| I'm new to the process of motorizing anything and don't have any of these
types of parts so I'm looking for some incite. With the new Loop Coaster
, there is the opportunity to motorize the lift mechanism so that
it can run continuously. Per the set recommendations, they suggest to use
and . Would it also be possible to use the older parts
and ? I don't know if these are powerful enough or not.

From your end, how would you always know that the vendor “takes 2-3 days before
they turn it over to shipper”?
Just one of what I'm certain are several possible scenarios:
I take a deal of pride (those that know me would say to obsession ) in quick
order processing, which includes getting the package into USPS possession. I
do this by packaging every order and having it ready to go before invoicing.
Upon receiving payment, the label is immediately created and applied. It's
here the obsession kicks in, as I then feel the urge to drive it the one km to
our PO without delay, thus finishing my part of the deal I made.
Here's where the question I posed to you plays out: I only ever use the package
drop box in the lobby when open, or exterior when closed. Arriving home, I immediately
change the status to "shipped" followed by a Drive Thru message being sent with
tracking link. We all know how tracking lags, and the link may not show 'shipper
possession' for sometime, on weekends and holidays it can be days.
Does the buyer then feel like you, that I was premature, perhaps even dishonest,
in changing the status to shipped? It’s actually an honest question that I’ve
always wondered: How do my buyers really feel about it?

As a seller, I follow a similar process although I don't have the instant
urge to drive to the post office to drop them off. When I have an order come
in, I feel like I have to pull it right away. I don't get a lot of orders
either, so it tends to give me a few minute break from my full time job so maybe
that's the real motivation. Either way, I almost always ship the next day
via my mail box to my mail carrier. They scan packages on pickup and I know
they are in the system within the next hour or two. However, I still mark them
as shipped as soon as I see the mail go. I then flip the order to shipped, post
my feedback and send a drive through as well.
As a buyer, when I see a "shipped" for me it just means that it's left the
sellers hands. That could mean a drop box, at the desk or mail carrier like
I do. I don't think that it is dishonest or premature in any way, but this
also could be the way of the US postal system as well.

| | I really thought when buyers use PayPal Onsite, the Bricklink address was copied
to PayPal. But now I have my first difference.
Was I wrong all this time, was it changed or is this a technical error?
Luckily I checked this one, for I really want to ship to the PayPal address only.

As far as I know, they are not the same. Paypal has it's on address information
that you fill in when you create an account there, similar to BL. You'll
need to "confirm" that they BL address is the Paypal address in order to get
the assurance.

sales exceeds 10k.
I.ve made an export of this period (01.07.2021 -01.07.2022) and i've noticed
that they took into total shipping cost, fees, taxes, local shippings, non Eu
shippings. and all canceled orders, they are all summed and for this cause i've
exceed the 10k.
For ex, the real selling to Eu customers is ~ 2000+ euro.
I've opened a support ticket but this is strange, they have 1 year to implement
it correctly.

How does this work? You are a brand new user as of today, already have a feedback,
a store and 10k in sales? Looks like some accounts need to be merged.

There will most likely be some that pop up on here once they start to distribute.
I'm sure some people just bought every set to sell off the ones they don't
want, but you can't offer them for sale yet as they don't exist. Just
wait around and they'll get added to the catalog and market price will be
established.

| | Try adding a size limit in the shipping settings

You will have to make this adjustment on each shipping method that you offer,
that you want/need to adjust. If you go to your store settings - Shipping -
select a shipping method to update, then go all the way to the bottom to "Restrictions
and Adjustments". Under the "Package adjustment" select the drop down and then
add a "padding adjustment". Basically you are adding a buffer to be use when
an order is placed. Hope that helps.

| | As a new seller what is the general procedure when a buyer chooses the shipping

Do I cover the cost or ask for the additional 6 dollars?

You cover the cost and fix your settings so that it doesn't happen again.

There is a learning curve to getting started and adjusting the rates for shipping
especially if you are using instant checkout. One option is to only use the
invoicing method. Then you can pull the order, get everything packed and weighted
and send an invoice with a proper shipping method. Down side to this is that
you do all the work upfront and if the shipping is to high for the buyer, they
have the right to cancel and you have to break everything back down and put it
away again.

Wait I am confused. Does this mean what I paid will be returned and then I will
be recharged? If so and I need to update the credit card info how will this work?
|
You didn’t actually paid anything yet. It was only an authorization check.
When the set will be sent (and only then), you’ll be actually charged.
|
Ah now this brings up an interesting point. If I need to update my card later
on to have it go on a different card will I be allowed to do this?
|
Yes 100%. I had to do this for the first round. All you need to do is call
Lego support number and provide the order details. They'll make the update
on their end and it'll go through without issue when it ships.

You have this listed as Used/Completed, but missing minifigures. This is not
correct and should be "incompleted"
