Hello all you good people,

I have been away for a while but I have reopened my store and added 2 small sets.
Getting to relearn the new things which are added to the site and also the new
shipping policies/rules for my country (no parts can be shipped in a bubblewrap
anymore !?).

Not really going to be a biggish store anymore and mostly selling sets instead
of parts (this is what I sold last time).

But I'm looking forward to getting into selling again, just for a hobby.
Maybe sell some of my moc's aswell.....we will see.

Keep on building,

Piet aka YosemiteSam.
Owner of pietsbricks

  Hello all you good people,

Hi,

  […]
Getting to relearn the new things which are added to the site […]

You’ll want an “Onsite” payment method, like Stripe or PayPal Onsite (which is
different from PayPal), in order to sell to UK, Australia, and most of the USA
(and more to come).

By new⁰ laws, BrickLink has to collect some taxes on buyers from these countries¹
and BL can only do that with “Onsite” payment methods.

You will also want to check your templates (invoice…) to remove any mention of
other ways of payment for these buyers (that could be considered as tax evasion). 
Some old templates may also block invoicing.

If you don’t have an Onsite payment method for buyers in UK, AU, USA…, those
buyers won’t be able to buy from you and will see a (confusing) message saying
you don’t ship to them.


More info here:

AU: https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2597

———
° Applied from 2020-2021 here.
¹ For EU too, but it doesn’t affect you as a seller because you’re in EU.  It’ll
affect you as a buyer: import VAT will be collected by BL for your orders below
€150 from outside EU.

Than for the reply, I will look in to that.
I knew there where some different things added, but didn't know exactly which
ones.

Taxes.  You’ll never lose by betting on new taxes or new ways to pay them.

Today's reality and frankly not much to grin about... But hey, if you can't
smile through the tragic realities of our time, why bother? So keep them coming,

like a wise man once said. taxes are just a yearly subscription cost for whatever
country you live in

What about sales tax? That's just the cost of doing business.
