That's a typical 2000 text 
Since somewhere later than 2000, I don't have to tell: "I've received
the order, that's unbelievable!!!"
And then after opening the parcel: "Wow, it contains what I paid for!".
Buyer shouldn't HAVE to do this.

We are not Amazon, that’s why buyers are so lazy now.

1) Fix the Help page(s).

Please do
| | 2) Disallow the seller to change to Received or Completed.
|
Why?
Other that the incompetent buyers who are to lazy to do it them selfs I see no
problem.
I like to be able to know that my customers have received their orders.

There are fairly common scenarios in which a seller might consider setting a
sent order status to “Completed” Just a few…
1) Buyer leaves positive feedback, but doesn’t change the order status from “Shipped”
|
Just file it.
| | 2) Buyer messages seller, thanking and/or offering praise of service or product
without changing the status.
|
Just file it.
| | 3) Buyer and seller are in communication over an order issue, which concludes
with the buyer expressing to the seller, their complete satisfaction with the
transaction. Here, the seller might not wish to task the already tasked buyer
further, by asking them to change the status and rather takes care it themself.
|
Just file it.
| |
There are a good many LEGO fans that simply don’t know, don’t care, or don’t
care to know about order status 'duties’ and just wanna buy LEGO, that’s
it. Which is fine. The changing of order status by the seller simply helps a
vendor clean things up a bit, to stay organized. I does for me anyway.
|
The only order duty a buyer has is to pay. After that is the seller shipping
it and nothing else, as a commerce platform there is no further need to
do anything else.

What part of this explicit statement of mine...
“There are a good many LEGO fans that simply don’t know, don’t care, or
don’t care to know about order status 'duties’ and just wanna buy LEGO, that’s
it. Which is fine”
... does not align with the sentiment of your reply, or are you just repeating
back in argumentative form, what’s been expressed? The latter does not advance
discussion
My attitude is relatively the same as yours and Milissa's, never really cared
if my buyers used the status change, not as much as is occasionally expressed
in forum by others. Just rather keep the seller ability in place, is all.
As to order status ‘duties’ and importance: None "need" as you
say, fulfill those. But it is a significant form of communications within a transaction,
helpful to both parties. Otherwise, why bother having the ability for both buyer
and seller.
|
And let's substitute the term "duties" with tasks, if that
facilitates better understand: https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1138
|
Opening sentence: "Buyer and Seller each have tasks to complete
during the lifetime of an order"
Under Buyer "Change Order Status to Completed - Change the Order
Status Received when you have received your package (but have not yet verified
its contents or there is a problem). When you verify the contents of your package
and consider the order completed, change the order status Completed"
I've always maintained that I personally don't care if my buyers fulfill
their task, not really, and will gladly handle it when needed.

Thanks to Cory, I reread the Help:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=41&q=status
... which says:
Received - Package has been received but the buyer has not yet verified the contents
on the package.
Completed - Package received, contents verified, the order is completed.
So there is no way the seller could decide that the package is received (as tracking
isn't truth like map isn't territory), and / or the order had been verified
by the buyer, and the buyer to agree the order is completed.
In short, as per BrickLink Help it shouldn't be technically allowed for a
seller to change this.
Implementing this would just, in fact, correspond to the terms of the Help /
guidelines / terms of BrickLink.
Or change the BrickLink Help page.

Yes. There are no legitimate cases for sellers to ever mark an order as completed.
Even if the buyer says they got their order and are happy it still is no reason
then up to the seller to mark it as complete. Those orders would then just fall
into the same category as the other ~50% of orders that would be in the exact
same circumstance aside for the message. And on the flip side letting the seller
mark it as complete can make things much more difficult for buyers. Just like
a buyer can’t change the order status from paid to shipped the seller should
not be allowed to change it from shipped to completed

There are two issues that keep getting voiced here in 'Suggestions':
- Nobody actually uses 'easy buy' because you can't select Country

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

Lol.. I knew when I was watching a video of a 9 year old showing me how to put

I'll certainly post more as the project completes.

