Ah - then I'll just note that the BL sales tax includes all applicable sales
taxes, including county/municipality.

And Texas does levy sales taxes on shipping and delivery:

After all of these replies you have to start wondering why they call it PERMANENT
marker.

Indeed

Apparently, it mostly means the ink is waterproof: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_marker
(there’s also a “Removal” section in the article).
I guess it’s why marketers are paid the big bucks.

I noticed on several of my orders that while the sales tax on the order information
page says "Texas Sales Tax", the rate is higher than the maximum Texas sales
tax including all applicable local taxes. The effective tax charged approaches
1% too much. If the intent is to charge only state sales tax (excluding county
and city), then the charges approach a 3% overage.

Is this a mistake or if not, what is the rationale for the overcharge?

The sales tax does indeed differ according to county/municipality.

I have had success using a dry-erase marker over the permanent marker - test
it out first on a brick or something you don't care about to see if it
works on these small parts. You color over the perm. marker with the dry erase
marker (like a big circle) so all is covered and then wipe with a cleaning wipe
(Clorox or Lysol) or a damp paper towel.

So maybe the discount will go even higher if they don't get any orders in

Maybe it would be better to not advertise a sale daily!

I have discovered that 7 outgoing orders have possibly been stolen from my residential
mailbox. I have security, but the camera doesn't cover the mailbox area.
One customer in-particular is being very belligerent about not receiving his
order (over 400 pieces!).

I will have taken a big hit to my bottom line by the theft of those 7 orders,
and through no fault of my own, should I have to be the brunt of negative feedback?
He's already filing for a refund through PayPal, which is his right. What
are my options in this case?

I'm certainly not doing anymore business through my residential mailbox!!
I'll drive out of my way to go to the PO from now on!

I experienced this about six years ago when using a nearby drop box (it was a
standalone USPS box a few blocks from my house)... I had 4 packages go missing
(no scan, nothing; like they just disappeared)... after a few weeks of communicating
with each Buyer about whatever status I had at the moment, I decided it would
be best to just accept the loss and issue them each a full refund for the orders
(even though the orders totaled over $200), I felt strongly that I couldn't
punish them for packages going missing or being stolen (and I know I'd appreciate
the gesture if I was in the Buyers' shoes)... which in many ways turned out
for the better, because each of those Buyers has been a repeat Buyer multiple
times in the years since...

It was only a few months after I had issued the refunds that I found out that
the particular drop box I had been using was consistently being broken in to
and I was lucky that I only had 4 packages go missing in the 2+ years I'd
been using it... and it was just over a year after that experience that the USPS
decided to simply remove that drop box permanently (I'm guessing too many
complaints about stolen packages), and I have been dropping off my packages at
the Post Office ever since with none going missing...

Life is Good.

One other tip for sellers, always ask for a receipt when taking packages to the
Post Office. I once had a package's tracking glitch and keep showing as "USPS
Awaiting Item". If you have the receipt for PayPal, then it proves that the package
was in, or was lost while in the hands of the USPS. It is sad the lengths people
will go through to try to rob someone of something...

If you have more than 5 outgoing packages, the mail carrier is not supposed to

you have more than 5. Once they get them back to the post office, they will not
be scanned there either. They should begin appearing on tracking once they pass
thru an NDC sorter.

You have two options, one is to generate all your postage using PayPal Multi-Order
Shipping, and generate a SCAN form. The mail carrier will scan the SCAN form,
and then click YES, the number of packages is correct. Doing the SCAN form indirectly
causes all the packages to be acceptance scanned. The other option is to take
them to the post office, and ask a retail counter clerk to do a 'Pre-Paid
Acceptance Scan'.

This is great information, I never understood the purpose of a scan form until

Looks to me that when Lego printed the tile the print was off.

You can likely request a replacement tile from Lego if it is a new set.

Also hold on to the mis-printed tile. Misprinted items can sometimes be worth
more money. (Although for a tile likely not)

Hairspray works wonders on permanent ink. Try it on a printed part you don't
want first though - just to make sure it doesn't pull off the print or damage
the piece.

Hello! I have a couple of these heads, one from pi064 probably (Harbor Sentry).
The thing is that the pattern looks brown, not dark red, and it's solid stud.
In the inventory it doesn't refer to any mf, any suggestion?
Could that be a mistake in the inventory?
Thanks!

Minifig No: pi064 Name: Imperial Soldier - Harbor Sentry

pi064 (Inv) Imperial Soldier - Harbor Sentry
Minifigures: Pirates: Pirates I: Imperial Soldiers

See the inventory note at the bottom of the inventory:
"Early copies of this minifigure would have had a solid stud head."

(This is a workaround as minifigure inventories cannot have alternate parts.)

And there is also a note on this entry regarding the color:

3626bpb0025 Minifigure, Head Standard Grin with Dark Red Messy Hair, Moustache, and Vertical Lines Beard Pattern - Blocked Open Stud
Parts: Minifigure, Head

"The pattern color on this head varies from brown to dark red as can be seen
in the additional images."

Solid vs other studs is a mess, as they were handled badly in the past. Colours
may well be off too, as printing over other colours depends on the base colour.
If listing as part of a minifig, just note the stud type in your description.

Presumably it is this head:

3626apb05 Minifigure, Head Standard Grin with Dark Red Messy Hair, Moustache, and Vertical Lines Beard Pattern - Solid Stud
Parts: Minifigure, Head

And this minifigure:

pi064 (Inv) Imperial Soldier - Harbor Sentry
Minifigures: Pirates: Pirates I: Imperial Soldiers

Note the inventory page for that minifigure even states "Early copies of this
minifigure would have had a solid stud head." Minifigures cannot have alternative
parts, and so the solid stud version does not appear in any minifigures.

As well as chain mail, if you are looking for similar designs it is also worth
searching scale mail and plate mail as these can be very similar. And due to
the new BF legs, chainmail as one word too.

Hopefully you also have notified local police and the USPS. Porch Pirates unfortunately
have learned that there's a lot of Ring doorbells out there, and cameras....if
your packages are going missing from a mailbox, my bet is your neighbors also
are missing / losing stuff, and maybe they have camera footage or filed complaints
as well.

I guess you can't just reship a new order, and maybe give the buyer a courtesy
coupon or something, and hope down the line some thief is caught with a bunch
of Legos?

What's somewhat puzzling to me is taking a package from a porch is pretty
much everywhere petty theft, but taking something out of a mailbox is a federal
level offense

Imagine 2 guys in federal prison. One says "how much time are you doing?" answer:
"10 years". first guy "so am I...I assaulted a federal agent...what did you do?"
other guy: "stole some Legos from a mailbox"

Yes - go to your inventory, on the column on the right hand side that is headed
'search my inventory' - press the 'show more items' - first box
is 'items on my wanted list'. check the box and then press the go button.

Nice, thank you. That searches all lists though, right? Is there a way to search
for one specific wanted list as I have multiple?

You can just go to your store, then switch to the Wanted List tab, just like
you might at any other store. You can't buy from your own store, but the
Wanted List section still works fine, and you can filter by list there.
