| How'd you know for sure they are scammers? Maybe they are Russians who moved
to the UK, but didn't change their e-mail provider.
I myself have an hotmail.com (US) mailaddress, but live in The Netherlands, so
I would be a scammer too by your definition?
If they pay, it's ok; would be my motto. And yes, if I were you I'd prefer
IBAN as well, as it's a lot more secure than paypal and you as a seller have
a lot more rights, and your own bank has a lot less fees than paypal as well.

| Hi
Would it be possible to block a buyer having an email from a given country eg
Russia, but his postal address is the UK?
Just got yet another scammers ordering from my shop with this very suspicious
config, even got negative from himfeedback from him.
Or a setting that enables us to block and oblige the buyer to pay buy only with
iban

Yes true Nico, I'll agree, but just got another fake account ordering from
my shop, that's the second guy from Russia. Just asked 2 things from him.
Provide a proof of his address is legit in france (e.g. electricity bill) and
send the money to my IBAN. After 11 days, no payments nor response....
But just added another faker to my block list.

WHY do these colors appear as known colors on item 3003 and do not appear as

This is a mismatch of catalog criterias - seen from my view.
I think that a short explanation in the additional notes would be good.

It was great wheen BrickLink for about a year ago had some articles where we
could meet some sellers. Fun to read and great for any BrickLinker, I think specially
for sellers.
Coldn´t we have something just the same with some buyers? Invite them to participate
and show of their collection. What do you collect? Are you a builder or just
collecting? Any special finding to tell about? What do you seek now? Any goal
whit your project, collection?
Et c.
I been a collector my self and I often think it´s not so easy to share my passion
with ordinary friends, not that many of them understand Passion of Lego at all.
Maybe more people out there thinks the same?
I think this would be a very good byer friendly marketing thing that could increase

Not sure if God has anything to do with it. (just yanking your chain).
I meet a few sellers and buyers when I was at a Show (called Steam) in the UK.
I had to drive to Swindon (not impressed by the way with Swindon). Met some great
Bricklinkers, I had met them when we still had a Chat section and got to know
them.
It might be a good idea to meet at a neutral place and not a dark alley or at
there house at 2 am (might be a set up). If they offer you candy and they drive
a Van with no windows don't stop just drive on!

Nah, it’s only second hand knowledge
What it shows though is I think “dirty” otherwise I’d have referred to spy stuff,
like 1940’s BBC’s “Les Français parlent aux Français” (French speak to French,
résistance’s coded messages).

| For sellers that buy their lego by weight a field in the settings where a seller
can enter cost per weight would be really useful.
If there was, then the cost per piece field could automatically be filled in
for the seller, instead of having to work it out manually each time. And the
cost of inventory would then be quickly reflected.

I did see a seller that has something like "send me a pic of what you built and
I'll share it on *insert social media here*" Which is something I thought
was neat. I'd love to so something like that.
In person, meh, not if they know who I am (as in they have bought from me and
now have my address). Unfortunately being a woman in a mainly "male" hobby sets
me up for all sorts of stalkers.
Honestly, I feel your pain, not being able to share, but thats what expos/events/etc
are for right?

This is hilarious, but I do admit I'm happy to have a $30 non set order and
would consider it large. I honestly have made about 40+ orders here and don't
think I've ever spent $30 at once except when I was finishing a #6985 and
the parts were very expensive.
What I really find is when people are selling as HUGE LOT of lego online/craigslist
without pictures that some questioning reveals its like 3 lbs worth. That's
what it reminds me of.
Anyway, I see both sides,

People have different budgets and levels of disposable income. I am happy to
get a $30+ order, aren't you? Mocking the OP only reenforces his viewpoint,
so way to go, I guess.
Regardless of OP's budget, his complaint is has merit, I have felt the same
way shopping in some seller's stores.
