If you’re interested in one of these 3-card packs from
Just let me know.
As a gift, I’ll handle the postage anywhere worldwide.
(I’ll be gifting a limited amount, don’t know how many yet. But I will try
and get them in the mail before we leave on Thursday)
Happy Father’s Day, Dads! You're loved and appreciated

Gifting one more. I'll then try and get them all in the mail by the end of
today. Hopefully some will make it by Father's Day on Sunday

Very nice. Thanks proud father!

Thank you! It’s actually my son’s old collection that is being sold in our store!
He does most of the listing and I am just there for moral support 😂

Very nice. He's doing a good job, let him know for me. Your gift has been

| | Hello, helpful people!
I have a quick question on how Bricklink charges fees. If a credit is applied
to an order after it has been placed (but before it is paid), will the seller
still be charged BL's fee on that amount, or on the final total?
Thanks!
|
It's a good question, the terms covering this can seem ambiguous.
As I understand it, seller fees are applied to what is itemized as “Order Total”
within the transaction's details. Straightforward so far, right
When an order is credited via the use of a coupon during checkout, it remains
the fee’d amount. But if an order is credited retroactively by the seller, then
the “Order Total” though still the fee’d amount, is now on the wrong side of
itemization and therefore fee-considerations.

Wonder if it's just us English users, who over-utilize those weighty four
letter words. The commone consumer usage "Like it, but don't love it. (Won't
buy it.)" And if that's his opinion, Stuart can reasonably say he loves his
Lego.
Trade you a pet peeve for a pet theory? I think, through characterizing love
as three unique emotions, that you can figure out your true feelings - based
entirely upon how sleepy the subject tends to make you feel!
The Three Love-As
Attraction: Adrenaline and androgens (Decreased serotonin, less sleepy)
Attachment: Oxytocin and vasopressin
Affection: Dopamine and norepinephrine (Increased serotonin, more sleepy)

Always fantastic input, Caleb!
Interesting too. But your premise misses the point. Thanks nonetheless
