| I've searched lots of different ways for this this time and I can't find
it. It has the lego logo on all of the studs but I can't find it. I'm
probably just missing it.
Thanks!

| There are differing views on this but I always wait until I believe the buyer
is happy with the order, most probably post after shipping, some like myself
choose to wait.

So do you tend to leave feedback after the buyer has left feedback? So far I've
always left feedback as soon as I have shipped the order.
| If you get no response on status or feedback at all, you just have to accept
it and let it go.

| Hi all,
I'm sure this has probably happened to most sellers so any advice is appreciated.
A little over a week ago I sent an order to a new Bricklink user, their first
ever order was at my store and they haven't placed one since. However since
I sent the order they haven't updated the status to complete, although it
should have arrived by now. As a seller I can update the order status to complete
myself, although I feel that this is wrong.
Is it common for buyers (especially new buyers) to never update the order status,
or take extra long to do so? If so is there anything I can do to prompt them
other than message them? I have messaged this buyer but he hasn't gotten
back to me for a few days.
It's not a massive problem, it just annoys me a little as it looks untidy
with the rest of my completed orders lol.
Also I had another buyer (also new to Bricklink) who updated the status to complete
but never left feedback. Again is this a common occurrence?
Many thanks, and enjoy your evening, Stan.

| Having struggled to cope with long distance house hunting, now made an offer,
selling a property, under offer , crazy work conditions, caring, running a BL
store and changing jobs it's now evident that something has to give.
I've decided that my store will remain closed indefinitely, almost certainly
until 2022, anything outstanding will be shipped and one order on hold will be
invoiced and shipped when requested by buyer.
If I understand correctly, I have to be active in my store from time to time
to prevent my listings from being deleted, please advise if this is correct and/or
whatever else I need to do.
I'll still be active on the forum and may still purchase anything of interest
that may turn up.
Hope to add large number of items when I reopen.
Packing unlisted stock into moving boxes, can't believe how many I've
used and nowhere near finished.
Here's to a more settled 2022 and finally a less stressful job, cheers everyone.
Stuart

Extremely cool! The marbling is barely there, but let me know if you'd like
to trade anything for a Cylinder 3 x 3 x 5 with Handle!

I would, but unfortunately I only collect 2x4’s, but don’t tell anyone

| Nah!
Much better as is.

| I imagine I'm not the only one to be aware of this grammar mistake. When
searching a store's inventory, there's a drop-down menu that says "All
Filters." Once it's been expanded, it can be minimized by clicking "Less
Filters."
Properly, in English grammar, when there is a countable noun, we do not use the
quantitative adjective "less". That's flat-out wrong. We must say "fewer".
We can say "less milk," but not "less cookies." We must say "fewer cookies."
So here, English grammar demands that we say "Fewer Filters."
I do think that correcting this error will enhance the site's professionalism.

| I organise my stock by colour, sub divided by categories for used, soon to do
the same with new, works for me.
Only manually add used stock and odd new items, most new by auto part out, reuse
larger boxes for shipping but I buy new large letter boxes in two sizes.
Had to add minimum order value due to far too many low value orders that I was
losing money on.
I add everything, who knows what might bring a buyer to my store.

| What is your BrickLink rule of thumb to organizing inventory and pulling orders?
I've heard that sorting by parts not color is a good one. Another is cutting/taping
your own boxes to save on shipping. And a lot of pros and cons to setting a minimum
price/lots. My sub-query would be; are there any slow sellers that you
leave in the odd parts bin, or push to the end of the queue (of listing parts)?
Lastly, is BrickStock worth it or is Rebrickable a nice alternative?
Thanks,
cycbuild
