| 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.

telling me and after it is gone they let me know and refund the pieces.
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

| | Rounded up a couple of parts that I can't seem to find. Really curious about
the black part with 4 2x2 plates hinged together, logo on the studs. Some of
the rest not Lego for sure but tossed them in when I still bother you for help
once again. The post "feels" Lego but can't find it, the gear-piece as well
but can't locate it.

| Hope you don’t mind me asking.
Was this a newer buyer or an established one ?

| | A buyer orders an order £25. 3 months later complaints 2 small items £3.50 each
item is missing. I can supply 2 more items but I know 100% they were in the order.
If I don’t re issue the parts the buyer demands a full order refund, and then
my 100% feedback will be ruined. What do I do ?? I have put the buyer on my stop
list.

It is indeed Lego, and quite uncommon, but does not belong to any particular
part.

Today we have promoted CEP member Paulvdb from Inventories Administrator to Catalog
Associate. Paul has done excellent work over the past couple years on the inventories
side of things, and we're very pleased he will now be trying his hand on
the catalog.

After another year, he will be eligible for promotion to the Catalog Administrator
position, which has privileges on both sides.
Please join me in congratulating Paul on this new appointment!

P.S. In case some of you were wondering, we ARE going to update the Hall of Fame.
We are developing a tool for that at the moment. Once it gets up and running,
we will be keeping everything right up to date.

| Many aren’t true sales but there are genuine examples.
I hate all these false ones but I don’t think it’s really possible to do anything
about it and I don’t think anyone should try.
Everyone is free to price things at whatever price and therefore free to discount
as they like, it’s a free market

| | Almost on a daily basis I see the most incredible Sales in the discussion forum.
20, 30, sometimes even 80% off. Weren't theses prices to high to begin with?
Who are we fooling? Should't we stop this? Would like to hear you thoughts.

Am I correct in saying that I don’t need to take any action, I don’t sell €10,000

enough.
I do have on-site payment.

So Lawrence at brickowl was able to deal with this and set it up so brickowl
takes the VAT required from sales and pays it to the relevant tax authorities
(just like Ebay, Etsy, displate, cgtrader) and I`m sure most other online sales
portals. But Bricklink once again has to be a little different.
I really want to rant about this, but what's the point. My trade has been
moving from BL to BO more over the past year anyway.

Still odd that this brick isn't in the Modified category...

It went unseen?
Or it’s (or was) considered a standard brick?
BTW, what’s the use of the hole? To pass a string through?

You need to check every minifigure that you find, in detail.

| | I went to my local flea market this week end and there is a new Lego knockoff
store now. Beautiful Mini figures mostly. After 10 minutes of my 5 kids shopping
and gathering $20 worth of stuff I noticed no "Lego" on anything or anywhere
in the store. Kind of made me mad so I asked the woman behind the counter about
it and was told they were not allowed by owner to mention the "L word" and they
had several stores and got most of the figures from China. The first 10 minutes
I was there she made no attempt to correct anyone that said Lego. She saw I was
upset and said "Mister I'm just trying to work and support my two kids".
I can't argue with that but am still mad after two days.
