Not really sure what has offended you but least favourite is a bit on the harsh
side isn't it?

The choice wou;ld be the stores if that is what they want. There has to be a
better way to deal with this which is fair and equitable on all sides. - the
current situation is not . At least if they were not allowed to buy from your
store until they established themselves as a genuine buyer they would not be
least favorite but now they get a completed npb and negative feedback and are
stop listed.
|
So you don't want any new buyers at bricklink, unless other sellers deal
with them first until they are proven to be good enough to shop with you?
Maybe it is a good idea. Combined with fee changes. Sellers that allow new buyers
(necessary to keep the site alive in the long term) should get lower fees, offset
by higher fees for those that will only accept orders from established buyers.
|
Not sure I agree with that. Fees are not the issue. Non-serious buyers are. At
present you can choose the countries you sell to you,can set your terms and your
prices all fine but you cannot decide who to sell to within the countries that
you serve other than negative feeback. So expand that a bbd let stores/businesses
choose - but penalise them for making a sensible business decision - not sure
that would go down well at all.

Have had a spurt of these over the last couple of months - IC is not the answer
for us we need another tool or option, perhaps where we can set a minimum feedback
level for a buyers first order - an option of course and that would allow stores
to choose rather than Bricklink.

| | I agree with this, I've had 6 NPB since June, and 2 of those even had 10
- 20 positive feedback!
It's absolutely ridiculous, I have quotes enabled & it's the first thing
you see in my store terms, yet these people just go on ahead and place orders
only to never reply when contacted through Bricklink and to the email listed
in the order
At this point I have no problem issuing NPB, though I wish Bricklink would lower
the wait time for sellers as it takes close to 2 weeks to complete the NPB complaint
- it would be better if they made it 7 days total (3 before filing, 4 before
completing the NPB after it was filed)
If the buyer doesn't reply within the first 3 days, I think it's safe
to say they aren't going to pay

Interesting not just us who has seen a rise

Cal, they are already linked due to fingerprinting of browsers, unless you use
two browsers, one each exclusively for each task. Then, using big data, they
have other ways of linking the two. It is the world we live in, but I don't
have to like it or help make their job easier.

One of the first things to appear was the question,
"Is BrickLink a trusted site?"
And it took me to sitejobber which has a generally unfavorable view of BrickLink.

To be fair the sample size they are using is totally irrelevant. The site has
over 11k in stores and approaching 1 million in members. To take those review
seriously you need a much larger sample size. .

It would at least allow you to rule out the "Save as PDF" driver and place the
blame squarely on Edge

| | Windows 7 and everything was working fine until today (Edge updated itself last
noght)
We understood that xps was Microsoft's effort to counter the dominance of
pdf (And it never worked)
Microsoft print to pdf outside of edge works fine we use it all the time within
edge it is a different story
Up until this morning everythig was fine when we saved to pdf then opened the
pdf in adobe combined it with our order cover sheet If we used the edge print
to pdf command the pdf it created was not editable in other words we could not
copy text and paste it., which we can do when we save as pdf.
From this morning it has adjusted the font size to almost unreadable and that
is even with the scale set to maximum. Like almost everything Microsoft do they
very rarely get it right first time. The office suite has detreated significantly
as they continue to push to do everything via the web.

Just tried that and it seems to work - which confirms it is an edge issue. Thanks
