This is getting ridicules. If you always have 20% off, you do not have 20% off;
it is just your regular price. Claiming that it is 20% off is false marketing.

And what is the purpose of these daily messages? I am sure that they contribute
more to people mark your store as least favourite that to more sales.

too bad you shouldn't have posted such a weird message I just wanted to increase
my sales but well this is not allowed but store is now closed because of you
because of your message so everyone is happy

Don't close your store because of this. If you have parts people want you
will get sales, just be patient.

Please consider how many stores and members are here. If everyone posted messages
every day in the forum trying to promote their store... well you can probably
guess that would just be silly. Reality is, as the last poster said, you will
likely not get much business by spamming the forum but you will "annoy folks".
Just FYI, we have sold a lot on here but have never announced "a sale"


Good luck!

it's very simple i have 45k inventory and no more so everything was online
have a feedback that went up already 20 orders no complaints only good but if
you can't add more lego you won't get any customers and selling too few
lego means no be able to buy new legos for your store

That is because there is a huge oversupply of Lego in general for sale on this
site. Many items have 10 years+ inventory at current sales rates. Adding more
and more is simply a trap and as you say that will not make you money, it will
just cost you. The reality is that selling on BL is a long term game, you have
to wait until someone wants an item (or hopefully a number of items) then they
will search for it and buy it. The only other way to stimulate demand for your
inventory is to reduce the price but that means actually reducing it not repeating
the same 20% off. Most buyers don't look for parts on the forum or by looking
for sales, they find them by searching and then comparing actual prices, shipping
costs, store reputation, etc - they will have already seem your items if they
are looking for them. If you are patient, sales will come but don't expect
to sell everything quickly, there is just too much inventory on BL for that to
happen. Of course you can sell quicker if you sell very cheap but then you will
not make any profit and will be working for nothing or even at a loss. I suspect
your expectations of this market place are a little high.

  no my expectations are not high at all because then I would have bet on only
90s lego space pirates tecnic western but if you let everything depend on only
good feedback until it is at 100% again


You're wrong on many things.

1) Apart if the feedback system changes completely, you will NEVER have 100%
again.

2) Sales are IN VAST MAJORITY due to good prices, good service, best shipping,
number of lots and quantity of items.

3) Sales are VERY RARELY coming either from Forum or Main page when you're
advertising a sale. Apart maybe when you do a killer operation like 50% OFF and
free shipping. And even with that, 50% OFF if your prices are double won't
bring you more buyers.

People rarely come in your shop from Forum or main page - people use Wanted Lists,
rebrickable, Price Guide, or know your shop and start manually their shopping
from here (it gets rarer).

Much more, the more you erroneously advertise, the more you'll end up in
Least Favorite shops list of the buyers.

Note: your sale message in forum has been read maybe 50 times, so maybe 33 different
people. There is half a million buyers maybe. Forum doesn't bring you much
about Sales.

Hoping that helps?

Sorry.

I assume Bricklink management checked the age on their ID when they opened/reopened
their store. But yeah, between the "lying about a new owner" fiasco,
their reactions to any criticism or advice, and their responses in this thread,
this person certainly seems like a teenager.

free shipping. And even with that, 50% OFF if your prices are double won't
bring you more buyers.

People rarely come in your shop from Forum or main page - people use Wanted Lists,
rebrickable, Price Guide, or know your shop and start manually their shopping
from here (it gets rarer).

Much more, the more you erroneously advertise, the more you'll end up in
Least Favorite shops list of the buyers.

Note: your sale message in forum has been read maybe 50 times, so maybe 33 different
people. There is half a million buyers maybe. Forum doesn't bring you much
about Sales.

Hoping that helps?

store is closed and will remain closed see previous posts why

and will stay closed basta

Thats it, you show them who's boss !!! Now go play outside with your friends.

OP, these folks have very solid points about the forum spamming and the perpetual
sales. Please take it under consideration.

In the past he closed but then reopened. You might be able to find it in a few
old threads

Why would they care if their store was closed when they want it to be closed?


This person has no conviction.

If that is the case he can no longer claim he is giving a 20% discount because
it would be the actual starting price.

It has always been the actual starting price and it never bothered him (nor his
“predecessor”) before….
