You are a great seller, and buyer. You will come across this eventually. I wouldn't
be the least hesitant to purchase from your store.

As far as a vintage figure is concerned, I try to do as little adjustment as
possible. I think the buyer may have damaged it themselves. I certainly would
not have jumped right to stating you are selling bogus figs.

  New buyer, bought a vintage fig. Sent out no issues when received etc.

Today I get a paypal dispute (wth??) I figure out its a brickink transaction
but have heard nothing here, no communication, nada.

Guy broke a vintage figure trying to pry off the arm, he said it must be fake
because this happens AND there's no logo inside the feet.

I respond with "that color from that era breaks easily, and I've never even
heard about a logo inside the feet (which I just checked some when I got home,
looks like some had it and some don't, which is typical for lego)


I then realize he's left me a neg with the pretty serious accusation of the
fig being fake.

He refuses to send pics of the hips and torso with the logo.

I think he broke it and is just crying fake to get a refund. I told paypal I'd
refund him on its return. The stupid part is if he had just messaged me I probably
would have just refunded it to be nice to a fellow collector.


I'm screwed on the FB right? Sigh

Thanks for checking. I guess someone was just able to slip through. It was a
new buyer so I don't know if that has any bearing on it.

"Minimum Buy not met" message received and "Proceed to checkout" does not work.

Seems to be working for me or I mean not...

I had the "hold order open" option checked for all countries. I think that's
why it showed I shipped everywhere. Thanks for pointing that out. I have sold
to several different countries in the past, but my last shipment to Brazil was
a 3 month headache. I decided to just ship within the US right now.

In Buying, Nubs_Select writes:
  On an unrelated note while I was checking to see if I could recreate the problem
in your store I noticed it says you ship to all countries worldwide but you don't
have a payment option enabled for anywhere except the USA so no one outside of
USA can buy from you

Are we not in a month where sexuality and religion is being rubbed into peoples
faces everywhere you go regardless if you want it or not?

In Off Topic, Erkiles writes:
  a good rule of thumb regarding religion in general is to treat it as your private
parts: don't show it in public unless you're in the correct forum, don't
impose it on others and stop thinking the world is being run by it

It seems you have a lot of things that you view as unacceptable. Didn't you
initialize all this by airing your issues? You essentially blackmailed the guy
into changing his feedback. Now you want to dictate what is okay and not? Please
stop.


In Feedback, CanadaFirst writes:
  We canceled the post and are quite disappointed.

The buyer and us hashed it out and things are entirely resolved and now it would
appear that some users here are putting fake orders in his shop and bullying
him in messages which is entirely unacceptable.

When we made the post it appeared that the situation could not be resolved but
in the end it was. We should all be mature and stop this immediately.

People state they will accept the risk, but they will not. You will have a PayPal
claim as soon as they are impatient. The postage cost is starting to be prohibitive
for a lot of transactions. Safeguard yourself and send it the way that protects
you, and hopefully gets it to your buyer with no issue.

  Hi all,
I have received an order from Italy. The order is for 3 figures for a total of
$39.
Shipping is ridiculous ($16), plus whatever VAT the person must pay.
Here's the question:
The buyer has written three times now, requesting I send the figures in a letter.
I have said no every time and suggested cancelling the order, but now the buyer
is begging (lol), and saying they will assume any risk.
Has anyone ever sent 3 minifigs in a letter?

I was just forced to switch over 2 days ago. I saw the same banner for the past
several months as well, but it just happened. The only charges I have seen so
far are my labels I printed through PayPal. Would the charges be showing up in
another location? I did read most of the user terms and it stated it was "free",
but what people tell you and what they do are totally different now anyway.

  I have been monitoring the PayPal Shipstation issue now for 8 months. That is
when I first started getting banners that PayPal shipping would be changing.
Little by little, people are switching over. I don’t understand how it can operate
that way. I would have expected one company to have a license until a certain
date when another company takes over. But after 8 months I am still just as
I always was. I got an email once that my changeover was imminent, but it was
not imminent. I saw people say here that you had to go sign up, but I didn’t
sign up because it didn’t seem like it was impressing the people who did. Now
I am reading here of people that are being charged. I know I saw banners on PayPal
saying it would stay free and I didn’t have to do anything. Now I am wondering
if all the people who got charged are people who went and signed up.

Is there anyone here who actually knows the entire story?
