Your overall praise rating is 98.20% which is rather low for a seller with 5825
orders.
|
Orders do not equal feedback. They have 2550 feedback of which 46 are non positive.

And hereby once again the argument why we need a modern kudo/appraisal/scoring/review-system.....

XML is not supported on that page (it's stupid I know...)
You need to go here:

Copy the XML file in a texteditor
And delete the first line
Copy the entire text into the text area of this page (see pic)

|
| It's Q1 again and the annual income tax review is here again ....
On the Dutch tax office website it says the following for operators like BL:
The collection and verification requirements on sellers already registered
on the platform as of 1 January 2023 [so-called "existing sellers"] must
be completed by 31 December 2024. You must report information on these sellers
by 31 January 2025.
This means for sellers already active prior to 1-1-2023, the sales data has to
be shared before 31-1-2025 and the verification data needs to be collected by
BL before 31-12-2024.
Right?
Some questions arise and I have not found the answers on the forum (tax, DAC7
etc.) or in the Terms of BL:
1) How can one check what data BL has passed onto the different national governmental
tax offices in the EU over FY2023? A company that processes personal digital
data has to provide information to these persons regarding what data was shared
with what other agencies and how this data is stored (AVG in The Netherlands).
2) When will BL start collecting the verification data (passport copies?)?
3) Is the sales value balanced with the value of purchases?
Any help is appreciated.

| I know MOST errors people report are their own fault due to changes they make.
(made some myself over the years for sure )
I know only a VERY FEW errors people report are not their own fault and DO happen....
I know that downloading an inventory CAN be helpful to find errors made by people.
Because of the merge in operation (and that will take some months I understand!)
we are forced to increase the monitoring of the inventory to CHECK nothing strange
DOES happen to the parts in store.
That's what both of you (SylvainLS and 1001bricks) suggest to do IN ORDER
to be able to PROOF it's not the users' error. That's the ridiculous
part of the response both of you add to the discussion.
And because the merging will be a process that's happening on a daily basis,
sellers are 'forced' to do these downloads and checks on a daily basis?
We are not paid to do these checks, every day. I think we pay the fees in order
NOT to be forced to do these checks on a daily basis.....

| Uploading the original XML's will default into the same errors you reported.
Downloading the XML's NOW from Rebrickable, fixes this .
Apparently there's a realtime check when the XML's are generated. That's
nice.
So you need to re-download your XMLS .
Opening old XML's in BrickStore will start a migration from the old to the
new ID's (see pic).

(not sure if it exists, but will you get my point!). At least our national Postal

So the analogy is a false one IMO, as Bricklink (TLG) does sell 1960 bricks and
not only new ones.
Check stampword dot com for instance on stamps, or dive into the AFOS (Adult
Fans Of Stamps) community and you will seek geeks that look for different teethings
on the same stamp.
Same goes here, so if it would be true analogy, follow the catalogue like AFOS
and leave the variants as is. Even if there a just 100 AFOLS who are keen on
this, leave it. Do not have it changed because 'it's easier'.
Effort brings skills. Put some effort in getting around, understanding the catalogue
and ask questions. Members help members.

I was more thinking of a specific webpage attached to your inventory where at
the back the 4000+ lines of items that will be affected are used to filter ones
inventory.
So that would make a subset (out of your complete inv) and there it can be manually
edited.
Or even better:
- add the 'optional text to be added to the lot' to that page in the
script
- add a yes/no button to it
- sellers can click each filtered lots to their liking.
That would be some nice feature and customer service !

This Wednesday I (we?) received a BL message regarding the upcoming change.
With a link to a Help Page. Nice.
Until I clicked it....
If a seller wants to 'add a short line of text' for each lot affected,
sellers need to enterl more than 4000 numbers to check IF they are in their inventory.
And than manually editing the NOTE field.
This will take every seller hours of entering numbers, checking the results,
editing note-fields en checking for the edits to be correctly made.
Urgent request: can BL please provide a script or simple change page where
this actions can be (partially) automated?

