| In Suggestions, ej76az writes:
| | When clicking Buy All on a Wanted List and then clicking Auto-Select, only third-party
stores are listed. The price of a part is often (but not always) cheaper from
LEGO's PaB website than from any third-party store. Also, PaB shipping is
free if the order is at least $35, whereas shipping costs can really add up when
buying from third-party stores. LEGO has owned BL for almost half a decade.
Why is LEGO's PaB website not included among the stores on BL?
(I tried to search for this suggestion in the Forum but didn't find anything)
|
In my experience, it's rare that PaB is actually cheaper - if it were I'd
definitely be buying parts there and selling them here.

I think it's the default because it's the least expensive for the buyer.

First Class parcels could be tracked (First Class was replaced by Ground Advantage).
You definitely shouldn't be sending anything as First Class letter mail now.

- Ground Advantage for $5.95 and Priority which is $9.85.
Problem is buyers are still paying the $3.00 so every shipment I eat a min. of
$2.95. I'm sure it's something I haven't done, don't know how
to do, etc.

It looks like your First Class option is still active - you can't delete
it until all the orders you sent out with it are completed, cancelled, or purged;
but you can disable it.
By the way, please sign up for Pirate Ship so you can avail yourself of commercial
rates for postage. Ground Advantage starts at $3.79 for the commercial rate,
I believe.

Same here. You get, what is it, about 6 weeks to pay it so there really shouldn't
be any excuse to missing it. Especially if going away, paying it before leaving
is sensible. You don't have to remember once you are back.
|
One feature that might be helpful here is the ability to pre-pay fees.

You can't eliminate VAT - it will be collected either by BrickLink (if the
order is under 150 euro) or by customs in the buyer's country (if the order
is 150 euro or more).

| | HI there I'm thinking selling on this website. I wanted to ask a few questions
about it however.
#1 I have "Complete" sets, but there're original bricks are scattered
in my LEGO box. is it right/uncouth to sell something as "complete" if
I put the sets back together again from my vast lego box?
|
Yes, but you have to note in your listing if you don't have the box and/or
instructions.
| | #2 Is a mini figure still "new" if it has been gently taken care of in
a box of other minis, and never been played with and still shinny and unscratched?
|
Nope. It's Used.

There are plenty of non-European stores with fees for this and that.
Personally, I think fees for buying *more* are a bit odd, but the supermarket
analogy isn't accurate since the customer is typically walking around the
store putting the items into his or her own cart. I guess a service like Instacart
would be the closer analogy.
