You make a compelling case and I think LBG is certainly more accurate than sand

Why not make sure that every buyer has to use the instant checkout? That should
solve your problem.
|
And what about non instant payment methods like IBAN/Cash/etc. Auto-checkout
with non instant payment methods will still cause a problems... If autocheckout
becomes more of a 'standard', part of the problem will be solved, but
not 'all', so those should have shorter timeframes depending on 'method'
(and IMHO it should be flexible and a seller setting, not a site wide setting)

The site does not run on volunteers, only the forum and the catalog does (translators

There have been almost 1.3 million orders in the last 12 months. At a $40 per
order average, that's $52,000,000. The 3% fee on that is $1,560,000 USD.
|
Average order is much lower
|
Most likely yes, It's probably $40 (or more) on average for a very small
amount of sellers. The large batch of smaller and average sized sellers probably
have average orders between the $10 and $30. This drops the total amount of montly
charged fees quite a bit...
Besides, even if it would be the case, 1,5 M is not 'several million'
And certainly not enough to have a 30 or 40 persons staff (about 10-12 now?)around
if one counts all people (including cadmins/IA's/moderators).
Count servers and offices and computers, phonelines, Inet, softwares, cellphones,
cars maybe, and dozens of other costs, then taxes, and even a couple of million
ain't enough to have such a crowd around, even if only part of the crowd
would be on 24/7 service

When posts are 'tagged' by members all moderators get a message asking
to review it, that's a matter of minutes to half an hour, an hour sometimes,
depending on the moderators occupations...
So how hard can it be to disallow new members (FB less then 3, e.g.) to post
new threads by sending a messages to the moderators 'please review this new
thread before this goes public'.
And limit members with less then 3 FB's (again, e.g.) so they only can post
1 'reply' per hour.
And give the ability to moderators to 'tag' a member so they need to
review messages from that member before it goes public (handy in case of 'noticed'
problems by any moderator).
This is simple IF / THEN / ELSE programming...

Bottomline: warn the Inv.Admin(s) to not approve on these changes...
The different torso variations could be dealt with in another way (I'm willing
to share my ideas on it), but it would need some thinking 'trough' and
it would need adjustements from/by the site developers to be able to keep the
current listings and still make it 'more obvious' for collectors to have
a 'guideline' on torso variations and thus without messing up the inventories
or peoples listings. Sitewise it would be prerable to give this a big 'freeze'
untill something is set up where all 'parties' can be comfortable with.

May I ask what the difference is on this 'Inside with ribs' torsos compared
to the same torsos that are 10 years old?
|
The original torsos first appeared in 1994, so those are ~23 years old. The torsos
back then had short ribs inside the torso (like a jumper with bottom stud holder)
instead of the long ribs that appeared around 1998 and continue into today. Therefore,
there would be no difference between a modern torso and one 10 years ago, but
there would be a difference between a modern torso and the original version of
this torso. I believe this helps to set up a nice precedent to get more modern
torsos with classic prints into the catalog, so that vintage minifigs and modern
minifigs both have the proper torso mold for the time period they were released.
Cheers,
Randy
|
The large X-rib on that particular torso has been around for at least 8 years...
So what is the intention? Change the inventories of all the minfigs attached
to it 
That would cause quite a lot of problems with listed ones, which means new minifigs
would need to be created, old ones marked for deletion, and the same would need
to be done with the torsos themselves...
And then some of you wanna do the same for hundreds of minifigs
I think it would be a really bad precedent, as it's gonna clutter up to catalog
if done 'the right way'. And any other way is gonna mess up peoples listings.
Count to that the many figs that might have been made with both torsos (transitions
periods) and it's gonna be hell to manage it, not to mention it's gonna
mess peoples collections who have figs sorted 'by number', when suddently
they are going to be renumbered or marked for deletion, and +20% of minifigs
will need to be added in catalog...
The catalog should not handle such (and that was Dan's desire as he made
the initial rules about minifigs), people can handle that for themselves if they
want to.
This is a marketplace in the first place, not a 'collectors database'
place, there are other sites for that...