@Russell, you started this outreaching post with:
As a platform, we have decided to take a hard look at some of the mold variants
that we are currently asking you to recognize. For sellers, more variants means
extra sorting and extra work while pulling orders, plus the issues that arise
from variant misunderstandings.
For buyers, excess variants mean that it's harder to assemble a wanted list,
find stores, and ultimately obtain the parts you are looking for.
The platform can not decide. The people using, running the platform
can. But as other stated, why isn't the input form the meetings weighed in
properly?
How many sellers are complaining about the 'extra work'? If you
organize your stock properly, it is no more work. So get your stock
organized people! ('extra work'?)
And a misunderstanding is a learning opportunity for a buyer as much for the
seller. So do not make it sound like it is a punishment ('issues'?).
How many buyers have entered complaints about variants? It's a community
for X sake! Sellers educate new members. It's part of our 'job' here.
And yes, some effort is required to obtain skills; that goes for every new environment
one steps into. No pain no gain.
I object fully for these changes to be made.

On the FB Help page:
"Feedback is how you let other members know how well a transaction went."
As this transaction was cancelled, no feedback is apropriate IMO.
My suggestion is to move on from the cancelled order, leave NO feedback and block
the buyer for future orders.
And, only start picking and packing an order AFTER payment has been received.
This will not prevent future experiences like this, but it will minimize your

| I'd say 2 different prints based on the curvy edges instead of the sharp
edges on the 'cheek'-part of the helmet and the top end of the golden
stripes.
Catalog update needed?

Da's niet door drukte maar door onkunde dus.

Als je veel orders onder de 50 gram hebt, is postzegels van 2023 voordeliger
in 2024.
Ik koop meestal een paar rollen in december en zie dan volgend jaar wel.
Maar die gewichtsklasse aanpassing gooit daar nu wel roet in het eten...

Correct - whether or not you can actually open your store is a hidden setting.

O, well that solves the puzzle: there is no solution the seller can provide.
Only the admins apparently can. Seriously?
So I am a qualified driver, I have purchased a car, paid my insurance bill and
all the taxes concerning driving a car on a public road but when I try to use,
I can't open the damn thing because somebody else has my keys?
When and why this that happen?

That's odd: if your selling priviliges are ok (see screenprint!), than forward
that to the helpdesk.
Its not logical if your granted seller rights and the store will not unlock.
Never heard that one before....

| That's quite a bold statement, isn't it?
Of all the SH032's sold, can you determine what were genuine and what were
not?
When I see one store with 47 of them NEW, I scratch my head and walk away from
it.
I agree something needs to be done to make people aware of this, but as long
as this is a relative 'open' market with a great lack of regulation besides
catalog stuff not compliant with TLG policies, nothing you are hoping for will
happen I'm afraid.

|
| IMPORTANT: Be sure to CLOSE the store while updating in Brickstock/Store.
You don't want buyers buying the parts you just deleted from your store for
your MOC.
With 1400 parts, this might take still some time to process.

| If you were allowed to have 2 accounts here, you could do that very easily.
But maybe there's a (complex!) workaround by:
- creating a wanted list with the MOC parts
- go to your own store
- add the parts from the MOC-list to the cart
- it will say:
Unable to buy from yourself - BrickLink does not allow sellers to buy from
themselves.
- then hit the 'add to wanted list' on the bottom
- close your shop
- download your inventory to Brickstore/Brickstock
- download the created cart with the MOC parts to Brickstore/Brickstock
- delete your inventory from the website
- substract that parts from the dowloaded inventory in Brickstore/Brickstock
- upload the inventory where the MOC-parts have been substracted
- open your shop
Might work

there will not be a code on the box to determine which figure is in it.
I have an issue with this as Lego fans will be buying box after box looking for

The point of the entire Collectors Series is not to know what's in the package
when you buy it. They just finally got to the solution that actually achieves
this.

Funny, if was a car collector and was looking for a specific Ford Mustang, would
I buy a blind container which might contain my 'last to complete my wanted
list' ?
I think I wouldn't.
It has some charm around it, but if you are keen on completing a set, you end
up spending far more money on buying the wrong items in this way.
