Yes. There are no legitimate cases for sellers to ever mark an order as completed.
|
Then is this functionality enabled? I have posted this question many times on
the forum and no one has posted an answer. So, here we go again:
If a seller should "never" mark an order as complete, then why does BL
allow it?
| | Even if the buyer says they got their order and are happy it still is no reason
then up to the seller to mark it as complete. Those orders would then just fall
into the same category as the other ~50% of orders that would be in the exact
same circumstance aside for the message. And on the flip side letting the seller
mark it as complete can make things much more difficult for buyers.
|
But a seller *is* allowed to mark an order as complete. Why is it allowed if
it's so terrible?
| | Just like
a buyer can’t change the order status from paid to shipped the seller should
not be allowed to change it from shipped to completed.
|
I really don't see the big deal. Every order has a buyer and a seller, and
if the seller feels the order is complete they have the ability to mark it as
complete. The buyer can always change it back.
Ideally there would be two types of Complete in the pulldown, one for "Seller
- Complete" and the other "Buyer - Complete".

I’m having a hard time with this, as I’ve been trying to buy some specific parts
missing from some sets and 2 times now, I’ve ordered specific parts, added on
a few others to meet the minimum buy for the seller and the seller sends me a
message AFTER shipping that they don’t have or can’t find the parts I actually
needed and still shipped the package. They provide a refund for the missing
parts, but those were the only reason I was buying in the first place.
|
Refuse delivery of the package so it goes back to the seller. After this happens
One or 2 time the seller learns not to engage in this cruddy business practice.

As a user of BrickLink, for years I have always read the Forum like one would
read a newspaper every day, just to keep up. For me it, it is more interesting
than a lot of the traditional news.
|
Me too! I do wish more users would post though. Not sure how much if the user
base knows about the forums, especially newer members.

Any advice? Any special tools or methods you use to keep fraudulent chargeback
to a minimum? Even basic advice regarding making the selling experience as issue-free
for the buyer would be welcome. I have initiated automated checkout.
|
Maybe I missed a policy change, but chargebacks have always been allowed. Even
so, they are very rare. I can only recall getting one chargeback for a low-dollar
non-Lego item on another platform, and the buyer was clearly unhinged.

| You account is a little over a year old. You left 25 feedbacks as a buyer so
far. Of these, 5 were neutral. All 5 mention brick quality.
Are your standards unrealistic or do you have the worst luck of all the Lego
buyers in Germany?

I revoked a purchase contract, sent the goods back and was immediately refunded
the money by the retailer via the original payment method (Paypal).
The retailer has now opened a "Non-Paying Buyer Alert".
|
Wait; you received the package and returned it? And they’re hitting you with
an NPB?
|
Thank you for reading correctly. Yes, that's exactly what happened! And now
I don't know what to do!

| | Hello. I don't know if this is the right place to ask about this. I was
working on setting up international shipping plans for my store, and worked through
the list of countries. However, I saw that while many other countries in Africa
are available to ship to, Nigeria isn't one of them. This seems very strange
to me, as it is one of the most populous countries in the world, with over 200
million people. Is there some reason why it's not included in the list of
countries to potentially ship to?

| If OP did not keep the order detail emails, another option would be to reach
out to the sellers. I keep every order detail email and have forwarded these
emails to buyers when asked.

To me it looks like the buyer 'misplaced' a bag. Nothing I can do here
but give him the benefit of the doubt and send him the extra parts. The thing
is, all those parts he claims are missing, I do NOT have them. I'll have
to break/amputate other sets. Pity ... live and learn as they say. Sometimes
you gotta learn to take a loss as there is no 'clear' solution in sight.
|
If it were me I would buy the parts on BL and have them sent directly to the
buyer or offer a refund. That way you don't have to mess up your other sets.
