You are the best!!!!!! this should have solved any problems I have. I might even
just close the store up, not sure if anyone is looking at inv that way, most
people are contacting me from a different website where I just uploaded a bsx
file.

Thanks again!
Joe

Thanks,

I would use the Banner field, too: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/display.page

It's far more visible on all product pages of your store, and difficult to
miss or ignore. The Announcement field text, on the other hand, is small
on the page periphery and can be dismissed or collapsed.

I see that you're using the Banner field now, good. However, you can
increase the text size by using the macro tags shown in the screenshot below.
H1 being the largest moving down in size by increasing the number value, i.e.
H2 ~ H3

I did this on purpose because I started getting orders even though I have a 50k
minimum buy, once I agree with someone on price I will change payment methods.

Just FYI you don't have an Onsite payment option enabled for USA buyers,
which limits who can transact with you here on BrickLink.

  Trying to sell my entire store as I do not have the time for it anymore and it
has been closed for almost 2 years.

Is there an easy way to make my entire store a superlot?

Also I have a bunch of sets that are not in inventory that I was going to sell
separately. I got stuck on the upload image part of creating a "bulk lot" item

Store has a "current inventory average" value of 153k and sets have a "current
inventory average" of 60k, looking to get 75k for both or 30k for sets and 50k
for store OBO.

Any tips would be helpful

I’d start by setting the selloff price as the minimum buy and reopening the store:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/management.page

Using any or all of these fields, Slogan ~ Announcement ~ Banner to convey
your intention with the high minimum: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/mystore/display.page

Opening your store places your inventory back onto the market, giving you more
exposure, allowing 24/7 perusal of your inventory and greatly increasing your
ability to cultivate prospective buyers.

In the meantime, you’ll no doubt generate offers to consider with your inventory
exposed with selloff caveats. Don’t drop your pricing, until you have structured
a deal.
At which point, close your store and set it up, transacting with
a close store and password.

Just one of several ways of doing it, Joe.

If he doesnt refund paypal claim him for incomplete order, he was doing a liquidation
so his counts were probably just way off.

I knew who you were talking about because he sent me the same message "all orders
will be done by end of week" then I had to paypal claim him the next wednesday
because he didn't pack or ship.

He also posted on the forums advertising his sale while both of our orders sat,
one guy actually called him out for all his negatives, I paypal claimed him as
soon as I saw the post. The nerve of people to try to generate new sales when
they are not filling there current orders.

  Sometimes one negative feedback is just not enough, especially when you've
been thoroughly abused and belittled by a seller.

I made a big (for me) purchase from a seller - 1288 pcs in 61 lots.

The seller didn't do anything about, act on it, nothing, until a whole week
when I asked him about it. He said he will pack it in a few days and will ship
it the following week. That's two weeks after I paid for it.

The week after, I followed up on it again.

He said he's working on "all orders as we speak" and again promised shipping
it by the end of that week.

I waited again (this was over two weeks from payment), and still no movement.

In the meantime, he kept getting positive reviews multiple times a day from other
buyers.

This means he's been processing and shipping everyone else's orders,
but deliberately ignoring mine.

Day after day.

For over two weeks.

On week 3, I messaged him again.

This time he said he was packing it that day.

At the end of the day, I followed up again, he said he will mail it the day after.

Over three weeks after payment before he shipped my order, and only after I followed
up with him 4 times.

Just to add icing to the cake, the shipment was missing 83 pieces across 8 lots.

After all this, the most I can give him is one lousy negative review, severely
limited by the number of characters, to be drowned out by all the other customers
he dutifully served while persistently and consistently ignoring mine.

It's just nowhere near proportional to the treatment I got.


I think I know who you are talking about, check to see if his store is suspended
if it makes you feel any better

Instead of clicking on inventory go to the set you are looking for in the catalog,

Where it says add to my wanted list you can add "part out" with the link below.
