Dear Staff,

I'm one of the executive member of enclosed Turkish LEGO Users Group (Turklug)
and one of the founder of Istanbul LEGO Users Group (IstanLUG). Last 7 years
me and my friends organized Turkish LEGO Fans to be a RLUG, arranging so many
meetings, contests and community projects in our country.

We're sellers and buyers from Turkey whom deals with government's bad
decisions nowadays. After 6th of June, PayPal is retreat from our country because
of governments some regulations. Not only for bricklink we're blocked to
buy stuff and sell our works for using PayPal. PayPal authorities said that they
are working on this situation to solve immediately but nobody know when they
will solve it.

As you know Bricklink request fees only on PayPal account. We're unable to
pay our bricklink fees anymore. Please add different payment method for paying
our fees to bricklink. If it is not possible we'll want limitless postponement
to paying our fees to bricklink.

Kindly regards

For your information: you don't need a Paypal account to pay to a
Paypal account, you can open the payment tab and select 'other method'
and pay straight from credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, etc),
so I don't think there would be any reason why Bricklink would not bill you
or agree to accept a longer delay on payment.
Obviously, it does mean you should have a credit card allowed by Paypal...

It sounds like they won't be able to use paypal at all, with or without an
account.

of June.

Shouldn't you be removing PayPal from your terms now. You could get an order,
have it not paid for six days, then you'd be breaking your store terms if
you don't accept payment through PayPal.

I voted yes even though it doesn't really relate to me, just showing a sign
of solidarity.
I visited Turkey back in the 90's and got to meet a lot of Turkish Air Force
pilots when i was in the air force.
It's a Wonderful country and even more wonderful and welcoming peaceful people
(and the food was fantastic!) it's a shame that many of your citizens are
forced into oppressive predicaments by your current government.
Best wishes, Good Luck and above all: Peace.

That's really tough, especially with only seven days notice. I imagine it
will hit sales badly for Turkish sellers. You do not have "stripe" in Turkey,
either, do you?

No, we do not have stripe too. "Winter is coming" for us.

Hi,


I am very sorry for all Turkish citizens!

What payment methods will you be able to use in the future?
I (and I am sure many others) would love to offer a payment method specifically
for Turkish buyers to show our solidarity!

Hello,

Only PayPal is not available on our country soon. Others like Google Wallet,
Payoneer, Skrill can be used. One important thing is ignored. Bricklink staff
have to give us another payment method for pay bricklink fees. We can not use
PayPal anymore and we can not pay our bills to Bricklink with PayPal. Dear BRICKLINK
STAFF, Please share another payment method for fees.

Bricklink administrators have to see our request, we want a reply.
