Bug? Or something else I don't know about?

  Hello,

I have had a lego set (Lord of the Rings Tower of Orthanc 10237-1) on sale for
a couple months now, but its just not selling....

I am thinking of cutting the pirce down to around 300 euro (now it is 350 euro),
but Im not sure if it's too low for the value of the set...

The set isn't complete and is missing quite a lot of items (no tree beard,
no minifigs and accessories, no eagle ,no Original box, no instructions, no Palantir,
no "3068bpb0661", no "33009pb045" ).

I am asking for help to find a good price for this set so that it will sell.
or any other tips to make this set more appealing.

Thanks for any tips or support!

https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=10237-1&name=The%20Tower%20of%20Orthanc&category=%5BThe%20Hobbit%20and%20The%20Lord%20of%20the%20Rings%5D%5BThe%20Lord%20of%20the%20Rings%5D#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}

PS. Sorry if this is the wrong forum to post.

(I have deleted the item a couple weeks back and now it is back up on my store,
so dont mind the list date)

It amazes me that you are surprised it doesn't sell.. no box, no instructions,
no minifigs, no etc. how on earth are you calling this still a "set"??

  I'm very disheartened today. I received my first neutral feedback yesterday
and thought I did everything I could to make things right. While pulling the
order I found one small part that was slightly discolored. I notified the customer
and gave them a refund but let them have the part anyway incase they could use
it. I shipped the order and the customer recieved it quickly (even sent me an
email thanking me for shipping so quickly). Later I received an email that one
of the parts I sent (a 1x2 slope) was actually a MB brand. I try to make sure
all my used parts are LEGO but sometimes one may slip through. I replied to
them (through gmail) on Jan 29th and refunded them for the part. I thought everyting
was fine. Yesterday I received a neutral feedback stating I never replied or
did anything. You try your best to keep 100% praise then one customer kills it.

Congratulations on your first neutral, so early in your life as a seller. Blaming
someone else is easy. Just accept the fact you can't control everything.

My advice: reply on the feedback, say thank you and will do better. That will
give future customers a feeling of trust. Simply complaining on the forum will
not.

BR,
Paul

Anyone else same problem?

IF you use a gmail-account, the problem/answer may be explained here :
https://blog.google/products/gmail/gmail-security-authentication-spam-protection/

As of February, rules are far more strict (too strict) for bulk-senders.

No, it is not a spam-issue nor gmail-issue. The My Copy of Order Invoice and
Order Shipped mail are just not send by bricklink. The customer however does
receive their copy of the mail!

  Hoe verzenden jullie tegenwoordig naar Amerika.

Is het nog toegestaan om dit in een envelope te versturen met een geprint adres
label, of moet het echt voorzien zijn met een scanbare barcode?

Voor 5 onderdelen wordt het wel een dure grap voor de koper en regelmatig wordt
er gevraagd om het cancelen van de order.


Alvast bedankt.

Binnen NL verzend ik nog wel in envelop, maar daarbuiten altijd met tracked in
brievenbusdoos of pakket. Het is duur geworden, dus ik vermeld de minimale verzendkosten
vooraf bij de shipping options. Dan is de koper op de hoogte en kan er zelf voor
kiezen om te orderen... of niet. Ik krijg zodoende geen klachten of annuleringen.

Brievenbusdoosjes moeten echt wel aan de maten en gewicht voldoen, want 1 gram
of 1 cm boven de grens en je krijgt meteen een naheffing. De controles zijn genadeloos.

Only just noticed that I don't receive copies of Invoices / Purchases since
January 27th.

Please fix asap.

I guess we are the only ones not getting copies of messages of placed orders
and invoices.

Missing copies January 27 - January 30

Same here, nothing wrong with the mailbox itself receiving other mails perfectly
just BrickLink mails are missing.

Will there be a list of all changes/mergers available?
Or is it already available?

In Catalog, Admin_Russell writes:
  Hello everyone,

As a platform, we have decided to take a hard look at some of the mold variants
that we are currently asking you to recognize. For sellers, more variants means
extra sorting and extra work while pulling orders, plus the issues that arise
from variant misunderstandings.