Quite right: too many people are just naive in those regards...
I recently got a mail that I considered 'strange', after reading about
10 words I dropped it in the trash can.
2 days later the receivers have been notified it was a 'test' and the
results where this:
Out of near 6000 receivers, 668 people (so over 10%) tought they could actually
'cash in' a bit of money for free by replying to the mail, about 2% actually
even provided 'personal details' in the reply.
Crazy...
Compare this to a website like BL with 613000 registered users, and you have
12260 users who might actually fall for such crap. Even if the amount of 'active
users' is only 20% of the registered members (so 122600) there is still a
potential of 2450 members who'd jump right in on offers that are 'too
good to be true'.

Reasonably sure that's not true.

Correct, sellers do need to know 'some' stuff about the country they
are 'exporting' to, as of certain thresholds (mainly over 15~18000 Euro),
they might need to 'register' in the 'receiving' country to avoid
'issues'. But the chances anyone here is exporting more then 15~18000
Euro (per year) to 1 country is quite slim...
Besides that one needs to know what is allowed and what not (not just talking
about palstic toys here), and how it needs to be presented... (return label on
front or back, CN22/CN23, invoices/billings needed above 800 Euro, pro-forma
bills, etc, etc)
Limiting oneself to 'I only need to know what my country expects/allows'
is not good enough.
So it's handy to have a forum, quite a good place to pick up some details

The 'cash cow' ain't the postal services, it's 'customs' aka
governments), the postal services just run (aka advance it) on behalf on the
person they have to deliver it to, so yes you pay the 'postal service'
as they deliver it, but they already paid it to 'customs'.
In Belgium, Bpost even sometimes charges a cost (depending on the 'advanced'
amount) for doing the 'advanced' payment to the customs department...
Add the VAT, add handling, add 'duty' and it can be a 'killer'...
And it's no longer a 'slight chance', it's quite 'systematic'

All the EU countries you state *can* charge 'import taxes' and as a matter

22 Euro, every order above that value is subject for 'import costs and/or
VAT' depending on value and content (and always a 'handling' cost

| We used to have just 1 or 2 or 3 'payment methods' but as time goes by,
new payment methods are added to the site and one can only suspect this might
even grow in time.
Yet our 'invoice' template remains quantity '1'.
Now every 'payment method' has it's characteristics, and this implicates
that the 'template data' (whatever it contains) must be 'altered'
when sending an invoice.
Obviously the details in the invoice will differ when the payment method changes:
Paypal (manual and/or a link), paypal onsite (Pay button), IBAN (Iban/Bic details),
Stripe (PAY link), Cash(no COD): Provide cash on pickup, Money order: Please
to...
Basicly, sellers need to keep their 'head' together when sending an invoice...
and even if they have a 'template' containing all options, they still
need to remove/add lines to make it clear for buyers 'what' they need
to do.
The easiest solution: A template for each 'payment method'. It's
2017, where getting closer to 2020, time to evolve and time to add some features
that are 'usefull' IMHO
Thanks for reading

Old feedbacks, including negatives and neutrals, can give you an idea on who
your dealing with and tell buyers whether there is 'pattern' when something
goes wrong.
If BL would purge those negatives and neutrals, then they would need to do that

Can we get BrickLink to only accept "Cash" payments on an order if that buyer's
postal code is on a seller-selected list? I don't know how postal codes
work in other countries, but in the US (and Canada to, I think) the zip code
gets more specific as you go from left to right. So for example, using wildcard
characters, I could allow cash payments from anyone in Lincoln, NE with a single
entry: 685**.
|
Sounds complicated, as BL would need to split the 'national buyers' into
thousands of states and provinces all around the world, with the option the be
able to select 'multiple' regions in 'multiple' countries (I've
had international buyers picking up orders because they only live about 100 miles
away - I'm in a small country-)
Deactivate 'Cash' if you don't want the hastle, people who wanna
pickup will usually send a mail anyway after seeing your address (and usually
that is *after* they already made the purchase), so just leave in a non instant
payment method (Paypal onsite 'only' would be a problem)

