Comments from Submitter:
Verified from looking inside a sealed polybag. Also, more importantly: this set comes in TWO separate polybags (hence, the "1" in the picture). How does one adress this for inventary purposes? Please advise.
|
I'm not entirely sure what the "1" stands for in this case. It could be part
of a promotional series which included non-Lego toys. It's hard to say, since
polybags with identical set numbers were sometimes used in different markets
or at different times and had different packaging. Hence this set:
...where the large image shows a bag without the number "2".
|
I respectfully disagree; I am *entirely* sure the 1 and 2 stand for two halves
of the same set, because:
a) I have a copy of either number (see photos);
b) the polybags are at least partially transparent;
c) I could perform both visual and tactile checks on the contents of both, and
can say with certainty: each bag has only 4 parts, not repeated from bag 1 to
bag 2.
I have in fact managed to list which parts are in which bag, but must humbly
admit my lack of skills to carry out the required update of the database (re:
create 2 subsets, like in advent calendars, I suppose).
Feel free to use my photos for inventory purposes; in fact, I took them months
ago and then forgot all about this inventory change request - please accept my
apologies for the negligence.

| If you select PayPal Marketplace as picabo suggests, you will not be able to
revert back to your current Onsite PayPal method.
There was little information required to enable Onsite PayPal (whether complete
or incomplete as BrickLink information goes), however PayPal Marketplace in my
opinion is a more intrusive agreement.
I need to read this entire thread carefully, however I believe the answer to
your question is not available, unless BrickLink has clearly stated they will
push everyone wanting to use PayPal to the PayPal Marketplace as the only option.

to continue to recieve PayPal payments, og will the current PayPal onsite method

I answered your last paragraph: “I haven't noticed anything different or
what is so bad about
each either. If there is something different or bad, what am I missing?”
You can’t broaden up a question then narrow it down again when the answer doesn’t
suit you.

And I think you already agreed to that
|
It would probably be better since I never use the My BL page for anything, I
don't see the reminder to pay the fees for Bricklink. It might be easier
this way but then it would be something that Bricklink would have to set up with
PayPal and I don't see that happening anytime soon. You also can disconnect
your PayPal account at anytime so no one is forced into this.
|
Sellers are forced into it when they can’t choose any other payment method than
PayPal Marketplaces.
Buyers are forced into it when they can’t choose any offsite payment method.

They won't be able to log into your account directly, from the way people
are reading it. They _will_ be able to contact Paypal and request a chargeback
which Paypal will probably cheerfully comply with without asking any questions
(and if you're really unlucky, like a guy in my LUG was, Paypal will charge
you a fee for "representing" you when they surrender like Jar-Jar). They _will_
be able to inform Paypal that X money should be diverted to Bricklink as the
owner of the "marketplace".

They don’t, and they can’t. BL has control over the BL-initiated transactions,
but only so they can request PP to delay the payment, subtract a fee, and/or
initiate a refund. They can’t reroute the transaction into their own account,
they can’t access (or even see) your non-BL transactions, it is solely more control
over the payment flow for BL-initiated PP transactions.
Niek.

Did you ever sign on to a public wifi network and get a warning that even if
the site you're viewing is secure, someone could still be watching the whole
time via the network? Did you ever go into a seedy internet café and log into
all of your bank accounts from every computer in the place? No? Why not? Was
it because you didn't want to worry about what sort of malware might be lurking
in the background, logging all of your keystrokes? Right now Bricklink is the
internet café terminal, telling you that in order to actually use their services,
you have to use their computer to submit payment to them.
It doesn't matter that Bricklink doesn't have you store your login info
on their server. It's the idea of loading Bricklink on the computer that
I use to access financial accounts, after they were hacked so badly that the
entire site was shut down for days...on two separate occasions. Bricklink goes
on Computer A. Paypal goes on Computer B. If they can figure out how to manage
an Onsite Paypal payment by logging into Paypal on a different computer, I'm
fine with that. If they want me to initiate a popup window to process the payment
by clicking on a button on Bricklink, they need to go back to the drawing board.

What you missed is that you already agreed for BrickLink to:
— look into your PP transactions
— block payments and decide refunds.
BL didn’t make any statement about their intentions. (And, anyway, intentions
can change.)
BL didn’t either explain what will happen to those who refuse to agree to Marketplaces.
And if you watch Big B Bricks’ interview of Jaclyn ( https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1081977
), you’ll see automatic fees is strongly considered.
And I think you already agreed to that.

Bricklink and Paypal do not get to play on the same computer in my home, which
makes paying by any onsite payment option about as problematic as having a Chinese
space station land on your head (and I hear that may be a possibility for me
around the same time this fiasco is scheduled to burn down, fall over, and sink
into the swamp).

It is a shame how stubborn Bricklink has become. It was a community at one time,
almost a family. Now it is just them.
