I like the idea. Often a store offers rare parts which are not on my wanted list.
But it is hard to find them. With this feature you can make a fast choice to
buy them for example to meet the minimum amount.
|
Yes, it woulg make more sales for stores that offer "rare" or "HTF" parts, without
them having to say "Rare" or "HTF" in the description. Also, it would filter
oy non rare, but marked as such in the comments

It would be great to have a section, maybe in minifig section for them so people
could sell them and by them instead of looking for all the individual parts.
Thanks for considering
There is lots of new designs released in 2012...
Even if they are not considered minifigs they are caracters...
So if they are not categorised with minifigs it woud be great to locate them
in a section

They are (kind of).

You can choose not to follow the suggestion.
Some say that is unfair
Some say it is criminal
Some disobey trying to avoid custom Taxes for several reasons.

My integrity dictates a different belief in this matter.
I do actually stop for pedestrians, set my speed at the limit, do not dance on
sunday's in the world of footloose. I, if need be, attempt to change things,
when I disagree.
What say you? Shall we all cheat to win? Shall we all step on others, no matter
the cost, for our own greed?
It was explained to me, how I could cheat the state government for extra moneys
by telling a small lie, it would mean I could get thousands of $$ in heath care...
But even on this issue, I can not lie. A lie for profit, via state or person
is, in my eyes reprehensible.
There are many who seem to think it's O.K. to lie, cheat, or steal to get ahead.
Perhaps this is the way the world, and this community has devolved to.
I'll not be happy, or stand idle for this.
I'll post opinions (until silenced) and stand for the good of the community.
Again, what say you!

You assume 50%, but is this just some number you've made up without facts to

But such questions and others similar to this one happen often here. So I think
that such a suggestion will not help to prevent such questions.
But in general I understand that countries need taxes for several projects and
I pay them without beeing angry as I know it. But laws are not allways fair and
when the laws are not fair then the people are not willing to follow it.
As an example in Germany: It is not fair that you pay 46% of your earned money
to the country as taxes and for health organization and so on but when you go
to the dentist then you have to pay between 25 - 100 Euro for a white plomb!
|
If you don't like your own system, work to change it, until then, laws are not
suggestions.

| | No...
Why?
Several sellers have said that MANY buyers are wanting to undevalue their packages.
This means that not only 5% of BL users want it but almost the half (in my opinion).
So it does not make a big sense in my eyes...
Beside this, I can understand the people.
The custom taxes are there to protect the own market against foreign influence.
This is great and makes also sense for new LEGO sets.
BUT:
It does make NO sense for very old sets that exists ONLY in a foreign country.
From this point of view the buyer has no chances to buy it from his own country!
So what does the customs here protect??? Nothing and in this case the people
pay the tayes for nothing!
And I would say that in most cases people are buying sets from foreign countries
not because of cheaper prices but because of missing them in their own states...

So, you are in favor of violating laws? You are in faovor of unfaair trade? You
are unwilling to deal with your own government's use of taxes, so you suggest
simply undercutting the system under which you live?
Laws are not suggestions...

How will that impact sets from 1966-80 where shrinkwrap on the outer box is considered
the seal?
Or sets before 1966 where the (non-sealed) box top comes off to show the seal
being the shrinkwrap on the lower box? (See below).
And then there are the spare parts packs before 1972 that often had no seal whatsoever
to speak of?
Cheers,
Gary Istok

I don't know, perhaps if you added a clear definition to deal with these situations
(that's what this thread is for) then we'll have an idea how to deal with them.
