Due to the political situation I would like to put a stop to some countries.

Kind regards,

I thouhgt that in the past there was a list where you could simply select to
which continents and which countries you would like to ship, but that option
seems to be gone.

Yes, that far more easier way is gone. Already several years ago, I never understood
why they changed this into a far more complicated way. Maybe due to the use of
shipping methods but I think a good programming together with the old fashion
way of selecting country’s should work too.

Probaly it has to do with the logic of the shipping methods yes. But at least
you can clink the link on the right of the map to check which shipping methods
you need to edit:

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/shipping.page:
I ship to 218 countries (100% of buyers).

In your Shipping Method(s), scroll down to the 'Destination & Base Rate'
section.
Then click on the actual Zone name to bring up the list of countries.
See attached pic.

Sorry if this is political, I'm not posting specifically to voice my political
preference or opinion as I know that's not what this forum is for... but
as for the sanctions topic and whether those are relevant: I don't believe
this has any desired effect in any way form or shape even if I grant that the
entire Russian population would be unanimously cut off from all international
ecommerce. I think:

- It's in Russian nature to accept ever new levels of daily problems as just
hardships of life - a "high pain threshold" to sanctions as it's sometimes
called;
- This proves those in power right saying Russians don't have any friends
beyond the borders;
- This increases the grasp of those in power as they seem to want the population
to be fully dependent on the domestic world and not be exposed to contacts that
lead to international comparison. They don't even need Western sanctions
to cut people off from LinkedIn etc;
- Even if this would lead to a bottom-up protest, which is the goal of such sanctions,
Russia is, well, let's say not a country where initiative arises through
a bottom-up kind of mechanic.

I think the main effect that is that Russian people have less Lego to play with...
But that's just my 2 kopeck.

For me it's not about sanctioning Russian AFOLS, but because shipping will
be a lot harder now, I want to avoid problems.

I share your view indeed. I have sanctioned Putin and Russia since the first
day of its invasion.

Plus, the difficulty in shipping is practical, a thing I didn't think of
earlier.

I am Russian and now live in Moscow.

I am in shock, just like the whole world, from what our government is doing ...
None of us, ordinary residents of Russia, want this.
Yesterday evening I was at a rally in support of Ukraine in the center of Moscow
to support peace. But it was dangerous for me personally because of how our government
reacts to such rallies. The biggest problem is that even if everyone takes to
the streets (and many are afraid, there is something to lose) it will not change
anything, because all the power is now in the hands of the authorities and we
will not be allowed to change anything.

Know. We don't want what's happening.
Unfortunately, many of the sanctions that come in response to our authorities
are hitting us, ordinary citizens. People have low wages. People can't go
on holiday. People face judgment for not choosing.

Personally, I just hope I can keep working (rather than having to close the store
for whatever reason), get into Lego, and spend time with family and friends.

I love you all.

The Russian Lego market offers good conditions for this to become a favorite
hobby, as well as for opening a store on Bricklink. The size of the RU community
(sellers and buyers) is definitely growing. Now some countries have banned Russian
planes from flying over their territory (such as Poland, the Czech Republic).
This will lead to longer delivery times in these countries, I think.

Playing Lego and political games should not overlap on this platform. I ask all
sellers and buyers to have equanimity and professionalism!

And yes, Russians have a «high pain threshold», as you put it.

So, since you say nothing about the war started by Russia, your only concern
is your Lego?
