| It came out of the inheritance of Daniel Krentz, and I have found lots of unique
items before
I expect this to be a prototype then…… he worked on the early pirate and castle
sets and I have more items that are from that era.

| As you pick an order, group all the items in small piles of 5.
When done picking, it should be super easy to count. If the final total items
picked matches the total order items, then odds are the order was picked correctly.
It's the most useful selling tip I've encountered.
This has been shared in the forum before (which is how I first learned it), but
I thought it's worthwhile to bring it up again because I see forum complaints
often like "over half of my orders on BL are wrong missing pieces"...
etc...
This usefulness will also vary depending on the types of orders you get as a
seller.
MOST of mine are all small items and less than 100pcs so this method is pretty
easy. It works for larger orders too, just need more space/larger groups or a
mix of both.
It still saves me from a short pick here and there and since using it, my error
rate has gone down considerably.

While I think you're describing something totally different than how we pick,
it is interesting to hear different ways others are doing it. We don't
ever try to match total items picked as we are double checking each lot, but
over time did find that counting by 5 is visually possible, where its hard to
tell pile of 9 vs 10 parts.
Taking another different approach is we pick onto trays lined with small white
cloth hand towels. Then are able to double
check counts, while minimizing handling of new bricks and avoiding more surface
scratching.

| Hi,
Thus far i've had two letter post orders gone missing.
One domestic: although this one felt honestly sketchy , due to the fact the buyer
did receive a update in their postal app that the letter (including picture of
it) would arrive the next day.
- i have asked this buyer to check in with their neighbours because it might
had been posted in the wrong mailbox; no avail.
- after that i've agreed with the buyer to wait for delivery for a maximum
of 2 weeks.
- on agreed upon date still no package arrived? Instant 100% refund including
shipping.
The other letter was an international order from NL to France:
Here also nicely communicated with the buyer, with the only big difference being
the waiting time was much longer due to international post can sometimes take
forever where it normally takes a week or so..
This buyer also got refunded.
After this order i've stopped international orders to take place with Letters
as their delivery method.
International postal rules state : goods/producte cant be sent with the letter
method.
This greatly increases the chance for a letter to get lost/seized/destroyed.
Alot of sellers here and elsewhere are not yet fully aware of this.
That combined with their harsh stance in their (illegal) ToS statements,
Can cause some problems for shops in the (near) future.
Aliexpress flooded this into exinstance.

It's approx 10g CO2 to make a single sheet of paper, 2g to print it, and
the addition CO2 and various due to the fuel cost to ship it, plus the cost of
disposing or even recycling it...
Also, you may even get a non positive Feedback for doing this if you fell on
an ecologist buyer

You do know connecting to internet, turning on the computer(let alone a 24h on
pc for syncing) also produces co2 right?
And an ecologist going online, to buy Plastic that complains about a sheet of
paper truely is lost in my point of view.
But the world sees greater forms of stupidity these days though.

| Hello,
Over the past half-year, I have accumulated over 1,300 Minifig heads, 800 Torsos,
and around 800 or so headgear/hair. As I do not want to sift through and upload
individually, what would be the best way to sell these? They are all clean and
free of dust and I would be willing to sell at a great discount.
Thanks!

If the price is right I am interested in buying the 1300 heads.

Yup! Just select only the categories you wish to run the sale on rather then

At the bottom of the same page you have to select the update option: Put items

Hi,
“Negatives” (like differences and intersections) are difficult to manage here
(Truth be told, “positives” (merges) are a pain too….)
The solutions I can see (at this early hour…) are a bit complicated:
On BL only:
Solution 1: Make an order. Use ‘Apply Order’ to your WL.
Solution 2: Go to the Buy page. Select your Wanted List on the left then change
to the ‘Wanted Items’ tab (be sure both checkboxes ar ticked). Click ‘Apply.’
Find the store in the list of potential stores. Click on its line (NOT on its
name, but near it). The items that are available in the store will be in green
or yellow, the ones that aren’t will be in black, plus, the available and wanted
quantities will be under the items (as “A/w (W)” where A is available in the
store, w is (Want minus Have), and W is Want).
To then make a WL or modify your WL with that is an exercise left to the reader….
With BrickStore or Rebrickable:
Make a cart in the shop. Download the cart (can be done in BS, for RB, I think
you first need to make a WL with the cart, which is possible from within the
cart). And make a diff with your original WL. Upload the diff.

Look for printed parts or minifigures. Use Google lens to identify them, then
see which sets they appear in.

| Lots of discussion about your terms, but that would mostly impact the amount
of orders you get. Hopefully with the changes you're planning to make you'll
have more orders coming in.
|
Terms do matter after the order is placed and received, especially if they werent
read beforehand. For example, they still have this in their terms "If buyer
is not satisfied with product, buyer will pay return shipping as well as a 20%
restocking fee. Remaining balance will be refunded as store credit or through
Paypal (Buyer Choice)." So what the seller is saying is that if they send
poor quality parts, the buyer has to pay for return shipping and a 20% fine for
not being satisfied. In that case, it might not be worth returning the parts,
or even bothering to tell the seller. If they leave appropriate feedback, they'll
probably get a negative back. So instead, they don't leave feedback even
though they are dissatisfied, and least favourite the store so they never have
to deal with them again.

The same is true of the less developed parts of the United States. Big Canadian
cities tend to resemble big American cities, with a small urban core surrounded
by a large ring of low-density car-dependent suburbs.

Yeah it seems so, and for me it wasn't an issue of being a long time unused
or anything. Account only open about a month and was maybe a week or two between
logins. Gonna try again just sucks i lost all the set info and stopped making
notes on the missing pieces of sets since finding this site to track it. oh
well!

Yep, I'd imagine it's the zero Feedback that flags it somehow. Using
the site without "using" the site.
