You are literally screwing up my access to rare parts that are only available
on this site. You are hurting part of this hobby for me. STOP IT! I am only
a buyer and not a seller. I understand you must be going through some growing
pains trying to get all the sellers to pay taxes, but don't take it out on
the buyers. Seriously stop blocking my access to the parts I need. Not allowing
me to ship items to my home from sellers who are willing to ship them to me is
a legitimate reason for me to be pissed. You are forcing me to go buy clone
parts off site when I don't really want to as an immediate direct result
of this action.


Just in case it wasn't clear-I have no problem with the taxes. I have a
problem that Bricklink won't allow me to complete a transaction with many
stores at the moment. I do a fair amount of bricklink buying to put it mildly.

Sellers (those who have enabled onsite payments) are not paying your taxes at
all, they are simply enabling BrickLink to collect and remit those taxes on their
behalf as required by law for sales in many states.

  Hey BL,

Please spend more time on taxes, that is definitely the one aspect of this site
I care the most about. As a seller, please, please don’t waste your time on developing
seller tools, tools are for dummies. Also, please don’t fix website bugs, they
don’t hurt anyone. And furthermore, please don’t spend any time on catching up
on support desk requests, why bother?

There are only two certainties in life, death and taxes. You can’t develop website
tax implementation when your dead, so please, let’s get these taxes right! From
now on it’s taxes, taxes, taxes! That’s why people visit BL right?

Who’s with me?


Give me Exemptions or give me death!

If you don't want to pay your sales taxes to the great state of Massachusetts
then I suggest you use your democratic rights to elect legislators who will change
the law.
Or, you could move to a different jurisdiction that doesn't charge sales
tax.

I heard the Bahamas are pleasant this time of year.

Sand + LEGO equals scratches.

I can't argue with that logic, ha ha.

The trick there, is that IC only supports PP and Stripe. You can't do IBAN
with IC and collect the sales tax.

Nita Rae

Is IBAN an onsite payment method?

Jen

It is possible in theory to incorporate IBAN into an onsite solution, but apparently
it is very difficult and potentially unstable. So we consider IBAN to be offsite
only.
