| | Ik heb er enige tijd terug voor gekozen niet meer naar de USA te verzenden.
Sinds COVID zijn de verzendkosten bizar gestegen (ook vanuit de USA naar Europa
overigens).
Inmiddels 12 euro voor een brievenbuspakje met tracking van max 100 gram is mij
echt te gek.
Zélfs als een koper het zou willen betalen begin ik er niet meer aan.

Een buspakje naar Amerika kost €4,25... voor iedereen die niet zwart verdient
tenminste. Maar tot (maarliefst) €20K omzet kun je gebruik maken van de kleine
ondernemersregeling, waardoor je geen BTW betaalt. Waarschijnlijk zowel de eerlijkste
als ook de financieel aantrekkelijkste optie onder de streep.

Is it that big a deal if only a minority of your business is here?
Exactly the type of antics why we've already moved most of our business
away from
this platform.

Clever, but I can do you one better 
Why is it a minority? Because Bricklink does things this way. I'm not disappointed
in Bricklink because I am selling elsewhere - I am selling elsewhere because
I am disappointed in Bricklink.

| | Hi
Have you made changes to the (Update Store Inventory -- PUT - /inventories/{inventory_id})
API request?
Previously you could call the API with the following parameters and would have
no issues:
['quantity' = '-2']
Now it's responding with:
["description":"String input must not be null","message":"PARAMETER_MISSING_OR_INVALID"]
Weirdly a couple of requests have completed successfully but most of the requests
are failing with the above error message. Can someone please advise what this
error is and if it's a bug that has been released into the API by accident?
|
I can confirm relative updates are broken with the API.
|
Correction, inventory update using the API in general seems broken. Relative
or not.
|
The fix is to specify the "description" field.
{"quantity":4, "description":""}
Works fine and fixes it as far as I can tell.
|
Can confirm! Thanks Erwin!

| | It would also help if Bricklink exposed a stable surrogate key (itemId iirc)
via the API, so that syncing tools can still map parts correctly even when the
design/part/item number is changed.
|
Why? To facilitate people to sell elsewhere? See, I'm not sure...
|
You're making up motivations that I didn't express.
|
"syncing tools"?
| | It's common to use offline inventory management tools (like BrickStore, or
many others, including custom solutions).
These all break to some degree when the design number changes because the Bricklink
API uses a mutable field as the identifier.
|
BrickStore didn't have a problem with this change - and other changes -,
it checks the catalog change logs.
Of course this could be nice for the 100/500 hyper computerized sellers.
|
Well, it's really not 'going an extra mile' to change things in a
clean, consistent way. That's just how you do anything in a professional
way. We're not asking for anything extra, we are asking for things to be
done in a non-chaotic way. You fix a road by announcing it, closing it, changing
it, then opening it again. If you start fixing small bits at a time and it causes
dangerous situations, you can't blame it on the drivers if something goes
wrong. We can praise Brickstore for being able to handle it, but it doesn't
excuse how Bricklink is doing this.

sellers, and why not buyers.

What helps all buyers is if I could be open for business, and right now I can't...