For buyers, excess variants mean that it's harder to assemble a wanted list,
find stores, and ultimately obtain the parts you are looking for.

I have put together a quick Help page to outline these proposed changes:

https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2625

Notice the date on this is coming up quickly (Feb 1), so I'm not giving a
lot of time for discussion. I'm aiming for about 1 week of discussion and
then we'll give sellers 2 weeks to adjust the descriptions on affected items
if they wish to retain the distinctions.

I plan to construct a full FAQ page with answers to all your questions. This
will serve to inform users about what was done here in February 2024, and also
help point the catalog in the right direction in the future.

To get started, I'll list a few here:

1. This sounds like you're dumbing down the BrickLink catalog to make
it easier for new users. Is that what is going on?


Not really. There are many, many other variants we expect people to sort and
care about. These ones don't really seem to matter much, and some of them
(e.g., the minifigure heads) actually cause problems for the catalog that cannot
be corrected otherwise.

2. What if I really care about a certain variant that is going away? Can I
still buy and sell that variant?


Absolutely! You can add notes to your listings to make them as "determined"
as you wish. Buyers can still search within notes for extra details, or they
can simply observe them as they browse listings.

3. How do I know which exact variants will be merged? I only see one example
in each category.


Please ask in this thread and I can be very specific. Usually we are talking
about a handful of parts and the printed versions.

4. Has a merge like this ever been done before?

Yes, there was a precedent - the Headlight Brick with Slot:

https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1016584

It was marked for deletion a few years ago and was finally merged last August.

5. Are these the only parts up for consideration, or are there other variants
that will be merged as well?


This is all for now. Based on how well this goes, we may elect to remove other
entries later. However, we will keep all functional variants and important cosmetic
variants.

  As suggested many times before, why don't you allow sellers to indicate which
variants may have been mixed in a lot and allow buyers to specify which variants
they care about.

One of the problem as of right now is that in 30/50/70% of the cases (depending
the lot), the variants sold are NOT what they say, it's just an Inventory
error/typo.

Take this lot randomly found:
https://store.bricklink.com/Coinms66?sID=3078061&itemID=334785050

I could bet a paycheck those aren't actual 3068a.

You could be right indeed. New 3068a for just $0.07 each? Hard to believe. Really
new 3068a would be much more expensive .

Did you charge too little or too much? If the latter you can do a partial refund.
If the former, I think you should eat the cost.

Charged too little.. simple mistake but yes, I guess I should eat it..

Correct. We will remove it if it is listed as a custom entry.

Then how come these items are allowed in the Catalog while never being released
officially by TLG?

* 
3001special Brick 2 x 4 special (special bricks, test bricks and/or prototypes)
Parts: Brick

Because there are a special few cases where the LEGO Group has asked us specifically
to not allow the item to have a presence on BrickLink. The Osprey is one, the
above-mentioned Christmas set is another one.

We also make our own decisions from time to time to protect the BrickLink marketplace
- examples of these are the train rims, rubber bands, transparent minifigures,
and lately counterfeit minifigures and counterfeit minifigure parts.

We take action on listings that have the potential of ruining our reputation,
and unfortunately sometimes we end up removing some of the good when we are clearing
out the bad. But we've put a lot of effort into not being too restrictive,
especially for items of historical value.

Thank you for your reply.

Those all look like Trans-Neon Green. Trans-Neon Yellow has a slight orange tint
to it rather than the slight green tint.

I guess that helps me, thx!

  We are selling used Lego and I make a strong effort to keep worn and severely
beat up pieces out of inventory. Some of the moderate play wear I’ve included
in our inventory but with descriptions. But there is some Lego I have that must
have gone to a prison or were driven over by big wheels in a driveway, they are
straight up abused! But I don’t have the heart to throw them out.

Has anyone known people that buy really beat up Lego? If there was a rare part
that was beat up, do people still buy them?

You could sell them as 'fillerbricks' it seems there is some market for

I don't know why that render showed up in my post. If you go to the part
page and look at the black picture, it does look like what you have. And the
measurements are right. It COULD be fake, but it does seem to me the same piece.

thanks! there is indeed an image of the item in black, hadn't seen it but
it looks exactly the same
