  Over past few weeks the number of instant checkouts has gone to zero and everything
has become Manual Checkout/Invoice Request.

Upon investigation, it appears most of my inventory has lost it's weight
data. The boxes below condition where you can edit weight, box length etc, that
is all gone across all of my inventory. I've deleted a few items and relisted,
same issue.

I've used the mass upload and put in the weight of my items, used another
account to "checkout" and I get "TBD" or grossly inflated weights
(polybags weighing 9 ounces!!).

I'm lost at this point and unsure what to do next.

Any help most appreciated.

Did you perhaps uncheck the 'Enable my weight and my packing dimensions...'
on your settings here:

  Most of you know that I am on the BrickLink Marketplace Panel group of which
Admin Tanja. We will be meeting next Wed, Feb 1, and I need some seller feedback
to share with the group.

During the last meeting we were told that the plan for seller tools was scraped
because what was being developed did not fit in with the plan for the new site.
(Yes there is a plan to write a new site). Yes, I am MORE than disappointed that
we, once again, are not getting anything new to help us.

So I am wanting your seller input that can get us a few things now, to work with
this site, to hold us over until the new site is done. My recollection is the
next two years.

I have a few pet peeves that I will be sharing, but I want to hear your annoyances.
I know they are many, hit me. I'll do what I can.

Post here or PM me, either way is fine.

Thanks

Thanks for reaching out. While I understand why a new site is necessary, just
the thought of how much we may lose in the process makes me depressed.

Anyway, here are my suggestions:

Fix wording on Onsite payment required 'Seller does not support shipping...'
so people can actually figure out what is going wrong.

Move Request a Quote to the beginning of the transaction, and clean up the misleading
wording on every step of the checkout process.

Clean out the 'Shared Shipping Methods' and stop giving new sellers the
impression that they can just pick one of those outdated methods and have their
shop magically charge the right price for postage.

Fix the permanent 'Completed' Order Status if a seller mistakenly sets
it.

Fix the phantom order/payment issue that's been reported. (I just had one
this week: payment but no order.)

Find a way for us to submit sales tax payments when a buyer can't or won't
use the Onsite payments.

Requested Quotes should trigger the same yellow number notification icon that
messages do so we don't miss them.

Only make site changes during BrickLink office work hours to reduce overnight
and weekend downtime that adversely affects European sellers.

Respond more to issues in the Forum or create a place where members can track
known issues.

Yep! There's more but you only have so much time I would guess.

Thanks,
Jen

Is this acceptable? Can I ask sellers to do that?
She is not an AFOL.
Thank you.

Do not change your address!
If you do change your address, your store will get closed and you have to go
through the process of becoming seller again. That may take few weeks.

You can open another account, just for purpose of buying. Then you can change
that address.

I am fairly sure this is against TOS.


  
I don't recommend buying from Germany this way. Shipping charges from Germany
are, for most German stores, very affordable. Some only charges 9 Euro to ship
worldwide, while they charge maybe 4 euro to ship within Germany. On top of that,
they charge VAT for orders that remain in Germany.
I would just directly order from Germany to your address in the USA.

  this dark tan one is now one I'm not sure if its good

My advice on patterned parts is to show them at less of an angle than this. It's
good to show a bit of the side so we can see what part this is, but the pattern
side should take up the majority of the image. This makes it much easier to identify
when scanning through the thumbnail images.

  Please could anyone help me regarding extortionate shipping when someone purchases
one of my instruction manuals.

I have had a few orders now where bricklink only gives the option for a medium
parcel when it's clearly only a manual so therefore will fit in a large envelope.
It's defaulting to £5 for shipping when it should be more like £1-£2.

Is it something I have set up wrong on my store settings ? Or is this a well
known issue.

Many thanks.

Take a look at the dimensions of the manuals.
Most have the dimensions of the original set box and those are way larger then
the instructions

Yes, it's unfortunate that they were all originally entered with the wrong
measurements. In hindsight, it would have been better to leave the missing measurements
blank so sellers would have more incentive to submit the correct data.

Sellers, if you see instruction packing dimensions with a height of 1 cm, it's
a clue that these were the default data. Please submit the corrections by using
the Add or Change tab, Change Item: Set which is where the instructions
dimensions are hiding.

  Suggestion: Part 37494 Train Pantograph Shoe has no hinge component and is widely
used for other purposes outside of a train, and without a hinge around. It is
just bar connections all around. This part should be listed either under Bar
or otherwise under Train in the catalog (since its original purpose may have
been for electric trains).

Meanwhile, the old part 2881/2922 did have a hinge component and can be left
alone under hinge. If part 37494 moves to train in the inventory, however, I'd
argue 2881/2922 should join it there despite having a hinge component.

