| Hi
I don't know if this had been on this forum before, but I really get irritated
by the fact that there is a default shipping (and payment) method preset.
Over and over buyers select the wrong shipping method because this is the default
option. So order a small object for 12 euro and choose parcel track&trace @ 32,50
for shipping. This means I first have to ask them if this is really the option
they want, wait for their answer, correct shipping method etc.
Or in a less extreme example send out the invoice and get buyers who are upset
about the high shipping costs.
Today at least 5 out of ten orders have what looks a not quite logical shipping
method chosen by the buyer. If I make another method default it won't change
this, buyers will select letter untracked for a 2 kg worth 200 euro shipping.
Maybe I do something wrong, so first let me ask if there is a method to let buyers
FORCE to make a choice about shipping (and payment!!) and if this is not possible
PLEASE make it possible to sellers NOT to have the default shipping and payment
method pre-selected in their shop.
As a buyer I also sometimes make the mistake to click to fast and bypass the
option to change the shipping and payment methods. So I understand this happens
and I don't blame my buyers. (but the system...)
So it will be much less frustration for both buyer and seller.
Sorry if this is a silly question for which there is a simple solution, and so
there will be one thanks for telling me how I should change the setting.

| Hi
is in Wheels - Accessory --- totally understandable
is in Wheels.
It states its a holder, it won't move on its own !! Its not a wheel !!
Should it not be considered in the next batch of items to be moved, and move
it to Wheels Accessories
Thanks

| I have several wanted lists with separated between a few different purposes and
I would like to be able to search in a subset of them, the same way it's
possible to select all or only some wanted lists in the Buy page.

It's in the "New" category, the "Classic" is a little rough for me.

Example for item name:

- In wanted lists, "Plate 1 x 10" will appear before "Plate 1 x 8" (strict alphabetical
order)
- In order lists, "Plate 1 x 8" will appear before "Plate 1 x 12" (correct numerical
order)

Given a "Reddish Brown" part and a "Pearl Gold" part:
- In wanted lists, the "Reddish Brown" part will appear before the "Pearl Gold"
part (plain colors first like in color selection drop down lists)
- In order lists, the "Pearl Gold" part will appear before the "Reddish Brown"
part (strict alphabetical order)
Now, I don't mind either of these couple of ordering (although I have a personal
preference for correct numerical order for item names and plain colors first)
but I'd like for both ordering to be consistent across the whole BrickLink
website.
Thank you for your consideration!

| | I'd really like the see the order total in my Wanted search results. One
store may charge $20 for the parts I need, the one next to it charges $0.20.
I could save a lot of clicking and time by knowing which stores are not worth
clicking on. Sorting by price should come with this. Thanks!

The "Auto-select" feature takes care of this pretty well. It's not perfect
though, you still have to go through every single suggested cart to make sure
that you aren't overpaying for a specific part, but otherwise I've been
pretty happy with it.

| | If you have multiple wishlists, some older, some newer, some ordered, some not,
it may be difficult to remember what you still need to order. So I'd suggest
a checkbox or something inside a wishlist to mark a whole list or individual
parts as "ordered". They wouldn't appear in your wanted part listing, so
you'd see what parts you're actually still missing.
|
The Apply Order function, kind of, already does that.
It changes the Have quantities in the Wantlist(s).
|
The keyword is "kind of". The only moment it makes sense to use this feature
is when you receive an order and confirmed it is complete. However between the
ordering and its completion, there can be several weeks during which the wanted
list is still missing parts that have been ordered but are in transit.
And if an order isn't complete for whatever reason, this feature becomes
useless.

In the wanted list search filters "More Options", you can check the box "Hide
Items if Have Qty is ≥ Want Qty" which then only shows you the items you are
missing.
