Here is my suggestion for superlots and how to value the items in a superlot.

Hopefully what I am suggesting makes sense and I explain my suggestion so that
it is understood.

Instead of having the seller price each item in a superlot instead have the seller
set the price for the entire superlot and then BrickLink will assign the price
of each item based on the average selling price of the item at the time the superlot
is listed.

If the seller wants to change the price of the superlot either change the individual
part prices prorata to their original listed price or reprice the items in the
superlot based on the then current average selling price.

I have prepared an example based on a few price points for a superlot. In the
example I have three different price points for the superlot, one close to average
price, one below and one above. The selling price per item changes relative
to the price of the superlot.

This will prevent the possibility of price manipulation for individual items
(selling 9 items for 0.01 and selling the 10th item for 30.00)

I think it makes sense for the seller to price only the superlot instead of individual
pieces as they are likely selling a build, set, or collectible series and
they would like to sell everything for a specific value they aren't thinking
that they want to sell "part 1" for 3.00 and "part 2" for 0.10, they are thinking
"I would like to sell my build for 30.00".

Anyway, I'm sure I lot of people will not like this thought/suggestion, but
that is my suggestion.

Fix coupon and instant checkout integration.

When trying to place an order and redeem a coupon for more than the dollar amount
of the order there are a couple of problems.

1. You still have to choose a payment method even though you owe $0. PayPal onsite
cannot be chosen or there will be an error because you owe $0

2. If I choose PayPal (Offsite) it still sends me an invoice with a negative
amount, because the coupon was more than the order.

3. You cannot choose to save the rest of the coupon, instead it is redeemed to
the negative balance you owe.

Please fix these.

Can we plz have a function for testing our settings.

I have been setting my shipping and have to ask in the forum if i did it correct!

Had the same with the quote function!

Of course there is always a helpfull person but still.

There are two options,

1 a button for testing that shows the result in a screen.
2 the possibility to step further wenn you place an order in your own shop, it
can still be set that you cant make the order final.
Now you cant even go to checkout!

Thx for looking into this,

Text colour for payment status 'Clearing'

I'd like to propose that the 'Clearing' payment status text colour
be changed to #FF4500 (same as 'Processing' order status colour) to make
it clearly distinguishable from the 'Received' payment status?

This would be particularly useful when Paypal Echeques are received.

Add Cond,Item# to Sort Order received items

In My Order Settings - Order Details Settings, it would be useful to be able
to sort order received items by:

Condition, Item No, Color name

This would make pulling an order a lot easier in our case as inventory is separated
by condition and then organized by item number.

Show % of positive feedback in item

Instead or addition to showing the colored brick, Show the percent of positive
feedback in the item listing so I don't have to go to the store and look
at is there.

Here is an example, my numbers are random and not the persons actual feedback.
I even put the feedback that is less than 100% in red as a warning.

Which by the way, I don't understand the point of the colored brick, yes
I understand it relates to the amount of feedback but I can see that one persons
feedback is large and one is smaller.

Thanks,
Zack

Use short names for payment methods

I would like to use display the payment method on my orders page, however the
name is just simply too long.

Can we use short names for the payment method. Currently for example Stripe
is displayed as "Credit/Debit (Powered by Stripe)". Can it simply be called "Stripe".

It would be even better if we had to option to display the micro tag number,
example
27 = PayPal Onsite
26 = Stripe

Thank you,
Cob

Not happy with instant checkout GUI at all

Instant checkout is great and I am glad we have it now. However, the interface
side of things is still a drama for me. Sometimes someone helps me out sorting
orders, and I found that I'm unable to explain which orders need to be sorted,
since the new system.

"Sort all order that are 'pending' and updated and do not have the grand
total in bold, AND the ones that are 'ready' ONLY when the grand total
IS bold, AND the ones that are 'paid', unless they have already been
sorted or are being sorted'

I have to explain it over and over and we keep ending up with double sorted orders
sometime. Things used to be easy. pending = sort. updated = sort. ready = sorted.

I can compensate some of it by manually changing the status of the orders to
make it clearer what's to be done, yes, that solves part of it. It is just
that it is a bit more mistake-prone than the old system and I have to frown a
little harder to see what's up with the shop than I used to. The inconvenience
is not massive but it is one that persists day after day, and it is an unnecessary
one. Therefore, I think something should change.

I wish that either option of these would be implemented:

1. Do not auto change the status of orders to "ready" when instant checkout is
being used. Let sellers use this to indicate the order really IS ready. All received
orders are always "pending". (And while we're at it, better yet: Do not send
invoices automatically. The majority of webstores I know do not do this. BO also
does not do this. Please let me make my invoices manually. The ones Bricklink
generates are a redundant mix of payment instruction and order confirmation,
both of which already exist)

2. Add a check or other object to indicate SORT and SORTED. How about a red square
meaning SORT that appears by default when the order is placed (paid or not paid),
green when you tap it once meaning SORTED, and orange when tapped again meaning
DO NOT SORT for whatever reason.

I am aware you can split payment and order status. However, my screen is already
too wide as it is, and it involves alot more clicking. Also, I do not want another
status in the list. Just some way purely for the seller's side to have clear
administration about their tasks.
