| | This is something that crossed my mind reading the forum.
What if you have to leave a message to the counterpart BEFORE leaving a non positive?
Like: "I am leaving this negative feedback, the counterpart may reply to this
message within XX days before the feedback becomes effective".
If I am a seller, I may want to contact a rushy buyer who is leaving me a negative
for an order that had a bad outcome before warning me about that. This way I
can offer refunds, coupons, reshipping or whatever, and the buyer may be discouraged
from leaving me bad feedback.
If I am buyer, I may want to contact a rushy seller who is leaving me a negative
without even contacting me, and I may want to settle things in order to avoid
the feedback.
I have received sometimes rushy feedbacks that underwent all the feedback removeal
procedure... this may have been just spared if the person was aware that I had
in my intentions to settle things.

The feedback page encourages to resolve issues before leaving feedback:
Please try to resolve any disputes before posting a complaint. Feedback must
not be used to communicate with your trading partner or ask them a question

I have some long-awaited news for you! We have created a new Catalog Admin position
which has privileges on both sides of the system, the catalog and inventories.
This is a culmination of about 3 years of work, and we are so proud of our first
ever member to take this position, Hygrotus.
He has steadily worked his way up to this level from his years of being an outstanding
and reliable contributor, to a special class of contributor known as an Inventories
Verifier, to one year experience as an Inv Admin, and then most recently about
14 months as a Catalog Associate. We are pleased that he has stuck with the program
and now is going to forge ahead.
We are combining the two "halves" of the system for many reasons, but the main
one being efficiency. If only one admin is available on a given weekend, for
example, we can take care of contributions on both sides, which are often dependent
on each other.
We will retain the Catalog Associate and Inv Admin positions for the purpose
of training new Catalog Admins. They will be considered transitory positions.

It would be really good if in the sellers store shipping settings page we could

automatically sent them a message like 'thanks for your order, please message
us withing 7 days to say you have completed your order so we may invoice you'.
It would save a lot of time from having to write them out for each individual
order. Even better would be if this whole shipping option was avaliable for all
sellers to select and turn on instead of making a shipping option and having
to put in prices (in which mine is 0 until the order is done then worked out

I think if you add a instant checkout shipping method without instant payment
a customized invoice can be send by using the HTML tags.

| | This may not have been an issue previously, but due to COVID-19, I am weary of
buying from international sellers as a result of reduced flights to and from
certain countries. I say that because through no fault of the seller, 5 of my
orders have been delayed by 2 months now. I still have no idea when / if I will
receive them.
The sellers I've dealt with have all been great (even with a language barrier)
but as a purchaser moving forward, I think it would make sense to see feedback
based on geographic location.
For example, if I'm a US buyer and I want to make a purchase from a store,
I've been finding that I go to the feedback, click on the person who left
the feedback and see where they are located. Doing that is entirely manual and
cumbersome. It would be so much easier to filter the feedback from a specific
location and I can see the most recent orders and feedback from that person by
on location. If they have plenty of US buyers, I can make an educated decision
about parcels still being shipped and reliability of those orders making it to
their destination.
Maybe others won't find that helpful, but as someone from the US that has
not received 5 of their orders, seems like a great way to find feedback from
others in my same area to make me feel more confident in buying from overseas
sellers.
Even after COVID - I think that feature makes a lot of sense.

First, when I open one of my Wanted Lists, it Always defaults to 25 items per

default size every time (so that I can see everything on 1 screen). With internet
speeds the way they are today, 100 items pop up quickly. I would like to see
the number of items per page be an option that is remembered. (In fact, in general
I would like to see number of items per page be a preference saved across Bricklink.)

Yes. It has been suggested before.

Secondly, along these lines, I would like to see a few more preferences saved
when I select a part. Specifically, a lot of times I have to click "More Options"
and I always have to select "Seller Location". I would like to see both of those
as saved options so I don't have to select them every time I bring up a new
part.

You can select location:

Now I know there may be a good reason he might not have paid but, as he already
has one negative feedback out of 18 as a buyer my gut feeling is this is a problem
buyer. If I cancel the order at this point to get these 1550 parts back in my

days and then wait another week, maybe more before I can recover these parts.
We should be able to cancel an order after 3 days without the risk of negative

Change the orderstatus to packed then no new batches can be added.

Do you think a feature will be added in which when you part out a set you can

how much each part cost based on how much they sell for (depending on if you

Use Brickstock to do that.

