Delays of a few days are not uncommon. I wouldn't even bother to close my
store.
That being said, people often close their store for an extended period of time,
for a variety of reasons: inventory, sick, dead, vacation, etc.

I closed mine for a month because I died, I got better though.....

| I placed an order in May of this year and payed the day I got the invoice to
the bank account mentioned in the invoice mail.
I did not received the parts and after a two weeks I started to contact the seller
here on bricklink and by the mail adress he placed in his profile. But there
was no response whatsoever.
But 2 months after the buy I got an NON-Paying Buyer Alert from the seller via
bricklink. I really was upset and responded to the alert buy saying that I payed
everything and I could give them proof if they want. But nothing happened after
this.
I also contacted the buyer once again but still no responce.
So now I don't know, what to do anymore. I will not accept any penalty for
something I did not do. I would also report a Non-Shipping Seller Alert but thats
not possible because there is the NPB on this order.
Can anyone help me out? I would really appreciate it.
Thanks a lot!

If I file an NPB and the buyer comes back requesting to cancel, I will usually
agree to cancel. Usually such buyers are apologetic and sincere, so I don't
mind.
However, if the NPB has already been completed, then I will not agree to cancel,
and will let the NPB stand. In this case, the buyer has ignored several messages,
plus an NPB so I have no sympathies left.
If I agree to a cancellation request, I always suggest to the buyer that as no
actual transaction has taken place, no feedback should be left, and I tell them
I will leave no feedback of any kind, and ask them to do the same. So far this
has never failed.
Thankfully, there are very few NPB's.

Hmm OK sounds like it works, I have a spate atm, 4 not paid yet. Over a week.

I usually send a reminder 3 days after invoicing. NPB after 7 days. If I filed
the NPB and then they want to cancel after I have already tried to contact them
I would go throw with the process of the NPB so I can leave appropriate feedback.

Thanks for the reply, do you contact via both email and BL messenger or just
messenger?

The way we do it is break them into three color categories: yellow, light nougat,
everything else. Within those colors, we then break them down by stud type. Finally,
we separate duel from single.
There are certain tricks we use in the search to help narrow down when looking
for the specific head. If you don't know you can put a minus sign before
the search term to eliminate those items. For example: "dual" -"glasses"
will show only dual sided heads but remove any with glasses. "beard", "teeth",
"stubble", are some of the more common terms we use with and without the minus
sign to narrow down results.

I discovered the - trick today, helped a lot!!

It appears in set #41426 Heartlake City Park Café
The reason it's hard to find is that the stickers are separate from the window
pane piece, in the set inventory the window panes are just normal trans clear
ones
The sticker sheet can be found here, for reference: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=41426stk01

| I'm pretty new to Bricklink. My first order was flawless, and I see that
neutral feedback is very rare/unwanted; if sellers fix the issue, we give positive
feedback. Good so far.
My second order
- shipped nine days after payment (not a huge deal, I might note it in my feedback
text)
- has 2 completely missing lots and 5 miscounts (I can ask them for a refund
or to put them on a new order, that's a straightforward fix)
- quite a few parts were, by my standards, dirty.
-- A dozen or so had some surface material that I could scratch off
with a thumbnail (which I can understand them not catching as I ordered parts
with heavy playwear and discoloration).
-- One 2x8 brick had light hairy mold completely filling it, which
I assume is because a little food stayed in and then it was stored damp; it washed
out under running water without scrubbing, but gaaaah.
-- Many are just... grungy. Like if I run a fingernail between the
studs, the stuff that looks like grunge actually is grunge.
The seller has been very responsive. When I asked about their cleaning techniques
after telling them about the moldy brick, they immediately sent me a youtube
link to the bathtub and dish soap technique (with two hour soak) and said, "Unfortunately,
even that sometimes does not clean all LEGO bricks."
So... What's the community standard here? Is this actually an acceptable
level of cleanliness for used bricks? If it's not, what would "making it
right" mean? Discount on a next order?
I want to give the seller a chance at positive feedback if that's still a
thing, but honestly if I were just thinking in terms of telling other buyers
whether I had a good experience with this store, the positives and negatives
balance out to neutral. They were responsive, but that was a lot of miscounts
and I don't like worrying about whether I should wash my hands after touching
a brick. Dealing with this store was solidly meh. Thoughts?
|
Thoughts? Not good! Id be mortified if an order id sent out was picked up for
being dirty, as for mouldy!!
All my used bricks go through the washing machine, long wash at 40c before they
are even sorted then as I sort them any that are still manky get a good scrub
by hand. Any discolouration and damage is described to the best of my ability
in comments. If it really bad it gets put in the charity shop bag.
No excuse for dirty LEGO just laziness.

