Hi,

I posted on here about a week ago because I couldn't send messages, and now
I understand that's typical for a new user. I tried to get some help from
Bricklink, but last I heard, my issue was being referred to the "admin team."
That was five days ago, I haven't received any contact since, and a follow-up
request for assistance went unanswered, so I guess I can't get help there.

A few people offered to message the buyer on my behalf, and I was trying not
to go that route, but it looks like I might have to. Anyone willing to send
a message to bader, owner of Bad Bricks, to let him know that I was hoping to
get a coupon he offered in his terms? If he needs to contact me, he's welcome
to, assuming things are set up so I can respond.

Apologies to bader and all the rest of you for having to go this route, but I've
run out of options.

Thanks in advance!

Done. Forgot to ask before I made an order with him a while back.

Such a well-established seller but strange they have not enabled quote option
(and no instant check-out).

If you read the message you've linked to a little more closely, you'll
see that the admin said "one of the new members that was recently complaining
in the Forum" was a spammer, not that that I was that spammer! (Russell
starts that very message by thanking other forum users for offering to help me.)

I do really appreciate the offers of help, and I have no intention of asking
for anything else on this forum. What exactly would a spammer get out of having
someone else send one message asking one buyer for a coupon anyway?

Thanks again, Tracyd. For what it's worth, I am a real person who just wants
to purchase one Lego set--and I'm also not a "he."

Someone selling items is a seller not a buyer.

That message was referring to someone else, not the OP.
