can demonstrate that I
have.

Good strategy.

  Same goes for the hundred or so different sellers I've bought from
in my time here, whether new stores with single-digit feedback or established
ones with 10k+.

Some times people will just do dumb things to be cruel.

Even though you did nothing wrong, eg.package was destroyed in transit.

Since these can be seen as "different" languages due to different spellings

"Same Books in Different Languages" relationship.

TLC is hyperconcerned about its public image, so since TLC now owns Bricklink
you'd think they would do something to change that.

I'd say it may much depend the question also?

Like "I'd like my Wanted Lists to be sorted by Color then Qty" may
not be on their priority to reply to...

At the contrary, if it's something vital for your Shop, often (always?) Russell
reads the forum and quickly unlocks such problems.


This said - I agree I don't know why we don't have a 24/48 hrs and 24/365
Help reply (even with a canned message) on this site...

But there's also the fact we'd need a Notification system, because Message
may NOT be seen, and e-mails may NOT arrive. So that needs a completely new communication
system. Hum.

I've been waiting for over 2 months now, but nothing happens.

The big problem with the new helpdesk is that you don't get any confirmation
of receipt by email. There is no ticket number. You can't upload any documents.

It seems as if everyone has gone underground. Is there still a Bricklink admin
who takes care of the requests?

I'm in the same situation. No ticket, no confirmation...

TLC is hyperconcerned about its public image, so since TLC now owns Bricklink
you'd think they would do something to change that.

Anyone else using Brickpacker to sync between BrickOwl and Bricklink who have
had an issue the last 2 days? I have reached out to Brickpacker but haven't
received a response. I made sure the API Key is correct, and it is.

Refund from the Order page.

Then edit the order and set it to "Not Paid".

Then only you can cancel it.

  Hello everyone!

A customer just asked me for a full refund of his order because I didn't
have the Dark Azure piece Plate, Round 1 x 1, although I don't think it exists

Anyway, I'm doing the refund, I should not have made a mistake... But I don't
know how to delete the order that's still in paid status and that I should
therefore ship !!!

How do you do it?

thank you for your help.

Well it's a month too early for April Fools.

I know there were quite a few reports of this happening but the rare ones are
printed single sided only.

At the very beginning, I was worried seeing that there was 2 versions of this
part, the hozizontal and vertical grill ones, and BrickLink showing only one

I just checked and there is a menu option in the wanted list 'list' that
says newest. Click on this and you can choose from a couple of different options
including alphabetical.

Thanks, I saw that, but can I have it default set to Alphabetical. Now everytime
I open the wanted lists list it is set to Newest.

Hello my fellow Lego collectors and builders,

After many years, I was able to start up a small lego store here and in just
a few months, it has exceeded my expectations. I'm very happy for what I
have accomplished so far. I just reached 50,000 pieces in my inventory and excited
to increase it to 60,000 hopefully this month. I am continuing my storewide
sale of 20% off all items.

Have a great weekend and I hope you Build something Amazing. Take care and have
fun!!!!

Current Price average by qnty

First of all I ve figured out that my prices was around 15% higher than on the
market, idk why but I have fixed it, now I should understand when I am uploading
parts to bricklink, which of this choices should I choose. Which is normal price
for parts?

Thanks!

Your Marble Bricks

Its never good to price to 6 month average.

Take instructions for example. Quantity sold per year is minuscule in comparison
to available for sale. That one which did sell was probably tacked on to another
order which already had shipping covered. So, actual price of the book was less
significant. If you sell them for a penny, or a few dollars your sales will
probably be the same.

Consider basic bricks. The average price includes bulk buys between people wanting
a lot of that item and the sellers with a lot on hand. Those people get a low
price for the simplicity of 100 qty increments. You have 6 of that item and
your buyer is considering 3 for a MOC. They know they can get it cheaper if
they bought 100 but that other seller has a huge minimum order. A few pennies
per unit extra you charge isn’t significant.

There are other segments to consider. Minifigs sell differently. Unusual colours
and items.

[Very much enjoyed my visits to Riga, particularly the KGB museum. Hope all
is going well].

Hi Patrick,

In the past this has caused issues where the patterns are not exactly mirror
images but have been added anyway.

It also doesn't look good on images where the logo on the studs are obviously
reversed.

Having said that in this case the stickers are an exact mirror image and the
logos are quite small in the image so not that noticeable.

So yes if it means getting it into the catalog then yes please go ahead and submit
it.

Thanks,
Paul.

Thank you, done!

As far as I know you have to add it manually.
Not a fun job, I usually just change the quantity wanted, or if I already have
the total wanted I remove the item from the wanted list.

“My Collection” isn’t linked to anything.  (Well, except Studio: the parts section
can be used as a palette.)


You can use the “Apply Order” button to automatically change the Have fields
in a Wanted List with an order (open your Wanted List to see its items, the button
is on the top right)…
… but it has no memory: you can apply the same order multiple times and if you
have multiple WLs, it starts ‘full’ for each one / it doesn’t remember what was
‘used’ in one WL when you apply the same order to another one.


Sadly, we need to use third-party tools, like BrickStore (application) or Rebrickable
(website), to manage our own inventories.

Hallo Allemaal,

Ik ga voorlopig stoppen met mijn Bricklink store wegens veranderende privé omstandigheden.
Hierbij bied ik mijn store ter overname aan. Bij interesse neem gerust contact
met me op.

