Seems to me anyway, that simply restricting zero feedback members the use of
links in the forum, would immediately eliminate most current spam posts and deter
future ones. Haven’t been looking that close at these posts, but from what I’ve
seen, it’s presenting links they have as a common purpose or motivation. Removing
motivation is often a subtle yet effective tack in life.
Could be that it’s not all that simple, technically to implement. I don’t know,
but if doable, why not? Personally don't find the spam posts all that bothersome.
Many do though, and if there's an easy fix to tidy things up a bit...

Hmm, to put these arches on the ‘manor’ part, you need other small parts that
are not in the inventory: a 1x2 brick, 2x 1x1 plates and 2x (1 or 2)x3 plates….
You could do without the (1 or 2)x3 plates with the Extra 1x2 and 2x2….
And you can get one 2x3 if you can use the (1 and 2)x10 plates instead of the
(1x2)x8 ones on the walkway… but it doesn’t seem like they did that on the pic.
A head-scatcher….

An O ring is Not a lego part, it is a sealing ring used in many mechanical applications.

Yes, to be clear a BrickLink seller can't dropship since BL sellers can only
list what they actually have in inventory (maybe an exception can be made for
inventory mistakes, etc.). But there isn't anything stopping people from
listing on e.g., eBay, and then dropshipping from BL.

You can't list items you don't own, but that is in the sellers control.
1.2.8 Exact quantity: The quantity of the item that you are listing for sale
must not be greater than the quantity you have physical possession of in the
country in which your BrickLink store is registered. Drop shipping is not permitted.
The only exception to this is a custom fan magazine that has to be pre-ordered
and the Buyer is made aware of this in the item description.

How much data space would it take to have two catalogs? One for detailed data
and one for generalized marketplace?
|
The problem isn’t space, it’s consistency and workload.
Basically, you’re doubling the workload.
If you make a change in one of the catalogues, should it be echoed on the other
one? To which extent? Can that be automatized?
In the software world, that’s called a fork (external / by another team) or a
branch (internal / by the same team).
We have tools and procedures to follow and “port” (transfer, apply) changes between
branches / versions / forks (‘diffs’ and ‘patches’ and ‘version control system’
(git, bitkeeper, mercurial…)).
And those tools are good and ‘smart.’ They can work around other changes and
differences that shouldn’t change (and (good) devs are lazy: everything that
can be automatized is automatized).
But we ALWAYS need to check the changes. The changes may apply without a hitch…
but they may break the program because they contradict an older change. That
can also be automatized, to some extent. But it’s work again and you can never
predict everything so you always need to check.
Duplicating a database and the changes on the database can be automitized in
the same way: changes are just instructions, like a program. So the same porting
solutions & problems apply: Should that change be applied? Can it be applied?
Should another change be applied instead? And you always need to check, check,
check.
Also, you first need to record these instructions. AFAIK, BrickLink’s changelogs
aren’t complete / sufficient.
TL;DR: It’s the same as the work done by Rebrickable: another catalogue, with
conversion tables, with changes to follow / apply or not, with errors or misses…,
and with a full team to manage it.
It could be a bit simpler and you could save a bit by keeping it inside BrickLink,
but that won’t remove most of the work needed.
Another possibility is to handle that in only one “catalogue,” with two (or more!)
different ways to present its info. The work would be done only once, in the
more detailed catalogue, and there would be mechanisms to hide the details to
the users. But that’s the same as the “umbrella part” solution: you need to
change the whole structure of the database and the way the site works. That
can’t be patched onto what exists now (which is already patched enough with spaghetti
and sauce as it is).

Hi,
To part out a set: hover over the white, heart-shaped “Want” icon and click “Part
Out”: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/wanted/partout.page
But you can’t “apply” a Wanted List (or an inventory) to another one on BrickLink,
to remove the parts you already have. You need to use third-party tools, like
BrickStore (application) or Rebrickable (website).

I don't think it is possible to send money by email.

