Now
I don't know whether a seller has to register as a corporation to be considered
a "business".

That’s the usual problem: some like to hide behind “I’m not incorporated” / “I’m
not registered.”
So other criteria are used: buying to resell, number of transactions, gross income….
But all that is local / can only be verified locally.
So, for importations, the rule is simplified to: if it’s not a gift (below such
amount) then it’s business.

(Otherwise, if I were country X, I would say: all the businesses that export
aren’t considered businesses by country X, so they aren’t businesses for any
other country either!)

That being said, I don’t know how the package tax works….

Since January, the Germans have a new law. The "Platform Tax Transparency
Act". It obliges online sales platforms to report all sellers who have either
made more than 30 sales or earned more than 2,000 euros a year. The report is
made in January of the following year. So for the first time in 2024.

What is the number of the sets?

  Thanks for the input - I can find the individual sets, but using the catalog
'found in' function doesn't include this magazine pack.

I can't find it in the catalog. Here is a picture of both sides of the pack.
Any ideas?

These are exclusive sets for Blue Oceans Publishing's LEGO Star Wars magazines.
The sets should have a number on them, e.g. 912055, where 20 is the year of issue
and 55 is the number of the magazine.

Ja, es dürfen nur noch Dokumente mit der Versandart Brief versendet werden. Das
Comicbuch und die Maske sind Waren. Ich gehe mal davon aus, daß du als Verkäufer,
ordnungsgemäß das Formular CN22 ausgefüllt und es außen aufgeklebt hast. Ja,
die Sendungen werden gescannt und Päckchen/Pakete geröntgt.

  Ich habe ein Maxibrief mit den Massen 35cm x 25cm x 5cm (Alles nach Vorschrift)
nach Kanada verschickt. Versandpreis mit tracking code €7,20. Heute kam es wieder,
mit der Begründung es wäre Ware enthalten gewesen. Gut es war ein Comic und eine
Lego Bionicle Maske drin die aber keinen Geräusche gemacht hat beim hin und herschütteln.
Kann es sein das dieses mega Unternehmen Deutsche Post abscannt oder röntgt.
Was meint Ihr ?

PS: Ich weiß das ab dem Jahr 2019 die AGBs bei der Deutschen Post sich geändert
haben, also auch der Verssand.

  Hi,

I want to buy a set, but then I found this in the store terms:

We are never responsible for lost packages. By paying the invoice you accept
our store policies, paypal chargeback will result in NPB!

Is this allowed or is it even possible after payment?

Werner

It is a load of nonsense. No matter how badly you want the set, I don't
recommend you purchase from a seller who expresses such a cranky attitude in
their terms.

No, I didn't buy the set.

  Was looking to buy as many as I could from any source/site, within a given price
range, a certain LEGO item...

This particular vendor had sold many (being myself, late to the game) with only
two remaining available to buy within the listing. So I bought the two remaining
and paid the shipping, thinking the price made the shipping cost of the two well
worth it. I then noticed the vendor loaded a further two to the listing with
a one dollar increase each, so I bought them. Again evaluating the costs as within
my range. After which, the vendor loaded another two with a further one dollar
increase in price, and again I bought those.

This pattern repeats itself up to today’s purchase...

Now, all five transactions fall within my targeted acquisition price, so I’m
good. That said, while USPS has made out like a bandit as I hope did the vendor,
if the seller only would have contacted me after the first or second buy and
stated their total inventory and desired price for said inventory, I surely would
have bought all in a single transaction. At the very least, dividing the USPS
and packaging costs between us, buyer and vendor.

Okay, I could have and indeed would have, made the move myself had the item not
been underpriced to begin with. You deal hunters know what I'm talking about

Just some fun and candid thoughts being shared

I would have asked him after the first time how many he had and what he wanted
for them.
