DadsAFOL Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 @Stragus is too humble - his program kicks ass. We do the "toggle" every day or so and it works fine. The problem is that we have 3-4 employees that may make minor adjustments in BL throughout the day, part out a set here or there, cancel an order, etc. I realize that it could sync over a manual update in BL, but we haven't seen that happen (or haven't noticed if it did). So don't stress if you forget to turn "on" before your change. It should be fine. BTW, that last item is important... canceling an order on BL and returning the items to stock will NOT sync to BO unless you force it. That's because a cancelled order doesn't show up when BS "fetches orders" from BL. So BS never knows the status changed to cancelled. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you do a "deep sync" using the "sync" command to get your inventory correct when cancelling an order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DadsAFOL Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Do you do a "deep sync" using the "sync" command to get your inventory correct when cancelling an order?I just do a blmaster on/off because the cancel process in BL adds the items back to inventory.

LegoMan1212 Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 What is (if there is one) the secret to show a summary of all parts sold during a certain time frame on BL? I see the check box of "items last sold: __ days ago or older. but am not sure how to use it. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely buy from BL so i dont know how the system works. I would actually recommend the option said before "try a new browser - as in IE/Chrome/FF" for this transaction, or a different computer. It is not uncommon for a stale cached cookie or session ID cache to stop shopping baskets or bank access from working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerEyez Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 What size bubble mailers do you use for minifig size/polybag? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randrace Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 #0 is the perfect size for poly bags and most of my orders. On the subject, I finally settled in my favorite mailer: Sunuku Mailers. They are on eBay and have a website. They are the cheapest US mailers I've found. Highly recommended if you've yet to choose a brand. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegoMan1212 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 I've added a lot of Used pieces to my collection, however, fear that my description of the pieces may hinder sales but I also don't want to sell something that may slip through the review of the pieces while making sure the buyer is confident in my inventory. So for my Used pieces, I generally say they are in Good, Fair, or Poor condition, unless they are minifigures that were for Display Only. I go through every minifigure part and accessories meticulously and note any imperfection, if any but I have a hard time saying "like new or Great or better phrases" because there are possibly surface scratches if you look for them by bending the light (like most pieces that are used) and possibly a very small scratch that I didn't see initially. Basically, looking for advice on how to best get across to customers that Good also means "no noticeable scratches/dents/etc...". I just have a sense that my rating system from the get-go may get someone to turn around and go somewhere else if they don't read the Terms on my grading system which basically is... Good = Other than possibly surface scratches, no noticeable scratches or dents (slight fading possible) Fair = Noticeable scratch or dent or possible fading as noted usually Poor = heavily scratched, or dent, or heavily faded as noted In the end, basically want to know if these words are good to use or do you have any suggestions on better ones that buyers like to see more than others that gets the point across but doesn't deter buyers. Overall, I have 100% faith in how I have sorted and broken down the conditions but unless it was nearly never played with, have a hard time saying the piece is "like new" or better than Good. thanks for any feedback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil B Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Your "Poor" would be my "Toss". Maybe as play material for my kids. I wouldn't make a condition note on "Good" - that's default, and only make note of the "Fair" items' condition. Plus a generic note in the Terms to indicate that Used pieces meet the above "Good" description, and that deviations from that standard are noted in the comment. Then mention that you're human and can make errors, and that you appreciate a chance to make it right should this happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Phil, i thought about doing something simple like this and indeed toss most things that would be Poor unless it could be used for fillers but then again, let's be serious, do I really care about selling something for a penny anyway. waste of time Also, one follow up question, is there a way to download your inventory back into a file compatible with Brickstock? I tried several ways but am not able to figure out how to go backwards once inventory has been loaded into bricklink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