In Canada we have an email transfer service through our banks where we can send
money, it is very handy but adds another dimension for potential scams
Have an epic day!

Interac eTransfer doesn't send money via email. It uses the wire transfer
system just like all other payment systems. It's no different than BillPay
in the U.S. or IBAN in Europe, PayPal, Zelle, etc. It just uses the email/phone

"NEW" in BL??? Than bleached bec. of sunlight/UV-light and dusty...but
UNPLAYED??!!
What I mean is, BL`s def. of "NEW" is not excact,
if they clearly say: new def. from Jan.1st, 2025
never assembled
direct from set to bag
never displayed
unplayed/untouched but only for sorting and than FOR SALE (not for private enjoyment)

so easy to say, dear seller, you sent fig with arm-swing scratced torso, declared

Bricklink says this
“New Minifigures - Minifigures are brand new, taken directly from new sets or
purchased as new in another form such as accessory packs or Pick A Brick and
have been handled only for sorting. Minifigures may be listed as new either assembled
or unassembled.”
So no, if it’s displayed in your collection it is not new but if you bag each
one up and store them unused for any purpose and then list it then it’s new.
Im assuming something is lost in translation as I never sent you any minifigures
let alone “ dear seller, you sent fig with arm-swing scratced torso, declared
"new"”

Yes, that`s my opinion, too!

Yes.
| At the moment you have 18938 and 88738 as alternate numbers for the same part,
and 48168 as a mold variant. How anyone could have entered a 60 tooth gear as

From what I can see the mold variant link should be removed - Z56 and Z60 are
different.
The alternate number link should also be removed, and the descriptions of the

Updated is normal, because the buyer "updated" the order when adding
a 2nd batch.
And anyway, Updated isn't a "closing" status unlike: Paid, Packed,
Shipped, Received or Completed (of course).
Again, I've never seen a glitch from BrickLink on adding to an order. There's
some logical reason.
It could also be due to some limitation in weight, size, min, max or such in
your available Shipping Methods?

| Hi -
There's nothing to do to allow an open order.
ANY shipping method that doesn't involve instant payment or any order which
isn't paid leaves by default the order opened (if the seller doesn't
change the status to Paid, Packed)...
There's no glitch I'm aware of.
But this may happen if there's a change of tax, like VAT.
If a buyer outside UK places an order for less than 150€, VAT will be charged
to him.
If he adds more and the order is now over 150€ then the first order may be automatically
"closed" because the VAT treatment would be different.
I'm not 100% sure of this, but I guess it could be the problem.
In your case, no, you can't "merge" or add to any order (luckily
for buyers).
If buyer didn't pay anything and it's not complicated, maybe cancel 1
or both orders and ask the buyer to place a first batch of MORE than 150€? After
this, he can leave and add to the order as long as he wishes.
Please be sure buyer's aware he'll have to pay for VAT (around 20% in
EU) - as some may not be aware and could refuse the parcel delivery - return
being at your cost

| Wondering if anyone can help me to setup or check my option for Open Orders please.
I'm a new seller, and believe I've setup the option for buyers to place
an Open Order. I did this from a shared shipping option I copied.
I have a buyer (who is very patient!) who has created an open order. He added
some parts which showed as Batch 1. He added more parts which appeared in the
same Order number as Batch 2. So far so good.
At this stage the Order Status changed to "Updated". I assume this was
done automatically.
The buyer then added more parts, but they didn't appear in that open order.
Instead a whole new order number was created. The status of that new order
is "Pending".
So I'm not sure if this is some strange glitch that hasn't added another
batch to the already open order, or if this is something I haven't setup
correctly. The Buyer would now like to complete his order(s). What do I/we
do?
1: Is there a way to cancel the 2nd order and fix some setting so that when
he re-adds the part it is added to the original order.
2: Do I just send two invoices for the two orders with a total value that covers
the shipping as a single package?
Grateful for any advice, thanks.

