of knowing for sure but everything I have looked at says this one is one of the
350 given away at SDCC in 2013. the two things that I have seen that give it
away are the dotted coloring in the eyes and blue on the chest and the legs being
red with blue painted to points on the knees. Is there any other defining way
to tell? Also what does a loose fig of one of these go for?

I found a picture from Flicker, a comparison between Decool and LEGO® and I can
assure you, this one is a Decool copy ! Sorry

Nicolas

That is why I ask what is is a Decool and what would the real one have on it
mainly so I can explain to my kid he got super excited before he left for school.

Sorry, I can't put a link here but the picture is from Robuko on Flickr.
I can't copy the picture here even if I would, rights reserved...
Search for comparison Decool LEGO SDCC, you will find it
Hope you understand !

You'd don't think that was intentional misdirection, Nicolas?

It's the first I've seen without links, anyway

You're right, the first without link ! Are bots enough smart ? I don't

  Can a store in the USA charge other stores in the USA for their PayPal fee?
Thanks

Sure you can. You just add the fixed fee to your S&H costs for all transactions
and the percentage to your part prices.

So everyone else is wrong?

Well, you cannot add on a fee saying it is to cover PayPal fees. Adding on a
large fixed fee to cover it for an average size order or a percentage fee
at checkout for no specified reason is likely to get the buyer to dump their
cart and least favourite the store. So while a seller can try to pass the fees
on in other ways, more open pricing is more buyer friendly. And slightly higher
prices don't really matter if a buyer comes to your store because of parts
availability, it only really matters if you aim to be the absolute cheapest store.
But then, if a buyer comes to your store because you are cheapest and you suddenly
add on a large fee, again they might back out and least favourite the store so
as not to be caught again.

It says right in their terms that all electronic payments including PayPal which
is listed, you pay 3.5%. I know everything you are saying and I agree with you.
Thanks for clarifying

You have the choice: accept it and pay, or shop elsewhere.

... or report the shop/member if it's not authorized by Law, or PayPal -
which means not on BrickLink.

I'm 100% kind with amateurs sellers, but less to big shops who doesn't
give a brick of anything.

Hi,

Yesterday I placed an order on a little store where I saw that in store terms:
"Additional Bricklink/PayPal fees will be added at the end of the order (packaging,
ink, paper, zip bag envelope, etc...)"

Because I prefer to know before to pay how much it could be, I asked and had
this reply:
"These are bricklink, paypal, packaging fees, in general it is
between 1 and 2 € for small orders."

And when I placed the order, the seller asked me to pay with Paypal "preferably
between Family and Friends, that would be nice"

So, he add fees to the buyer but try to avoid them himself...

  Hi

Just to let every Belgium seller know: Mondial relay has changed there prices
to a Belgian pick up point. Below 500gram it is 50 cents more, above, it is more
then 1 euro, and the prices above 2,0001 Kg are insane (14 euro) (without any
notice)

All EU countries stayed the same (as far as I checked)

If you find any other changes, please share them.

Just be aware and change your shipping methodes to the right price.

Regards
Jeroen

Hi,

Mondial Relay prices were changed in France last month, without notice too. I
discovered it while creating a shipping label.
French post always change their prices every 1st January.

You have to be on the lookout if you don't want to lose money !

  We're mostly a castle system household when it comes to what the kids and
I build. The whole reason I even started parting out sets was to pillage parts
for us and sell the rest to offset everything. Concurrently, a game from my
childhood popped up on kickstarter and I ponied up for the super mega deluxe
version of Crossbows and Catapults. As we're patiently waiting for it's
delivery we've been adapting our LEGO play to incorporate break away walls
to knock down, but it's proving difficult because nothing has enough "oomph"
to knock things down.

This is way to weak with very short range.

We have plenty of magazines with that in France, I believe in complete Europe.
Lots of little City, Star Wars, Ninjago, Legends of Chima, Friends, Elves, Technic...
polybags
It's almost always cheaper to buy the complete magazine instead of just buying
the minifigure here
