Are they for sure lego slopes? If so, it might be a custom sticker.

Yep, definitely lego.

It's currently not in the BL inventory. You can add it to the catolog to
help.

  Hello,

Need an advise/inspiration from you veterans, but firstly id like to quickly
describe how I operate my BL store:

-Ive reached almost 20,000 parts on my Bricklink store.
-I sell used parts.
-All my parts are stored in zip lock bags that are numbered U0001 to U0870. (I
live in a small apartment. No space for drawers.)
-I don't use Brickstore or any other "extensions". Purely Bricklink.

Since starting in March, my order of actions to list were:

1. Wash.
2. Sort into colours.
3. Sort one colour (for example white) into types and put 3-5 different lots
into 1 zip lock bag (many bags).
4. Start listing on Bricklink.
Take zip lock bag, assign "location" number on it (for example U0751),
list parts from the bag to bricklink. Repeat listing process until all parts
of one colour are listed to BL.
5. Sort different colour into types and process repeats.


I now have listed most of my parts to Bricklink. It is time to add parts to
existing listings and "locations".


Order of actions:
1. Wash
2. Sort into colours.
3. Sort one colour into types and put 3-5 different lots into 1 zip lock bag
(many bags).
4. Start listing on Bricklink.
Take zip lock bag, assign "location" number on it, list parts from
the bag to bricklink. If part is aleardy in my store inventory, then I increase
amount of items in BL, put those parts with the rest of its lot. If part is not
in my store I add it as usual. Repeat listing process until all parts of one
colour are listed to BL.
5. Sort different colour into types and process repeats.

And that's where I need your advise. Is there any smarter way to speed up
this process? Maybe I should sort everything into types and forget about colours?

How do you add more parts to existing listings?
Can you give me any advise to make my sorting/listing process bit quicker/more
efficient?

Thank You in advance.

(Hopefully i make sense with my long post. I myself not quite sure how to explain
everything properly or what do i even want to ask you guys Just need some
enlightenment)

The one thing that I've learn (and wish I did differently myself) is the
way that I store my parts. As with most I originally sorted by color and when
I loaded my bins though that it would be ok to have similar parts of the same
color as they would be easy to tell apart. What I've found from washing
and sorting other used lots over time is that it is much better to sort by part
type and store with mixed colors of the same part. It's a lot easier to
load into BL because once you add a part, you can click the link to add same
part in a new color an only have to update the color an price and secondly, you
can reduce your storage by sharing the same drawer or bag for multiple parts
of different colors because when you go to pull the order, it's much easier
to see a color you want in a mixed lot then a part mixed with similar colors.

When I'm adding new parts that are already in my inventory, I always add
everything to a Stockroom and then use the BL inventory search to see if I have
and duplicate parts entries. This makes it easy to find what is already stored
and then I can just pull that bin, update the quantity and it's ready to
sell.

  there is a block in the left corner of my store saying seller dosent support
orders shipping to my state havent changed anything on my shipping settings any
ideas but7 next to the feedback brick it days it does any ideas have had people
contact me bout shipping i feel its costing me sales

You don't have an onsite payment method so BL is not able to collect taxes.
Additionally, I would review and revise your "Returns" and "Insurance"
notes on your Terms page. Insurance is to protect the seller incase the shipping
company loses or damages the product in shipment, not for the buyer. Additionally,
if you don't provide a refund or replacement for damaged product, I would
expect buyer would just file a Paypal claim which you would definitely lose.
Your responsibility as a seller is to make sure the buyer gets the product that
they purchased.

  Hi,
going from EU to USA for a couple of weeks.
Would like to get some local pearls.
Please advise how to buy with delivery to US address?
Do I really have to create new account? I have an operating store here, so simply
changing the address in the personal info will close my store.
Thanks!

I think it might violate the rules of BL to have a second account for stuff like
that. This being said, depending on your defined timeline you might not have
a lot of buying time for US based orders. While local stuff should arrive within
3-4 days, stuff coming across the country can still take a week or more sometimes
and that means the seller shipped right away. If you only have a few weeks,
you could risk stuff not arriving before you leave to return home.