Hi,
That’s a strange one indeed. The “Extra” section is for parts that are found
in a sealed box but are not needed for any of the builds seen in the instructions
or on the box.
I had that set when I was a kid… I don’t remember 3 unused arches 🤔

Hi,
That’s a strange one indeed. The “Extra” section is for parts that are found
in a sealed box but are not needed for any of the builds seen in the instructions
or on the box.
I had that set when I was a kid… I don’t remember 3 unused arches 🤔

| Hello all! How much would you pay someone to sort a 12 gallon tub of Lego?
I buy Lego at about $2 - $4 a pound if that helps
|
How would you want it sorted by color or category or size?
|
Categories.
We sort into 19 different categories. The same ones that the Great Brick Lab
(GBL) uses to sort their Lego. I’ll post a link to the sorting sheet later.
|
Here's the link to the sorting sheet.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1809BBSWvmC6HrqpWcbQa-YP6alDrJOIe/view
They share it in the description for this video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSr8117iiIQ&t=7s
|
I printed it out and sort 1 pound of Lego into the category’s and it took around
50 minutes so I’m think maybe $2 a pound. But maybe state that you have to finish
sorting the entire bin to get paid. I would also pull out category #16 just as
a per caution. Also it should not be snowing this time of year
|
I'm cackling, thank you XD
|
No problem

There it is! Finally a foodie I can relate to here...
Italian BMT; no lettuce, heavy tomatoes, heavy onions, vinegar on the meat side

That sounds good! I might try it the next time I go!
My personal favorite is:
Regular white bread with pepper jack cheese and steak (also toasted). Along with
lettuce, tomato, onions, mayo, and a sweet onion sauce. It makes for the perfect

| I sent them the actual invoice and removed their request to cancel (they had
provided the reason that the buyer and seller had mutually agreed to cancel).
If they communicate with me and really want to cancel then maybe it was all a
misunderstanding. If they don't communicate then I will wait a file a NPB
and see where that goes. Then I can provide feedback that is accurate.

There are many ways to get e-mail addresses, specific ones or in bulk lists.
Ex: a buyer 3 years ago could have his PC infected by a trojan or a virus which
will parse all his local e-mails and send the addresses From/To etc.
Or another site you registered which had its database hacked.
Or often, while simply Googling the web.
And zillion other ways, most of them not being related to BrickLink.

I'm sure if I was "in Hiroshima when it happens" I would NOT ask
you to represent the bomber.
Something's doesn't seem to be coherent in what you wrote.
I'm also pretty sure LEGO isn't interested / doesn't allow
representations of actual war weapons and sceneries.
The concept of promoting peace while representing mass destruction objects is
a VERY complex approach, and I think you're far from this comprehension /
distance which would be required.
I'm 100% sure I'm NOT interested in this "project".

It's really straightforward
BrickLink will automatically collect the UK VAT (under GBP135).
You will receive an e-mail with the VAT receipt, and can download the PDF from
the order page if not recevied.
Print it and attach it in a transparent document pocket outside.
Fill a normal CN22 or CN23 form.
|
This. Specifically for UK - this is enough. Your PayPal payment will have a 'Partner
Fee' section for this, which will be forwarded to BL's PP account immediately.
You will have to attach a VAT invoice to the outside of the package - you will
see it on the order page + will receive an email from BL with a .pdf
No need to attach anything electronically to your shipping label.

Thank you, guys!
I'll take both of your inputs as empirical and as an affirmation of the updated
help page. Very helpful. Thanks again

Instructions are produced long before the actual parts in the set, so instructions
are not considered a reliable source for inventories by BrickLink.
Unless this can be confirmed by a sealed set, BrickLink can't accept this

This request will therefore be rejected.

I am not sure a "Parts list" exists for just this build. You would have
to look at instructions for this build and make a parts list yourself.
Using the inventory for this set, the instructions, and a wanted list, you can
add the parts for each step to the wanted list by selecting them from the inventory
of the set. You can then download your wanted list, I believe, though I do not
know how as I have never done it before. Someone here could help with that aspect
though.
