As the title says, I am trying to open a new store and PayPal won't connect.
Anyone else having this issue?
I go to become a seller, I fill out all the info and then click the connect PayPal
button.
I log into PayPal and click to use my personal account and then it say success
and has a link
to go back to brick link. I click that and boom it goes back to brick link and
the page is all blank
nothing saved.
That's the issue im having, im trying to upgrade as a seller, following the
steps and running into this issue?
You seem to be getting things backwards. You first have to upgrade to seller
and then connect you PayPal and not connect your PayPal then upgrade to seller.
If you look at your id card on your forum posts you will see only 1 green box
to indicate your a buyer but if you look at 1001bricks post or my id card on
this one you will see 2 green boxes indicating we are sellers

You aren't authorized to sell yet, as you don't have the selling privilege
(a green square next to your current buyer's one).
Apparently the process isn't completed? Sorry but you've to wait it's
done.
I understand that, I go to upgrade to become a seller page. I type in my store
name and info.
Fill out my currency, where I can ship to and agree to the terms.
that should allow me to apply to become a seller but the box doesn't let
me click.
im assuming it wants me to connect my PayPal before allowing me to apply.
but that's when im having the issues.

Hi,
I think you’re right: I was explained I had to connect my PayPal to become a
seller (to become a moderator).
But that was 4 years ago and I benefited from what we call a “coupe-file” in
French (queue-cut).
Nubs is just old enough not to have had to go through the verification process
(https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=2440 ), and 1001 is touchy when we
talk about his age, so we won’t… er… oops?
So both aren’t the best to answer that.

Times must be changing! Perhaps to the op, try clearing cache and cookies and
try again

BTW, IIRC, the connection should send you to PayPal to authorize BrickLink to
tinker with your (Onsite) transactions. That’s why you need to “connect,” so
that BL(’s partner) can add and collect taxes on the transactions the laws wants
them to do it.
So: are you sent to PP? Are you authorizing BL?

At least we're here when the mods are drinking their pina colada in front
of Netflix, ha!

Yep - had almost 100 at one moment
So we had to take decisions, see new Terms.
We never did this, never thought we'd be obliged to. A bit sad.
I guess the easiness to make and buy WLs has a hand in that.
More people are coming just to buy one MOC/WL and only that MOC/WL, and they
don’t browse or add more parts.

Yeah, you’re here instead of shipping the 59 (or more now) orders that you need

Never thought I’d see the day 1001bricks charges fees 😭😭😭
Same, never. Now I need a pizza, really.
Pizza could help. Tho just to be in the safe side I just wanted to ask, did you
do testing to see if it hurts sales more to charge fees or to put a min purchase
value per lot? Both have negatives so I just wanted to check

That's too complicated.
A plate I sell 0.05 why would I put it at 6 or 7 cents; people buying them by
100 or 500 wouldn't buy them anymore.
It's easy to sell 500 Plates 1x1, it takes 1 minute.
But it takes 30 seconds to sell a single.

You could do qty discounts on large qty items and for low qty items it wouldn’t
matter to much as those are usually found based off wanted list searches and
not manual lookups (and I think I heard the wanted list based cart making takes
estimates of shipping/fees into account when choosing which means I slightly
higher prices wouldn’t hurt your wanted list matches)

Bro, read again my registration date on BrickLink
Not to be arrogant, but along those years we've excel'd, database'd,
graph'd, calculated and AI'd everything, you just can't imagine.
To reply, take this 79 lots for 5€ maybe an increase would make 79 lots for what
6€ (that's already a 20% price increase)! And that wouldn't change anything.

sorry I wasn't trying to say you didn't check just wanted to double check
you check to check to make sure you had checked otherwise you could recheck when
I checked to make sure you checked

indeed! those low value high lot orders are the worst, but if you then had the
minimum lot value then they would have to buy more of that item or a higher value
item which makes it more worth it.
Oh like generic, not in a method?
I'm HAPPY to help people, we're here only for this.
A tiny order is no problem (yesterday 1 part).
We just added to it 0.10 because if not we simply can't anymore.
For the buyer it's just 0.10 - it doesn't mean he can't.
for things like that, it could be best to then raise your shipping prices to
be an "all inclusive" package so that people could do this.
person wants to buy a .10 brick, but you have a min lot value of .20 then they
buy 2 + $2 shipping = $2.20
but yes, its like you mentioned, its not a simple solution and each method has
their drawback and with this, there are many factors to take into account which
would change numbers such as what if it was 2 lots of 5 cent bricks or what if
it was this or that. I'm just secretly hoping there is a no fee method available
somehow even tho i know deep down that you probably tried to find one already
and there wasn't one

Sorry about having wasted OP's thread.
I should've change the title, at least, but didn't guess it'd start
a discussion.
Yes, it's the first time we've any fee (below a certain threshold), I
don't complain and don't seek for empathy It's just the no fee
model doesn't work anymore for us.
Neither for Pick a Brick, and they're far more organized and have access
to cheap merchandise and labor than we all are I guess

Min purchase is tough, too tough for buyers who need a single Plate 1x1.
5 cent item, order for 5€ and then add 3€ shipping
That'd be 8.05€ for a part.
Much more it wouldn't change anything.
Last week we received a 79 Lots order for 11€ (half of it being shipping).
So, with a minimum at 5€ it'd be OK the same.
