Ah ok, I understand. Has this ever happened to one of you guys? If one is unlucky
and a package gets lost in transit, is it right to just take the loss as a seller
if this situation occurs, or should one try to get PayPal to refund the payment?

The odd package will sometimes go missing or buyer falsely claims to go missing
but its very rare on Bricklink compared to other platforms.
Whilst it may be wise to insure high value orders I wouldn't be overly concerned
with regular orders because even if you are so unlucky to find 1 in every 10
orders goes missing (it will actually be far, far less than this)
If you do the maths and lets say each order averages $10 in value. 10 orders
= $100 in total sales revenue. One missing order drops that total sales revenue
down to $90 split across 10 orders = receiving around $9 per order instead of
$10 per order so in reality its not going to hurt you as much as you think.
Obviously I've not taken into consideration any actual profits/cost of stock
and any added costs to ship out replacements etc, etc... but the fact that we're
actually probably talking about less than 1 in 100 orders going missing more
than covers any losses you may incur

Hi! Could you tell me a bit more about what the term claim means in this situation?
Is it some internal process here on Bricklink for when a buyer/seller has a disagreement,
or is it a third-party thing?

Buyers filling claims is a rare situation. It’s something talked about a lot
yet rarely happens. I’ve only had 1 filled against me before which I won so I
wouldn’t worry about them that much. (And that is with 75%+ of all my orders
being shipped without tracking). So in general yes, if a buyer messages you saying
that the package hasn’t arrived and it’s been a reasonable amount of time since
it was sent (say a month/month and a half) then it’s best to just refund them
as a cost of doing business and move on. Pretty much all of those cases are legitimate
and not a scam and if you don’t refund they likely will file a claim which unless
you can prove it was delivered they will always win and then if the claim succeeds
you’ll often get an addition fee from PayPal of like $20 or something. Packages
getting lost isn’t to to rare itself, I’d say 1:500 to 1:1000 of mine never show
up to the buyer but most of them end up getting returned to me after a couple
months so I’d say maybe 1:2500+ seem to fully disappear off the face of the planet
so don’t worry it’s not like it’s a coin flip if you send someone an untracked
package

| Hi everyone.
I have built up a decent collection of Lego sets and miscellaneous parts over
the years. Figured I'd try opening a Bricklink store and see where this goes.
My store is based in Norway, but I'm selling domestically and internationally.
I estimate that I have somewhere around 50 000 parts, maybe more, and I'll
be aiming to upload some every day given the opportunity.
I would truly appreciate any feedback you might have for my store, whether it
be related to payment, shipping or other terms. Whatever crosses your minds.
Thank you in advance. Hope everyone had a great Easter!

Hi,
It is now showing $4.50 for the small letter plus the the handling fee, so $3.00
plus $1.50.
This is correct pricing when the letter rate goes up on April 3rd.
However, until then, you want to put it back down to the current rate, so $2.40
plus $1.50.
So put the pricing down to the current rate and then change up to this rate on
April 3rd.
Hopefully this makes sense.
I am happy to check again for you once you change it. Leave another message
in the forum.

| Hey,
Your small letter postage calculation seems incorrect. A small letter is $2.40,
plus you have a $1.50 packing fee. So should be $3.90 in total. When i added
1 minifigure to my cart it said a total of $3.70.
Also, note that letter shipping in Australia will be increasing to $3.00 for
a small letter in a couple of weeks, on April 3rd. A stamp will be going up
to $1.50 each.
Cheers

I noticed you have
"Used: Parts and minifigures marked as used may have minimal wear. This may
include, but is not limited to: scratches, slight discoloration, dents, small
cracks etc."
but if your used item has cracks you should always say so in the individual item
description.
also you have
"we cannot be held responsible for lost mail or parcels sent overseas without
insurance or tracking. The risk of a lost item is borne by the buyer."
which you should remove/change as the seller is always responsible for the package
until its delivered even if you never bought insurance or tracking.

