to Bricklink - thus a US export, export to US rules apply - OR we sell to the
customer in their country AND that country's rules apply.
From the persective of the seller, these are simply the only two ways. As a seller
you need to have invoices that mention the country, and then apply the rules

Read the link below, this is not something new. The UK already started in 2016
with quote: "special provisions for online marketplaces".
http://kluwertaxblog.com/2020/02/26/online-marketplaces-and-eu-vat-global-reach-but-compliance-still-local/
These changes to come have been known for 4 years up until Jan 1, 2021.
The OMP is liable. Not just for VAT, but also for the transaction to the buyer.
A BrickLink Order has become a transaction between 3 parties: the buyer, the
(overseas) seller, and BrickLink is now involed too.
All this because governments/countries want to VAT low valued transactions because
of the high volume and thus high 'income' there is to gain by taxing.
|
So, what does the seller's invoice look like?
|
The seller is not invoicing anymore. BrickLink is. The seller is merely a third-party
provider allowing BrickLink to sell their items. The customer buys from BrickLink.
E.g. like bol.com
|
If that becomes the case, and it has already been said by admin it won't
be (at least for the UK) then a lot of stores will disappear. They have said
repeatedly that they have no plans on charging vat on orders in the UK, other
than import/export situation.
Mind you all of this is total speculation and that was mentioned by Russell in
this thread. They are lagging behind on getting this done, which is also increasingly
worrying. When it comes to making progrtammin chnages haste makes waste and they
are very much aware of that.

| I think it is a little more complicated then that. Yes you have to pay Vat when
you are a professional seller and only on the profit margin, but the consumer
doesn't usually pay VAT on used items so i can understand this question.
In NL they are called margin goods and it is up to the seller to either charge
VAT or to not charge it on their bill and they usually do not. And if you sell
consumer to consumer you do not pay VAT but there is this grey area of when you
are a consumer and when you are in business. When you buy a book read it and
sell it on you do not need to pay VAT even if you sell it for more then you bought
it for but if i you buy it with intention to sell at a profit then you do need
to pay VAT.
So i do understand this question but the rules differ per country that why it
is probably impossible for BL to differentiate

And do not forget the OMP must collect all the money and disburse it, else it
is not an OMP. Can you imagine BrickLink being in charge of your money. Iron
Maiden gave very good advice - Run to the hills, Run for your life...
But all of this is moot - they have registered as an OMP, not a normal vendor,
so now they must change the ToS and get going. We wait
and wait...

Seems rather odd to me. VAT = Value Added Tax. It does not depend on something
being new or used. As long as there is value added, there is tax to be payed.
The regular situation is a percentage VAT. However Consumers can't charge
VAT so if you buy from a Consumer and sell again, you have to pay VAT on the
difference (if positive), because that is the value added. Most of the time it
will be used items, but in principle the items could be new as well. That does
not make any difference.

I recently promised more details on our Brexit solution, but I will just be frank
with you, that what you have described is exactly the case. We are waiting to
hear from our tax professionals as to how we need to proceed, and they are waiting
to hear from the authorities. It feels as if we are actually further from a solution
at this point than we were at the beginning of the year.
|
With all due respect, as one of those who have closed down sales to the UK and
losing some busienss because of it, you went and registered as an Online Marketplace
all by yourselves when even the worst advisor would have told you, BrickLink
is not an OMP for UK VAT purposes. If you had to register as a vendor for VAT
purposes that would have allowed you to collect VAT on your fees and pay VAT
on your sales originating in the UK when you have AFOL program again which is
part of your UK turnover.
But by registering as an online marketplace vendor you are factually liable to
collect the VAT on every export sale to the UK made on this platform. You are
also factually liable to give buyers invoices as sellers are not the vendors.
You do not have to share the VAT number with me, all you have you to do is, when
a buyer place an order, invoice the buyer VAT inclusive, collect the money and
disburse it - VAT to the government, sale and shipping to me, exactly as an online
marketplace for UK VAT purposes is supposed to do.
Certainly, if your advisors are spinning their wheels, you should get other advisors.
BrickLink is not only responsible to BrickLink. If you view BrickLink as a marketplace,
then BrickLink is responsible to buyers and sellers as well. And that is where
you are missing the pot and messing on the floor and we all have to wade in the
mess caused by it. If your registration is not as an OMP fior UK VAT purposes,
but as a normal UK vendor, then say so so that sellers can register for VAT and
be done with it. But please do not tell me that you are an online OMP for UK
VAT purposes then still require of me to invoice a buyer - that birdie don't
fly.
And as has been mentioned - the UK is not in the EU any longer - it does not
require input from the government or a tax advisor to fix a search function which
has been wrong for almost two months.

