Hello!
Is there any way I can get Lego bricks a certain color that doesn’t exist on
the catalog? Like, can I message Lego? Or do I just need to paint the piece?
Any help is appreciated.

Btw, I know that “selling modified bricks” is against tos, and so is selling
the “test bricks” so don’t start jumping all over me. I just want to know if
there is a way FOR MY PERSONAL MOCS.

Thanks again! 😊

Indeed. The distinction between wants and needs is rather arbitrary.

I’m a software developer so I do know. There are lots of options as russel said.
I think the problem is not difficulty, but lack of dev resource.

The most I have ever seen them send is 6 messages per account. Then the bot makes
a new account and sends out 6 more.

Would it be possible to block any messages containing key words such as "everythingeshop"
the same way we block SMS in mobile phones?

There are several solutions we are considering - we will see what works.

You have to buy something before you can upgrade to a seller account. It can
be something small, perhaps a single minifigure.

I think they already do that but many accounts are being opened with each one
only sending a few messages out.

When I wanted my first positive feedback for selling, I reached out to the seller,
and they gave me feedback the same day.
There are many sellers here who would appreciate your purchase and leave positive
feedback for you. All you have to do is ask.

In order to get feedback, you have to make a purchase. bricklink is mainly for
selling individual parts and pieces and sets so if you just are trying to sell
a whole bunch of bulk a local marketplace may be better

Most of the inventory is 40% off! If it is not 40% off then it is 20% and minifigures
are 5%. We have over 1,000 lots in the store, new and used parts and minifigures.

Yes, we got it too and they referenced our series 15 minifigures. I'm surprised
they're actually taking time to look at the sellers' stores and slightly
customize each email.

  Good morning-

I just received an updated terms and policy agreement from PayPal. I noticed
this:
-U.S. business accounts will not be able to receive personal transactions from
PayPal accounts outside the U.S. starting October 31, 2022.
-U.S. PayPal accounts will not be able to send personal transactions to business
accounts outside the U.S. starting October 31, 2022.

Now, I rarely purchase internationally and I don't sell, so this is probably
moot to me. But: could this have larger implications for others on BrickLink?

I did look through the archive to see if anyone else had brought this up, but
didn't readily see anything. Forgive me if it is a duplicate post.

Just curious-
David

If by "personal transactions" they mean when someone sends money through the
Friends and Family method, then I think it will be fine.

Also David

Based on what I could find, this is what they mean:

"Paypal, the fintech conglomerate headquartered in Sunny city of San Jose in
California, defines 'Personal Payments' as transactions between friends
and family. Money transfer, when initiated through the 'Friends and family'
tab under the 'Send Money' option, is counted under such transactions."

This is where having sticky threads by admin would work. If they made one sticky
post about it with the name in the title, then all tge rest could be removed.
I find it a bit odd that someone gets it then reposts it without searching to
see if it was recently posted about, but that happens on all forums.

Ik ben van mening dat in dit geval het niet terugbetalen van de verzendkosten
fair en redelijk is.

In de toekomst ga je best voor de verzending na of de koper goed beseft dat het
een ophaalpunt betreft en dat jullie samen het juiste ophaalpunt bepalen.
Ik volg zelf ook de tracking en als de koper het niet ophaalt, contacteer ik
hem zelf om aan te manen om op te halen. Soms komen de mails van de logistieke
partij niet goed aan, heb ik al gemerkt.

O wow thats so simple and obvious lol. Thanks I guess combine that with a
bold disclaimer in Terms explaining the policy so if anyone gets confused when
directed to invoice instead of instant.

Maybe even put it in my seller description of the manuals themselves to prevent
sour feelings if someone makes a whole cart before reading the terms.

You rock!

  Hello seller community!!

My store is growing thanks so much in no small part to the tips and help from
experienced sellers on this forum.

Your time in guiding newbies like me is appreciated so much!

Now, my question if anyone can help is this:

I would like to offer a free shipping threshold, starting on a pretty high end,
but I am fearful to do so since I have a lot of instruction manuals for sale.

I enjoy providing the service of selling these even if it doesn't really
ever make me anything lol. But if it were to cost me I would not like that.

SO is there a way to exclude items from a free shipping on orders above $x$ while
still using instant checkout?

Any wisdom on this matter would be helpful!

Beste BrickLinkers,

Ik heb nu voor de tweede keer hetzelfde probleem en vraag me af hoe ik dit in
de toekomst kan voorkomen?

Koper kiest voor goedkopere verzending naar DHL ServicePoint, maar haalt het
pakketje niet op. Het pakketje blijft zo'n week liggen en koper ontvangt
intussen verschillende e-mailtjes van DHL met de oproep om het pakket op te komen
halen. Uiteindelijk stuurt DHL het pakketje retour afzender.

In beide gevallen ging het om geen Nederlands en gebrekkig Engels sprekende buitenlanders,
die het pakketje naar het huisadres van een vriend in Nederland wilden sturen,
maar (per ongeluk, door de taalbarrière?) voor het ServicePoint kozen.

Ben ik in zo'n geval verplicht om het volledige bedrag te vergoeden? Beide
keren heb ik namelijk wel het bedrag voor de items, maar niet de verzendkosten
teruggestort. Is het inderdaad de verantwoording van de koper om het pakket af
te (laten) halen, of valt dit onder mijn verantwoording als verkoper?

Alleen nog verzending naar huisadres aanbieden helpt niet 100%, denk ik. Want
bij niet thuis en geen buren die het pakket aan willen nemen, brengt DHL het
pakket alsnog naar het ServicePoint.

Met vriendelijke groet,
Marianne

That isn't a big problem since I work from home but to get packages shipped
off, I have been relying on pickup requests through PirateShip.

I had several packages picked up a few days ago but one of them still says that
USPS is awaiting the item. I'm not sure if I should have asked the buyer
if they wanted a refund, but I really don't want to keep someone waiting
for a package that'll never arrive. I guess I take the loss out of a desire
to keep people happy.

Really disappoints me since it was a $30 parts order after shipping.

Like others have noted, it is too early to start being concerned. I have, in
the past, had packages that only got scanned once they were delivered. I now
walk to the post office to have my packages scanned at the counter, and it shows
up a few minutes later.

If you rely on pickup, you can print a SCAN (Shipment Confirmation Acceptance
Notices) form for your carrier when they do the pickup, they should scan it when
they do the pickup. This form is on the ship tab in pirateship under the "End
of Day" button.

A few days isn't nearly enough to start really worrying. Start worrying if
it's like 2 weeks or more.

Maybe it was just not scanned correctly.  It will be scanned later… maybe only
at delivery.  According to many threads here, it happens a lot.
