  1. it is not the matter free Shipping or Great Deal!...it is all has to do with the condition of the sets, parts and minifigures. You need to ask : was it owned by an adult or child, kept well, no modern parts has been mixed with vintage parts ( many seller do that and claim even it is new!..for this you need to be an Expert find out parts related to each era ( if it bothers you of-course ) To me, buying Vintage sets mean i am expecting 100% parts from that Era! P.S: Also what i have noticed, Each Seller has his own Definition of: Great, Excellent and Like New Conditions....Dont Expect if he says: Great that you will get great as you think...i had many issues with these translating and made me so angry as i was receiving good condition for which sell stats: Like New! loooooool Be Very Careful Especially when you throw a lot of $$$ Cheers
  2. Glad to see someone with me :-)

    I just got screwed by a buyer! Need help

    PayPal always go for prove and attaching photos in their site. Looks like they closed the case into buyers favor since you didn provide any prove, but you can still call them which is better than mailing them. Honestly, when you call them and explain it works well than mailing them. And Because there is a selection of many solution seller can offer to buyer when buyer open a case one of it is ( issue a full refund and keep the item ). Looks like you didnt notice that when the case was open...... Try to call them and clarify to PayPal.

    I just got screwed by a buyer! Need help

    Hope this works and i will advise you to write an email about your issue to Bricklink Admin so they will be aware. As a seller in ebay since long time, and what i know through my experience, what ever buyers buy snd if the item was not as described or broken or whatever else, the policy is to return it back for full refund. If you are sure everything was sent perfecr, and the buyer is trying to act like a Sh**, the you need to prove with photos. I always take photos of the parcel, sets and shipping papers before i post items. But what i cant understand, how he got the 300 without returning?

    Lets take it step by step. So the claim process took place via paypal. Right? What paypal first will do is to ask the buyer to return the item back and then you refund him the amount. So how come he didnt returned it back and you were cut by 300??? There is another thing. Once the claim is ooened, the Mount will be held by paypal till the case is closed and set by 2 of you. I believe the amount os held till he returns back the set and then paypal confirm it then everything will go to normal. Please advice.

    71040 The Disney Castle Discussion

    Agree with the less number of minifigures, but LEGO released the CMF which i think their aim to combine it with this set + a marketing strategy to make profits ;)

    Is it worth buying a glued Lego set

    I dont buy any glued parts even if it is the cheapest on the world. I feel it is abnormal and will look awful.

    5004419 Classic Knights Set

    But there is Reddish Brown and black for which they could make the weapon color. Also Dark Bluish Grey would be better than Light Bluish Grey for Helmet. ;-)

    5004419 Classic Knights Set

    I agree with you, but as said could be better with above things ;-).

    5004419 Classic Knights Set

    The set is brilliant except for the followings : 1- The Helmet should be in Dark Grey color as in vintage sets and not in Light Bluish Grey. 2- The Axe Weapon Should be Brown or Black as in vintage sets and not in Dark Bluish Grey. 3- The Leg Should be in Light Grey Color as in vintage sets and not in Light Bluish Grey. TLG, should made the above in that promo set which i believe the can do it. Original Set has only 1 sheild which is attached to the Siege Cart.

    Looks like many orders has been placed in short time :)
  22. I have a feeling that, TLG will make a remake of Vintage sets in 2020.....the last vintage remake set was done in 2001 and 2002 which is almost 20 years from 1980's, so 2020 is also almost 20 years from 2001. ;) Cheers