BrickLink.
After placing over 20 orders, I receive multiple emails.
One from Bricklink for each purchase.
One from PayPal for each purchase.
Another from BrickLink once the order has shipped.

Each of these emails use various names, or email address, or store names.
It's confusing to identify which email goes with which order.
I often find myself scrolling through emails, looking for a store username, so
I can match it to my BrickLink orders page.
MY SUGGESTION:
Please add the sellers store name (perhaps under the username?) on the buyers
orders page.
This would seriously help with identifying which order goes with which email,

Thank you for the consideration.

My apologies.
I just saw the last bit about seeing the house.
That's really awesome that you asked!
I haven't shown anyone yet, so you're the first
I still need...
1) Extend the back yard.. we had over 4 acres, and I'd like to make the wooded
area.
2) Add a street along the front of the house. We played on that street all the
time.
3) Put the entire model on raised plates that can be joined together in sections.
4) Add the roof, chimney, etc.
5) put all the branches and leaves on the tree, but I wanted to leave that until
last. I have nightmares of the trees breaking apart while trying to redesign
the model onto baseplates.. lol.

Lmao.
How on earth did I miss that option.
I must admit, this site has little hidden options all over the place.
I'll be more attentive before posting next time
That's exactly what I needed.
Thank you so much!

Yes, the emails from seller, Paypal and Bricklink might be confusing. Not sure

Super amazing software. As a cad/cam engineer and software developer myself,
it was a delight!
So, my house has over 8,000 pieces, which resulted in numerous orders through
BrickLink.
After placing over 20 orders, I receive multiple emails.
One from Bricklink for each purchase.
One from PayPal for each purchase.
Another from BrickLink once the order has shipped.
Another from PayPal once the order has shipped.
Each of these emails use various names, or email address, or store names.
It's confusing to identify which email goes with which order.
I often find myself scrolling through emails, looking for a store username, so
I can match it to my BrickLink orders page.
MY SUGGESTION:
Please add the sellers store name (perhaps under the username?) on the buyers
orders page.
This would seriously help with identifying which order goes with which email,
without having to physically click into each order, and find the store name.
Alternatively, if maintaining a single row on the orders page is preferred, could
we maybe add the store name as a "hover" when mousing over the store
username?
Thank you for the consideration.

Look up the piece you want, I'll just randomly pick 4073
Below the image of the piece (and related items) are a few tabs.
Click the left one (items for sale).
Click more options below that on the right.
Click "seller location": USA.
I'm not sure if you can limit that in your settings, but I know you can when
you use the right tab under "price guide". As I store I set that up
so I can quickly go check my prices against everyone else and raise or lower
prices based on other US based stores.

| Hello Developer Team,
prior to my request I want to thank you all for your great website! I use it
really a lot to manage my Lego collection.
My request:
i have a wanted list for each of my uncomplete set. The lists are named in a
certain pattern. There are some generic wanted lists as well which i prefix with
an exclamation mark.
When adding an item I need to select the wanted list. It would be nice to have
a setting for the sort order of the wanted lists in the add dialog. Currently
it seems it is sorted by id, it would also be great by name or other properties.
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Gerald

I agree this really ought to be up there as one of Bricklink's priority fixes

many lost sales opportunities and what overall negative impact this may have

Years ago when you would reply to a Bricklink email from a member, it would already
have the member's email address set up as the one for replies. I have no
idea why they changed it. It's like it's fun for them to break working
features and then just leave them broken.

excuses for BL - they're much too busy - they have so many other things to
do - is not something we as part of the BL community should do. If we pay to

are apologizing for BL for what? Are you being paid to do this? If not, why argue
against making small improvements to the website you use every day?
Actually, please don't answer, you're probably much to busy - I wouldn't

the user could select the starting date (or ending date, perhaps). That way,
I could better understand how many parts are available in different colors *now*
(or in the last 5 years, or last 10 years, etc.). If making it selectable is
