I find that it works more smoothly than Paypal. I've been using it for nine years now with nary a problem. But please, if you have specific problems with it, I'd love to hear them. Most often I've found that, when the wheels come off the wagon, it is because there was a loose nut behind the wheel. But that's just my $.02 (and probably worth even less.)

Stripe is a gremlin bro

Well I am glad you found it, I never would have guessed that as I get both payments in the same account. Hopefully they can join them back together for simplicity's sake.

OMG. I went to the Stripe virtual support assistant, who was clueless, but offered to connect me to a live agent. To do so, it asked me to "pick my account" - and it showed two accounts with the same name. Turns out, Stripe created two identically named accounts - one for all my BrickOwl payments, and one for my BrickLink payments. I didn't see the payment, because I was always looking at BrickOwl. On the main screen, I switched over to the other account and lo and behold, there was my payment. Why there are two accounts with different balances is beyond me, but at least I found the payment!

That seems very odd to me, can you check the transactions, do you see the transaction there? It will be a while for funds to deposit but the transaction should show right away, it always does for me.

Stripe typically holds the payout for 7-14 days to assess risk and ensure funds are available. If this is the first transaction via Stripe, yours or theirs,, you will definitely wait at least 7 business days.

2x2 Dome Top Brick in Orange (part 553). I'm now struggling with their payment. They paid using Stripe which I configured a while ago but apart from customers on BrickOwl I have not had anyone use it on BrickLink. It's been 5 days and I still see no evidence of a payment in my Stripe dashboard. I have just written to BL Support to see if they have any info on the payment. I know Stripe is slow to post, but this has been 5 days ... anyone any insights or similar experiences with Stripe?

My bad I was thinking of this one: Dreamzzz 71501 Game Island Tower. Set included a light blue classic space torso.

It is still on Lego’s site - Mateo’s Spray Paint Truck - Listed as coming soon - August 1st

Retail me not

RTM is ?

That set got canceled

Kind of like termites. They were destroying the foundation of Amazon "building". Once removed from Amazon, they migrated to Walmart "building" and are destroying the foundation there. Amazon foolishly created support beams that leaned on Walmart. So when the termites are done, both platforms are going to fall in loud boom. Witht that thought, Have a good summer everyone ! ☀️

Thanks for that confirmation. That was my guess as I was going through Bricklink. i have ordered all the bits required for stripes additions to the display for the two new figures plus the dark blue, as i see they are coming out with a dreamzzzzz set that has the helmet and tank in dark blue. no idea why i like the classic space figures so much, but i do

Giftcards.com has 10% off again for LEGO with code SUNNY10. 10% back with RTM is also active and the big astronaut GWP.

It's a shame that more of the people in that group haven't yet realized that a rising tide does not lift all ships.

The ignite goup has really harmed selling in a new way. After amazon gated many ppl this past holiday season, ignite has gotten 100's of sellers approved to walmart. walmart used to be very few sellers and high prices. No longer. But thats not even the issue. Now, Walmart prices have cratered on many sets. Amazon sees the price and suppresses buy box till its as low. Case in point: Typewriter. Was selling close to $400 briskly on amazon. Then one day its suppressed until $333. Sure enough, I check walmart and thats the new seller lowball price on walmart.

Why worry? A quick view of the address shows that it is indeed LEGO. And LEGO owns BL so they already know who you are. I'd say that this is about as safe as it gets (unless you send them some non-LEGO bricks.) I wished that they would order from me. I would offer to hand-deliver, from Alabama.

Wow, that is insane. I literally just went straight to WallyWorld and bought the original set (it's somehow still on clearance there for $200) just so that I can build this MOC instead!! Thanks for posting!!!

In the past they have done this for contest prizes. Was the element anything special.

Thanks .Have not shipped out yet.Ebay has already deposited the funds from the sale in my account.Will ship out today

Hmmm .... should I be worried? This is the buyer's address on a BL order: Address: <snip> 100 Print Shop Rd. LEGO SYSTEMS, INC. Enfield CT 06082 USA Account was created in early May. 4 Feedback. Ordered close to a 100 pieces of one part. Picked my most expensive shipping option. Curious.

This is the guy that did the Hulkbuster
