| 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!

Author: | Seajay21 | Posted: | Mar 31, 2024 20:36 | Subject: | Any Advice on Repositioning Stickers? | Viewed: | 84 times | Topic: | General | |
|
| 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.)
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?

| Was thinking more about the doomed sets in the unreleased catagory, and went
for a second look.
I clicked on a item and noticed that the banner on the top said, "This Item
was Likely Not Released".
Key word for me "LIKELY".
How are we supposed to know for sure if a item was not released if no one can
put one up for sale?!?
So my request is that you allow sellers to sell the item, but only in the conditions
of sealed or new.

| If you are using a modern smartphone to satisfy picture requests, it is very
likely that the pictures contain location data as to precisely where you were
located when you took the picture. Unless you turn that off, or strip the EXIF
data, you are telling the recipient where you store your inventory.
Something to keep in mind.

| Hello!
Two questions on how to download inventory from BrickLink:
a) For a full download of all parts in the BrickLink catalog, I would like to
include the size dimensions (cm). There is a checkbox option to "Include
Dimensions", but this downloads the information in stud size, not in cm.
Is there an option to include the cm size dimensions with my download?
b) For a download of my own store inventory, I see that it pulls in the Remarks
column. However, it does not include the Comments field. Is there an option to
include the Comments field as a column with my download?
Thank you,

Author: | GorillaBrick | Posted: | Mar 14, 2024 12:18 | Subject: | NC Gorilla Store for Sale (Maybe) | Viewed: | 88 times | Topic: | General | |
|
| Hey Y'all -
I'm considering hanging up the bricks. This old Gorilla is getting tired
and losing a bit of motivation. Hiring sorting monkeys is possible, but not
really a good option for my store size. I have a small store here in coastal
NC about 30 minutes north of Myrtle Beach, SC. At this point, I have NOT liquidated
anything, so my full inventory is available and hasn't been cherrypicked.
I have approximately 111k parts in roughly 10k lots with a BL 6 Mos avg of
around $9.5K. I would like to nab a 40% sale price. Also available at a bargain
would be about 30 TuffStore cabinets with hundreds of drawer dividers, at least
a 100 lbs give or take of unsorted lego, and maybe another 150 pieces or so of
unlisted minifigs. Inventory quality is a mix of new and used with the used
being very good and the drawers very accurate, as is confirmed by my 100% feedback
score after 2 1/2 years of selling and 1600+ orders.
I'm not opposed to shipping, but it would be expensive for you. I would
much prefer for you to come on down to my neck of the jungle and bring a big
van, or a small trailer. I can shrink wrap the cabinets with inventory inside,
but because I am keeping about 20 or so cabinets, some of the inventory would
need to be bagged. Pictures and/or a Brickstore file is available on request.
Shoot me your thoughts, questions, or comments.
