  Hello Fellow Bricklinkers,

I have got some cheap second hand sets from a seller. I got the Lego Tower of
Orthanc 10237. Th set has a lot of elements on add angles angles and this has
resulted in dust gathering.

Some of the 16 tooth peices have gathered almost half a centimetre of dust. Others
like the floors of the building, (namely the basement) have gathered LAYERS of
dust and even after washing the baseplates the dust is still there.

I have also tried swabbing them with cotton balls.

I really need a way to remove the layers of dust. Anything help will be much
appreciated.

Thanks,
The Cute Giraffe

A good shower head / hose usually does the trick for me.

  Paypal now shows a big ugly banner, saying they will automatically switch from
"Paypal shipping" to "netParcel shipping" on June 1.

Currently, when we ship small orders to the US, we use the regular Canada Post
"small packet" service, which (for under 100gr) would cost around CAD 8.50.

We hooked up our Canada Post account to netParcel, and tried to ship a small
order to the US. The "small packet" service is no longer available, the cheapest
option would be UPS Standard 4 days for just over CAD 14 (so a CAD 6 raise in
shipping cost).

Am I missing something here? Or will we need to raise our shipping rates?

Niek.

You could use Canada Post's website I suppose...

Tyson.

Have you tried any international shipments yet Niek?

We currently only ship domestically and to the US. But I can do a quote request
in netParcel tomorrow if you like.

As for the missing US "small packet" - it still shows up in SnapShip (for now?).

Niek.

Shipstation doesn't interact with BrickLink - you'll have to update the
tracking # manually. The best way to do this is to edit the order to put in the
tracking number (use the "Edit Order" link at the bottom of the order detail
page), then use a macro in your drive thru template.

I thought it had to be done manually.

What I do:

I activated the tracking number field on the orders received page where I copy/paste
the tracking # from PayPal. I also used the macro tag in the drive through notice,
so that it automatically populates the number into the message sent to the buyer.

  and it was missing a large portion of the parts. I ordered a used vahki set from
the seller "YoHoser" from their store "HitDaBrix" and when it arrived it was
missing the head, hip piece, upper torso, and lower legs and several parts I
also ordered were either incorrect or damaged. Shouldn't the seller list
a item as incomplete if its missing parts? what constitutes a complete set? I'm
fairly new to brick link but I would assume that complete meant the set its self
is fully intact. The worst of it is that when I tried to reach out to the seller
I find he has shut down his store conveniently the day my order arrived apparently
going on "vacation" for the month. Is he allowed to do claim a set is complete
when its missing several important parts along side sending me unspecified as
damaged parts? if it isn't how can I report this behavior I cant find any
option to do so anywhere?

the image uploaded is my supposedly complete Vahki set.


so slight update. I got in contact with him and we started talking but he was
very dismissive and denying of any mistake asking if I was confused if I had
the "right store/set" then he got the set number completely wrong when he was
talking about how he inventoried set almost as if he was making stuff up on the
spot. I pointed out that he had got the set number wrong he just seemingly completely
stop responding. I don't know where to go to from here. I'm not even
all that angry any more just dissapointed.

  Hello All,

It's with a heavy heart that I am forced to leave you all for a while. No
idea in the foreseeable future when I will back. Know I will miss this place,
the members and playing with Lego!

If you aren't there already, many of you will be one day. I am in pretty
intense elder care mode. I have been for 10+ years, but with age comes the increasing
need for intervention in all things. My mother just turned 94, amazing. She still
lives alone in our family home and I want to keep it that way until I/she can't.
It is a pretty exhausting time and emotionally intensive job. What was 1 day
a week is now 4, and constantly on call for problems. The home infrastructure
is also crumbling - so scrambling for contractors for many issues - and we all
know the pain that can be.

One day, I will have time again and hoping I still have the stamina/knowledge
to make a presence once more.

all the best, Judith

Good luck to you. I know the demands of caring for others. I had my mentality
and physically handicapped brother-in-law. My time was no longer my time. He
was a handful and died when Covid just started. He was one of the reason I sold
my little Lego collection. It was worth it.
Your mother is very lucky she has a good child. You will be proud of what you
are doing. Caring for another person (or a cat) is what fuels one’s soul and
makes a life worthwhile.

As far as I know, shipstation has nothing to do with bricklink. You will have
to add the number manually. You probably have the default page set with some
old number.