In all fairness to myself: the item number at the end of the existing entry is
wrong, it is possibly inventoried in the wrong sets (unless included as an alternate,
since both sets had their own instruction booklets), it does not have the 1090/1092
identifiers in the item number or title, the year is missing, and the title does
not include the words written on the front of the booklet. All of these things
together made it difficult to locate and I've submitted change requests to
fix the entry.
But I'm only making excuses, am I not? I have failed and can certainly understand
your disappointment in seeing your hero stagger drunkenly away from perfection
toward ineptitude.

It is the ultimate disappointment when it comes down to your catalog actions,
it is extremely frustrating seeing someone mess up the catalog like that, 'sorry'
is not an acceptable excuse, you should now stop contributions for the rest of
the year and meditate about it, then come back next year and start with an apology,
then 'maybe', just 'maybe' we'll forgive. BUT: we're
not going to forget (just to be clear)

Comments from Submitter:
I currently have 3 original Used copies of this set. Each was purchased from its original owner. All 3 versions have the "Thin U Clip" variant (Part 4085b) of all 8 Medium Blue Plate Modified 1x1 with Clip Vertical. This coincides with its appearance in the Grand Carousel that same year. Some of the last produced copies might contain part variant 4085d, but I believe these to be extremely rare. Please change this variant appearance to Alternate.
|
If you look at the logs, the 'regular' and 'alternate' have been
changed 3 times so far (and so this is the 4th one *sigh*).
How hard can it be to 'invetory' a set with a certain type (first one
found by the sumitter of the inventory), and then simply add alternates along
the way
The b, c, d, versions of this part are being found randomly in sets and there
isn't a clear call as to 'when' LEGO uses them, as it depends which
'plant' produces them and 'where' TLG stocks them...
I found all 'd' types in my copy of the winter holiday train, except
1, which was a 'b' type. I assume a few where at the bottom of TLG's
storage box... Why? because TLG doesn't differentiate them and put's
tem all together

Yes I have, but as I said this is not quite right. The original minifigure has
the solid stud head, and the newest ones had the blocked open stud
|
The notes say that early copies have the solid stud head, so it's the same
as you said, just differently worded.
|
As far as I know, minifigs are inventoried with the first head they are 'found'
with.
This means that if someone finds it with a 'b' type head first, then
the fig get's inventoried with that head (alltough it is possible many more
figs are found with the 'c'type head). Occasionaly figs are found with
a 'c' type, and later on people find the 'b' type of heads, but
the figs remain with 'c' type, as that's how they are first found
with...
Following that logic, the 'a' type was 'before' the 'b'
type, so the first one found, is 'a' type, the 'b' type for this
particular fig came much much later. It has only been recently BL inventory admins
started to approve changes from 'b' to 'a' type 'still whished
there would be the 'alternate' head option), so from a logic point of
view the request should be 'approved' by the IA's and the cadmins
should change the note towards Y2K re-issues would carry a 'blocked open
stud', as it would better fit the timeline and current 'policy' on
the heads.
my 2 cents

What do you mean? That's what Paypal Onsite is.

Never mind, I think Ray stopped reading about new features in 2014
Sorry, Ray, but in another thread people already explained to you that there
is no involvemend between BL and PP, it is simply a sellers setting, you 'hook'
your Paypal account to your store and offer your buyers a 'PAY' button,
the rest is API calls between BL and PP
An API works like a phonecall:
BL dials PP
Hi PP, this is BL, we have one of our members who bought from one of our sellers,
and we would like to use your service to do the payment transaction.
PP: OK, send us the details...
BL: Sellers PP email is:xxxxx, amount is xxx, currency is xx
PP: OK, thanks, we'll send the details to the buyer for confirmation.
PP: hello buyer, please login in and press confirm on this 'presetted'
transaction.
Buyer (logs in): OK, go ahead
PP hangs up and calls BL
PP: Hi BL, payment has been transferred, order can be set as 'paid'.
BL: Thank you, we'll do so right away...
This is what 'PP onsite' is about, I stopped using 'regular PP'
over a year ago.
And buyers still 'mess up' because not all sellers are using this method
 
and so buyers don't get 'used' to it (reason they mess up)

