Are misprints worth anything ?

Just found a 3069bpx19 Lbg version, printed on the bottom of the tile rather
than the top.

Forgot to mention, the sale includes the Jango Fett (balaclava head) figure from
the slave 1

With help from admin I have now been fully resurrected.

Now I have to change the settings (esp the postage costs) and add some inventory

WOW, great to see you back Slim!

  Hello,
in my opinion it would be a good "behavior" of BL, when a new order is created
in the case the buyer has PAID for the an "open" order. This should be the case
when:
- either the buyer has marked an order as "paid"
- or the seller has marked an order with "payment received"

I find it is not a good idea, to add items to an order, which already is PAID!
This behavior would be good for both buyers and sellers, I think.
The only way today to get a new order, when there is another (not shipped) order,
is to set status to "packed". But this requires, that the buyer has TO CONTACT
the seller to let him change order status. But this is not satisfying me, since:
- mails are often not read at once, so items may be already sold before status
is changed by the seller.
- the order is not really, i.e. physically "packed", which does prevent some
seller to set status to "packed" before it is really packed.

Since it is easy for BL to change this behavior, this feature will depend on
the opion of the BL users, I think.

Kind regards,
André

As far as I am aware it is no longer possible to add to an order once it is marked
as paid

I seem to remember that this option was added after a similar suggestion was
made some months ago

  Would it be possible to have the catalog images and price/quantity information
closer together when browsing a seller's store? Currently, while browsing items
for sale in a BL shop, the catalog images and price/quantity info are almost
one entire screen apart. The images are on the left side of the screen and the
price/quantity is on the edge of the right side of the screen. To see what I
mean, take a look at my own shop and click on the link for "show all items":

http://www.bricklink.com/store.asp?p=fosterbengoshi

When scrolling through that screen, I cannot easily see the images and prices
without constantly looking left and right, left and right, over and over again.
Maybe I have tunnel vision or too large a monitor, but I could shop and scroll
through listings 2-3 times faster if I could see the images and prices next to
each other.

Of course, some people are comfortable with the way things are now, so please
make this an OPTION for buyers if at all possible. Thanks in advance.

Thor

twice in the last year I have had buyers buy this part

http://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?P=3710&colorID=104

only to complain that I sent the wrong colour.(bright pink rather than white)

I am sure that there are more examples of this in the catalog.

Any move which would mean that even more people could avoid reading the part
description, and only shop using the pictures/price, would likely cause more
problems of this type.

Slim (who would add a small pic of the bright pink plate even only his camera
was working)
