Seller Ships to My Country Store: Utica Brix
I placed an order from GY Bricks 3 months ago. Still no package. I tried on
4 different occasions reaching out to this store and no response. I looked
on his account and many people are reporting him as a scammer, doesn't ship,
never responds and do not buy from. They have 11 negatives and 6 neutral in
the last year. My fault I should have researched before buying.
How is this store still being allowed to sell on BL?

report him to bricklink, file an NSS (after 3 completed his store will be permanently
closed) and file a Paypal claim

I guess not enough of the people leaving negative feedback are starting NSSs?

Anyway, I agree with Nubs - start an NSS and file a PayPal claim (if you paid
via PayPal ... I see some feedback suggesting he only accepts bank transfers).

This store has over a dozen complaints in one year. 3 NSS. Every complaint
is about the same thing. How is BL not removing this scammer?

According to all of them, none have been refunded. And if they did, they did
not change or revise their comment, nor remove it.

I think they actually have to take action to complete the NSS - it's not
enough merely to file it and wait.

He closed it, NOT Bricklink. In fact if you read the full note it says if you
want to buy, the password is "LEGO"

The seller closed the store on their own, not BL. How did you miss that?

Yes, we are questioning why they have not been removed from BL. And he is not
fully closed if you read the next line.