Het betreft de gehele store inclusief alle ladekastjes (101 in totaal) etc.
maar minus de sets

Waarde store volgens BrickStore (Last 6 months sale price average) = €22.250,-

Ik zou zeggen doe me een goed bod / kom een keer kijken in Zevenaar

Groeten René

I just checked
 
Part No: 98133pb01  Name: Minifigure, Headgear Ninjago Wrap with Gold 3 Point Emblem Pattern
* 
98133pb01 Minifigure, Headgear Ninjago Wrap with Gold 3 Point Emblem Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear
in White and Red and they both have the LEGO logo and number in
micro printing around the inside of the stud.

Thanks i Will send a refund to my customer

I will check at work tomorrow, but I am fairly sure that these were initially
produced without LEGO logo and number. I know that this is the case for other
Ninjago headgears. Also some of them were initially produced in another plastic
quality, and looks and feels differently.

You most likely have sent a genuine LEGO part.

Helge

For the 30177 wrap, LEGO changed at some point from a material called ABS/PA
to a material called HV-ABS. They also changed the mould at the same time (or
around the same time) and the earlier does not have logo or number. When you
compare the old and the new wraps, the old looks dull and "fake" compared
to the new ones. I think this change were done around 2012-13 if I recall correctly.
I am not sure if it is the same with the 98133, but I think that is very likely,
and I think I have more data on it at work. Send me a message if I forget to
check tomorrow.

Helge

I have checked the 98133 that I have, and all have the logo and number, though
in very small print. These were produced from 2012; I think that at least some
of wraps that I checked were from early productions, so I think that they probably
have had the logo and number all along. I have not found any other information
that indicate that these were ever produced without logo and number, but it is
of course possible.

Hello everyone!

A customer just asked me for a full refund of his order because I didn't
have the Dark Azure piece Plate, Round 1 x 1, although I don't think it exists

Anyway, I'm doing the refund, I should not have made a mistake... But I don't
know how to delete the order that's still in paid status and that I should
therefore ship !!!

How do you do it?

thank you for your help.

Anne

Hey all,
Does anybody know this part, is it Lego? And if so, what does it do?
There's no logo inside the stud; dimensions are 3x3 studs.
Thanks!
Patrick

Hi all,
I just added two stickered parts for
 
Set No: 76087  Name: Flying Fox: Batmobile Airlift Attack

76087-1 (Inv) Flying Fox: Batmobile Airlift Attack
926 Parts, 6 Minifigures, 2017
Sets: Super Heroes: Justice League
to the catalogue - 45301pb056L and R. Unfortunately I have only one of them,

Cheers,

Well it's a month too early for April Fools.

printed single sided only.

Original series or the new one?

The first picture is from GBC Germany.
I don't know where I got the files from for it, but they are a few years
old and the website hasn't been updated in a while.
It's about 20,000ish pieces.


The second picture is a version I did.
It's about 2,860 pieces.

There are a few different versions available on the web.

That way we won't have to send a bunch of pictures to people, with whom we
want to trade etc.

You can download your wantlists and send the file.

How do I do that? I cannot seems to figure it out.

Click on said wanted list then choose download

  Hi
My store godt suspended last week with only two NSS. The only two I ever have
had. Is down to one now and this is only because off a buyer who wants two be
the big boss after he got a refund.
No response from admin.
Just normal ?
Anyone else who has tried the same?

Scary stuff, could happen to any one of us. Rotten buyers are the worst.

It really couldn't. I ship my orders promptly and can demonstrate that I
have. Same goes for the hundred or so different sellers I've bought from
in my time here, whether new stores with single-digit feedback or established
ones with 10k+.

Refund your buyers and show customer service the proof, that is the quickest
way to remove the NSS and have your store back up.

First of all I ve figured out that my prices was around 15% higher than on the
market, idk why but I have fixed it, now I should understand when I am uploading
parts to bricklink, which of this choices should I choose. Which is normal price
for parts?

Thanks!

Your Marble Bricks

One more question, not related to price guide, does Black Pearl parts sells fasts?
Like this big black pieces which costs around 50 euros per piece, or it will
be waste of money and time to buy black pearl (have deal for 200 euros new, without
minifigs)


Rare and expensive parts are slow movers for me but they do move, you just have
to wait for the right buyer. Anyway, I priced my parts nearer to the sold average,
but I've raised before that the 6-month average seem to include sales from
earlier months.

Hello, this is my first time posting to the inventories forum. I recently purchased
a used, incomplete copy of 7317 online (not Bricklink). This set is known for
having a revision where 4 of the instances of part 30585a were replaced with
part 30585b, with the longer connection point for the pneumatic tubes. The revision
also replaces a 2x4 brick with 2 2x2 inverted slopes.

The copy I purchased reflected this revision-- however, all 13 of
the tube joiners were the longer 30585b variant. As this "parts lot"
additionally included a complete 7314 the seller wasn't aware of, with the
rubber bands still in their original bag, as well as the instructions and box
for 7317, I'm inclined to believe this is a genuine variant from an extremely
casual, not very knowledgeable fan and clearly not someone who went to Bricklink
just to buy 9 more of the 30585b variant to swap in to the set for some reason.
I was wondering if anyone else had noticed the same with their copy, though I
understand given this was a used copy it may not meet Bricklink's requirements
to be cataloged as a third version of the set.

There are a lot of MOCs of it online. If you're able to find the instructions
and/or part lists for one you like (you might have to ask the creators if they
have these things), you can come back to BL and add the parts to a wanted list,
which will then let you buy everything you need in a pretty easy, convenient
manner. Just know that the higher the piece count, the more you'll be spending
on shipping since you'll probably have to buy from multiple sellers.