just look at this from a logic perspective:
If it was legally valid to write "Bricklink order" on your invoice, then the
EU and the UK would have had an emergency meeting by now because they realised
that almost all of the international trade is being labelled "Bricklink order"
It can't work like that. So yeah, EITHER Bricklink is the seller and WE sell
to Bricklink - thus a US export, export to US rules apply - OR we sell to the
customer in their country AND that country's rules apply.
From the persective of the seller, these are simply the only two ways. As a seller
you need to have invoices that mention the country, and then apply the rules
for THAT country. There is only "United States" or "United Kingdom". There's
simply no such thing as "United Kingdom-but-it's-a-Bricklink-order-and-Bricklink-said-it's-fine"
Or am I too pessimstic about the amount of patience tax agencies have when doing
audits and people come up with stories about platform selling (without hard evidence)?

| There is a lot of work that needs to be done in the Friends area. The heads are
different and the numbering doesn't follow BL conventions, some entries combine
parts that are printed versus dual-molded, and now this. Unfortunately, Friends
is an area that does not get much love from contributors and needs a champion
to get things moving.
But, yes, this should be combined with all the other Friends stuff.

No, we should expect. After all we pay fees for this site. It was long time known
Brexit was coming, they should have been ready for it.

that the UK hasn't yet got it right and neither does the rest of the EU -

Yes, true. UK hasn't got it on the track. EU does however. On the short term
EU draws the longest straw, more and more companies are moving away from UK in
favor of EU or elsewhere. That is a loss for the UK regrettably, but needles
to say UK wanted the Brexit no the EU. On the long run it is inconclusive if
this development is a good thing. Cooperation is imo the better road how complicated
it might be.
So maybe it is the best of worst to exclude UK for now. Until they got their
things together. But I give you this, it is very complicated.
|
Things are together, at least at other websites. I've ordered non-lego parts
from aliexpress since the change from different sellers. VAT was charged and
all were clear on the declaration that VAT was paid. Similarly I've ordered
lego parts from Germany, via another online marketplace website, VAT paid there
too.

We will bide our time before we make up our mind on the way forward - a lot depends
o how BL deal with it and that, according to them, is still pretty much unknown.
We have turned away a few orders since Jan 1 from different areas in the EU -
ione we processed and a simple cn22 - posted it and the buyer got it in good
time and here were no snags (Switzerland - which isn't really part of the
EU but all went okay).

I recently promised more details on our Brexit solution, but I will just be frank
with you, that what you have described is exactly the case. We are waiting to
hear from our tax professionals as to how we need to proceed, and they are waiting
to hear from the authorities. It feels as if we are actually further from a solution
at this point than we were at the beginning of the year.
|
With all due respect, as one of those who have closed down sales to the UK and
losing some busienss because of it, you went and registered as an Online Marketplace
all by yourselves when even the worst advisor would have told you, BrickLink
is not an OMP for UK VAT purposes. If you had to register as a vendor for VAT
purposes that would have allowed you to collect VAT on your fees and pay VAT
on your sales originating in the UK when you have AFOL program again which is
part of your UK turnover.
But by registering as an online marketplace vendor you are factually liable to
collect the VAT on every export sale to the UK made on this platform. You are
also factually liable to give buyers invoices as sellers are not the vendors.
You do not have to share the VAT number with me, all you have you to do is, when
a buyer place an order, invoice the buyer VAT inclusive, collect the money and
disburse it - VAT to the government, sale and shipping to me, exactly as an online
marketplace for UK VAT purposes is supposed to do.
Certainly, if your advisors are spinning their wheels, you should get other advisors.
BrickLink is not only responsible to BrickLink. If you view BrickLink as a marketplace,
then BrickLink is responsible to buyers and sellers as well. And that is where
you are missing the pot and messing on the floor and we all have to wade in the
mess caused by it. If your registration is not as an OMP fior UK VAT purposes,
but as a normal UK vendor, then say so so that sellers can register for VAT and
be done with it. But please do not tell me that you are an online OMP for UK
VAT purposes then still require of me to invoice a buyer - that birdie don't
fly.
And as has been mentioned - the UK is not in the EU any longer - it does not
require input from the government or a tax advisor to fix a search function which
has been wrong for almost two months.

I recently promised more details on our Brexit solution, but I will just be frank
with you, that what you have described is exactly the case. We are waiting to
hear from our tax professionals as to how we need to proceed, and they are waiting
to hear from the authorities. It feels as if we are actually further from a solution
at this point than we were at the beginning of the year.