In your terms you say “Currently there is no S&H fee.” so does that mean it’s
free shipping? S&H is shipping and handling so (presumably) you do actually charge
shipping and you may want to update it so buyers don’t get confused

My new store "Brick Sauce" - the sauce for all your bricks (or at least
maybe some of them) - is now open and ready to serve.
Right now we have around 18,000 new parts, with lots more on the way. Over the
coming weeks we'll also be adding used parts.
For what it's worth we'll be shipping most orders in boxes - only the
smallest, non-fragile orders will go in bubble mailers. Perhaps not necessary,
but we believe in taking care of the small things. Orders containing only paper
products (ie stickers, instructions etc) will be shipped with care in a board-backed
envelope or similar. Although we're new to selling here on BrickLink (and
obviously our feedback reflects that), we have several years experience selling
non-lego (and often fragile) items on other marketplaces, so we understand how
to package an order with care.
We ship daily Monday to Friday, and shipping is a flat rate of $4.99 - orders
of $50 and up ship free! Right now we're only shipping within USA, but are
hoping to get international shipping set up shortly.
Hope to see you soon!

With that out of the way, a little about me - I'm Justin, originally Welsh

cost of new sets. I've just finished 10274 Ecto-1, currently building 10304
'69 Camaro (with some extra parts on the way to change the stripe colour),
and have my eye on a little red Corvette 10321! (Yeah, I guess there's a

| Greetings!
My new store "Brick Sauce" - the sauce for all your bricks (or at least
maybe some of them) - is now open and ready to serve.
Right now we have around 18,000 new parts, with lots more on the way. Over the
coming weeks we'll also be adding used parts.
For what it's worth we'll be shipping most orders in boxes - only the
smallest, non-fragile orders will go in bubble mailers. Perhaps not necessary,
but we believe in taking care of the small things. Orders containing only paper
products (ie stickers, instructions etc) will be shipped with care in a board-backed
envelope or similar. Although we're new to selling here on BrickLink (and
obviously our feedback reflects that), we have several years experience selling

Hi,
I think there’s a translation problem. What’s in sets and polybags are “instructions,”
“manual,” “leaflet” (instrukcja obsługi, ulotka, broszura…).
What the admins want is a general newspaper, like Fakt or Gazeta Wyborcza….
Something that can prove the picture is recent.
You know, like in movies when kidnappers want to prove the person they kidnapped
is still alive. They want to be sure your LEGO is still alive today

line in your terms as sellers are fully responsible for all packages they ship
out. insurance is for the seller, not the buyer.
also you have

shipped will be marked completed and closed by the seller if no contact is made."
which you should never do. many buyer might not get to their order for months

1) Buyer leaves positive feedback, but doesn’t change the order status from “Shipped”
2) Buyer leaves positive feedback and changes the status to “Received” thinking
that’s it. Fairly common, actually.
3) Buyer contacts seller thanking them for the LEGO and offers praise of service
and/or product, without changing the status from “Shipped” or “Received”.
4) Buyer and seller are in communication over an order issue, which concludes
with the buyer expressing complete satisfaction with the transaction, again without
bothering to change the status.
In short, there's a good many LEGO fans that simply don’t know, don’t
care or don’t care to know about 'order status duties’ Many just wish to
buy LEGO and that’s it. Which is fine. The changing of order status by the seller
just helps a vendor to clean things up a bit, to stay organized.
|
Good points. I think that after 30 days if a buyer has not changed the order
status to "Complete" then they probably will fall under the category
'dont care' and will not care if the seller changes the status to complete.
Jim

to a point maybe but even then I still on many occasions have buyers update it
months later. for example today just now a buyer finally marked an order from
September as complete and just the other day I had an order from November marked
as complete. some buyers just take their time and it can be frustrating if the
seller does it

I see this
“No tracking and no responsibility for lost mail”
In your terms which you may want to update. Sellers are fully responsible for
all the packages they ship out so if a package without insurance and/or tracking
is sent out and gets lost you will have to fully refund the buyer
|
Oh, I forgot to write that I will refund the order, but in some stores I saw
negative reviews because of lost packages that got refunded.
|
Those negative reviews were in spite of the refund, not because of the refund.
Not refunding in these circumstances could get you an NSS and PayPal claim against
you in addition to negative feedback.
|
I already changed that, I now have a letter with Traceable shipping for $5.49

The question is: Why does the seller care?
Do you anxiously follow all your orders and packages every day? Maybe small
stores / new stores, can do that… but does a big store has time to do that?
|
Yes, that'd seem crazy to me.
I never checked any tracking (apart if buyer ask me to), even at the beginning
of the shop.
And what for, especially while tracking can be completely false?
Just a story:
* One+ month ago, have an important DHL Express (courrier, expensive) to arrive
here.
* Couple days ago received an e-mail like "Success, delivered"! It was
for us to arrive, but nobody have seen it. We checked on line, the signee name
was unknown, neither its signature.
* We opened an inquiry at DHL. Papers to sign, bit of a pain.
* While this, we ordered the same thing another time to get it. Received fine
this time, nrxt or couple of days later, as expected.
* That was weeks ago. Yesterday (I swear) we sudenly received the first missing
order, never delivered. It took 1 month (for a next day delivery).
I guess driver signed it as he was to deliver it, the forgot, then the parcel
was forgotten in a warehouse...
Both tracking, signee and signature were lying, status was (and remains) incorrect.
Please sellers do your seller job: ship.
Then leave the IRL status to who's able to determine if it's received
or completed, or what they wish including not changing it.

