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
number in place of the routing and account numbers.

Die endlose Geschichte der Diskussion über NEU oder GEBRAUCHT muss doch endlich
mal zu einem Ende kommen!
Selbstverständlich beschwört jeder Verkäufer
sofort aus der OVP entnommen
vorsichtig den Helm aufgesteckt
den Kopf auf den Torso
Beine ran
und rauf auf die Baseplatte.

Diese Schritte verursachen UNBESTREITBAR Gebrauchspuren, sein es Kratzer am Kopfdruck
und Hals, oder "arm swing scratches" seitlich des Torsos, leichte Quetschungen
an der Unterseite des Torsos und natürlich unübersehbare Beschädigung der Unterseite
der Beine durch Aufsetzen der Figur auf die Baseplatte.

Dann wird die Figur ausgestellt, staubt ein, bleicht aus und....
wird dann nach (X-Tagen/Wochen/Monaten/Jahren) als NEU angeboten!

Auf die Reklamation kommt dann die Antwort: UNPLAYED CONDITION = NEW!

Deshalb sind wir in unserem kleinen Laden dazu übergegangen, "NEVER ASSEMBLED/BRANDNEW"
hinzu zu fügen.
Vielleicht sollte dieser kleine Zusatz hier bei BL eingeführt werde...

Wie steht die Community dazu?

Wir haben einige Figuren aus Büchern usw. die bereits von LEGO zusammengebaut
kommen.
Sind diese dann neu oder gebraucht?

Bei dieser Frage wird es wohl nie 100% Einigkeit geben.

As per bricklink terms those are still new so long as they came they that and
they havnt been used for anything other then sorting/listing

OK,
what is "anything other than"

...displayed in your private, dark, non-smoky,...bla-bla...collection over 1
day, 1 month or ten years???
...displayed inside your local store for sale...than after time(s) not sold...offer
"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
"new" = sorry is not.

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!
(We both didn`t dealed before, no reason to complain anything with you)
Thank you for your help, I never seen a def. like this here at BL, before...Kind
regards, Norilyn.Berlin

Glad I could help!

So, Catalog admins, will this get updated?

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
mold variant of a 56 tooth gear is a question for another day...

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
part should be updated to reflect the bevel teeth on one of them.

Or does all this fall in your recent program of dumbing down the database...

That had nothing to do with the catalog administrators.

Might it be because the status was set to Updated or is that normal?

But the easiest explanation is that the buyer simply forgot to use "Leave
opened" during the checkout of the second batch, and used something like
"Royal mail" which then waits for its payment onsite?

What's the current shipping method for the 1st order?

was thinking the same thing, perhaps the buyer chose a different shipping option
which then prevented it from combining

Thanks for the input and explaining Open orders a little better.
The orders were from a UK buyer to my UK store and for a few low value items
well below £150 so I don’t believe it to be VAT related.

As the seller I didn’t change the status at all. I’m confused and the buyer is
confused why when the buyer added the 3rd batch it didn’t go into the open order
but created a new order.

Might it be because the status was set to Updated or is that normal?

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.