I would like to suggest a way of preventing this. Maybe we can have an option

[ ] reserve items in a quote to be reserved for that specific buyer
Maybe this options should be ENABLED for everyone by default (new and existing
stores).
Saso

Voted No.
As with any items in a store, first one who check out gets the item...
Automaticly reserving something for a buyer has the inconveniance that an item
is 'blocked' for other buyers, nice, but not all buyers 'getting
a quote' check out, so during that time items would be 'blocked'
(imagine the potential abuse by competitor sellers of certain items).
What needs to be changed on BL is that when an item from an existing quoted cart
has been purchased by another buyer, the existing cart is simply 'adjusted'
and the potential buyer would need to be able to checkout on the cart 'minus'
the item(s) that went to another buyer.
Such functionality works perfect on BO, BL just hasn't figured out 'how'
to implement it after near 2 years now...

there has been a time when MSRP was 'mentioned' in the menus, I'm
glad (and many others with me) it got removed. MSRP is different in different
parts of the world and is only a guideline / valid when a set is still *actively*
running. Once it's end-of-life it becomes irrelevant what MSRP *used to be*,
so it would require active 'control' over the database and the priceguide
and even that wouldn't be accurate, as end-of-life ain't equal in all
regions at the same time... So it's falsified data that has no place whatsoever
on a selling website, such data is available on 'non commercial' websites,
quite fine IMHO.

No...
and yes...
For startes, BL allows 'individuals' to have each their account, so within
a household it is perfectly possible husband and wife (or husband and husband
or wife and wife) to have each their account, even an adult 'kid' of
both can have his/her account.
And as a matter of fact, I know several households who each have their account
and some even their own shop... There are also members who have accounts which
are registered differently, one as an individual, one as a 'company',
also perfectly possible.
It is clear these situations must be mentioned to the adminstration, to avoid
conflicts, particulary in regards to IP matching...
Now your case seems a bit different... The secondary account is in your wifes
name, but she didn't actually opened the account, you did, as you clearly
state 'I set up' and 'I created' and 'she never uses it',
so technicly it is not 'her' account, it is your account and you just
used her name (hopefully with her consent, otherwise it's theft of identity
LOL), so the purpose of that account is in conflict with the ToS. I would strongly
suggest to shut down that account (= unregister), particulary if it was only
for testing purposes when you first opened, so not much point to keep it around
anyway

of course, that's even worse than what you describe.)

As far as I know, they do stay, unless something changed in those regards since

they shouldn't).

In thee case of the person who prompted this suggestion, I think that they removed
both feedbacks themselves after the problem was noted in that thread.

That is indeed the other option, but both? And *after* the merge (or was it done
before the merge)? The feedback removal system allows to choose 'feedback
I posted', but if an account was merged in the mean while, does it mean both
feedbacks are removed at the same time, or only the one as a seller (as the main
account would be the seller). I'd love to find out, but without active testing
(which would imply to create another account), it won't be easy to figure
it out

Regardless, I agree with the suggestion.

My suggestion is that when such a merge includes feedback that it becomes a negative

intentions.
P.S. My only concern is that it may be pointless as the member would just create
a different account to sell under. Thoughts?

I wouldn't go by images too much and rather stick to 'owned sets'
before making such changes. Images are made months before actual release and
setlayouts are made from 'stock' items of the designers, but that doesn't
mean there can't be a differences 'in production'
I suggest you have a look here, to stick to the timeline in regards to head versions:

And that timeline is pretty accurate when compared to actual setcontents

if you want to change the quantity, you need to update the existing lot, your

So your request line should be:

I agree that based on available instructions there are only 13, but considering

I would leave it like that untill a real comparison is made and it might be wise
