  I have part x376px6 (https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x376px6#T=C),
the large lion flag from the Royal Knights collection. Bricklink says it's
only in one set, Royal Knight's Castle, and I know I never had that set (waaaay
too expensive for my parents to buy).

Does anyone know where it might be in another set?

What other set in the series did you have?

This is the list to check:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=S&catString=9.285

I can't find it anywhere,
  but obviously I've got it. I want to say it was an individual mini fig, sold
with maybe a horse and the red lion cape (which also says it's only in one
set).

I think this is what you are looking for

Keep in mind, that for some stupid reason, this does not block direct messages.

Hey Crystal,

How much would you worry if a buyer, who called you "overzealous seller",
"bonehead seller", "does not know whats going on",..., wants
to block you?

World ending. I'd be distraught. XD Then I'd reply to their feedback
with a non sequitur.


I would just wait few hours and the feedback will be automatically removed since
the NPD was completed few hours ago.

  



Seriously though, when I'm teaching people Ebay, I have to explain to new
sellers that you are going to have to block tons of people, and to not feel bad
about it. IMO the more questions asks the bigger then pain the person ends up
being.

I get blocked on Ebay more often. I am an established seller here and I think
I know why (for what reasons) and when I should block somebody. But I have no
idea why I get blocked by some sellers on Ebay. I already know that by messaging
a seller to ask extra photos,... I am already at risk of getting blocked.
Later time, I got blocked by a seller in the USA after few messages back and
forth. I have absolutely no idea why he blocked me. I politely asked him the
reason and what I did wrong. He did not answer me. As a seller, I literally cannot
come with a reason that he might have to block me.
I believe you did not teach him when and who he has to block.

I wanted badly his rare Lego listings and used a friend's account to buy
the products from him. Now I really want to leave a negative feedback for him.
Is this over-reacting?

I can even pass my communications with him. Maybe you have a better understanding
on how Ebay works.

  It seems the plume feathers that are not used in the minifig are extra parts.
The extra plumes are seldom found with used sets found at sales. Keys in the
Harry Potter set are also confusing in this regard. Other parts like 1x1 round
plates come together and the unused ones are considered extra parts. It does
not seem right that a castle must be listed as incomplete if an unused plume
is not included.


It can be listed as complete per definition of used complete set:

Complete - Set contains all parts necessary to build all of the models
(including alternate models) in the instructions
but does not have to contain
the original box/packaging and/or extra parts. If the set is missing instructions,
the description must list this. If the set did not come with instructions then
the set should include all parts listed in the picture inventory which is located
on the box or bucket. The set must include all original stickers used on the
model either still on the sticker sheet or applied.


https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=102#:~:text=Complete%20%2D%20Contents%20are%20brand%20new,)%20and%20original%20box%2Fpackaging.

This definition does not say "Set contains all parts in the regular
or alternate section".
If the plumes in a castle set are not used in any alternate model, the set can
be listed complete without them.



  This is especially true of black plumes.



In Inventories, Zab3uk75 writes:
  Hi, can any one confirm the head gear plumes in this set.
The inventory (Bricklink) shows
Plume feather small 4502a x 1
plume feather large 4502c x 1

The instructions show neither of these (perhaps I have missed them) but does
show
plume feather triple 4502b

Thanks for your help.

We will only accept frosted bricks as an alternate.

Why?

By the way, you added an extra

to

in 2009.
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChangeItem.asp?itemType=S&itemNo=853-1&viewDate=Y&viewStatus=1

What is the evidence of an extra 3743?
I have seen photos of a new set 956 but there were no extra 3743.

  hmmm. sounds like it could be related to the auto deposit to a bank account that
you mentioned. I had that setup and it had the option of only transferring the
CAD funds or CAD and USD so presumably if it tries to transfer the USD to the
bank it would convert it to CAD directly in PayPal so if they set that up and
then you disconnected the bank then that would make sense. if you turn that all
off then you should be good to go.

Nope, I didn't have any other issues. as soon as I changed the password,
removed their stuff and setup the Microsoft Authenticator app I haven't had
any suspicious activity.

That scammer costed me like ~50 to 60$ conversation fees of PayPal.
Leave alone I could have used those funds to buy from USA, Europe...

The title of this message was 2fa.
It was about PayPal account.

I wish I had taken this message more seriously.

Take this seriously! Now!

I'll never forget it, my PayPal account got hacked years ago so I had to
call them, we reset my email back, changed my password about to hang up and my
email was changed back to the wrong email address. Ever since that day I use
2fa for everything I can.

Sure it's a bit annoying at times, but much less so than having what little
money I have taken away, that is way more annoying.

The thing is 2FA dosnt even help (at least some forms) as I had 2FA via text
yet they still got in without me getting a single text then added a phone number
from the Philippines and a bank from the USA all without raising a single alarm.
I since changed to Microsoft Authenticator so it’s not possible to even sign
in on a trusted device without the code so hopefully that 2FA is better

Hi there,

I set up 2FA with Micros. Authen.

Today I noticed the recent funds I received in USD and EURO were converted to
CAD
The conversions happened at different times. I wonder if this was an automatic
conversation or maybe
Part of an automatic trasnfer: i.e. the guy set up a daily automatic transfer
within which he set the foreign funds to be converted first. Now his bank account
is removed from my account so that automatic transfer misses the bank account
but the part that set up "conversion to CAD" is still working.

I tried to undo this. Hopefully this conversions are stopped.

Or maybe the scammer somehow can login and convert my funds to piss me up because
he is disappointed he cannot transfer my funds to his bank account!

Otherwise, I don't know.