Yes, you can cancel the order if you think the shipping is too high:
https://www.bricklink.com/retractOrder.asp

You can request to cancel if the shipping was higher than described in the seller's
terms. Just placing orders to see what the final cost will be is a not a good
method.

T&C) '

Manual invoicing was the standard here until fairly recently. It is very normal
on this site for a seller to have to check your order and then add the appropriate
shipping charges.

You are still obligated to make your purchase as you agreed to at checkout unless
the seller did not explain the charges in their terms.

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=79

So, check the terms, do your homework as to what shipping costs generally run,
use the Request a Quote feature if you still aren't sure.

You can still make a polite request to the seller to cancel after an order is
placed. Some sellers will and some won't. Many sellers here are wary of cancelling
an order because then a buyer may leave them unwarranted negative feedback. It's
a bit of a problem we've had here for too long.

That usually only happens if the buyer didn’t pay onsite. If the buyer hasn’t
paid onsite then you have to manually change the status to paid but onsite payment
is required if bricklink has to collect tax so if there is tax on the order and
it wasn’t paid onsite it might be best to cancel the order. The simplest workaround
tho (there are several) is simply mark it as packed then mark it as shipped

I believe we recently closed that loophole. Orders that aren't taxed properly
are a real problem for us.

Since we, as sellers, can't control buyer behavior, and refunding payments
like this costs us money and hassle and possibly a lost sale, there should be
a way we can manually submit the tax payment to BrickLink.

I know, very complicated... but an obvious solution.

I compared your images here to a pretty old one that I have from
 
Set No: 8926  Name: Toa Undersea Attack
* 
8926-1 (Inv) Toa Undersea Attack
348 Parts, 6 Minifigures, 2007
Sets: BIONICLE: Playsets

It is a trans-red version of the part with design number 46413 and mold numbers
2-01. So the one I am looking at was made from the original molds for this part
created in 2002-3. Since the same mold was used for ABS and polycarbonate versions
of the part, I can be sure that this is the original design.

Looking closely, I can't see any real differences between the old one that
I have and your images. The one I have only has seven teeth on the hinge fingers,
also. This goes along with what I have found from some other parts: that the
seven-tooth design of the hinge fingers goes back a long time to shortly after
the introduction of the click hinge system. Funny that we only learned about
the difference a few years ago.

Cheers,
Randy

Interesting! The old part I found to compare is Trans-Black, has design number
46413, mold number 1-01, and a 2002 LEGO Group copyright. It was from a used
lot, so I don't know the set.

Check your seller's Terms page. What information did they offer about the
price of shipping? If they clearly represented costs there (you agreed to the
purchase at checkout) then the seller is not obligated to cancel your order.

You can still make a polite request to the seller to cancel. Some sellers will
and some won't. Many sellers here are wary of cancelling an order because

  So, I was unsure about shipping selection on my page. An order came in for a
set. Apparently they selected 1st class shipping for it. To assure the selection,
I reached out to the buyer with no response. I waited a couple days and reached
out again, advising that if no response I would be issuing a refund. A couple
more days went by so and issued a refund. I waited for the refund to complete
and then I clicked on completed. Now I have a reminder of feedback. should I
have just cancelled the order (unsure that there was a selection for that) or
do I leave a neutral feedback as no contact after several attempts?

If an order came through Instant Checkout and was paid, you should have packed
and set the order.

Not all buyers see or respond to messages from BrickLink. If you really need
to contact them, send an email directly.

A refund does not cancel the order. You have to go through that process separately.

A buyer placed and paid for an order in your shop. There is no reason at all
to leave a neutral as it appears any mistakes made here may have been yours.

How do I change this?

You can't change it back. It's a glitch/bug/feature.

  For a consumer, what % of income is appropriate to spend on LEGO before it is
considered a..."problem"? Or is it calculated based on square feet overtaken
by LEGO in the home? Asking for a friend.

First, we cleared off a bookcase so we could display our LEGO collection. Then,
the china cabinet. The movie drawer, the toy box, and the game shelf went next.
Having taken over every surface in that first room, it spread, inching its way
around the TV shelf, the mantle, and the side tables. Finally, the office succumbed
as its storage areas were just too easy a mark. We drew the battle line at the
kitchen door and won!

So, yeah, 3 rooms are full and we definitely have a 'problem.' (We don't
talk about the basement.)

  Hi all

If I sell a minifig is it expected that I will include accessories? I note that
generally there is no comment related to accessories, but if there is no comment
does that mean accessories are not expected?

Looking to understand prior to making a mistake.

Cheers
Tosh

Your minifig should match the minifig inventory.

