Due to issues beyond our control we will no longer be able to ship overseas.

Thank you.

I have seen quite the spike in "we did not get our package" things.

One guy refused due to VAT
Another said he did not get his package when the track clearly says it was delivered.

No clue.

We have had around 10 of these in the past 3 months.

Maybe it is time to just go domestic?

Your thoughts?

***Communications in French***

I think I'm just banging my head against a wall.

I have regular communication with a nice buyer and collector. He wrote me:

Bonjour [name]. Avez vous deja vu les boites 118-2 et 118-3 ??? Merci [his
name]

I answered:

...
Set 118-3: c'est un set vendu par Sears. Je crois qu'il n'a pas de
boite. Par example, il est possibelemtn etre vendu comme ce set:

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/kraft-lego-mini-wheel-set-dump-soda-1824610533

Set 118-2: j'ai aucune idee comment il ont trouve 118-2. Je le vois dans
aucun catalog. Ca peut etre une faute. La photo de sa boite sur bricklink est
exactement celle de set 111.

Bien a vous


His response:

Bonjour [name]. Avez vous deja vu une boite occasion du 118-2 et 118-3 ??
Car moi jamais. Connaissez vous quelqu’un qui en a une ??


My response:

Set 118-3: c'est un set vendu par Sears. Je crois qu'il n'a pas
de boite. Par example, il est possibelemtn etre vendu comme ce set:

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/kraft-lego-mini-wheel-set-dump-soda-1824610533

Set 118-2: j'ai aucune idee comment il ont trouve 118-2. Je le vois dans
aucun catalog. Ca peut etre une faute. La photo de sa boite sur bricklink est
exactement celle de set 111."

Donc, comme le set 118-2 n'exist pas, personne ne l'a vu ne plus.
Le set 118-3 exist main il n'a pas de boite. Il etait juste emballe dans
un carton ou quelque chose pareil comme quelque chose que vous pouvez voire dans
le lien:
https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/kraft-lego-mini-wheel-set-dump-soda-1824610533
Donc, comme la boite de set 118-3 n'exist pas, personne ne 'a vu, personne
ne l'a et il n'y a pas de photo de la boite ne plus car on peut pas prendre
une photo de quelque chose qui n'a jamais existe 🙂


At this point, I am convinced either I did't explaing things properly or
I'm just banging my head against a wall.

Now, those who know French, please tell me if you were initially looking for
boxes of these two sets, what would you have understood from my responses and
if you would continue looking to find the boxes? What would you have answered
me after my two responses.

Once, a few of you French guys kindly reply to this, I write what his third message
was!

Is this considered a misprint LEGO? Does it have any value?

Thank you.

Are any other US Stores having shipping issues to international addresses lately?

We have had 3 lost in the last 60 days. No trace after it reaches country arrival.
All 3, the tracking info stops at that point.

Hey All, ive been a seller for a good few years but now im looking to do bricklink
as a full time job, i believe all the best ideas are stolen from other people.

ive got some Racco draws to start with, so what im asking is how you number things/also
what do you use to put numbers on the draws.

ive watched countless youtube vids talking about bricklink.

So if you all could show me how you organise/label your draws or drop me any
hints or tips.

I hope your all having a great day

Jim

Hello All,

I'm relatively new to Bricklink, so my apologies if this is in the wrong
section of the forum. (If so, I'd appreciate it if someone could point me
to the correct section.)

 
Set No: 7637  Name: Farm
* 
7637-1 (Inv) Farm
597 Parts, 3 Minifigures, 2009
Sets: Town: City: Farm

I recently acquired a 7637 Farm that's mostly complete. Unfortunately, while
there are very few stickers in the set, it seems that most of them are either
misaligned so they overlap two bricks, or placed on the wrong brick.

The most serious cases are two of the cylinder quarters, which have the ends
of their stickers hanging off the edge of the brick by almost a full stud. The
adhesive backing seems to have attracted dust and lint. Fortunately, these are
the only stickers that have lost any stickiness.

The support crane stands have their stickers swapped - so the arrows are pointing
the wrong way. But luckily, these appear to be perfectly intact.

Is there any method that I can use to safely remove/clean/re-stick stickers?
Also, is it necessary or worthwhile to put some sort of sealer (Mod Podge, etc.)
over the top of stickers?

Hey All

I hope your all well today, ive been doing some parting out for before i list
them,

working on the star wars 75345 * 100, the first bag 30 very easy, BUT Then the
smaller bag, 74 parts, it just seemed a long part out process.

Have you ever found a set you didnt enjoy parting out?

I hope you all have a great day

Jim
