  I've been curious about this 86368 piece, as it's listed as a minidoll
hair, although it has only been used twice, and once on a minifigure.

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=86368#T=C

It appears to me it is just a new mold for the same piece, 20595, used in the
CMF banshee, Elaine Benes in Seinfeld, and others.

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=20595#T=C


I just got my hands on both, and they appear to be identical. The images of
each model appear different, but I think they just are "shot" from a slightly
different angle/difference. Those differences are not present in the actual
pieces.

Could you share comparative photos of both?
  
Is there a way to link these pieces, as is done for minifigure heads (closed,
blocked, hollow stud), or ideally could these be merged, with multiple design
IDs, similarly to how solid color and trans color pieces are merged when they
have different design IDs?

I think this relationships is for similar patterns in the same type of parts,
not related to the figure itself.

  If I'm not mistaken, but BL also collects the 15% VAT from Venezuelian buyers.

Haven’t seen any info about it.  No anouncement.  Nothing in the Help pages (I
even checked before posting).  Another marketplace maybe?

Only info on next countries is about Canada and all the info we had can be summarized
as “soon.”

I really don't know where I've got this info from... let me check...

Mmmmh strange, can't find anything about this.
In fact it seems to be 16%.

Maybe it was written once and the page had been updated?
Help pages don't have a date picker to see the previous versions.
I don't know, but I'll search a bit more.

I don't think I remember such a thing talked here, just you the other day,
but I thought you were joking...

  Hi everyone,

I'm very new to BrickLink as was a hobby thought id start selling on here,
listed £2.3k worth of items yesterday only to login to see that I'm down
to £1.9k without selling anything it seems random parts have been taken down?

I'm finding this extremely annoying as spent hours yesterday sorting and
listing and now I don't know what is listed and what isn't.

If you know anything at all please let me know.

Many thanks, James

The daily changing xe.com currency conversion can show a different value.

The Site uses current exchange rates from XE.com to convert prices between the
below currencies. Exchange rates on the Site are downloaded from XE.com once
per day. Exchange rates provided by XE.com contain the rates and inverted rates
for the US Dollar as the base currency (ex. 1 USD = ? EUR and 1 EUR = ? USD).
Rates which do not include the US Dollar (ex. 1 EUR = ? GBP) are calculated using
a cross rate (ex. USD to GBP rate divided by USD to EUR rate). Rates contain
up to 10 decimals. The exchange rates on the XE.com website are updated more
frequently and thus the exchange rate on the XE.com website may not match the
exchange rate currently in effect on the Site. If the system fails to download
the most recent exchange rate, the most recent exchange rate in the system is
used.

His prices are in GBP so the total in GBP should not change if the exchange exchange
rate fluctuates.

And the difference is about 20%, so this has clearly nothing to do with currency
fluctuations.

Its not to do with money, I had a look and I'm missing quite a few figures?
is it a glitch, or do they take items down?

If BrickLink Admins deleted any lot form your store you should have received
an email for each, check your spam folder too.

Keep in mind minifigures need to be listed complete, if they are missing one
or more parts they can't be listed as a whole.

Check also your stockroom in case you listed the minifigs but changed them to
0qty or something like that.

How is this to handle with the OSS-system ?

Thanks in advance

Just remove the tick checkbox on the VAT column and the prices will be changed
to without VAT.

Thank you in advance


I think you need to pay back the money first, or set the status to "Pending".

Once an order in in Paid or Packed, you can't put it into pending, unless
there is something I am missing?

Try to change the payment status to Returned and update the refund inside the
order before.

  Hi, I'm wondering if there is a way to search for a certain piece and find
the seller with the most of them in total, no matter color or condition.

Let's just say I want as many 2x2 bricks as posible from one seller and I
dont care if they're new or used and also in any color.

BrickStore or the bush!

Sylvain-the-1001bricks-guy is convinced BrickStock can do everything, from doing
your taxes and painting your car to cooking your pizza with pineapple and mustard.

Niek.

Oh no no, but BrickStore yes.

  Hello,

wanted to cancel order (seller + buyer agreed)

System showing

There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.

