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.

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.

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,

Is this allowed or is it even possible after payment?

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.

In Buying, popsicle writes:
  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

-popsicle


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

How about a regular hair dryer?


A regular hair dryer is better because it doesn't get so hot....

  Hello, how it is possible to refund some buyer that paid by IBAN? We did issue

  I received a message from someone saying they have approx. £80 worth of figures
in their basket but don't have PayPal and can they pay via IBAN. I've
not taken payment this way before but understand that it can be done. I have
my IBAN number and told them to go to their cart and request an invoice, thinking
I can send them the IBAN details that way. However they say there's no option
to request an invoice....is this an option I need to turn on? I've had a
quick look in the payment details and can't see how to turn anything like
IBAN payments on. Anyone know what I need to do???

Thanks in advance!

Where does the buyer come from? If he comes from the EU, it is not possible to
pay by IBAN. You need an online payment option so that BL can calculate and collect
the import tax.

  As I saw Bricklink process my invoice for a customer, I saw that Paypal's
tax collection system collects tax on the shipping cost. Is that correct? is
that how it should be? It seems to me that shipping cost should not be taxable.


It's not Paypal, it's Bricklink.

  Does anyone know how many copies does one brown box contain for the following
sets?

Since I'd like to get the original Lego brown box for suppliers, so I wish
to know how many copies does the following sets contain.

Lego 60286 (Recycling Truck)
Lego 60335 (Train Station)

Welcome guess according to size of the box or your experience, if you don't
know exactly the number for these two particular sets.

60286 hatte 4 Stück und 60335 hat 2

Viele Grüße,
Tobias


Yes im sure. The Box size of this set is 53.9 x 28.2 x 11.5 cm
In this size nearly 99% of the sets come in this amount.
  Are you sure that 60335 contain 2? I am surprised. It isn't a big set.

By the way, do you have any idea about 60336 (the freight train) 1 or 2 in a
box?

Im Händlerkarton für das Set 60336 sind ebenfalls 2 Sets.


Hi Dino. I am Dinosaur. XD


Du wirst es nicht glauben, aber ich habe es mir fast gedacht.


Oh I see. Last but not least, do you know if most Creator Expert modular buildings
and other giant sets e.g. Icon 10316 (THE LORD OF THE RINGS: RIVENDELL™) come
with only 1 set in a box (Original brown box)

Ja, von diesem Set ist immer nur 1 in den braunen Umkartons.


Sorry. Do you know how many sets in one (original) box for 60388 (Gaming Tournament
Truck). I do not want to order more than needed. However, I like to get the brown
box.

I have recieved and order request from my neighbour country to whom I do not
send at the moment (I did do so in the past) and have given him the bypass code
to order from a country u usually do not ship to.
However the option to enter this code does not pop up in his screen

Is this due to the VAT registration or any other thoughts?


He can add items. When I goes to pay, he can enter the code.

Fill out form CN22 and stick it on the outside of the package and put an invoice
inside the package. That's all.