  I find that many stores cannot ship to my state. I am able to look in their stores,
see that they can ship to my country and I check their terms and nowhere does
it say my state is not allowed. When I go to checkout I get a banner that says
"seller does not support orders shipping to Iowa." This happens with
most stores in and out of America that I visit. I message the sellers but usually
don't get an answer back. Perhaps it's a stupid question to ask if they
ship to my state or I seem entitled assuming its an error on their end. The fact
that it happens on most stores I try to buy from makes me wonder if it's
a problem on my end. Other then moving to a new state, is there something I can
do to fix it?

It simply means that the stores do not have an Onsite payment method that allows
BrickLink to collect the necessary sales taxes. Sales taxes were implemented
a long time ago, and if these stores aren't messaging back, it's likely
that they just aren't active stores. You can tell them about the Onsite issue,
or more effectively, shop at stores with more and active feedback.

Hello,

Please add an Alternate number or let me know if a new catalog entry is needed.

 
Part No: 30389b  Name: Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Locking with 1 Finger Vertical and Axle Hole
* 
30389b Hinge Brick 2 x 2 Locking with 1 Finger Vertical and Axle Hole
Parts: Hinge

I found a new mold number 49714 in

* 
76210-1 (Inv) Hulkbuster
4045 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2022
Sets: Super Heroes: Sculptures: The Infinity Saga

Printed instructions read 6413328.

https://brickset.com/parts/design-30389

There are only subtle differences. Here it is compared with 30389b from set 9446.

Thanks!

  I'm thinking about adding in a few international countries to ship to. If
and when I receive an international order, does the iOSS number for BL show up
in the order or where would I find it ?

Also for those countries where the customs form is the shipping label, is that
sufficient or do I have to add additional customs forms attached to the package?

Not sure if this is has been asked before - I couldn't find it in the forums.

thanks
Alison

There will be additional information on the Order Detail page and BL will also
send you an email when the order is paid. The VAT receipt needs to be printed
out and attached on the outside of the package in a pouch of some kind. The IOSS
must be included digitally for some countries. (the EU mostly) I use Pirate Ship
for those labels as Shipstation through Paypal doesn't have that option.

If the customs form that you sign is the label, that's all you need as far
as I know.

order and start fresh with the 2 items that are in stock?

Thanks!

I assume the order is not yet paid for?

In that case, you can submit an Item Removal request:

https://www.bricklink.com/retractOrderItem.asp

However, it's a fairly confusing procedure as the buyer will have to see
it and approve it. Be sure to explain the process and provide them with the link.

You should also offer them to chance to cancel their entire order without penalty
as that one item may have been the one they were after.

Good luck,
Jen

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=30180pb06&name=Slope%2045%2010%20x%202%20x%202%20Double%20with%20Octan%20Logo%20Pattern%20(Sticker)%20-%20Set%206582&category=%5BSlope,%20Decorated%5D#T=C&C=1

So, let me see if I have this correct: You're saying that the stickered parts
that were originally added in the set are being removed, and replaced with the
sticker over assembly part? and that the 2 20180 parts in the set are not going
to be removed or replaced?

If someone came across this set with the stickers unapplied they'd need to
be able to identify the parts in the set that came with it. Stickers don't
apply themselves, I think this is where the original poster is getting confused.

Cheers ...

Correcting the stickered counterparts will have no effect on the parts in the
Regular inventory.

There are many ways to resize an image.

I just tried Pixlr as it was at the top of the search results for free photo
editor. Used 'Page' 'Resize page (scale)' and it worked just
fine.

Another trick is to use our Forum. Any images posted here will resize down to
a max width of 640 pixels. Create a post, browse for an image, then click on
and save the preview that pops up. You don't even have to actually post it
for all of us to see.

For example, this image was a 1959x1296 JPG when I uploaded it.

Good luck,
Jen

The antenna that is shown on the box and in the manual is not flat, but round. Please change it.

The part renders used in instruction books and the photos used for box art and
promotional images are not very reliable sources.

Here's one they never updated consistently:

https://brickset.com/parts/design-3747

as I am pretty sure there are no 3747a in Magenta or Bright Light Yellow.

If you find the evidence in a sealed set or even online set reviews or unboxing

Comments from Submitter:
The green 44728 brackets, 3001 2x4 and 2456 2x6 bricks of the tree are actually bright green, matching the 3031 and 87580; Likewise, the 4 'dark green' 2x4 bricks are actually just 'green'

Bizarre-- Reviewing the manual and instructions, it 'appears' the
tree is bright green matching everything else. But reviewing the item codes in
the inventory 4106356 4181135, and some youtube review videos, they seem to be
regular green. Retracting my change request.

The part renders used in instruction books and the photos used for box art and
promotional images are not very reliable sources.

BrickLink can be pretty confusing for new buyers or non-English speakers. Many
don't realize that they haven't checked out and paid once they
press the Place Order button.

BrickLink messages sometimes end up in junk or spam folders.

