  The BL accepted payment method settings has two options:
1. "Within My Country I Accept Payment By"
2. "Internationally I Accept Payment By"

Please add the possibility to exclude Paypal for EU as accepted method.
Perhaps with the methods "Paypal (EU)" and "Paypal (Worldwide)".

The status is still open.
But I still agree with that suggestion! I don't see any reason to pay PayPal
fee when bank transfer is very easy and fast within EU (SEPA, IBAN). Buyers from
EU choose mostly PayPal but are willing to switch to bank transfer when I ask
them. So it's not a general problem.

  Since the BL 2.0 update came out multiple stores have experienced a decrease
in sales and I believe that the "PREFERED SELLER " thing at the bottom of the
home screen is redirecting everybody to just 4 stores! I have only seen one store
change since the update.... For real bricklink you need to get it together, everyone
has been saying this since BL 2.0 came out.... Please go back.

Well, since BL 2.0 I sell much less than before.
Regardless that prices are average or less!
And inventory is not less.

During summer time that happend years ago, too.
But not so intense.

Dear admins,

sometimes it would be helpful to see the order weight in Orders Received Overview.
That's why please add optional order weight column.

Thanks,
Markus

  As there is going to be automated check-out next year (don't think they'll
make it in Q1 but maybe somewhere in 2015 it might actually happen) I think it's
a good idea if the new part dimension extension of the catalog gets implemented
as quickly as possible, even if it's just an empty database. This way, we
can already start contributing by measuring parts and entering dimensions. Several
members here including me occasionally measure parts on the other site, and it'd
be very convenient if we could enter the numbers on both sites simultaneously.

The reason why I'm asking for extra priority for this one is because I suspect
that in many countries sellers could work with auto check-out just fine without
the dimensions since their shipping methods are not volume-based, while for other
sellers (such as all the Dutch sellers) the dimension database is a prerequisite
to even begin considering using auto check-out. If the auto check-out feature
hits only shortly after the implementation of the database, there will be a long
span of time in which part of the sellers can use auto check-out while the others
still have to wait. While of course they can stick to the traditional method
for as long as needed, this does create a span of time with unfair competition
as buyers may prefer auto check-out.

So let's keep things fair and open the database for contribution quickly
so by the time auto check-out hits, we are all equal and able to use it!

Maybe a bit out of topic.
But, how should it work with auto checkout?
When the order is for 430gr at Bricklink it would calculate for letters up to
500gr instead the total weight would be more than 500gr?

I am a bit skeptical.

Additional, when foreign buyers order a few parts for 2-3 EUR only and I have
to charge them the minimum postage of 3.45 EUR then I contact them before invoicing.
I write that they can add some more up to about 350gr order weight without increase
the postage. Many buyers are very happy to get this information.

There are a few more details why I'd prefere manual invoicing.

hi,

it would be nice if we could delete messages (with topic "Regarding Bricklink
order ...") directly in order detail view.

  Hi,

I would be happy when you could include the seller option to enable/disable PayPal
for countries with Euro currency

Countries see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euro#Direct_usage

Reason: Everyone within the Euro currency zone can pay via bank transfer and
this is free of charge for sellers and buyers. It's also very fast (payment
takes 2-3 days). But seller could save unnecessary PayPal fee.

Thanks,
Markus

Sorry that I didn't look for before my posting

Your suggestion is slightly different, you are asking for a subset of countries
that have the Euro. The other suggestion is for all countries in the EU (of which
not all use the Euro).

Robert

My question depends on Euro currency countries only because in my opinion only
these use SEPA bank transfer which is fast and free of charge. Or am I wrong
and you can pay for free by this way from DK, UK etc, too?

  Hi there,

as many of other sellers I mark the box where parts are store in remarks field.

It would make the collecting job more effective when there would be a possibility
to order the order sheet by remarks. Especially when you have many lots in the
order.

Thanks,
Markus

It looks like this already exists in the settings section?

Thank you so much

  please add a field called LOCATION to the item inventory page when a seller lists
an item for sale.

This field should also be allowed to be displayed on orders received.

Currently I use the MY REMARKS field to hold the location of my items, but sometimes
I actually need this for remarks on the item itself so a dedicated field to hold
the location id would be a welcome addition.

a small text field of up to 25 characters should be enough.

Obviously this new field should then be searchable from the My Inventory page
and a seller should be able to sort pages and order items by location.



Emma

Hi,

I agree 100%! I use the remarks field for storage Location, too.

Hi,

at the "Add item to Wanted list" section:
I would suggest to keep the checkbox "Save Form Values" enabled when I checked
it. Afer reload the page with former data the box is disabled and when you forget
to enable it again then data are missing in the next step.

It makes work much easier when you add items in the same condition (etc) to the
same Wanted list.

Just a suggestions.

Thanks,
Markus

Hi,

since a while it is common that for example screenshots create png files. This
is a very common pictures file format and I would like to recommend to add it
to the uploadable file format.

  Is there a function already or can one be created where you can search for multiple
at a time to see which store carries them all?

Example: search for a head, a torso, and a plant part. The result tells you which
stores carries all three or 2/3.

I can't tell you how much time it would save from being on this site.

You can add these parts/sets to your wanted list and then you see it as you describe.
Herewith the function is already present. Just a bit circuitous.

  Getting to the message isn't the issue. Knowing someone commented would
be helpful. Maybe I am just too used to Facebook. Other forums I have used
you can click a box if you want future notifications on it so you wouldn't
need to get them for all of them you don't want. Maybe?

I would also happy to have an optinal checkbox to choose whether I want to get
messages or not.

is there and the checkbox doesn't change that. And yes, I have used the "submit"
button.

I have tried on multiple occassions to "notify" others of what is in my inventory.
Every time, the system times out with some sort of error.

Can I please just have the option to make this notice go away.

Thanks,

When I've run into this issue, (it can sometimes happen when you part out a set
with many parts even if you send out the notifications regularly) I just stockroom
any category that contains many lots in my store (brick, brick modified, plate,
plate modified, etc.) and then send out notifications for only the remainder.
If it still times out, stockroom a few more categories until it doesn't. Once
it works, un-stockroom the categories and re-send notifications.

Brock

Yes, I think that's the easiest way to avoid time out. Because I will upload
several parts and some thousand minifigs into my inventory within the next weeks.
To be able to offer all when it's ready I'll upload as Shockroom items first.
When it's done then I will un-shockroom a few categories only.
