| HI, I'm the owner of a somewhat small store in Mexico, and as the Subject
says, I'm looking for tips to appeal more to american buyers.
I opened my store back in August 2020 trying to fill the gap of the tiny but
growing BL market of my country for lego pieces. From the beginning I had no
intentions on trying to sell to the US, but recently I've received a handful
of orders for normal parts/minifigures (I'm excluding vintage sets from the
equation) from the states, so it made me realize I can also focus on shipping
to the US.
My main target is to groom and grow the domestic market and Bricklink community,
hence all my terms and shipping stuff are thoroughly explained in Spanish, and
my English sections are brief and to the point, assuming buyers from the US are
more familiar to the site.
I wanna see if someone here is kind enough to visit my store and tell my what
can I improve (from the perspective of an american buyer) so I can tap more into
your market, but without setting aside the mexican side of the store. Obviously
I'm trying to increase my inventory and lot count, but I wanna see if there's
something else I can improve about my store.
Thanks for reading!
-Fidel

at $6 usd but then in the chart at it costs $27 usd which may confuse buyers

The $6 shipping is in the text above the shipping table.
"American and Canadian orders can ship for as low as $6 usd if your order fits
in a 4x8 inch bubble mailer, it may go for a bit higher depending on weight."
I would figure out how to make your shipping info clearer.
People will gravitate toward tables and overlook info in text surrounding the
table.

| What you are already doing right:
-Instant check out
-No fees/hidden fees during invoice
What might help:
-no minimum buy, 27 of my 50 last filed orders were for less then 10 usd two
under 1 usd.
