What would be better, is if the buyer were required to specify their shipping
address, then have two checkboxes under that …
One would be something like "Home address in same country as shipping address".
The other would be "Payment funded from same country as shipping address".
If either is unchecked, then it would be required to specify which country is
correct for that item.
This would not solve the indicated problem, but it would give us better information
to tell what buyers are more likely to be legitimate buyers.

I think your suggestion above opens the door toward couriers, which in turn for
some buyers places courier, their packing, and their shipping responsibilities
on sellers, as opposed to ending seller responsibility at courier receipt.
I recognize couriers' value as well as the added risk they can present, and
have no solution at this point.
I do not like things big brother-ish, however admittedly would prefer to not
have the final destination and possible re-packing or breaking down of something
I've packed be secrets.

Would it be possible to block a buyer having an email from a given country eg
Russia, but his postal address is the UK?
Just got yet another scammers ordering from my shop with this very suspicious
config, even got negative from himfeedback from him.
Or a setting that enables us to block and oblige the buyer to pay buy only with

This is a poorly thought out suggestion. As it is written, it should be tossed.
Having said that, I believe there is a need for better information disclosure.
What would be better, is if the buyer were required to specify their shipping
address, then have two checkboxes under that …
One would be something like "Home address in same country as shipping address".
The other would be "Payment funded from same country as shipping address".

People move. Either for years or only months or even weeks. And the Internet
has no frontier.
Will you force buyers to open a new e-mail account in the country they are while
they had had one for years that works pretty well anywhere in the world?

Hi,
I stated that associating emails with countries would be messy (i.e. I agree
with you), and I was not supporting the original suggestion.
But instead I wondered if BrickLink could verify member addresses against IP
address locations. A recent transaction indicates that PayPal is doing something
like this.
Sorry to cancel my previous post, not knowing if anyone might be replying. This
forum is a lot of (good) clutter, and after posting I weigh the value of my inputs
against adding to the clutter.
Thanks for the IBAN information, Matthew

Please don´t even joke about this! I live in Slovakia spend the year in ASIA
my IP is from Vietnam/Japan/China whatever. I come back home on christmass and
open all my post sent home in the year. I use gmail which has "gmail.com" means
global ... I have enough troubles with money transfers just because some pages
need to have my address locked to IP which I find is the stupidest thing on earth
in 2018 !! Some helpdesk guy even told me to travel home change my country and
come back ... 1200 €for fligh ticket just to change my country of origin if I
have all document with it on them to buy a 10 € token ... oh yes! Please think...
rules like these make a lot of hell for people like me.

| Each seller chooses the payment methods they want to accept. There are many that
offer alternatives to PayPal such as bank transfers, Stripe etc. If you have
an issue using PayPal then just check what other methods the seller has set up
before ordering.

| Isnt it time Bricklink was to offer other payment methods , we used to have our
church group on paypal then a couple of year back they said no ,you now have
to nominate a single person . if that person dies or goes on holiday or any other
reason our buying and selling comes to a stop (unless we use amazon ) we are
currently going through a situation where our account has been put on hold while
paypal investigate £1.01p the reason why i could go on and on,i just so happened
that we had placed 3 orders with brick link and a purchase with ebay , so the
question s how do you pay , one of the orders was paid via Pingit .its becoming
classed as restrictive practice will a government in one country take action
against this ,i can see it happening , so is it no paypal no bricklink !!!!!!!!!!!!!answers
on a toilet roll please
