| | Due to another spammer having appeared on the Forum, and my having to message
the Admins about it, I now think that Bricklink should have a designated “Report”
button on each Forum post (as is the case on Eurobricks). This would make reporting
spam/problem members/etc much easier, since the Admins could be contacted immediately
upon seeing the offending post and automatically be directed to the specific
post in question.
Is this something that Bricklink can implement?

| | When I leave positive buyer feedback it usually results in one of three basic
messages:
One general message thanking the buyer for the order,
One thanking new buyers and welcoming them to BL,
One thanking repeat customers.
It'd be great if we had some options at the feedback screen to just select
from 4-5 pre-set messages. Something like radio buttons for message A, message
B, message C, etc.

My browser already makes feedbacks selectable, I only have to type the first
letter.

| | Why not add a feature to the site where you can select multiple models and then
Easy Buy them all at once?
For example, say I upload two small models to the site and I want to buy both.
I could Easy Buy both models at the same time and possibly find one store selling
the parts for both models!

Already exist. At the Wantlist tab, go to the Search or Buy page.

| | Bricklink famously ground to a halt, twice, because it got hacked. The site
may have been restored to working condition, but a lot of us want nothing to
do with risking exposure of our financial accounts to anyone who may be lurking
behind the scenes. Sellers don't want to give Bricklink the level of control
required to accept payments through Bricklink. Bricklink has announced that
in about a month, they plan to scuttle offsite Paypal as a payment option, without
even taking any input from their core membership. The reason stated was that
new, usually one-time buyers, can't figure out where the payment button is
when they select offsite Paypal as a payment option, so they plan to basically
cut off any buyers and sellers who refuse to use any other form of payment, and
who especially want nothing to do with any onsite Paypal options.
Make offsite Paypal an opt-in payment option. Sellers obviously have to select
up front which payment options they will accept. Make all _buyers_ voluntarily
choose to see offsite Paypal as a payment option when checking out. If a seller
does not accept any other payment options, have them flagged as "does not ship
to you", just like if they were from another country and didn't have your
country enabled for shipping options. If a new buyer signs up, they should be
required to read an explanation of how offsite Paypal works, and confirm that
they want to be able to choose that as a payment option before they even see
it appear in lists.
But seriously, don't chase away a bunch of your regular customers in the
hope that you might be able to "grow your business" on the bank accounts of people
who just get sent here to buy a replacement part that LEGO Consumer Affairs can't
provide, or who are looking for just one retired set, and will never log in again
after they receive their shipment.

Was there not a page in my account settings where I could select my payment methods?
And a filter that hides stores that do not accept my payment types?
Then all what needs to be done is make the default setting for accepting Offsite
Paypal "OFF". (I would not recommend the name "offsite Paypal", I think that
name only makes sense within the current discussion. )
Maybe it was this one... https://www.bricklink.com/storeSettings.new.asp
And yes, save offsite Paypal as an option.
|
That page has been disabled for a while, however buyers can choose their acceptable
payment methods in the advanced search options and Paypal is still listed there.
Not sure about wanted lists cause I don't use that feature, but am sure I
have seen it mentioned somewhere.

Even the payment method element is flawed in design terms. We just had to cancel
an order from someone who chose to pay in euros via Bank Transfer. We only accept
UK pounds for bank transfers and that is/was stated in our terms but because
we aaccept euros (accepted currencies) they were allowed to choose that currency.
Currencies should be defined against payment methods. If you set up bank transfer
you should be able to say GBP only and have that as a viable payment methods.
Again it is not a complicated thing to do - you could have an all radio button
or individual buttons which would need to be marked by the stores for what they
will accept.
They have gone the other way - here are the currencies we accept and here are
ther payment methods you can use. ?????????

| | I'm curious if BL will continue to offer the multitude other off-sites methods.
Anyone looked at what is still available? There's a bunch I've never
even heard of, and seriously, is a Western Union transfer a better option than
PayPal off-site?
|
New Stores can't add Offsite Payment Methods since 8th June 2017.
IBAN is an exception after completing the New Seller Verification process.
