Can we please remove the 'Prefer My Bricklink Classic?' (and the corresponding
one from the old screen) from the top of the 'My Bricklink' page.

Yes, please remove "View My New BL" from the top of the 'My Bricklink'page.

It takes up loads of screen real estate and would be as a tick box on a display
settings option.

I think after it being there a year most people will have chosen which style
they prefer.

This is a fairly bad marketing idea for shops that probably don't work out
in the shops favour. I know a majority of my browsing has ended up in me taking
my business and money to another shop. Where I am either buying from someone
without a min buy, or selecting other items I actually want to hit that minimum
purchase amount. So my suggestion is to add a donation field/possibility to finish
passing the required purchase line.

I have only made 3 purchases since I joined but these 3 people are profiting
by shop deterrence over the min buy. One of which was a difference of 3 cents
to the min buy vs. paying 1 cent more for the same thing because it didn't
have one.

This hasn't been implemented yet because having a store minimum doesn't
have to be intended for the money, it's often there to save time for not
having to pick small orders.

Good morning all,

Is there a way to send photos via the contact option? I have a potential buyer
interested in a certain minifigure and wants photos. I'm happy to oblige,
but can't figure out how to send photos. I dont have the email address so
I can't send then that way. I tried using the Help section. But was unsuccessful.
any help is appreciated.

Brian

Re: Warning to seller for inconsistent config

Hello,

After some time as a buyer, I just opened my store on BrickLink.

At first I was only shipping domestic so I configured domestic shipping method
and checked only the domestic checkbox for PayPal payments.

I am now opening to international sales, so I configured international shipping
methods, but I had forgotten about the international checkbox for PayPal and
did not check it.

I got messages from potential buyers saying they could not checkout because I
had not configured a payment method.

I do not understand how enabling international shipping without international
payment can make sense, so I would assume that anyone who did this made a mistake.

My suggestion is to have BrickLink check for this inconsistent configuration
and at least warn sellers about it, or maybe even prevent it from happening.

Thanks
Alex

BrickLink can't know the intention of the seller for certain configurations.
It's the sellers responsibility to make sure that the settings are correct.
There should be a proper way to test settings though.
