Comments from Submitter:
The main head type of the M-Tron figures was the Solid Stud Head in 1990. I've never found a set with Blocked Open Stud Head figure, thereby I think the current inventory item list is misleading for collectors. Please change it to Solid Stud Head if possible.

On the Catalog Roadmap located at
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2476
this is part of project #5 listed in the Projects Under Consideration section.
For now, this request will not be accepted, but it will be handled when that
project is undertaken.

Some later reply but thank you for the information. I hope that the catalog roadmap
project #5 will be considered and rolled out sometime.

| Hi all,
yesterday i recovered my roborider wheel collection from early this century and
decided to sell it.
In the meantime i know about the metallic gold ones (from e. g. promo pack 800010,
see also my store).
What i am still interested in are 2 chrome silver chainsaw wheels (part 32362).
Does anyone know, if these were official parts or just a misprint?
They do not look like some just painted a normal one.
Best regards,
Manfred

Were the blue 32064c good blue or brittle blue?
|
Good question. From what I can see through the bag (I have not opened them yet)
the 32064c could indeed be brittle blue. I believe that would be the first brittle
blue part in my collection. Exciting.

There's only one true way to find out! Click it on something and watch it
shatter!

I got some brittle blue ones and have waited to take a new pic until I got real
blue, but I have been curious whether real blue would even exist.

I have no stake in this as I stopped selling parts and sets long ago, but I don't
see the harm this would cause if it's executed properly (meaning invisibly).
It's no different of a feature than minimum buy, bulk lot price limits, or
restricting countries that can purchase from you, and if it's opt in, than
the sellers that don't want to participate will have less competition from
other sellers. Buyers will be oblivious to it, so they won't know.
It's no different than how Bricklink stores operate now. Bricklink is a marketplace
with thousands of stores with their unique inventories and rules (minimum buys,
lot limits, speed/efficiency of operation, etc). Just another tool. The question
really becomes, is there enough interest from sellers for this feature for Briclink
to be bothered with implementing and what other coding/database issues this would
cause (Price Guide listing and sales data).

We instituted a measure to protect from fraud (based on being defrauded in the
past) where we require buyers to have a minimum of 5-10 positive feedbacks in
order to purchase certain high priced sets.
Currently, we can only put that in the item's description and buyers ignore
it and place the orders anyway which creates a sticky situation.
So the suggestion is:
Add a feature to individual listings that will prevent buyers with feedback rating
under X to purchase a certain item.
I can see merit to limiting X to 10 so sellers don't demand a buyer has 10,000
to be able to purchase items.
We allow 0 and low FB rated buyers to buy 99.99% of listings in our shop but
have been burnt a couple of times by 0 FB buyers who bought sealed sets in mint
condition and claimed they were opened and used and returned us boxes with non-LEGO
items in one instance and ransacked set on another purchase- PayPal obviously
sided with the buyers both times.
I'm hoping this will be a measure that would prevent this type of fraud and
will be optional to allow sellers the chance to opt out.

I thought about that, but if it's up to the store to set the feedback threshold,
they won't know how many feedbacks they would need. Also if the inventory
does not even show up in listings until said threshold is met, they won't
know to target that particular store with the "hidden" threshold.
I understand the frustration of the seller that gets scammed and PayPal is not
siding on the seller's side. Since Bricklink does not want to get involved
with the monetary transaction or protecting the seller in any way, this is not
a bad idea of a feature as long as it's executed in a way where the buyer
is not made aware of it. If the buyer does not see a listing for that store,
than they can't even get upset. There will always be those stores that will
want to take the risk and sell to 0 feedback or whatever feedback buyer, so there
will always be inventory for them. Ultimately supply/demand comes into play.
I see this as no harm no foul sort of a strategy given the situation with PayPal
siding heavily in buyer's favor.

| | | I never really liked that feature to disallow some buyers based on feedback,
and I don't understand why it exists. It's not solving a problem, it's
simply moving the problem of fraudulous buyers to other sellers that don't
use the setting. Also, from Bricklink's perspective, a website that has a
better shopping experience for experienced members than for those who just signed
up isn't very good website design in my opinion.
|
You can only block a buyer with negative overall feedback though, so someone
that has placed at least one order and not paid for at least as many as they
have paid for (and got feedback). If they have two negatives and two positives,
they cannot be blocked from buying using the setting.

I understand your concern and I think the best way to handle this would be to
allow individual stores to choose this as an option as opposed to a site wide
mandate. This way you can choose to set your restrictions to your heart's
content and for your peace of mind and allowing others to take the risk if they
choose to do so. The best way to implement this would be so that your listings
won't even show up to those buyers to begin with should their feedback threshold
not meet your criteria settings. Additionally it would be useful if you could
choose various options for your threshold, not just feedback, but also which
types of sets (perhaps select them invidividualy or broadly based on price point,
popularity, risk, etc).
Miro
|
I completely agree and that is why i specifically said that the seller will have
to opt in on their own discretion.
|
Perhaps I missed that bit of information.
Important part of this feature would need to be where the buyer is not aware
of the inventory in your store that they are not permitted to purchase, otherwise
this will be off-putting to the buyer and could possibly cause buyers to turn
away from this marketplace and/or your store.

I really respect the opinions of the people who replied and decided to withdraw
this suggestion as it may not have been presented from a positive spirit and
more from an anger and frustration about being defrauded.
My apologies.