What to do???
Thank you very much for help!
Norilyn

Have you tried leaving the comment blank? or trying later? Is the order with
US TAX or UK VAT? You might need to do the refund with the system BL has inside
the order to be able to cancel.

They look different

I think he means the difference is that in the second the difference is a 2x2
tile above the black 2x2 connector.

Also these share the same controller within the sets they appear.

  Hey guys,
I´ve got a question, can I post feedback for all my orders received in one go
because I need to open every single order and post the feedback its always 3
pages I need to click trough and its really annoying to do it on all orders,
is there a faster way to do it?

Best regards,

Just copy and paste your feedback

This link it below your orders received page as "Mass Feedback Post". Also your
browser most likely will remember your inputs in those fields and the next time
you just need to click in the field and your previous messages will appear to
autofill.

  Newbie here, was trying to part out a set, bought the parts that I could in bulk,
but they haven't come off the list. The parts i already bought are still
showing up when i'm trying to part out the rest.

Open the Wanted List you created from parting out a set and click the button
Apply Order, then select your order once to apply that qty bought to the Have
field of the Wanted List.

Comments from Submitter:
Purchased this ten years ago and can confirm that this set has the hollow stud variant.

Do you still have the box and can you give us the barcode?

Diana

Unfortunately, I do not have the box anymore. I did find these elsewhere:

UPC Barcode: 673419165648
EAN Barcode: 5702014831322

Thanks, but I can't do much with these numbers. The barcode could have given
us info about the time your set was produced. I asked about it, because it could
be the set came with the A-version first. So for a possible future change request
to add 4532a, we would already have your info for 4532b.

However...
4532a in lime was confirmed in a 2013 Friends Set and 4532b Lime is in a 2012
Friends Set.
Set 9457 was sold in 2012 only. So are you absolutely sure that this part is
not switched, but came in the set with Hollow Studs when you bought it?

Diana

Hello Diana,

I think you mean Factory Production Codes instead of Barcodes as it means something
different.

Here are a couple examples from 62Bricks (Don I think)

Now my IBAN payment method is no longer available for buyers, even though it's

or did I forget to do something?

It does work with no problem.

May depend the buyer's country/tax ?

Maybe you have this setting active?

This flag is yellow (with blue and red print). I'll post photo as a follow-up to this in the forum. Please switch the photo of the part from blue to yellow.

When Jon (axaday) submitted it under blue he said the back is actually yellow,
but nobody would search for it under yellow as the complete front background
is just blue.

I honestly don't know what to do right now. Maybe we should list it under
blue for one year, then switch to yellow for another year, and so on...?

I guess we could do it like

Can someone confirm the weight of 43180 ?

BL says it's 908 grams, I have a sealed box with me showing 606 grams.

Which weight is the correct one?

Kris - ADB

Brickset says 0.59Kg. I guess 908 was just a typo.

Also Amazon: 5.65 x 38.2 x 26.2 cm; 589 g

  Hi

I am shown "Seller does not support orders shipping to Germany." on store
BRICKBYBRICKEU. Same message in the cart, no button to place order, despite S&H
costs displayed as expected.

I'm asking, because...
- In the very recent feedback of the store I can see successful transactions
with other buyers in Germany
(multiple Bundesländer).
- The store is located in the Netherlands.
- Its Terms list shipping costs to Germany explicitely, via DHL.
- I recently changed my BL address to Germany (one day ago), as I live close
to Germany, to get better shipping rates.

Does anybody know the reason why I'm "blocked" to order from BRICKBYBRICKEU?
Any help appreciated.

The store: https://store.bricklink.com/BRICKBYBRICKEU#/terms

This is strange, in their profile I see the green square before the store name,
but inside the store below the name next to the country flag it says "Does Not
Ship To Me".

Also the message "Seller does not support orders shipping to Spain." appears
on top left and on the cart page, and global cart. But you can see it selects
the Dhl shipping method and with shipping costs shown, him also accepts PayPal
Onsite for international orders.

So... I don't know why it appears but there is happening something.

This might be related to the seller having activated the OSS setting but without
activating the VAT setting.

But this store is the same but shows no warning message:
