I have an order currently where the buyer apparently paid by an echeck and the
PAID status has a Exclamation icon next to the status. https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=121

   Paid / Pending - Payment has been submitted but is still being confirmed by PayPal (typically due to an eCheck payment). Please do not ship until payment is confirmed. When PayPal confirms that the payment has cleared, the pending payment icon will no longer show next to the order payment status.

I have used the API to build an order pulling program to help me pull orders
more efficiently. I can not figure out how to identify this order as pending
using the API.

Order status is PAID and payment.status that is returned says 'Received'


This has to be a bug. The Paid / Pending flag is not a status. Either this
order should be a different status other than PAID or the payment.status should
be something other than "Received" cause neither is correct until the
payment clears.

Please advise!

Sellers please check your inventory that you have listed the part 64251 correctly.

I have recently made this mistake and a seller I just bought from made this same
mistake.

 
Part No: 64251  Name: Bionicle Fist with Axle Hole - 3 Fingers
* 
64251 Bionicle Fist with Axle Hole - 3 Fingers
Parts: BIONICLE {Black}

Action: Please ensure your inventory of this part as listed is the 3 finger
variant 64251 and not the Hero Factory 4 finger variant, 93575.


 
Part No: 93575  Name: Hero Factory Fist with Axle Hole - 4 Fingers
* 
93575 Hero Factory Fist with Axle Hole - 4 Fingers
Parts: Hero Factory {Black}

Here are the stores with this part listed https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=64251#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}

In part 1 of a 2 part Brick Separators interview with LEGO Masters US Finalist
Caleb Shilling we talk to him about how he buys and his experiences buying on
BrickLink.

As a seller it's a great look into how builders think about parts and how
they use BrickLink to add unique parts to their collection.

You can watch Part 1 now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daC_TgM-Nkc

Subscribe now so you don't miss part 2 which will be posted January 5th.

I keep getting a "Something went wrong. Please try again." error when issuing
a partial refund.

Is there a known issue with refunds not working?