We have already pointed you links from the UK Gov website (authorities) explaining
things.
BL is still charging EU VAT in sales to UK, and that is without doubt illegal...
At least we sellers can disable it. But for sales under 135GBP B2C it is illegal
not to charge UK 20% VAT and remit it to UK HMRC.
Those are factually correct...
If the problem is if you are legally not sure if BL is an OMP or not, this maybe
needs a decision of just accepting it is a OMP even thought legally could be
defended is not (hypothetically).
Then decide to gather the UK VAT the same as US TAX, that would make BL a stronger
platform, because the other option means BL sellers will have to register by
themselves and most would not do it. This will mostly close the international
UK buying options.
And this would happen again and again as each country creates new laws to collect
VAT on buyers behalf. US and Norway since last year, UK since two months ago,
EU in four months from now...
Here is what other website puts on the invoices to UK if this helps:
20% UK Import VAT has been paid on this order via the online marketplace XXXXXXXXX
Ltd with VAT ID GBXXXXXXXXX. For more information see https://www.gov.uk/guidance/vat-and-overseas-goods-sold-to-customers-in-the-uk-using-online-marketplaces
You already have the development to take a % fee from a PayPal or Stripe payment,
this would work the same for now, even simpler because it would be a fixed VAT
rate depending of the buyer country.
But best would be if offsite payments would be accepted too, and in those cases
the % VAT owed to BL from the seller paid by IBAN transfer that has no fees for
most, we understand this can come at a later date.
Russell, sincerely, what I mean is just one question...
What are your tax professionals expecting to hear from the authorities that it
is not already explained in the UK GOV website?

I particularly like the uk.gov website regarding distance selling, this is there
advice."
The Brexit transition period has ended and new rules on distance selling now
apply. This page is currently out of date.
https://www.gov.uk/online-and-distance-selling-for-businesses
|
That is because many other sites link to the gov.uk pages. So rather than just
have dead links, they tell you it is now out of date, so you know to look up
the correct information on the site.

And what are we supposed to do in the meantime ?. ......... Is the only option
to register for england vat, or exclude selling to england ?.
And can you fix the selling zones as england is defiantly not in the EU. Thanks.
|
There is no such thing as England VAT. Similarly you cannot exclude just England.
There is UK VAT, and you can exclude UK.

| Isn’t a lot of the problem the very poor communication though? If Bricklink said
“ VAT is now payable for imports, if sellers are registered charge VAT and ship
with proof, if not warn your buyers that VAT is payable on receipt and may incur
additional charges” then sellers could decide how to proceed for themselves.
But instead Bricklink said “we are registered and it’s our liability” with no
explanation how this will work and saying they can’t/won’t share VAT number.
No one knows where they stand.
VAT isn’t really a Brexit issue. As everyone will find out when EU VAT comes
in in July. Will the world stop selling to the EU then too???
And the UK still coming up in EU searches isn’t a tax advisor issue. It’s just
couldn’t be bothered to prepare for an event that had years’ of forewarning.

I think most of us who are following this issue are well aware of the issues
you are facing. Personally I would much rather wait till more is known and all
aspects of the vat introduction are dealt with e..g non-registered vat stores.
I believe I worked out that there are possibly less than 1% of UK stores who
are registered and , in the main, their registration is not based on Bricklink
turnover alone.
So maybe with the delay we can sort out other things that are not working as
intended, or simply broken.
Using the development method that you guys do requires almost a constant stream
of patching and whilst that method has its followers and believers not everyone
agrees and the crux of using your chosen method is the need to patch and patch
and patch - and that does not look like it is happening.
Anyway good luck with the vat - in the meantime, like many others we have stopped
selling to non-domestic buyers - which has to be hitting BL's bottom line
as more and more stores choose that route.

BrickLink is busy with USA sales taxes, we really should not expect multitasking
in their attempts to break things. They did say they will address the Brexit
issues before 5 February (they did not say which aeon though).

Now that I look at the higher "set" ID entry of char01-9, it has the 18674 entry
included. I would suggest just deleting the image for mar0032 so it does not
show that 18674 blue tile on the bottom.

Hi!
From Brand New Bag From Set 7477 Just Parted Out the Set And It Included The String In A Box Marked
"4276320
0.75 M"
I Also Measured The String And It Was 78 cm (approx) Not Sure If that Is the reason why it is marked as undetermined length and whether or not it should remain that way as it is technically not 75cm exact
The Box Was In A Sealed Bag From The Set.
Thank you for your time!

I thought it WAS black. If all of those sticker prints are dark blue, I don't
have the skills to take the orange out and leave the blue. I masked off some
obvious colors and then took the color out entirely.

