This would be easy with two orders:
31 US stores have all four torsos
8 US stores have both the soccer ball and net
|
I know, but I would prefer to buy them all from one place if possible.
|
It seems like it’s not possible
|
I guess not. Thanks anyway!

| You have to fulfill the wanted list yourself (aka place orders by going into
your wanted list, clicking "buy all" and having the system select stores/create
carts for you)
Then you place the orders and apply them to the wanted list once they arrive
and you've verified you bought everything; if you want to verify you've
purchased everything without actually having it in your hands, copy the wanted
list and apply the orders to it to make sure you've hit 100% of the parts
needed

Thank you

It depends on the parts. If the parts you want are no longer in production and
hard to find now, then probably never.

Why only US, if there's not all of them in US?
Make a Wanted-List?
|
I suppose it would be fine if it was in a different country so long as shipping
wasn't too expensive. Also, I did make a wanted list but no one had all of
it listed so I thought I'd ask if anyone had it all and just hadn't listed
it yet.

Doesn’t that filter (pic) work for those stores?

Yes, but let's say I want to buy 50 of something, and a store I'm shopping
has a lot of 40. I will buy the 40, and then I can change the 50 to 10 in my
Wanted List. However, if another store also has 40, but they're in 20 lots
of 2 each, I won't buy from that shop. I would get the same amount, and
let's hypothetically say that the parts were even the same price as the other
store, but going through so many duplicate lots is tedious and annoying.
Additionally, if a store has a large amount of duplicate lots, it really makes
me think that that seller is quite disorganized; disorganized enough that he
could make other errors such as being short on some of the parts in an order.

The assumption is bricklink is the best possible sales interface and inventory
management system. I couldn't imagine amazon running a successful business
using this inventory system. How many inventory locations does Amazon have for
one item. The difference is Amazon has an independent inventory for stock room,
reciept of goods, shipping, order processing.
|
Okaaay... I wasn't comparing Bricklink to Amazon. I certainly don't
claim that Bricklink's inventory management system is the best possible,
but it does let sellers eliminate duplicate lots and even warns a seller when
creating a new duplicate lot.

I work with other stores buying inventory and I get a commission, off of the
lot/set/parts i purchased. so it would look like "Bin: MA 0034 80%".
If we merge lots it could dilute the cost that i paid. keeping it all within
bricklink minimizes errors and simplifies the process without additional fields
it makes this along with other processes more difficult.

If the seller refunds for the missing / damaged / wrong parts and shows proof
of it, then the NSS will be removed. However, the buyer might still leave negative
feedback. So the store can have a poor feedback score without being suspended.
|
I know but 3 NSS and you are suspended until it is resolved. Then you submit
proof and how long do you have to wait? One guy was waiting 3 weeks to reopen.
If they all did an NSS the bad stores would be gone more often.
|
I don't know how long you have to wait. I know we get reports here of people
waiting multiple weeks, but I don't know how common that is. Similarly I
don't know how many buyers go on to complete a NSS after they start one,
especially when there is evidence a parcel was delivered or money has been refunded.
