these are the numbers

Part color code 6020074 refers to
in bright light orange. I'm not sure what 41733332 refers to. Searching the
BrickLink catalog turns up nothing.

| | Hello,
28th of May I ordered at this shop, the same day I received the invoice and I
paid immediately. And status changed automatically to ready.
But 31st of May they closed the shop, there was no reason given, nor an end date
of closure. So how do I know if my order will be send to me?
|
Sellers occasionally close their shop to catch up on orders or for other reasons.
I wouldn't be too worried. Has the seller shipped the order yet? It's
been more than two weeks. If not, I would send them a message.

Okay, in all seriousness:
Lucky find! I don't know about the figure.

Been there done that.  Unfortunately, that's not really the way things
work around here. As Jen said, most stores here are run by individuals in their
own spare time, not large corporations with paid employees like the LEGO Group.
So, a cancelled order and the labor associated with it is much more costly to
a BrickLink store than say, TLG or Amazon. In fact, section 7.1 of the Terms
of Service explicitly states that no longer wanting the items is not a valid
reason to cancel an order, except where local law allows. I'm not sure what
the law is for Canada: https://www.bricklink.com/v3/terms_of_service.page

| | Hi everyone,
We had a buyer leave us great and positive written feedback, but accidentally
chose "neutral" instead of "positive" feedback as the radio button. They are
a first time buyer. Any way to modify this to be a positive?
We contacted the seller and they confirmed it was an accident, but this affects
the store and would like it changed.
Thanks!

This is the reason that I am personally in favor of eliminating the neutral feedback
option. I think that many new BrickLink users do not understand the connotation
of non-positive feedback on BrickLink and/or post neutral feedback by mistake.
I have seen neutral feedback that says things like "got exactly what I ordered".

| | I’ve never sold a used set before, and could use some advice.
I just scored Hogwarts Castle (4842) at a yard sale, and put it together only
to discover that it’s missing a few pieces (mostly basic stuff, but also two
of the owls, a rat, and some roof pieces) and half the minifigs (missing Harry,
Hermione, Voldemort, and the dementors), plus a few pieces broke during assembly
(which is a new one for me, I’d never seen a 2x8 plate snap)... I kept a list
of what I’m missing, but am not sure what to do with it. Is it better to try
to buy replacements for all the missing/broken parts, or to sell it as-is with
a list of what’s missing? And should I leave it assembled when I sell it?
Thanks!

Nice find!
Some enjoy completing sets, but if you're just looking to get the most bang
for your buck, then you'll have to do a bit of analysis. How much did you
buy it for? Make a wanted list with all of the missing pieces and play around
with the Easy Buy/Buy All page to get an idea of how much it would cost to complete
the set. Then look at some of the used listings and try to determine whether
or not it would be worth it to complete the set or sell it as is. And I would
definitely disassemble the set before you ship it; I have never had anyone try
to ship me a used set assembled before (except for stickered assemblies, of course).
I hope that helps!

| | Thank you for your reply.
Well, I found that menu, but at least it does not act on "easy buy", but this
is, what you mentioned already. The instant checkout is also ineffective. I am
surprised, that "easy buy" is so inconvenient or nobody likes to use this
quite good function.
Best regards and thank you for your support.

Hello Joerg,
The problem with the "Easy Buy" function is that there are no filters/parameters.
All you can do is click "Easy Buy" and it selects stores for you, from anywhere
in the world and regardless of whether or not the store offers instant checkout.
This makes the feature quite useless in my opinion. However, the wanted list
buy page that SylvainLS mentioned is essentially the same thing if you use the
"Auto-Select" feature, but it allows you filter stores by location, whether or
not they accept instant checkout, etc. This is much more useful in my opinion.
As a side note, the instant checkout filter will filter out stores that do not
accept instant checkout, but that does not necessarily mean that you will actually
be able to check out with instant checkout. For example, I used to have a weight
limit of 16 ounces for instant checkout orders, so my store would show up in
the list if you applied the instant checkout filter, but if your order was over
16 ounces, shipping would show up as TBD and you would not be able to use instant
checkout. Other stores only offer instant checkout for orders under/over a certain
value or only to certain countries.

And you replied explaining about Store Filters and "Instant checkout". Well,
this is a perfect answer I guess and would support also my issue I have with
"Easy Buy". But even checking for weeks the "My BL", I do not have any clue where
to find such entry. Would you be so kind to explain, where I can find this entry?

The filters are on the Buy page: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/wanted/buy.page
, the link is in the Want menu / heart-shaped icon on every page, or if you click
Buy when looking at a Wanted List (not EasyBuy on the list of Wanted Lists).
You’ll need to click the “Expand” link next to the phrase “Store Filters” to
see those filters.
See this help page https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2445 it has pictures
and explanation for the basics.
Feel free to explore and click here and there, nothing bad will happen 
And, of course, come back here if you have any other question.
