| I just wonder how many of you are experiencing
the same problems with USPS?
- Media Mail very often is scanned 2-3 days
after dropping off at the post office
or not scanned at all. Is it only my local PO?
- I just dropped off a package on 1-3-2024
it was a Priority. It took 6 days to arrive
from IL to Texas like First Class.
Some time ago on Priority shipping label you got
delivery date and it was very accurate. Now it's gone
and it looks like they are doing whenever and whatever
they want
It's so frustrating

| It happen twice to me in my Post Office in Illinois.
I was told that person who was scanning mail just
hit the wrong button. Everything was delivered
but the status didn't change until it was delivered
or I asked the buyer if the package was delivered.
I don't remember exactly

| Hi, I´ve been having issues with my local USPS Office. at BLue Lagoon in MIAMI
They said DELIVERED individual picked it up at post office, but is not true,
I dnt live in the USA, I send all my stuff to a freight forward company, they
never go and pick up anything, and if they did they would require an ID
So they responded me and admitted is an issue on their system and they are not
being responsible of changing the status or responding for the missing item
What can I do?
thanks

| Hi,
some of the Bionicle pieces don't have
LEGO part number and have only letter C
or nothing at all.
The part on the picture has number 62386
when you will look closely. I bought a 40x
magnifying glass to be able to see part numbers
on some of them.
Bionicle parts are very challenging

| | First of all thanks for all the advice, I am very appreciative. So all I will
need to do that’s s different is fill out the “add deceleration” on shipstation?
If so this is much easier than expected, and I am very surprised.
Thanks, Noah

Yes that's all. When you'll choose different country than USA
you'll see the button "add declaration" Good luck!

| Hi Noah,
you can use ship station like for domestic shipping
if you want to. You'll only need to fill the custom form.
You'll see a large button "Add declaration" this is it.
You'll also see that in the declaration you need to
list all items with their weight. I just wrote down
"set of manuals" or "set of building bricks" and total weight.
I never had problem with doing it that way.
Sometimes I had problem with special symbols in the address.
I just worked it out.
You can do it. It's easy

| Hello,
I was wondering if anybody could give me a walkthrough of shipping internationally.
I plan on Shipping from U.S to Serbia to a reputable buyer. I was just wondering
if there is any additional work I need to do, or do I just simply use ship
station directly from Paypal's website like I normally do for Domestic shipping.
Also any tips and tricks would be helpful.
Thanks, Noah

Per the BL rules these do not qualify as they would be large assemblies. See
below:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=71
Items that should not be added to the catalog:
Rule 10:
Large part assemblies. - Large assemblies of parts that can be built into figures,
vehicles, or other structures often comprise a substantial portion of a set and
should not be added to the catalog. An exception has been made in the past for
some DUPLO vehicles representing fictional characters and some other large assemblies
with the Item Number prefix "spa" which were added as experiment.

Thank you.

I finally opened my store after almost 2 years being closed

Are there any settings where I can set it up? Or maybe there

I don't use Paypal to print labels, however I suspect what you needed to
do was to ship First Class Package, not First Class Mail which are letters and
carry no tracking. Hopefully your buyer isn't. hit with a postage due notice
when the order arrives.
If you are interested in shipping alternatives, try Pirateship.com. No fees but
you have to use a credit card to purchase postage. Lots of tutorials and IM help.
I love it.

I'm thinking about it. Thanks

First Class Mail is tracked as long as it's a parcel and not a letter. Perhaps
that cheaper option is for letter mail? What letter does the label you created
have on it? If it's an F then it's First Class (a P would indicate Priority
Mail).
|
You are right. I chose letter and it was treated as regular letter.
There was also no letter on the shipping label there was number "1".
Later I didn't choose letter and I got tracking.
Thank you!

| Hi Pat
That's my way of storing minifigs. I use it also for minifigs utensils.
It's 5000-Count Super Monster Storage Box for Trading and Gaming Cards.
That how it's called on Amazon But that's not the only place you can
find it
It stores a little more than 250 Maybe around 300 minifigs.
I put them in 3x4 "ziplock" bags and insert a piece of paper
with BL ID of the minifigure. I sort them in alphabetical order by BL ID.
Outside of the box I just put short description of what range is inside.

| When you have 2 or more manuals for one set
it would be very helpful to be able to choose
if I as a seller have complete set of books
or only particular ones.
Right now prices for multiple manuals in one set are messed up
because they single manuals and complete set of manuals
are treated as equal.
I think that separate entry for every single manual would be ideal.

|
2 parts #44809 in set #9398 are listed at the bottom of the inventory
as an alternate item. But alternate to what?...
We just bought a bulk of lego and took apart truck 9398 to check
what part are we missing. While building it we found out from
the manual that 2 parts 44809 are needed but I couldn't find them
in the BL inventory. And finally I found them at the bottom
as an alternate item but I can not find the other part in main
inventory.
Is it possible that 2 parts #44809 were put by mistake in the bottom
section for alternate items?
