Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - SylvainLS (46)

[...] First, “IBAN” is a misnomer, it’s just bank transfers, to be precise, an International (not only EU) standard for Bank Account Numbers (i…b…a…n…!). It’s [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Teup (6595)

[...] From what I understand, several countries have their own preferred interfaces for IBAN transactions. Outside Bricklink my Dutch customers pay by iDEAL and my Belgian [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - jennnifer (3532)

[...] Yes, I think there is overwhelming evidence that many sellers did not receive the message from BrickLink regarding how the sales tax deployment directly affected their [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Emporiosa (5533)

[...] Oh right, Stripe does do debit/bank as well. Works fantastic on BrickOwl for myself as well. I still get folks that like to do the Interac E-transfer method (for [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Emporiosa (5533)

[...] Just food for thought (although not even sure I like this solution, haven't read into it much), but in Canada the primary "debit" method that folks use is [...]

[...] It is not Bricklink it is the SELLERS you are choosing. Bricklink is following the law.

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - NelisSolis (3753)

[...] Same here, I haven't had problems on BrickOwl with any of the Stripe integrations for local or regional instant bank payments.

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Teup (6595)

[...] IBAN is offsite but it can be used with instant checkout. For offsite payment methods, instant checkout is just an automatic invoice.

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Teup (6595)

[...] Difficult and potentially unstable? :? How so? BrickOwl doesn't seem to have that problem, and neither do I in my own website. It works perfectly, just use Stripe. [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Vosblokjes (7197)

[...] What Bricklink could do is inform all sellers that since mid last year they need an onsite payment option to sell to (almost all) US buyers. And inform them that [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Admin_Russell

[...] The problem is that we (BrickLink) cannot pay those taxes unless the seller chooses to use an onsite payment method. We cannot force sellers to make this choice, [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - jdinklage (990)

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - jdinklage (990)

[...] The whole purpose of me bothering to write this in the suggestion forum is exactly to find a solution to this problem. I am trying to do so.

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - jdinklage (990)

[...] Just in case it wasn't clear-I have no problem with the taxes. I have a problem that Bricklink won't allow me to complete a transaction with many stores at [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - peregrinator (772)

Sellers (those who have enabled onsite payments) are not paying your taxes at all, they are simply enabling BrickLink to collect and remit those taxes on their behalf [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - Admin_Russell

[...] It is possible in theory to incorporate IBAN into an onsite solution, but apparently it is very difficult and potentially unstable. So we consider IBAN to be offsite [...]

Re: Bigger Image Thumbnails for Easier Browsing - jennnifer (3532)

[...] Actually, I think that browsing is much more efficient with the small thumbnails as long as the images are good enough. Larger images would only mean a lot more scrolling. [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - peregrinator (772)

[...] That's correct - I think 2017 was the cutoff from what I've read here in the forums. I switched to a seller account just last year and never had a choice off [...]

Re: Bigger Image Thumbnails for Easier Browsing - hsousas (10)

[...] I agree, it's a pain. And the bandwidth is not that much, just move the images to a static-serving webserver.

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - jennnifer (3532)

[...] Well, you will be fine as long as you offer an onsite payment method. Paypal can be used onsite and offsite. I don't believe that you can offer offsite methods as [...]

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - cosmicray (3490)

[...] The trick there, is that IC only supports PP and Stripe. You can't do IBAN with IC and collect the sales tax. Nita Rae

Re: Lego/Bricklink-Very frustrated with you - roguemjr (16)

Jen, I just got approved to sell, but have not opened yet. Where can I go to look at this info in the forums? I am not familiar with what is being talked about here. I only [...]
