|
| Hello,
I bought 2 sets from a store and one of them was incomplete (it was supossed
to be complete). I've written the seller with a list of the missing pieces,
my email was read but I have no answer, it's been more than two weeks since
I send the email.
What should I do?

Op : Other markings underneath will usually be part number / mould number and
position in mould / copyright / pat pending / pending Pat / both the previous

However, better to ask if unsure.

I have bought some lego parts, but i believe they might be fake.
The bricks do have 'lego' written on the top of the studs, but on the
back side of the brick there are no 4 or 5 digit part number. Anyone can tell,
if these are real lego (maybe older parts only had the logo)?

Real. If it has the lego lego it’s real. Some parts don’t have the part number
and some don’t have the logo and some have neither but if it has the logo it’s
real

And most are ZERO feedback buyers that I guess are new to Bricklink, sky is aways
falling in this forum even with all the millions of successful transactions.
Like they say, negative views get the attention...

Along with

Which also isn’t true as they are 100% responsible

2550 feedback on 5825 orders is a very low feedback percentage, 44%.
My store has 1763 orders with 1350 feedback, that is 77% of buyers who left me
positive feedback. I have 0% negatives and 0% neutrals.
This store has serious problems that they need to address.

This means that you have had 104 orders where something was wrong and you got
neutral or negative feedback.
So I'm not surprised, but of course I don't know the details. As a buyer
I would hesitate to buy from a shop that has less than 99% positive feedback.

What was it you ordered, parts, sets, or a combination ?
If it was sets only, and in original boxes, the shipping might well have been
high. Cost of order does not have a direct relationship to cost of shipping,
especially when it involves international shipping.

Did you follow this and request the cancellation, or did you just message the
seller asking them to cancel it?
If you have the NPB completed against you, then you can try asking for it to
be removed as you thought the postage was too much. The NPB won't matter
unless you make a habit of placing orders and not paying for them. However, you
might get negative feedback for not paying for this order and would not be able
to leave feedback for the seller.
In the future, ask about shipping costs before placing the order if they are
not calculated by instant checkout or detailed in the seller terms. Shipping
large or heavy boxes internationally with tracking can be expensive.

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!

Maybe list the sets individually and add a text to the description 'X% discount
when ordering 2 sets or more, y% discount when ordering 5 sets or more'

Sounds pretty shady to me.
So the seller can't work with the buyers requests.. but can immediately file
an NPB?

After 7 days you could have opened a NRS.
Although you've got the right to to cancel, the seller opened the NPB because
he wants to be protected against any feedback.
You can go to the NPB page and click option NPx "accept penalty and cancel
order".
One strike won't hurt your buyers status.
Or contact the Helpdesk if you don't want to accept the penalty:

Some chars are transcoded up to 6 chars...
So, avoid accents éàèöù and symbols like / \ or inferior superior, etc.
And leave you room, like better count on 240 than 255.
Make tests, and avoid the more non-alphanumeric ones.

I wish they were still there. That amount of data would not take that much space
and space is pretty cheap. I wish they would at least keep 2-3 years worth of
the order details. I would also like options to see the pricing history of items
longer than 6 months, especially for rare items.
