| | | That wouldn't work well, because it would be exploited by scam sellers --
they would never mark the orders as shipped, so they would not get negative feedback
and could extend their scam. or, for a less extreme example, a seller.who thinks
they might get a negative could avoid it by not marking the order as shipped.

Not if the original button is left alone for posting mass feedback.
I do like the idea as long as there was a "Contact Buyer" button right next to
it as already suggested.

| You guys have to be kidding me!! The reason it has the word 'Now' is
not for the sake of demanding anything. Think about it guys, the word is part
of the phrase "Pay Your Fees Now" and is attached to a button that directly takes
you to a page to do what?... To pay your fees now, not latter but now.
It is the correct grammar for the situation and to add please to the button would
actually be incorrect because the phrase "Pay Your Fees Now is not asking you
to do anything, it is not a demand, not even a statement - it is a button.
By giving us the button, "Pay Your Fees Now", they are just trying to simplify
the procedure so that we don't have to hunt around to figure out how to pay
our fees.

| | Hello,
Can someone explain me why are feedback allowed for cancelled orders?
Example: I have a buyer, who bought hundreds of euro of stuff from me. After
7 days you can start a NPB. After 14 days you can cancel the order if you are
lucky that they do not reply. If they reply, it needs 21 days to cancel the order.
If you cancel the order BEFORE 21 days, they can leave a negative feedback.
If you cancel the order after those 21 days, they cannot leave a negative feedback.
So I usually wait 21 days (or 14 if I am lucky).
Thus, people can block hundreds of euro worth of lego from your store for 21
days. Yes, they will have a penalty, but it's however a big loss for a seller.
I believe that it would be more useful if no feedback for cancelled order was
allowed.
Please if I am not correct help me to be corrected.

That is not a good idea. The principle behind the idea is good but in general
it is not a good idea because unscrupulous people can use it to their advantage.
Examples:
1, I am a seller and you purchase some parts from me but one lot the average
price has sky rocketed and I realize that I can actually sell them for allot
more - no problem, I just cancel the order and block you from my store. no explanation
to you, nothing. Now I don't need to worry about any negative feed back.
2, I am a seller (like House Of Logos) and I have become really behind in filling
orders. You contact me about the fact that I have not sent you your order for
over a month - no problem. I just refund you your money, cancel your order and
again, no worries about negative feed backs.
There are allot more examples that could be brought up. The point is that preventing
leaving feed back for canceled orders can be abused.

There are a lot of way around it but I agree, it would be nice to just have a
simple way of sending a pic right thru BL but not of cats, just dogs ONLY.

| | When the first party in the transaction clicks on the little negative feedback
dot, show a list of reasons for leaving negative feedback, including an Other
with the ability to explain in detail.
The list should include reasons that qualify for NPB, NSS, or NRS. The person
should be advised to use those options first.
Hold the feedback in limbo for a short specified time to give the other party
an opportunity to respond in a way that bricklink can see.
If the first party receives no response during the hold time, the feedback can
be posted. The second party should be able to post their own feedback under
the same method, if they can show a reasonable cause for not responding.
In other words, give the two parties the requirement to communicate through bricklink
first, outside of feedback and the Forum!

I think this is the best, well thought out, idea on how to improve the FB system.
Thor made a good point though (in his normal way of non constructiveness on steroids)
about scam scum so I would say that with one adjustment this would be a great
thing for BL to implement. The adjustment I propose would be that anyone buying
from a seller with 20 or less selling FB can leave FB at any time.

I agree. I still sometimes get confused when finalizing an NPB and have to then
rethink the procedure to make sure I am not canceling the NPB.

You have misinterpreted my suggestion. I did not suggest changing I asked to
have the Lego colour names added to the colour charts.

Actually, you didn't really make any suggestions. The closest thing to a
suggestion was: "...could the Bricklink developers not come up with a better
idea than the current colour chart for the catalogue. Perhaps similar to the
very old and outdated Peeron one"
I agree with calsbricks that new customers that come to BL probably don't
know the official Lego colors any more then BL's. I also agree with what
you suggested above that it would be nice to have the Lego official colors added
to the color chart, providing that Lego dose not cause legal issues with the
Lego Group.

| | | Meh. Is it really a big deal? People misunderstand each other all the time. I
get misunderstood on the forum pretty much every day (including today). I don't
think it's anything to worry about.

| | Hi
Since the website is now in another hands (since a certain amount of time now),
i am afraid that Bricklink start to capitalize in some weird ways and decide
to show some advertisings (for anything) in one or another corner.
My suggestion is to keep this website clean, for the comfort of all members.
This is a important trait of Bricklink since the beginning.
Thanks
from all members