That would be a very, very long discussion. Many parts don't have the logo,
including lots of older minifig headgear and accessories -- and some don't
even have the mold number, like old 4L bars and other small-and-skinny parts.
However, clone parts are almost invariably identifiable by the quality of the
plastic, the location of the pip, or the color shade. And fortunately, even marginally
passable clones of official parts are not nearly as common as less-experienced
collectors tend to think they are.

And if you're still not sure just post a photo here, someone will very quickly
give you an answer.

If you're the seller and order hasn't been paid for, why not just credit

Trans-Medium Blue glows under a UV light, while Trans-Light Blue does not. Some
frosted parts do glow under a UV light, but they aren’t too common. If you want
to look at some other neat reactions to UV light, try putting Coral, Neon Yellow,
Trans-Bright Green, and Trans-Orange under a UV light!

Yes. Transparent colors aren’t always the most consistent. You could also try
putting these studs under a UV light, as TMB is actually just another neon color
and will glow under said light.

All of the bags are this size and contain roughly the same amount of pieces.

Like others have said it varies wildly. Masks do well and parts that get lost

One thing I would suggest is you double check ball joint sockets as these crack

| Hi,
I got this figure sw0852 today. On Torso it seems to be cracked and also not
cracked, because on both sides the "Crackline" seems to be the same.
Could anybody help?
|
It is a pearl colored part, they always have a very visible seam.
Check, if you have, other minifigs with pearl gold, pearl dark or light grey
etc.
For instance a C3PO.
|
Yep this, DONT PANIC!, all my metallic torsos are like this.

I think it should be common sense to not do it like that.
No shipping in food boxes, no shipping in tobacco related boxes. Not as an inner
box, not as an outer box.
This to avoid allergic reactions, bad smell and hygienic problems.
The only thing to avoid this is probably to make a note with an order.
Good luck!
|
What is a food box though? If you use a store / shipping box that had 12 boxes
of 6 cereal bars inside, is it common sense not to use that?
|
Nope, that is not what tte OP and I meant, at least, not me.
I think he meant boxes that directly contained the substance, the (can I call
it shippingbox) outer box is a different thing but maybe not the case when you
have an extreme allergy.
|
Cereal bars are typically wrapped in plastic, so that is the direct packaging.
And that is probably the issue with using them and common sense. Different people
will have different assumptions as to what is contaminated.
|
Id never thought of this issue! Bad form on my part. I use card from cereal boxes
to make little envelopes for cloaks so they don't get screwed up in transit
{not that I sell a huge amount but now and again} . I shall resource my card,
and I thought I was being good for recycling.

Yes theres always a few bit that stick themselves together in the machine, usually
in a way that makes it almost impossible to separate them!
Now the question is, for all you big brained maths lovers out there, say I took
set https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=4476-1 a small set
at only 32 parts but a classic, how many times would I have to wash it before
it came out fully assembled?

Stop talking; run and buy a Lottery ticket!!!
Easy to reply: after all those washes, your LEGO parts will be disintegrated,
so, don't count on this.
An easiest way would be to reproduce and make your kid build the Set.
Wishing you... the best!

Ha ha this is true, the little ones are my unpaid sorters! Well they are paid
but in unwanted minifigs and chocolate.

Yep. Definitely the Friends one.
The DUPLO one is 3 x 3 in DUPLO studs, so it is *much* larger.

Yes I think you're correct thank you all
