Comments from Submitter:
I don’t know how this works but if you think about it, a undetermined type can’t be a alternate item.
|
This is not how it works. 
|
May I ask how it works? I’m a little confused about undetermined types as alternate
items.

You can learn a lot from reading the change logs:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChangeItem.asp?itemType=S&itemNo=70400-1&viewDate=Y&viewStatus=1
Note the dates things were changed and any relevant dates on the parts. You will
find that this part was not undetermined when it was added to the set inventory.
It needs to be resolved just like any other newly undetermined entry.

Where did you get this 2 month "rule"?

After 6 months of not getting my money back for a refused international package.
(shipping was 50% higher than quoted, so I sent the package back)
|
You would have known the shipping charges when you paid. Are you talking about
customs fees or taxes? Was there a VAT form attached to your parcel?
| |
The seller (Oasis in South Carolina) refused to refund my money until the package
came back to him. There is no detailed tracking on return packages, but it shows
that it came into the USA on October 28th.
He told me that it could take 6 months for it to come back. Since it is almost
6 months, I want to check back with him.

All of my prior orders are gone and so are my old messages.
|
BrickLink purges all non-problem orders after 6 months.
| |
I was able to download the order (without much details, but it had the prices).
|
You would have received a detailed invoice when you made your purchase. Find
it in your email account.
| |
Is there a way to get back my messages? Or order? I did not delete these things.
|
No, but BrickLink messages should also be sent to your email. Have a look!
Unless your seller failed to attach the VAT receipt to your order, whatever charges
that occurred were likely not their fault. However, 6 months is a ridiculous
time frame and they should have responded to you by now with either a refund
or a resolution you could both agree to.
Good luck,

| | I was going through my stock of 1x5 liftarms, and stumbled upon a color I have

It dies have the typical mold markings in the small openings (part number etc).
Any thoughts?

Some of the Light Bluish Grays are fading to an odd paler color. (Whether still

Just FYI, this set was on display from when it was first inventoried. I just
took it apart and most of the Reddish Brown and Dark Brown splintered and cracked.
The majority of the Light Bluish Gray has also turned the odd yellowish shade.
(Not sun damaged.)

It hasn't been worth shipping to Europe the past decade.
Shipping USPS International is outrageously expensive.
If you ship using Ascendia, the shipping is a bit cheaper, but it is going through
third party, so riskier.
Then Europeans whine about VAT even though they voted for welfare states, so
they want you to lie on customs form, which is a federal crime.

That's quite a stereotype and says more about you than any quantity of Europeans.
In all my time here as a seller, I've had only 2 customers ask for a slightly

Two right now (today). UK and Belgium.
Tracked, arrived but either refused or just lying. Cannot tell yet but I have

I suspect it was designed to represent what they wanted 'bricklink' to

What it doesn't do is represent what we actually are: complicated, a mash-up

It can be purchased in any LEGO store or reseller. But I still see that every

This it totally nuts imo.
I'm thinking of parting out 10 sets containing this part and pricing them
at around 50 cents to change the price guide which will force future sellers
of this item to sell this item cheaper.
To the sellers: do you also experience these kinds of crazy things?

You really think sellers are checking the pricing and availability of every item
in a part out? They set it 'just below the 6 months average' and click
the button.
By the way, if everyone keeps doing that, the prices will all hit bottom. Like
every book on amazon costing $.99

correct proportions of a brick. It bothers me literally every time I see it.

| Hello,
In my honest opinion, your letter is a bit wordy and goes well past the fundamentals
that a new user would need to be exposed to. Some users may appreciate the information,
some users may wonder why they need to read a wall of text to just order some
LEGO.
Also, it's BrickLink, not Bricklink.
Thanks,
~Jen
In Feedback, Ziegelmeister writes:
| | As we all know, getting buyers to reply to messages and/or leave feedback can
be brutal. I don't know if it's just me but my feedback response rate
fell off a cliff around early February. 83 orders and just 35 feedbacks which
drops well below the 60% rate most of us have.
I've had a few buyers with very high feedback numbers but they have left
___ZERO___ for other users. Those people are to far gone, so I decided to try
to tackle the problem with the new users.
I tend to get a lot of buyers with very low scores, so when I recently had a
few zero feedback users place orders, I decided to try something proactive and
drafted up this letter which was included in their package. Of the two I sent
it to so far, both followed the instructions. One even went back and added feedback
for other orders they placed. I sent my third one out today which is what prompted
me to go double check on the other two users.
And I know, I know, "don't worry about your feedback number more than
your feedback rating", but there are people out who see that number first
and assume that with experience comes better service and fewer hassles. It's
also just a few extra keystrokes of extra work to help improve the community
for everyone IMO.

You should not take another submitter's image, edit it, and upload it yourself.
No matter how much it needs editing. If this were possible, there would be no
dust or lint on any image on BrickLink because I would fix it.
You are only allowed free use of the images from LEGO.

Yes. This seems to be the only way to defend against this unfortunate seller
practice.
Also, if sellers want to just refund parts without telling you, and they don't
advertise this practice in their terms, they ought to refund your shipping as
well so you can shop elsewhere.

I used the building instructions from LEGO. The BI have the 366501.
Also when you look at the picture of the build set, you can see the 366501 part.

Sorry, I failed to specify that I was referencing the 7 digit code for the instructions.
I checked on LEGO.com and it looks like that version is 6073915. So, it seems
these parts would need to be considered as Alternates.

I have always liked the option to use assemblies where it makes sense to do so.
One example is where a specific tire and wheel combo only exists as one exact

After spending time identifying wheels and tires, it can save you a ton of headaches
in the future if you LABEL THEM with the part numbers.

