It's possible the order is too big or too small for whatever parameters you
have on the shipping method

You don't give any specifics so it's hard to say what the problem is.
I assume you mean the buyer cannot check out. If they are a newbie buyer or you
have international shipping as manual , you have to remove the "require all new
buyers to use Instant Checkout. " - as in un-check the box on the management
page of your account. Also if the program you are using to ship does not have
Qatar in its options, then there may be restrictions (either from Qatar or the
US ).

Just look at the reaction to the failed designer programme launch for your answer.
A number of those who didn't secure their beloved castle set ranted that
"scalpers" had hoovered up the sets to resell at a profit. An interesting accusation
to post on a site dedicated to buying Lego from resellers. When does Bricklinking
become scalping? It would appear when the seller is selling something the buyer
wants for more than the buyer expected to pay.

Since being on here I've got the impression that what started as a site for
hobby buyers from hobby sellers is being increasingly used by those looking to
make a living from Lego selling. Maybe that's what's driving the angst,
hobby players upset at the commercialism of the toy, rare sets, quick sell outs
of new sets, increasing prices of popular classic sets etc.

Once the pandemic is truly over I'm sure there will be many closures of recently
opened stores and "normality" will resume.

I'm part of several non-BL Lego groups such as some of the FaceBook AFOL
groups plus some groups that are local to me (in the UK). I've noticed that
there is a range of opinions on people who sell / resell Lego and that (strangely,
IMO) some opinions can be vehemently negative. This can range from the odd comment
about how resellers are missing the "point" of Lego (i.e. it's a toy, it
shouldn't be resold for profit) to some downright nasty comments about me
being a "scalping scumbag" and that I'm "ruining the hobby, driving up prices,
taking food out of children's mouths" etc (not kidding about that last one!)

Tbh I'm never that bothered about any negativity as I'm sure you get
it everywhere, but I do think it's strange in that I guess people just misunderstand
how the market works. I can only set my own prices and not the general market
value, so if I overprice my Lego it won't sell, and if I underprice it then
I wouldn't make any money so there would be less Lego available (as I'd
be out of the market).

I guess Lego does retain it's value well when resold so maybe people are
angry about this, but I don't know of any resellers that are raking it in
at other people's expenses. In fact for the hours we put in I'd say we
generally don't get paid all that well. Especially when I put in extra time
for customer service (making sure we're good/very good at all aspects of
what we do, it takes extra time for which we don't actually get paid).

Just wondering if anyone else has come across this sort of negativity and accusation
that we're all driving up prices and making Lego unaffordable for most people
(I'd actually argue the opposite is the case as we provide an alternative
to buying from Lego themselves who would basically have a monopoly if resellers
didn't exist!)
