Sadly it has now happened to me too.

A happy customer has posted neutral feedback.

Couldn’t expect to keep 100% forever but hate to lose it this way.

Messaged them asking why a neutral, explaining result of a neutral on my score,
awaiting a reply.

Oh well, it won’t affect sales as buyers can see the customer was happy with
items.

How long on average does it take for bricklink stores to have the missing pieces
you need?
My wanted list got 60% fulfilled in one day
How long on average does someone have to wait for the whole wanted list to fulfill?
Thank you

A while back, I had a buyer reach out to me asserting that the

* 
61287pb007 Cylinder Hemisphere 2 x 2 with Cutout with Blue Lines and Purple Dots Jelly Mask Pattern
Parts: Cylinder, Decorated
I sold them was fake due to no lego logo and that they've
often seen Ninjago theme as one of the most common themes where knock offs are
produced.

It's possible that it was fake, but there is usually more to it than just
a non logo. The difference in quality is usually glaring and would certainly
be noticeable on a trans-clear part that's also printed.

Since then, I've come across

* 
61287c01pb03 (Inv) Cylinder Hemisphere 2 x 2 with Reddish Brown Globe Pattern
Parts: Cylinder, Decorated
that I know are authentic that do not have a lego logo. I've
also reached out to a few huge sellers that specialize in minifigs and they've
told me as well that some of these hemisphere parts do not have the logo.

If any sellers are able to check any of their hemisphere parts that they know
are authentic, I'd appreciate the additional data.

Dear all,

I'm looking for somebody who can design/build crane for one of my customers.
First pure static but a working crane is preferred. More information about the
crane can be found on the website www.tetrahedron.tech

I have a budget for this so it doesn't have to be free.

Who is experienced with these builds and can help me with that?

Greetings,
Martin Vos
The Netherlands

I don't know what to do next. The order has been packed for a week now.
I have already paid. The seller has read my messages, but has not responded.

should i report problem with the order with the link on the order detail form?
should I reverse the charge on paypal?

I am a buyer. I don't sell. I don't use bricklink very much. Advice
would be helpful.

Easy buy is so broken. It picked a store and set up the cart with 122 lots.
The store has an 80 lot limits. Also, the seller has multiple lots of 1ea and
of course I need multiples, so unnecessary lots are added when they could be
consolidating them when they add them. And some can argue that it's just
how they do things and have them in different places when they part them out,
but when you keep the same part in multiple locations it is an inefficient usage
of space.

TY for reading. Rant over, carry on.

Received a high dollar order on Feb 10th. Pulled, Packed, Invoiced, Paid, Posted
all in about 24 hours. Post office received package on Feb 11th. As it's
an international shipment, it goes through the Chicago International Distribution
Center on the evening of Feb 16th. Then it basically disappears until April 12th.
No one knows where it went, how it got there, what cruise line it detoured through,
nothing. Here's what the time interval looks like on the USPS tracking page
looks:

- Processed Through USPS Regional Facility
CHICAGO IL INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION CENTER
February 16, 2024, 7:43 pm

- Processed Through Facility
NETHERLANDS
April 12, 2024, 9:46 pm

Did they travel through the Bermuda triangle? Where did it go? I cannot express
the amount of appreciation I have for an understanding customer who paid so much
for this order, and then patiently waited almost two months for a tracking update
from USPS. TWO MONTHS! It's almost like the postal service is purposefully
trying to kill off international business opportunities. First with huge price
jumps, then with a decreased level of service that borders on apathy.

The postal service told me that after it leaves the US there's not a lot
they can do, 'it's out of our hands'. Why offer tracking at all when
it's of little use? And when I asked them about filing a case for a missing
package, they tell me that it has to be missing at least 60 days before I can
file as a missing package. Insane, absolutely insane. Going to send a Christmas
box of dog poop to Mr DeJoy... through Fedex.

I sold and shipped an old classic Space set. The set was in good condition when
shipped. The buyer reports three problems:
1. One part is bent (hinge plate).
2. One plate 4 x 6 is broken (really: in two halfs!)
3. The one minifig in the set (classic space figure) has a cracked arm.
He asks to ship it back and get his money back.

I understand his frustration: a small'ish set with three defects is not good.
But I just didn't see the problems when shipping. Still my fault obviously,
but definitely not by intent.

I would rather suggest to send replacement parts:
1. Send a replacement part
2. Send a replacement part
3. Send a replacement arm (not the whole minifig)

Would you consider this a good solution?
If the buyer would persist in sending the set back, how would you handle it?

Thank you for your feedback.

Hi, I've been playing a lot with the shipping options. Unfortunately, it's
always a matter of luck whether it works for the buyer. Is there a way to test
the options too? I have created a workaround and a private account here. This
now works for domestic shipments. But how can I test worldwide shipping? I don't
want to create a separate test account for each country. Thanks Johannes
