buyer. I'm not sure why you specifically mentioned station tho as chit chats
and Canada post also have DDP

I saw it only on Stallion Express so far.

To make sure: if you ship a $700-order to a European country with "APC priority
worldwide track (DDP)" , what would happen then?

if the buyer was charged tax on delivery. lets go with 20% which seems to be
normal in Europe then you would be stuck with the $140 bill plus any other import/brokerage
fees. in my experience, this is usually charged in advance on the checkout screen
when buying the label based on the value you entered in the customs value field

I shipped in Nov. that order to Belgium. Since the value was above 150 Euro,
Bricklink did not collect anything. The buyer received the order and what I did
not know is that he was not charged anything. Two weeks ago, $155 CAD was deducted
from my balance on Stallion Express.

I then checked if I shipped any other order with this DDP option and found about
10 of them but apparently, import fees of those orders were already deducted
by BL and my documentation and submission of VAT number had worked. If one day
of a country like one of those Easter European country, somebody mess up and
they don't get the documentation of already-paid-VAT and decide to double
charge the buyer, then the seller (me and you) would be charged VAT.
I am now seeing all my orders to Australia are shipped via "APC priority
  
  worldwide track (DDP)" and if one day somebody, either Aust. Post or Australian custom office messes up, I would be charged the already-paid-import-Fees! Or I can ship the orders to Australia for $20 extra cost with the second cheapest option that is not DDP.

they don't get the documentation of already-paid-VAT and decide to double
charge the buyer, then the seller (me and you) would be charged VAT.
I am now seeing all my orders to Australia are shipped via "APC priority
worldwide track (DDP)" and if one day somebody, either Aust. Post or Australian custom office messes up, I would be charged the already-paid-import-Fees! Or I can ship the orders to Australia for $20 extra cost with the second cheapest option that is not DDP.

mhm, it can be a very not nice surprise

Like this

That's quite a lot of drawers.
Do you store Lego inside your drawers or do you store drawers inside Lego?

usually the second option i love building lego boxes to store my
drawers!

whatever option you use, I hope you already know the meaning of DDP when you
ship with Stallion.

its delivery duty paid right?

what does it mean in practice? what happens?

basically, all costs in the shipping process go to the seller instead of the
buyer. I'm not sure why you specifically mentioned station tho as chit chats
and Canada post also have DDP

I saw it only on Stallion Express so far.

To make sure: if you ship a $700-order to a European country with "APC priority
worldwide track (DDP)" , what would happen then?

if the buyer was charged tax on delivery. lets go with 20% which seems to be
normal in Europe then you would be stuck with the $140 bill plus any other import/brokerage
fees. in my experience, this is usually charged in advance on the checkout screen
when buying the label based on the value you entered in the customs value field

I shipped in Nov. that order to Belgium. Since the value was above 150 Euro,
Bricklink did not collect anything. The buyer received the order and what I did
not know is that he was not charged anything. Two weeks ago, $155 CAD was deducted
from my balance on Stallion Express.

I then checked if I shipped any other order with this DDP option and found about
10 of them but apparently, import fees of those orders were already deducted
by BL and my documentation and submission of VAT number had worked. If one day
of a country like one of those Easter European country, somebody mess up and
they don't get the documentation of already-paid-VAT and decide to double
charge the buyer, then the seller (me and you) would be charged VAT.

(Breaking News)
Last night there was reveled a secret the I.S.S. had been hiding for years.
A mountain taller than Everest of unused drawers! Visable from space, the pile
was quickly voted one of the new wonders of the world.

No worries, they no doubt thought you were looking at your account balance

Any bank that creates "lines" for their customers, can shampoo crotches!
Move onto another institute of which there are many, to park your money...

I used to take them out sometimes I would misplace one or two so I found a new
way of doing it. I don’t know if it’s good, but it works for me what I do is
once it’s empty I just turn it around and keep it inside the cabinet as you’ll
see in the picture, it helps from losing it and also helps from getting any dust
onto the other adjacent pieces…
Good luck

I put them back in the same spot.

I then query my inventory using XML exports and excel when doing an upload to
find the most empty drawers. I have all my drawer numbers hard coded into the
query and if it returns an error saying it can't find a particular drawer,
then the code changes that drawer's weight to 0g or empty.
