|
| Hallo liebe Marktteilnehmer. 
schreibt ihr für alle empfangenen Bestellungen eine Rechnung mit fortlaufender
RE-Nummer?
Aktuell mache ich das und es kostet mich pro Order ca. 5min. Wie machen dass
den die "großen" Händler mit mehreren tausend Bestellungen pro Jahr?
Schreiben die für jede einzelne Bestellung eine RE?
Ein Traum wäre es wenn das Finanzamt eine Bricklink-Übersicht aller Bestellungen
akzeptieren würde. Ziemlich unrealistisch oder?
Bin für steuerrechtlich sauber Tipps sehr dankbar.
Viele Grüße an alle deutschen Steuerzahler.

|
| Hi folks,
for some reason I cannot edit existing shipping methods. In detail: I want unselect
some countries in existing shipping methods. When I open an existing zone, the
system ignore changes in the selected country list after "saved changes".
Any idea?

I prepackage all my minifigures, and personal packaged this particular order.
I gave the buyer a refund even though I know I did not make a mistake to avoid
any headaches.
How do you guys deal with this? It’s starting to be a common thing when it comes
to minifigures I see.

I take a photo of every order so if the question comes up i have my proof.

Same. I take a pic of all items in an order before i finalize packaging.

On both my Linux (2023.5.1) and Windows (2022.4.2) machines, the database says
it was generated 8 days ago, regardless of when it was generated.
Also, I can not seem to get the COLMAR2 series to show up.
Are you experiencing this issue? If others are, I can enter a bug report in Github.
If not, I'm probably going to turn off the computer and go enjoy some sunshine.

Same here with MacOS.
Also not the first time this happened with brickstore. Earlier this year was
a similar issue with non updating database.
I hope it will get fixed soon to part out new sets who are not in the database
yet.

As true as that reel is, this has been a particularly strange summer/early fall
for a lot of sellers. The sales numbers are definitely down across the board
and for me personally have absolutely tanked this month. I normally have 8/day.
I've had 4 since Sept 1. I'm a moderate sized store with over 1.5 million
parts. I would love to hear from Admin about what is happening site wide, but
I doubt we will.
|
Just my two cents....
It feels like that overall demand of new parts dropped rapidly. Also the average
prices dropping continuously for new parts.
Maybe its just about to much Lego on the market. Or its about Lego's growing
"pick a brick" business. Whats the reason behind Lego bought BL some
years ago? They wanna make money, thats all. First years there were studying
the market, now all top100 selling parts and hundreds more you can get via "pick
a brick". Most of them even cheaper then on BL.

|
| Hi all,
I don't found a answer to my question.
I set to ALL of my parts and minifigs a general tiered pricing model. I don't
really understand how it works for customers now. Is this setting related only
per Lot or to the whole amount of parts in the shopping cart?
For example. I set a 10% discount for orders of 200 or more.
A buyer comes to the cart with 20 different lots, 12 pieces average. Will he
get shown at the check out a 10% off price on all 240 part? (This i actually
would like to go for)
Kind regards for your support !

| Hi folks,
I just checked out the reopened pick a brick shop on LEGO's official website.
They reopened after winter break and increased the amount of variety a lot.
Still not every kind of part available, but quiet a lot.
Looks like LEGO become a serious competitor in selling individual bricks.
I compared some prices. Some are way cheaper, some more expensive than BL average.
Gonna be interesting future for BL sellers I guess.
What do you think about? Do Lego offer this service also for US market?

E.g. Set 60353 - it comes with 3 complete minifigs. Bricklink database just count

See the note at the bottom of the inventory page:

"The digital instructions for this set only show one complete minifigure
being constructed. The other minifigure parts are included with the set for creative

| | Hallo Mathias,
viele der deutschen Lizenzgeber von Verkaufsverpackung (z.B. Reclay Systems GmbH)
sind mittlerweile mit europäischen Partner-Rücknahmesystemen (z.B. Léko in Frankreich)
vernetzt und bieten die Lizenzierung in die jeweiligen EU-Länder an.
Eine Verpackungslizenz erhältst Du somit recht unkompliziert über die deutschen
Anbieter von Verpackungslizenzen. Jedoch kann das recht teuer werden, sodass
es sich für kleine Bricklink-Händler nicht rechnet die benötigen Lizenzen zu
erwerben.
Verpackungslizenzen ins europäische Ausland werden jedoch nicht erst zum 01.01.2023
Pflicht. Sie werden schon eine ganze Weile benötigt. Zum 1. Januar 2023 hat nun
Österreich und auch Frankreich die Regelungen verschärft, sodass Betreiber von
elektronischen Marktplätzen aktuell die Registrierung und Systembeteiligung der
bei Ihnen agierenden Online-Händler überprüfen müssen.
Wie Bricklink damit umgehen wird ist mir nicht bekannt.
Hoffe ich konnte ein wenig helfen.
Viele Grüße

| | Hallo Zusammen,
mal eine Frage an die deutschen Händler, die nach Österreich verkaufen: Ab 1.1.2023
gibts hier ja auch die Notwendigkeit der Teilnahme an einer Verpackungsverordnung.
Meine Frau hat für ihren eigenen Shop (hat nix mit Lego zu tun ) auch mal
nachgefragt, allerdings sind die Kosten extrem hoch.
Ich für meinen Teil werde deshalb wohl Österreich aus dem Versand ausschließen
müssen.
Wie sieht es bei euch aus?

Interessantes Thema, höre ich zum ersten mal. Hier mehr Infos dazu.
https://www.onlinehaendler-news.de/e-recht/gesetze/137283-oesterreich-auslaendische-haendler-ab-1-januar-2023-bevollmaechtigten
Keine Ausnahmen für Kleinstmengen steht da, genauso wie etwas von dreistelligen
Kosten. Kurz und knapp: Da wird man die Österreichischen Kunden wohl leider nicht
mehr bedienen können. Es bleibt abzuwarten wie sich die Thematik auf EU-Ebene
entwickelt.
Aber ein klein wenig Kopfschüttel lösen solche Gesetze bei mir schon aus.

I had recently a buyer from US. I sent the parcel on 27th Oct. Arrival 21st of
Nov. via DHL. Seems there were lags in processing time on customs, as well at
the airport in germany. Both took couple of days according to tracking details.
As it was just some parts, maybe got sent without tracking from seller? How much
was shipping cost?

It's normal: you don't wish to implement auto checkout and instant payment.
And now another discussion; we already talked about this 2 years ago and you
were like "No I won't do it". Why posting though?

Because the problem rate has rocketed.
|
OF COURSE, and it's going to be worse: while this was something in 2000,
nobody wants to wait for an invoice for 4$ in 2022.

I do not mind about 0-feedback buyers. Had already a some of them.
Just once the buyer request a cancellation. What I agreed (but don't need
to) and refund him the money.
As I only accept instant checkout, I already get the money before I proceed a
order.
I also do not clearly understand the advantage of invoice checkout procedure.
Its way more complicated and trouble making in my mind.
Just my two cents.

Couple of days ago I was struggling with that as well.
As I understood its not possible to set specific countries for "everywhere else".
It means just everywhere.
I add a new zone and choose all countries as needed manually.
I did this with all my shipping option, to set it manually by the "new zone"
option.
Because of my instant checkout availability its super important to make this
settings correct.
I already pay the gap of shipping costs out of my own pocket through wrong shipping
setting.