Do you/did you have the same issue ?

Cheers,
Reza

  Hi,

Hi

  Customer has canceled the order after the deal was made

Customer does NOT have the power to cancel an order. You agreed to cancel. If
you didn't want to agree, you had to initiate an NPB.

  and the bricks were packed

Since the buyer had not paid, why did you pack at the first place? packing should
be done only when the buyer has already paid.

  and ready for shiping. I have blocked him.
I want to give him negative feedback but I am afraid if he do that also, and
I don't want first negative feedback.

What to do with customers like this one?

Thanks!

If buyer does not pay, initiate an NPB AND complete it. It can take about 2-3
weeks. Once it is complete, you can leave a negative feedback and the buyer will
not be allowed to leave any feedback for you. If he already left a feedback,
his feedback would be removed once the NPB is completed.

Set No: 6236  Name: King Kahuka
* 
6236-1 (Inv) King Kahuka
41 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 1994
Sets: Pirates: Pirates I: Islanders

* Add 1 Part 3039 Light Gray Slope 45 2 x 2

Could you please tell us the source for this request?

The part in step 2 is a Brick 1 x 2 which is already in the inventory.
 
Part No: 3004  Name: Brick 1 x 2
* 
3004 Brick 1 x 2
Parts: Brick {Light Gray}

Yes correct, there are two light gray Bricks 1 x 2:

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/lego-set-6236-islanders-king-kahuka-172403696

But on the back of the box, in the alternate model, I see three
 
Part No: 3040  Name: Slope 45 2 x 1
* 
3040 Slope 45 2 x 1
Parts: Slope {Light Gray}

They look to be Slope 45 2 x 1 and not Slope 45 3 x 1

Currently there are 41 parts + minifig
Minifig has 4 parts.
Total= 45

But three white parts 2x 6029a and 1x6029b came with sprue:
 
Part No: 6029  Name: Minifigure, Plume Wheel Sprue Complete, 2 Cattle Horns and Feathered Headdress
* 
6029 (Inv) Minifigure, Plume Wheel Sprue Complete, 2 Cattle Horns and Feathered Headdress
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear Accessory

So the total becomes
Total= 45 - 2 = 43

The piece count on the box is 42. This is a mismatch.
If we add one extra light gray Slope 45 2 x 1, the mismatch would be held!

The quantity of the light gray bricks and slopes in the inventory is correct
according to the official online parts list.
https://www.bricklink.com/r3/inventorycomparison/main.page?sourceB=1&invB=6236&sourceA=0&invA=6236-1

You referenced the official Lego's inventory because you kind of agree there
are three 1x2 slopes?

At the end of the day, TLG has made a mistake. Either on piece count or on the
inventory and piece count both!
  
Btw., I own this set new in opened box. I just don't know where it is.

That is a common problem
  
In any case, there is no evidence that this set came with a light gray
 
Part No: 3039  Name: Slope 45 2 x 2
* 
3039 Slope 45 2 x 2
Parts: Slope {Light Gray}
so the inventory change request can't be accepted.

The minifigure head and torso came preassembled and were only counted as one

Incorrect!

Are sales low for others?

Good to know it’s not just me.

Based on other responses, seems it's just me and you

maybe with this and the Paypal thing we are just unlucky

Yeap kind of unlucky but there are actually few things we can do to make things
work better ...

If so, does it have to do with November 3rd incident?

  I have been on this site for many years now, and have done my share of purchases
and sales. Typically I charge the exact price it costs me to ship a given package,
sometimes I do this at a aloss i.e., I charge extra for the box (1-2 $), but
do not charge anything for the air bubbles or my hot glue gun.

Sometime back I ordered few parts ($5.00 worth), and the seller asked for $6.00
for shipping and $3.00 extra charges.

Maybe I have not kept up with the 'business', but isn't this extreme?

LOL Try buying from New Zealand. I don't even bother looking at any USA or
British shops on here. More often than not your prices and shipping ARE Extreme
in the true meaning of the word. IE more than my order by a long long shot and
simply not woth even looking at which is a real shame as you've got some
great stores.

for common parts, I buy from Canada. But I still order from few other countries
like Denmark, Sweden, UK, Germany,

The last time I received an order from New Zealand was for two minifigs:
Cost of parts: 25.19
Shipping costs: 11.85
Extra parts: 0
Total: $37.04 USD

Shipping costs for a 1kg package would be about $30 USD.

You may consider looking at stores in Canada and other countries.

  Yikes… this new hack is definitely formidable to the point even PayPal thinks
it’s you doing it

I appealed the case and few minutes later I received this message:

I am certain your account is hacked and you are not true.

The title of this message was 2fa.
It was about PayPal account.

I wish I had taken this message more seriously.

Take this seriously! Now!

Did they get you to?

Yes they did and transferred all my funds in my balance to their bank in NA,
USA
Few hundreds $

I opened two cases and hopefully it gets resolved.

Yikes. Was it to “CITIBANK, NA Checking ••8643” like mine

CITIBANK, NA: yes
Was: ••1643

  Hopefully you get your money back. Also if they added a phone number was it a
+63

In my email, it says:
"You added ‪0*****97001"

Mine was “0*****80294”
So slightly different. But yah I wonder if they are targeting bricklink sellers
or if it’s just a coincidence. How is the saying. 1 is chance, 2 is coincidence
but 3 is no accident or something

Email from PayPal:

An update about your case
We've completed our review of your unauthorized activity case, and we’ve
determined there was no unauthorized use.
For more information about these cases, log in to your PayPal account and go
to the Resolution Centre.


I don't know if it helps to contact that bank in NA.