Take photos of what you send out. That way you know if you made a mistake and

Its great because when printed on a standard printer page you can just lay the

I highly recommend this chart for every person identifying tires.

For the first time, a seller has blocked me from buying, and I'm wondering
if I did something against the rules. I had a cart ready to check out, and sent

below).
When I click back on the store cart, I now see the following message "Seller
Refuses Service. This seller does not want to sell to you and has placed you
on their stop list."
I'm really confused, and am wondering if I violated any rules by sending
the message before checking out? I'm just a hobby seller, with no negative
feedback, and am now worried they may leave me some (even though I didn't
even place an order). Should I reach out to them, or just let it go? Looking
for good advice.

I would suggest that is pretty strong indicator that they don't differentiate
variants. You broke no rules, they are just rude. And you can't leave feedback
without a transaction. Time to move on to another shop!

| | Good afternoon everyone,
Quite new with all the catalog requests:
I added three new rare pieces I would like to sell. It's been quite a while
now and nothing has happened.
Is there a way to ask someone kindly to proceed with the upload?
I cannot sell these beautiful cloth patches until someone uploaded the items.
Greetings.

You submitted these less than two weeks ago?
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogPend.asp
Your entries look good, but I would advise a bit more patience. There is a long
list of pending items, the admin do the best they can with the limited time they
have available, and new parts are generally prioritized over older or specialty
items.

| The admins will add an x to a pending number if there is a question about the
submission that they need to run down. That way they can keep approving parts
or minifigs in the series without creating a gap.
Is there a page in the book that specifically shows how this guy is built? Similar
to what you would see in regular LEGO instructions?

| | Hello,
This is regarding my new minifigure submission (njo884x; althought I'm not
the one who added the "x" ).
The minifigure was included in "b24njo02pl". The Polish title and multiple
mentions inside the book suggest a "hunter", although the English publisher
site (https://www.ameet.eu/book/lego-ninjagoempire-warrior/) mentions the following
names:
- "Imperium Warrior" (on the cover)
- "Imperium Hunter" (in the description)
- "Dragon Hunter no 29" (multiple mentions inside the book, can also
be found among book pictures on publisher's site)
Parts wise:
- torso, legs, head and helmet are the same as in njo815 ("Imperium Claw
General" )
- the only difference between this minifigure and njo815 is the lack of "Black
Minifigure Armor Shoulder Pads Spiked with Stud on Back"
- a "Imperium Claw Hunter" (njo817) is already known, but has different
set of torso, legs and helmet
Please advise how to correctly add this minifigure.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Best,

| You are using some terms that don't line up with our Catalog jargon. Can
you please post a screenshot or a url of what you are trying to accomplish? I
don't see anything different with this torso from any other.

a color ID for it. The following is an example that I came across whilst searching
for a torso:
If I try to add this with the "Add catalog image" macro, it cannot post
it without the color ID.
The Preview button complains that there is no color ID, but that's not an
issue, as it is recognized for the part ID that it is.
I can, however, manually add it without a color ID, although this is not how
it works for most other parts.
I'm unsure if this is a technical issue, if this post belongs elsewhere,
please move it, although I don't want duplicates of a known issue to be posted,
either.
Cheers ...

I had one buyer, I told him about the BL message thing, so he started abusing
me by email, and appearing "reasonable" by BL message.

To keep a record of these messages, reply using the BL system and copy/paste
their message in your reply. It is not perfect, but at least that way their correspondence
gets attached to the order in question (or at least to their account).
Niek.

I do this as well. It's important to have all communication attached to the
order itself.

My parts are all sorted by type, and it'll be easier that way to 'rebuild'
sets.

Do you mean the default Set Inventory list? There's a drop-down menu for
Sort Items By: right at the top.

Yup, it's in the inventory.

No, the rules for Used sets are specific:

It's becoming a bit of a chore to keep them clean and dust free of dust.
More sets are in the planning stage for later on down the road.
Anyone have any experience cleaning lego with something like a make-up brush?

I use this brush to dust Lego(not that I ever remember to)

I feel sorry for your LEGO. Doesn't that leave a ton of scratches??

It depends on the brush. A wide cheek brush is not going to work. Built LEGO
has too many nooks and crannies. I use a soft synthetic acrylic paintbrush from
the art store. It's kinda pricey ($10-15) but leaves no scratches.

order on Bricklink (Lego 75192 - Millennium Falcon), and unfortunately, an issue
arose. It appears that the seller's profile (https://store.bricklink.com/picasso2257?p=picasso2257#/terms)
has been compromised, and he is unable to contact me through Bricklink. He states
that he no longer has access to Bricklink and has not received any payment. Coincidentally,
the store was closed this morning, and its location has been relocated from France

Upon discovering this, I promptly contacted PayPal and submitted a refund request.
Additionally, I reached out to my bank to block the payment, as one half of it
has been made using PayPal balance, while the other half had been processed through
my credit card, and the payment was not completed. Now, I would like to inquire
about the likelihood of receiving a refund. I am aware that if the seller fails
to ship the package, I can fill out a Non-Shipping Seller form. However, how
optimistic should I be about getting my money back?
Thank you, everyone, for your assistance.

Sigh... a low feedback buyer's account, not used in ages and then with just
one recent feedback for selling. That's a recipe for fraud if ever I saw
one!

I know, but honestly I thought that Bricklink was free of any scams... evidently
I was wrong. Do you think I can manage to get my money back?

BrickLink is an open marketplace. You need to look out for yourself! Good thing
you used Paypal.
Read feedback. Read terms. If an offer is too good to be true, it is usually
too good to be true. Don't buy rare or expensive items from sellers with
no experience.
