|
| Is it possible to create 2 addresses that I can always choose from when completing
an order? I have one address in Slovakia for most orders and one in Czech Republic
for CZ orders. Now the only way around is to simply edit my address and after
order placed change it back. because some stores have automated payment for shipping
and if I don´t change the country i don´t get the right options. I know people
in US will probably not understand why I need something but specifically for
people in SK/CZ many people have address in both countries to optimize shipping
cost etc. It´s from the past but that country difference makes me save 7 EUR
on shipping when I instead of 9€ pay just 2€.

That’s what Wanted Lists are for.
When you have made a Wanted List, go to the Buy page ( https://www.bricklink.com/v2/wanted/buy.page
).
Select your WL and it will show you all the stores that have some (or all) your
wanted items.
There are many options on the page.

If you create a wanted list then visit a shop you can then view the wanted items
that the shop has available

Thank you for sharing.
I was wondering why Swanberg's account retained the name. Since major contributors
will not be turned into blusers at some point, then I feel much better about
the whole thing.
I don't want to be a bluser.

Can you share what you learned?

Recently there was a secret clearing-out of old BrickLink accounts, presumably
related to the site sale to TLG. No information was released, but members noticed
that the number of registered users suddenly dropped dramatically.
The criteria for removing accounts was not shared, but I assume it was based
on the last time a member logged into the site. So perhaps if a member had not
logged in for five years, for example, their account was deleted (or, if not
deleted, somehow removed from the list of registered users).
Around the same time I noticed these Bluser accounts as contributors. I didn't
connect the two events until today when I looked at the contributions page for
inventories and figured out what was going on. The site needed to maintain credit
for catalog work completed, but with accounts deleted/disabled there was no username
to credit.
Note that this page, last updated in 2010, claims that accounts cannot be deleted
if certain conditions have been met. Some of those conditions are contributing
to the catalog:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=129
So certain accounts were renamed, although it doesn't look like they were
deleted. Not sure why they needed to be renamed, since this was all done (as
usual) in secret.
Here's what the Bluser accounts mean:
BLUSER_40105 = BrickLink USER ID 40105
All of the above is pure speculation, but it is based on reasonably solid logic.
Hope it helps.

Many accounts were recently deactivated if they had not logged in for a considerable
length of time (several years). In order to preserve the integrity of the catalog
and database in general, the accounts were not deleted, but were fully anonymized
instead.
If people choose to reactivate their account, their old username will reappear
on their account just as they were originally. All they need to do is follow
the instructions on the email they were sent. We may change the BLUSER_######
format in the near future to be less conspicuous on catalog credit pages. Probably
something lowercase, not so predictable, and shorter.
Many historic accounts, such as major contributors or Dan's own personal
account were intentionally untouched by the process.

I do not want to be a seller yet but I would like to keep my inventory on the

did you figure this out? I'm in the same process.

i think the best suggestion was to create closed store to put my inventory in.
I going to try that.

I should have read this first. This is the likely explanation of what has occurred.
Now I'm wondering if there is a way I can prevent my account from being
made anonymous in the event that I am unable to temporarily or permanently log
into my account.
And I think it is unfortunate that a good thing (the fight for privacy) has resulted
in a bad thing (erasing people if they're absent long enough).
Have I mentioned that it would be nice if BrickLink communicated with us?

I think you are reading too much into it. Your username is a way to personally
identify you. Users in certain regions have the legal right to request that you
delete all personal information about them. Anonymizing the user id of people
that have requested to be unregistered from the site is a way to keep the contributions
made while removing the personally identifying information. I doubt there is
a mechanism to anonymize anyone that hasn't explicitly requested to be unregistered.

"As online privacy concerns continue to be taken more seriously, we are starting
to develop policies and procedures for handling private information in a responsible
and transparent manner. This has nothing to do with the sale of the site, as
these policies have been under development (slowly) since the early part of 2019."
"-the username on the terminated account may be replaced."

I do wonder about the official Q&A that never happened, but cleaning house takes
precedence.
Your (previous) username is in the Hall of Fame.