NPB's are just a normal part of the manual invoice system. People can't
figure out the system, don't care to figure out the system, or develop buyer's
remorse and are not finding a good way out of a transaction. The nice price they
thought they were getting at checkout now looks not-so-nice with shipping and
taxes applied.

Be patient, explain when you can, cancel if you aren't worried about negative
feedback, file an NPB if you are. Oh, and set up Instant Checkout for your First
Class mail at least. It'll save you the majority of these hassles.

Good luck,
Jen


In Problem Order, MecaOne writes:
  Hello, I'm a fairly new seller and I've never posted to the forum before.
I've had to cancel two orders before for buyers not paying after several
weeks. Recently I had a buyer who made an order and then afterwards sent a message
asking for a shipping quote (they did not use the request a quote feature). I
was happy to return a message with the shipping price which was only a few dollars
so I figured it wouldn't be an issue and once they gave the okay I'd
send the invoice.

The buyer read the message almost immediately, but no response for several days,
until today when they sent a request to cancel the order with the reason of "mutual
agreement". I sent a follow-up message asking for clarification which was
again almost immediately read but no reply.

I will probably end up agreeing to the cancellation, it isn't a big deal
as it was a relatively small order to begin with, but it's definitely a frustrating
and somewhat confusing situation and I was wondering if any more experienced
sellers had any advice or similar scenarios they'd encountered.

Thanks!

I agree with you that your seller is way out of line.

I would just mention that, human nature being what it is, you should always expect
a defensive or negative reply when you tell anyone: 'You should...!"

Good luck,
Jen

  Hi,

I placed an order yesterday on a French store.
The seller wrote to me to tell me that he is in Portugal until the end of March
and that he will therefore not be able to take care of the order before. He therefore
proposes to me either to cancel it, or to keep it despite the wait.
I tell him that I would have preferred to know before placing my order but that
nevertheless I will keep it since I need a few pieces. I also advised him to
indicate it on his shop.

Here is my message:
"Hello,
Indeed, I would have preferred to know before ordering. You should put it big
on your homepage!
I will keep my order since I need some parts.
Nicholas"

I don't think I was rude, I advised him to make an announcement about his
absence to avoid possible problems with buyers.

Here is his response:
"Good evening, the fact of having ordered does not oblige me to be at your
disposal...
Also, the exclamation mark on your answer, I don't like either.
Sorry, I'm away because my father is sick, I have to be there for him.
Frankly, no one who has purchased from my store has ever sent me a response like
yours."

I find his answer quite rude.
On the one hand, concerning his family, I cannot know. I do not blame him.
On the other hand, I advised him to at least indicate his absence on his shop
and he took the exclamation point at the end of my sentence very badly...
Then, as a seller, even if indeed he is not at my disposal, if he cannot manage
his shop during his absence, therefore if he is not currently able to satisfy
the needs of his "customers", he shouldn't keep it open.

I don't really know what to do...

Nicolas

Just another FYI, the feedback you are leaving is out of the norm. It's fine
to compliment a buyer for a fast payment, but detailing the exact time is well...
a bit creepy.

Slope with sticker 9 from Set 70922

Hello. I haven't tried to add any parts to the catalog yet and am trying
to part out a used 70922. So I go to those/that link(s) and follow the instructions
to add all the stickered pieces?

Yes, it's a bit complicated the first time through. There are a few more
hints here:

I am also happy to help and answer any questions you might have about the process.

Are the centers interchangeable with the housings? It doesn't look like it
from the image, but I need to make sure.

Cheers,

77258 will not fit into 18588. 18587 would fit into 77257 but I don't want
to try it because these pins never come loose.

Please submit new entries for both of the parts.

Cheers,
Randy

Thanks!

Many images uploaded. Please help with the item name.

If the seller can deliver the sold quantity at the agreed price, no matter when
or where the seller stocks up, I can't really see any problem.

That's nice, but the terms for selling on BrickLink require you to have any
listed stock on hand.

  Is there a way to run a report on the transaction history of a part? (what orders
and when it was sold)

No, but you can see that you sold a part in a particular color within the last
6 months in the Price Guide. It's indicated by the gold squares. The gold
square is a link to the order. (Refresh your screen if the squares and flags
don't appear at first.)

  Hi

I just had a new buyer say that the 3651 parts I sent are not original lego,
I believe its becausethey don't have the 'lego' logo on the side
studs. I checked the rest of my stock which have come from several sets I bought
and they are exactly the same and match the stock calatog images on BrickLink
(i.e. the side studs are smooth).

Can anyone please let me know if this item is normally smooth or if perhaps there
are 2 versions (some with the Lego logo on the side studs).

Thanks

Regards

Steve

 
Part No: 3651  Name: Technic, Axle and Pin Connector

Perhaps point out to them the ridiculously good large image we have of this part
which clearly shows no logo on the sides.
