Hi all,

every month we get more and more new buyers here on Bricklink... a good thing!

but...as I can see in my own shop, more and more NPB's are given.


And I think the NPB system does not work at all!

A seller who accepts the penalty can have his buying privilges revoked after
3 times....


BUT... when they just ignore the NPB, nothing happens, nothing at all! We have
to cancel the order as we do not want to pay for fees on an order that was not
paid to us...


why is it possible to ignore wthe NPB system? It should be automatically go into
NPX status after 2 weeks.

You either buy and commit yourself to this binding contract or you solve the
problem.


If a buyer kindly asks me, I cancel the order, no problem.


But ignoring me or just wasting my time deserves proper warnings!


NPB should automatically change to NPX after 2 weeks, simple as that, or solve
it properly!



Just my 2 cents (not paid yet)



Be cool and have fun!

The entire NPB problem can be solved by tightly coupling payment for the order.
No payment, no order. It's that simple.

As far as I am aware, if the buyer does not respond to the NPB by the date stated
at the top when it is filed, the seller can then complete the NPB and cancel
the order. The NPB then goes automatically as one of their 3 strikes. They don't
have to respond and accept the NPB for this to happen.

Complete the NPB instead of just cancelling the order.
The buyer gets a strike on his account and your fees are credited.
This way you're also protected against any unwarranted feebdack.

Complete the NPB after the 7 days.

Sellers can complete the NPB after 7 days and cancel the order.
