| Not all of the previous BAM seem to be listed?
I can find "La Catrina" from several sellers, but I could not find the
skeleton mariachi guys.

| Can a seller retaliate by leaving me negative feedback if I file NSS?
I bought a couple of Batman minifigs from a seller. Some are listed as NEW and
some USED.
Got my shipment, and two of the NEW minifigs came with somewhat frayed capes.
Obviously not new but these will be displayed behind a frame so I will let those
pass.
However, one of the NEW minifigs has a cracked cowl on the chin and obvious white
stress marks at the corners of the chinstrap.
I sent the seller a message through BL (now already marked as "read"
but no response. I did also send him a direct email with the photos.
I am thinking giving him a couple more days to a week to reply, and if not then
I will file a NSS case.

| Can I still get an order canceled after it has been invoiced?
I wanted to order a set which was listed as having a badly damaged box and the
contents are now just in polybags. So I just assumed that the shipping would
be under $20 or so. But when I got the invoice, shipping is a whopping $40+++.
I just ordered a different set which had an intact box from a seller further
away and the shipping was about $17. And ordered another one prior to that, and
likewise.
$40 is just quite much.
I already messaged the seller to cancel the order mutually, but if he does not
agree, do I not have any other option but to pay up this order?
Thanks!

|
| Some sellers list the exact same item multiple times. I am trying to purchase
items from my parts list of about 200+ items and sometimes a single seller supposedly
has 1000+ items on that list of mine!
When I click on the "min" link to populate the quantity, I sometimes
spend more time unclicking those boxes for duplicates.
Is there a quick way to bypass these multiple listings???

| Might anyone have any suggestion for a Y-connector so that an elephant figure
can have two tusks on each side? I'm trying to make a Mumakil (war elephant
from LOTR), and I'm using that "War Elephant" MOC on Rebrickable.
Thanks for any help!

|
| This is probably a question for SW fans out there:
There's an upcoming set, the Inquisitor Transport Scythe with three inquisitor
minifigs.
I believe the Fifth Brother from that set is a remake of the SW0747 from set
75157.
Is the Grand Inquisitor a remake as well? There was a minifig SW0622 from set
75082 which was only named "The Inquisitor." Are they the same character?

|
| Shouldn't the refund be to the original form of payment?
I am based out of the US and bought an item from a Canadian seller who falsely
advertised a particular color of a minifig hairpiece. It can happen, and the
seller claims to be color-blind. :s
I asked for a refund. Took 14+ days or so because of "his bank."
I used PayPal to pay. He issued a refund through a website called Interac which
is giving me options to transfer funds into a Canadian bank!
I have to open a Canadian bank account to receive a $6 refund for a wrongly labeled
minifig hair piece?
Should I just file a PayPal refund? or a NSS? He appears cooperative but seems
clueless about what's going on. He states that he does not understand why
I could not get my money back. 
Any thoughts?

| Any tips for packing modulars for a house move?
I've collected about 8+ modulars over the course of the past year and have
held off on assembling them knowing that I will be moving 2500 miles out of state
and back in that time frame. However, I've assembled three MOCs and would
hate to have to disassemble them and find time to put them back together after
the final move.
Thanks in advance for any tips!

| Can a positive comment still be changed if the transaction is still not complete?
Can I still file a claim about an order after this comment has been placed?
I ordered from a seller about a month ago. A week after, the status has not changed
and I sent a message. Seller states that her children were ill. Alright, I could
understand and I was patient with that, and she was apologetic about it. It took
about ten days until she said she had already shipped it. However, she left the
status as "packed."
Two weeks later, I ask about this order and apparently, she had not shipped it
out at all. She posted the tracking info and it states that a label had just
been created! That was already two days ago!
The problem is, I will be moving out of my apartment in less than three weeks!
I informed the seller about this, and she gave no reply!

|
| Every two weeks or so, for the past month+ now, I have been getting updates that
my order for the Old Fishing Boat will be shipped out in about two weeks. It
just keeps getting pushed back.
What was an early June ship out date is now for the first week of July.
I'm actually moving sometime during the second week of August. And that worries
me if the ship out date is pushed further out.
More delays to come?

| Ordered a couple of items from a Canadian seller. One item arrived here in the
USA in the wrong color and I asked for a refund. Seller states I have to wait
until the 21-day hold on payments is up before he can send me the refund.
Is this 21-day hold a new thing now?

| Is there a quick way to delete recently ordered/ received items from a wanted
list?
I know there's that button towards the end of an invoice to "add back" items
to a wanted list, but I can't find a quick way to tick off purchased items
from a wanted list.

I think it is currently out of stock from any seller (?)
But why is it now gone on the list of colors for this part?

| There are only a few pearl dark gray (pdg) monofigs out there and claim to have
pdg hands as well. I could not find on BL the original minifigs where these pdg
hands came from.
Any ideas?

|
| There have been several occasions when I had to place a second order just after
placing one at a store. Sometimes, the system would create a second 'batch'
order and combine it with the first one. The second invoice would usually have
a price + shipping marked as 'TBD'.
At some shops however, the system just creates a second order and charges a new
shipping fee outright.
Are the above preferences set by the store owner?
