| Bad practice and not normal.
We all find that for some inexplicable reason a part is missing on occasions
but I for one always inform the buyer and try to source from someone else so
I don’t let anyone down.
I offer to cancel if they prefer or ask for a few days to source the missing
part/s at my expense.
Most buyers are happy to wait a few days so that the order is complete, they
don’t have to order from another seller and incur extra costs.

It didn't show as shipped or even packed so I asked that they cancel the
order within 4 minutes of being told and I get told sorry it is already shipped
and if I want to cancel to just reject it and when they get it back I will get
a refund.
Well it is on the other side of the world so that would be well over a month.
What a bad way to do business

This is not normal.
Unfortunately some sellers prefer fast shipment of the order over great service.

Hmm, yes, and neither is asking for more money once the package has shipped.
Maybe a dimensional issue the postal carrier noted when attempting delivery?
2lbs is not very heavy but maybe the box was oversized? Just throwing out guesses
here at this point. As far as being a buyer in this situation there is nothing
you should do, you paid, you got your item, the seller needs to look into this,
but obviously answer any questions they have if you can help.
I wouldn't think a reasonable seller would flat out just ask for more money.

If true, this is an unfortunate situation for the seller. However, it is the
seller's situation; not yours. Since you already paid the invoice (which
I assume included the seller's postage charge,) you are not bound to pay
any additional postage. Also the whole thing sounds hokey to me since delivering
to a garage is generally not something approved by the postmaster general, and
charging extra for it is quite odd. Maybe your address was confused with someone
else's by the USPS?

It's probably a USPS error - errors aren't common, but neither are they
completely unknown - although I have to say I've not heard of this one before.
Typically a First Class parcel gets misidentified as Priority Mail and then USPS
charges the sender for it (this can be appealed). The sender (the seller) should
definitely appeal, but I don't see how the buyer could be held responsible
for it. Of course you should help the seller out with whatever information he
might need for the appeal.

Do you still have the packing box, with the label on it ? My guess is that the
shipper either under quoted the weight, or possibly did not take into account
the package might be dimensional. What set, or sets, were inside the package
?

There should be a resolution process somewhere for your seller to appeal to.
Reply back kindly that the notice is inaccurate and share with them as much information
and documentation as you can so they can fight it. Lots of technical problems

A seller should inform the buyer as soon as possible, preferably before sending
the parcel.
Presumably you mean buyer though. In that case, no formal timescale is set. BL
keeps order details for six months and disputes at PayPal need to be opened within
six months.

Hi sorry, yes I meant buyer. This buyer is obviously contacting different sellers
today and it seems ridiculous that he can make a claim for an order from 3 months+
ago? If the parcel was missing, I would only have something like a 45 day window
to claim with the Royal Mail so surely something similar should apply?
Thanks for your help

Yes, that is what happens. When payment is made the buyer is charged the VAT
amount (or, if in the USA, the sales tax amount) in addition to the order total.
That amount is then removed from the PayPal payment as the "partner fee"

Thanks for the reply. I had a thought that it was 3 months but just looking on
PayPal it says “you have 45 days to file a dispute”. Either way this particular
order is from April so I think the 3 months would be up anyway.

by the sprue in the inventory because they are not together.
But a Sealed New set would have the sprue, not the 3 separate parts.
And a Used set only needs the one that’s in the minifigure.
These plumes are a pain for the catalogue.
The problem is the catalogue “only” describes what’s in a set (what TLG put there),
it’s not here to explain what should be in an item for sale on BL, either New
or Used.
As Yorbrick said, “what’s needed to build the set” is not in the catalogue… but
it’s what BL want you to sell when you sell a set. So people use the inventory…
with “known” exceptions.
|
This is where the catalogue rules beats common sense. The inventory is no longer
what a customer can necessarily expect to get when they purchase a (used) because
those "extra", unnecessary for the build parts are not extras but regular parts.
Just because they happened to be supplied on a sprue with the necessary parts
and not removed before distribution.

The set in question originally came with three plumes on a single sprue, but
only one of those plumes was actually used in the building of the set:
[P=4502c01,1]

And the plume that’s used is used in a minifigure, so the 3 parts can’t be replaced
by the sprue in the inventory because they are not together.
But a Sealed New set would have the sprue, not the 3 separate parts.
And a Used set only needs the one that’s in the minifigure.
These plumes are a pain for the catalogue.

There was once the idea of moving the figs to the counterpart section, and putting
in the set inventory actually what was inside the set.

The problem is the catalogue “only” describes what’s in a set (what TLG put there),
it’s not here to explain what should be in an item for sale on BL, either New
or Used.
As Yorbrick said, “what’s needed to build the set” is not in the catalogue… but
it’s what BL want you to sell when you sell a set. So people use the inventory…
with “known” exceptions.

The set in question originally came with three plumes on a single sprue, but
only one of those plumes was actually used in the building of the set:
[P=4502c01,1]

And the plume that’s used is used in a minifigure, so the 3 parts can’t be replaced
by the sprue in the inventory because they are not together.
But a Sealed New set would have the sprue, not the 3 separate parts.
And a Used set only needs the one that’s in the minifigure.
These plumes are a pain for the catalogue.
The problem is the catalogue “only” describes what’s in a set (what TLG put there),

Please notice this paragraph:
Complete - Set contains all parts necessary to build all of the models
(including alternate models) in the instructions but does not have to contain
the original box/packaging and/or extra parts. If the set is missing instructions,
the description must state so. If the set did not come with instructions then
the set should include all parts listed in the picture inventory which is located
on the box or bucket. The set must include all original stickers used on the
model either still on the sticker sheet or applied.
This is what defines a complete used set from the administration's perspective.
It is not defined by the regular itmes section of the BrickLink set inventory.
So for example, if someone reports your used complete listing as a violation:
we will not remove it simply because it is missing the two plumes that are not
used in the build:

You're making things too complicated for me to understand. I just need a
simple answer. All I need to know is, can I just use the "Regular Items" section
of the Set Inventory to build a complete set and then sell it on your platform
or not? Or do I need to refer to some other inventory list to complete the set?
I don't get the example you just gave me. Those two items, 4502a and 4502c
are listed as regular items. Why would I not include them when building that
particular set? Are you telling me that there are parts in Regular Items that
are not used in any of the models? Then why would they be listed as regular items
at all?

That makes some sense. I wonder if I can find any takers now. Time to dig through
all my old minifigs and catalog them!

| Hello,
I just started going through some old Lego stuff, and I happened to find a couple
minifigs for INSANE prices.
I saw one shop selling Watto sw0038 (new) for $300?! The lowest I saw for it
was around $50.
Does anyone out there actually want these?

Are they secretly filled with unicorn blood?
How does the market value work? Is there a weird demand for these? I mean...
I didn't even know the other thing was called Beedo sw0979. Fifty bucks for
that, too?
Someone help me understand.
Also, happy to sell/trade!

Too many people, with too much money to spend, who all want the same vintage
items.
Next question ?

Don’t think this sticker, if Lego, belongs on this part.
Any ideas ?

I think you're right, it's not in the catalogue.