I believe the Lufthansa logo is always Dark Blue:
https://brickset.com/sets/40146-1
The windows are black though.
I used Irfanview, and in half the cases, Auto-Adjust Colors did the trick. In
the other ones I used the Color Corrections feature. If you click on an area
in the left image that is supposed to be white, it makes the adjustment for you.

| | When you are in a store and filter by items on your wanted list the auto-fill
[min | max] option appears. However, it seems as both of these options are useless
in their current state and a different option would be useful.
auto-fill max automatically adds all pieces a seller has available to your cart.
If you want 1 and the seller has 14,000 you get 14,000 added. I'm not sure
how that is useful. You have to manually adjust every lot to the correct qty.
|
The max is good when you have a wanted list of items you want to get in high
qtys, so whenever you find a store with good prices, you can open that WL and
click max.
| |
auto-fill min automatically selects the number you have set in your wanted list
but ignores price, so if a seller has a $.01 piece listed for $400 you get that
in your cart. You again have to manually adjust every lot.
|
Yeah, it would be great if the max price would do something when auto-filling
min
| |
A much more useful feature would be an autofill like the autofill min that fills
in the correct qty, but one that also accounts for the max price that you have
set in your wanted list and does not add pieces to your cart that are more than
you want to pay.
|
|
Maybe an extra filter option would do the trick
"Hide Items if Price is ≥ Max price"
That way you you could see only the items you want from the store and use the
min/max options as they are.
|
I love this suggestion as an extra filter option.

Yep! I have shipped, or almost shipped, the wrong color on more than one occasion.
Tan and Dark Tan renders are also terrible and nigh indistinguishable at times.

As similar things happened to me as well in the past, i started to dig into the
settings here.
You can choose to show a color box and the color name directly, in your order
settings.
Then the small Image is shown, next to it the color box, and then the real color
name.
Learn or adjust to pack only by the colorname and box, this way you eradicate
most picking errors. Never pack from the shown pictures, as they are wrong some
times.
Unlearn what you have learned. * *

If you go to the catalog tab there is a color guide part which lists all the
colors and you can then select from there to see all the parts that are made
in that colour
|
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogColors.asp?utm_content=subnav
Note that there are different ways of defining 'color exists':
(1) Is it for sale? If there are only a few available worldwide, check those
listings: if they say 'HTF' (hard to find) they are probably legit; if
they are cheap with no specification and generally no image: they are likely
non-existent results of typos.
(2) On wanted lists: This is just wishful thinking of Bricklink users, hoping
that the part will someday appear in that color.
(3) Appearing in sets: Did LEGO bring out a set (and does Bricklink have the
inventory of this set) in which this part appears in that color. Some parts are
available in colors even though they never came out in a set. Beware, as those
ghost parts may be rather expensive.
These 3 different ways all appear on the above Color Guide page. And then there
is:
(4) Proof of existence: is there an actual photo of the part in the Bricklink
catalog? This can be seen in store listings and on the catalog page.

That link was exactly what I was looking for. I just wanted to know if parts
I want exist and are for sale and if not, find something similar that might do
(or actually be better than the ones I considered). Cheers

Rather than searching for individual pieces that might not exist in a certain
colour, I'd like to see the parts that are available/do exist to help with
MOCs.

There are already national flags on feedback pages.

The edge lines on the representative renders on XP came as a result of tens of
thousands of Studio renders being set aside during the 2017 image project. Here's
one of the ones that made it through:
With no edge lines and only a minimal amount of shading, a majority of those
images lacked enough definition at a small size to be an improvement over the
classic "black line" render. So in most cases, official LEGO renders were used
instead:
The standard rendering engine on Studio is configured more for entire models
than single parts, so for those XP images, we used a special processing system
that is not part of the regular Studio package. They were not batch produced
- each one was hand crafted.
The trouble with renders is that line-drawn renders like those representative
images are "tuned" to an optimal size. Troy's renders were given edge lines
just thick enough to look great at 80 x 60. If they would be shown smaller or
bigger than that you would need to adjust the line thickness. Those of you who
have used LDraw and some of the popular rendering tools associated with it, you
may be familiar with that setting.
In modern web design, images are often expected to be used at a variety of sizes.
The old BrickLink did not have that challenge. All part images on the site were
small and exactly the same standard size, except for the large "see it closer"
images which would open in another setting and were often a different image entirely
from the "thumbnail". I hesitate to even call those images thumbnails because
they actually were the standard for the site. All the catalog list pages, inventories,
order detail pages, etc (and even the Forum macro tags) were only shown at that
standard. Yes, there are/were ways to see the large images in some different
views, but most of the time people were looking at the small ones.
|
If you do more renders in the future, please, enable the setting to show the
word LEGO on the studs... the XP images may be confused as knock-offs brands...

Hi again,
If you visit a store and go to feedback people can’t instantly see the flag.

| While I knew about the setting to show flags on the regular feedback page, I'd
love to see them in a store's feedback page (when you click on "Orders" or
feedback rating in the top right corner) as well!

I think you'll find he means when you go to a store's feedback page rather
than a personal feedback page. So that way although they may have shipping to
your country selected as an option you can see if anyone from your country has
bought from them recently and what the transaction was like.