BrickStock doesn't have an option to calculate / add the MyCost per item.
|
I've read it's easier to add the costs on Brickstock and upload the file
than entering the costs one by one on Bricklink.

| | We allow payment both onsite and offsite.
The issue is that offsite payments require the buyers to check the 'red'
paid box.
some buyers (specially new ones) mistakenly take this to mean that their offsite
payment didn't go through and re-submit payment for the second time (sometimes
even after the order was shipped) which creates more work to refund and with
the new paypal policy might also cost sellers extra fees.
It would be great if seller can manually check this paid box and switch it to
green in order to avoid this misunderstanding. i know we can mark the order paid
and shipped but a buyer yesterday in one of many examples wanted to make sure
they paid because they saw the box was red and ended up paying for the second
time.
Thanks for considering.
|
If you click on the edit order icon you get to change the payment status to paid/not
paid independently of the order status dropdown menu on you orders received page.
Does that help you in the meantime?
Sometimes buyers mark as paid (by ticking the paid box) when they havent - you
can change the status back to not paid on the edit order page in the same way.
|
I don't think i understand your answer, perhaps if you walk me step by step
then i might be able to understand better.
we change the 'order status'; drop menu to 'paid' or 'shipped'
but the buyer still sees a red checkbox next to the 'paid' checkboxes.
those checkboxed are not showing for me as a seller.
i do understand that buyers can check the 'paid' box even if they didn't
which is a different issue that doesn't really concern me however it would
be nice if the buyer checked the box accidentally if i was able to uncheck it-
but i don't want to sidestep the underline issue i raised initially:
Buyers that paid via link or sent a payment manually are not always aware that
it is up to them to check the 'paid' box to turn it green and mistakenly
think that their offsite payment did not go through and end up paying a second
time.
If i was able to check the box for or before they do and they would see it green
instead of red- it would reduce the occurrences of duplicate payments which has
been happening 1-3 time per month for us.
|
BricksThatStick is right, with this method you can check that box (separating
payment and order status in the settings and then change the payment status to
submitted or something like that).
But do you really need this? The box means "payment submitted" (not "paid") so
it is by definition a status update that only the buyer can make. The only thing
you can do from your side is verify the payment and update it to "paid". I don't
see why you'd want to update the status to "payment submitted", the buyer
can do this by themselves. The box can't be red if the order status is "paid".
|
Thank you, i'm going to try adjusting the setting to see if that works.
I agree that the buyer needs to change the box BUT in reality 1-3 times per month
i get a buyer (usually new) that doesn't know that it is their task and probably
believes that the system should have automatically change this to 'green'
paid status. when they see 'red' they believe that the payment they submitted
didn't go through and they pay a second time.
When a seller changes the drop menu to 'paid' or 'shipped' the
buyer still sees the paid box as red indicating unpaid (only when payment was
off Bricklink)
Thanks for taking the time to help, i'll let you know after i go through
the settings section.
Best wishes.

Ah I see, well, in that case it probably won't help much even if you change
it, because in such cases it seems like they are expecting realtime feedback
from the site. I include a standard instruction in my invoice asking buyers to
mark the order as paid after sending payment, might help too.
Probably good if Bricklink would improve the interface a little so that it is
clear for new users they need to do this. Best if it shows up in their to-do
items in the top right corner - that way they'd be more likely to understand
the system and more likely to do it.
Separating payment and order status can be done here by the way:
https://www.bricklink.com/orderSettings.asp?viewFrom=P
I am not 100% sure it corresponds to the checkbox, but I know that the grand
total showing up in a bold font on the seller's side corresponds to a checked
box at the buyer's side.
|
That does help!! Thank you!
I wonder if when i change the payment status to 'completed' would the
buyers box turn green?

Yes, I have tried both of those. If we had a status of rejected then the system
would need to be programmed to then allow a NPB. I've also reset the status
to pending.

Check the order received page settings to Separate the payment status from the
order status.
Change the Order status from Paid, then you can change the payment status as
none and start the NPB process.

| | Hello,
I was wondering if a feature or timer, to see whether a BrickLink
member is active or has been active (like on FB messenger or WhatsApp), would
be a great idea.
|
What exactly can be considered as active, logged in or not?
| |
The reason why I'm wondering:
I'm sure there are members who logs in daily to see if another
member has reacted to their order('s invoice)/message, and are nervously
waiting until he/she/they react(s).
|
Be patient.
| |
It will also be handy to see if a member (who placed an order on your store)
is active on BL and isn't responding to your multiple messages (or just ignoring),
and easier to decide to cancel an order.
|
If the buyer doesn't respond you should start the NPB-process and complete
it before canceling the order.
| |
For example (my example):
There is a member (USA) who has placed an order on my store (Belgium) a few days
ago. I instantly filled in and sent the invoice to serve him and be able to send
the parcel (after payment) as quickly as possible. But until now, two days later,
he hasn't read the message nor has paid for the order. Now I'm just wondering
if he was active or not lately... cause the hole situation is making me nervous.
I know I should be patient... but I find it kind of weird he responded very quickly
to my last call for buying, and afterwards not responding anymore.
So if you recognize yourself in such a situation, maybe vote 'YES' and
perhaps selling on BL will be more pleasant and more serious. I'm sure there
is a lot of members thinking this way, isn't it?
Kindly greetings,
Yapke

The item doesn't show up in the items for sale.
I guess the Price Guide isn't shown in Real Time.
Maybe the items are in void of the payment process.
