Why is it that i can set default condition (used or new) when searching things,
but the list of stores from different countries is not an option. i want to look
at just the USA stores, nothing more or less. let me set a default for everything,
or USA only when searching..

There are two issues that keep getting voiced here in 'Suggestions':

- Nobody actually uses 'easy buy' because you can't select Country
/ region.

- You can't save a default location on 'Items for sale' tab.

You gotta be kidding me!

This is the first time this has happened to me in a lot of orders on here.

I ordered what was supposed to be new Lego pieces.

I received used Lepin or other off-brand pieces. One stud on each piece is indented
where the Lego logo would go.

These people should not be allowed to operate on here. Go sell that junk on
fleabay.

as a buyer i need to know what store this was to keep away from or blacklist,
i can't have that kind of negativity in my life.

Well, apparently, it’s BL’s fault to let phishers claim they are BrickLink, because
they are like “hawkers out front of your brick-and-mortar shop all day handing
out flyers to customers” and that you can chase by waving your broom in their
general direction 🤷‍♂️

That comment seems to have gotten gotten under your skin. Why not reply to the
person who made it rather than griping about it to someone else almost a week
later? Unfortunately, as you know, you have misrepresented what I said. That
comment was about forum spammers, not phishers. You are usually so pedantic;
I’m surprised you would overlook such an important distinction.🤷‍♂️

Bricklink cannot help you here. If it was paid outside of Bricklink, the refund
has to be done via PayPal and not via Bricklink. Even if it was done via onsite
payment, Bricklink would not be able to refund you, it would still need to be
initiated by the seller.

How do you know that the seller's account has been debited?

This is what he told me.

Anyway, I've explained the situation and get an actual refund through paypal.

Regards.

Hi all,
I have just set up a new store with the purpose of selling my large collection
of sets
as I am moving abroad and downsizing.
Does anyone have any advice on how to do this? I would prefer to sell groups
of sets rather than individually?
Thanks in advance
Dean

Hello! You mean multiple different types of sets?
Or multiple sets of the same one?

I have never seen a function on this site that enables a bulk buy. Perhaps one
of the more experienced Bricklinkers can verify. This site is geared towards
individual entries, but for the most part a lot of customers tend to maximize
shipping costs by ordering multiple items from one store.

If you are looking for someone to buy part or whole of your collection, I highly
recommend local marketplace on socual media or Ebay.

Happy selling!

I am astonished that people could think they would never fall for any type of
scam, especially those that don’t even operate a store here. Most people are
vigilant, but being constantly on guard leads to fatigue. Bad actors only have
to be successful ONCE. It costs them next to nothing to make thousands upon
thousands of attempts, and they will catch you the one time your guard slips
a little. But we have to be successful against EVERY attempt they make and it
costs us of time and energy to do that.

It’s easy to blame the victim until you become one. A major part of being vigilant
is being humble enough to recognize that you too could become a victim.

Selling entire store for 50% off

Sales

Looking to sell my entire store for 50% of original price (always first page
and mostly lowest in EU) all at once.

Since my store is open it can happen that someone buys something, but if you're
interested in buying everything all at once just send me a message and I will
close the shop for you to look privately.

My store inventory total value (Original Price): EUR 3,678.15 (at the moment)

I'm looking voor €1800 excluding shipping or paypal fees, open for offers.
Preferable NL based, but I have no problem shipping within EU.

Hi there

is it possible to search a part in my own collection ? (to know if I own it or
not)

Thanks

Have a nice day

Hi, if you use the search box at the top of the page, the drop down box on the
left that usually has All items shown as a default, if you click the down arrow
and second from the bottom it says store inventory, you can search your own inventory
using a part number.

Hope that helps

Greetings all,

The spammer emails continue and are now a daily basis. See attached image as

@BrickLink: can you please put a banner on the landing page to at least warn
users of this issue.

I'm curious though, is this being done to any/all users of BL or is this
subjective to sellers.

After reading about these, I checked my spam folder and Google has flagged them
all as spam and removed them from the inbox.

There maybe things I (we) don't care for about Google but they do an excellent
job of screening junk e-mail.
