| Hi, I'm a Mexico based seller, who's main mission is to serve the mexican
LEGO market and expand Mexico's BL user base.
Last month I received a couple of orders from the US for regular pieces and minifigs,
and that made me expand my vision, including the american users as a potential
market to sell as well.
I'm seeking for some guidance and/or tips to achieve this, but also request
for the kind opinion of anyone willing to take a minute of their time to check
out my store from an american buyer perspective to find opportunities to appeal
more to the massive market the US represents.
Thanks in advance.

My first comment/recommendation would be to try and have an English option on
your landing page or have the information in both English and Spanish.

From my point of view looks pretty good, not too many items to select from though,
i would focus on expanding your store, as you do that more people will purchase,
but for the most part as long as you are a small store, americans will continue
to go to medium, and large stores in USA, for selection and prices. If you expand,
and have lower prices than medium and large american stores, than more americans
will come to you, just my thinking about it.

| In your international shipping tables, put the weight brackets in ounces/pounds
also as that is what we Americans use.

Or don't - let"s educate the Americans!

| Some of us here still use both lbs and kgs, or maybe it’s just me.
We never did fully convert with all units.

Perch, Poppyseed, Barleycorn, Finger, Pal, Hand, Shaftment, Ell, Fathom, Spyndle,
Hanks, Rood, Oxgang, Virgate, Furlong, Carucate, Gille, Pinte, Quart (sec), Pelletée
(french term), Boisseau (french), Barrique (french), Gallon, Once fluide, Fahrenheit...
Very interesting and bringing much historical sense, but sooooooo complicated!
A wonderful mess