I’d think they just send the order and wait to hear from the buyer if there’s
a problem. Then they can look into tracking or whatever.
What would a seller about orders that went well? I think it’s a situation where
the adage “no news is good news” applies.

1) Buyer leaves positive feedback, but doesn’t change the order status from “Shipped”
2) Buyer leaves positive feedback and changes the status to “Received” thinking
that’s it. Fairly common, actually.
3) Buyer contacts seller thanking them for the LEGO and offers praise of service
and/or product, without changing the status from “Shipped” or “Received”.
4) Buyer and seller are in communication over an order issue, which concludes
with the buyer expressing complete satisfaction with the transaction, again without
bothering to change the status.
In short, there's a good many LEGO fans that simply don’t know, don’t
care or don’t care to know about 'order status duties’ Many just wish to
buy LEGO and that’s it. Which is fine. The changing of order status by the seller
just helps a vendor to clean things up a bit, to stay organized.
|
Good points. I think that after 30 days if a buyer has not changed the order
status to "Complete" then they probably will fall under the category
'dont care' and will not care if the seller changes the status to complete.

Thanks, Jim. You put it even better.

Just a heads up, you haven't got your payment method correct. I added something

Have you ticked all the boxes on your shipping methods to activate them?

Those negative reviews were in spite of the refund, not because of the refund.
Not refunding in these circumstances could get you an NSS and PayPal claim against
you in addition to negative feedback.

Over the course of this discussion, I have come across some good arguments for
doing things one way or another, which will in turn help me and anyone else reading
it to make ever more informed choices. It's very evident that eveyone's
own experience has been different, and that not everything is plainly black or
white. To think, it all started from a simple announcement that my store is now
open, having since morphed into something else entirely. Hopefully, someone along
the way will actually take an interest in the inventory.

If the "Completed" status is for Buyers only, why are sellers allowed
to change it?
Any graybeards care to weigh in?

The Complete status is for Buyers. Leave it alone. Your research led you in the
wrong direction. There is no reason or benefit for a seller to mark an order
complete. If it bothers you just file it.

Just a heads up you have this
“ Orders not marked as completed by the buyer within 30 days of being marked
as shipped by the seller will, barring any additional communication, automatically
be closed under the assumption that the transaction went smoothly.”
In your terms. You should never ever marked an order complete unless it is an
order you placed. Yes sellers have the option to mark an order as complete but
it should never be done. Only the buyer can truly know when it’s done. I’ve placed
orders and it’s multiple times taken multiples weeks+ to go thru them and if
the seller marked it as complete and messed it up or annoyed a buyer that can
result in a buyer leaving negative feedback. Yes many orders will never be marked
as received or complete and even more will never have feedback left buts it’s
ok none are required and you don’t need to worry about it if you don’t want
to see the order you can file it and it will disappear

Well, thank you for the suggestions, everyone. In light of some details I had
not initially been made aware of, I've relaxed the wording in the terms somewhat.
However, I don't think it's unreasonable to set some expectation
on the part of the buyer, whether or not they choose to honour it. I will stick
to filing orders rather than actually completing them, now that it's been
made clear that this isn't a required step.

While I appreciate this copy-and-paste from some of your other posts, this consideration
was not an arbitrary one. I did my research before setting up the store, and
this was something I gleaned from those with more experience than me. It's
specifically there in the terms to set the expectation beforehand and will only

This means buyers will just go straight to PayPal and file their complaint there,
without giving you the opportunity to resolve it. That could end up costing you
significantly more than replacing or refunding whatever the problem is.

Hitting people up for feedback or to mark their orders as complete is a very
bad idea, unless you don't mind a few neutral/negative feedbacks from doing
so.

Best of luck with many unhappy customers 🤷♂️ even a guy with over 50k feedback
says it’s a bad idea. You said “gleaned from more experience then you” but not
ever seller has the right terms. Countless stores say they arnt responsible for
lost shipments yet they are fully responsible as an example.
