|
| I've issued a partial refund through paypal, now on the Order page it shows
"Partial" and on the Manage Refund page it shows the amount as partial refund.
Is that all there is to it? Or should I do something more?
The Manage Refund page has a field to fill in the refund amount, should this
be done also?

| Admin,
Since my last nickname change, as a follow up on the announcement of nicknames
being synchronised with LEGO, logging on to BrickLink give a 404 Error i.e. this
page:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/error_404.page
After that it seems to work all right. I am logging on to this page:

Thx,

But what about the other vintage parts, like 6x10 plates that have no PN on the

vintage sets, wouldn't you need to select from vintage PN?

A PN does not constitute a structural difference to the part, so the presence
or absence of a PN does not result in a seperate catalog entry. Nor does the
'pat pend' text printed on many old vintage parts. (We have tried but
it was not accepted, and that's for the better as well it would create a
chaos in the catalog.)
Besides that, I think that many if not (almost) all vintage parts like these
are already in the catalog. I myself and a few other collectors have done a great
job some 10 years ago the add many vintage parts.

BrickLink is owned by LEGO, so they most likely already have access to all data

| Admin,
Thank you for this message. I've reserved the name 'leggodtshop'
with my LEGO account and also changed (already) the nickname of my BrickLink
account accordingly. Both were accepted! Thank you!
However, my store is named Leggodt.nl and when I tried to change that to Leggodtshop.nl
it was rejected. The name was not allowed to contain an imitation of the word
lego....... with respect to that it already does so what's the problem? LEGO
has by no means reserved the word Leggodt in any way, so why doe sBrickLink not
allow this?
So it seems there is some discrepancy in what is allowed and what not. Since
LEGO accepted my nickname and BrickLink too, would it be possible for BrickLink
to accept it as storename too?
Many thanks!
Paul

| | Dear BrickLink member,
We’ll be making some changes to the LEGO® Account system in 2023 that’ll make
things a bit easier for you and other BrickLink® members. We’re introducing a
universal LEGO nickname that will work in all online LEGO experiences, including
BrickLink. This means that your username on BrickLink will be the same as your
LEGO Account nickname. That way, you’ll only have to keep track of one nickname,
and it’ll be easier for others to follow you and enjoy your LEGO content.
Right now, we’re giving our BrickLink and LEGO Ideas members a chance to create
and reserve their preferred nickname before we open the service to other LEGO
account holders. If you already have a LEGO Account, we’ll ask you to do a quick
setup on that account by following the link below. All you must do is submit
your BrickLink username as your new LEGO Account nickname. That’s how we’ll make
sure you get the nickname you prefer, on BrickLink, LEGO Ideas and everywhere
else!
If you do not have an account already, follow the link below to create an account
and to select your own nickname.
We understand how important it is to you that other BrickLink members recognize
you on our site, so we encourage you to complete the nickname setup as soon as
you can.
There’s one more thing, though. For trademark and copyright reasons, nicknames
can’t contain words like “LEGO” or “BrickLink” We appreciate all our BrickLink
members, and we understand that changing your nickname isn’t necessarily something
you’d like to do. It’s all part of our work to provide our BrickLink members
with the best possible way to connect with the LEGO brand and each other, and
we hope you’ll feel the benefits of this going forward.
If you find your nickname is rejected for this reason, we encourage you to use
other words related to the LEGO brand like “brick” or “build.” See what fun and
personal combinations you can make!
Anyway, here’s what you need to do:
• Follow this link to log in to your LEGO Account or to create a new LEGO account
https://identity.lego.com/en-US/profile?returnUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bricklink.com%2F&clientid=0fd7ca3b-3a33-48e3-a747-8ec6f09557c1&appContext=false&adultexperience=true&hideheader=true&hideclosebutton=false&hideexternallogin=false&childsignupexperience=
• Click the Edit icon next to your avatar
• Choose your preferred nickname in the field
• Click Submit and wait a few seconds for your nickname to be approved
• That’s it! You’re all set!
Please select your preferred nickname by the 16th of January 2023. If you’re
not able to change it by this time, we’ll give you an auto-generated nickname.
PLEASE CHECK THESE GUIDELINES BEFORE SUBMITTING A NEW NICKNAME
A nickname...
• can be created in the languages available within a LEGO experience, e.g., LEGO.com
or LEGO Life.
• must be between 4-25 characters in length
• can contain both upper- and lower-case letters
• can be a mix of characters and numbers
• can include a maximum of 4 numbers
• can only include the following special signs: ‘.’ and/or ‘-‘and/or ‘_’
• can include spaces, but not two or more consecutive spaces
• can’t contain the LEGO wordmark including any variations that make it look
as if the name indicates an individual representing the LEGO Group
• can’t contain a LEGO franchise that is a trademark owned by the LEGO Group
• can’t contain a name from another intellectual property not owned by the LEGO
Group (example: Star Wars)
• can’t contain an email address or other contact info
• can’t contain references to other social platforms
• must adhere to the standard LEGO moderation guidelines including but not limited
to political or religious topics, drugs and alcohol, weapon references, hate
speech, profanities, violence, or abusive language

Quite normal and required for shipping. In these cases I use a pre-paid seperate

IMO that is taking a risk already. You won't be able to respond quickly to
orders giving buyers a reason upfront for complaining.

I have in my terms that I am not responsible for import tax and I am not lying

Import tax is always for the buyer, but often not expected. Not much to do about
that, buyers just have to pay it.

I came back from vacation on August 12th and immediately started packing the
order (all customers knew very clearly before ordering that I was not there and
from when I was going to ship), his shipments were sent on the 14th and with
2.5 weeks arrived. Now the customer had to pay import tax and indicates that
it is my fault because it arrived at the same time, and that it takes a very
long time etc (package has been sent to Ukraine and because of the war it just
takes a long time (I can't do much about it))
Now the customer started blackmailing me that I had to pay him €46 because this
is my fault (customer also buys EX VAT from me so already has 21% tax advantage
(€65 so more than €46).
|
Where is the blackmail? You exchanged negative feedback and that's all there
is to it. Bad luck, move on...
| |
This buyer also owns a shop on BL and I believe that these kinds of bad apples
should be removed.

This store has good feedback record. No bad apple at all.

Now I try to reach bricklink but get no response on form, feedback removal is

Used.. New... Complete... it's been discussed for years and over and over

Somewhere along the road someone stated a different approach which I quite like.
It is as follows.
Better to underpromise and overperform, than to overpromise and underperform.
Think about it. What will it do on the short term and long term? And what do

how would you describe your set in your shop?

I do have to disagree to some extent with that. if a brick has anything other

So.. and what is 'normal' 
There is no objective classification possible for used items.

It's said it's possible that rubber part like the truck tyre degrade
or melt into paste, is
it really that bad? I am living where in the summer the temperature could reach
35 degree cel outdoor.
How about the remote control for train? Will it have any problem after long term
storage?
Probably I am talking about after 10-20 years before I may open it for the first
time

On a similar note, do lego bricks still discolor if kept in the dark? Or is the
discoloration due to ultraviolet light?
|
Darkness is the perfect condition for avoiding discoloration as far as I know.
|
I don't know about that... lego is meant to be in the light to play with,
so the materials are chosen to be colorproof in the light not in the dark
Older parts I know of have been faded in the dark, white-greyish, blue-greenish,
but when I put them in the sunlight (behind the windowglass) the color comes
back to original. Hence "proving" my point above
