Good morning,

Had an order on May 5, 19.18, but when I want to click on the username (with the picture of the buyer in the "circle") next to it, no hand comes up. So the link to the user information page doesn't work there. Maybe a temporary glitch? All recent other orders, the link works, as it always has.

Delivery address not a company name, not a person's name, just initials, same as the username.
I checked the address in telephone info, initials do NOT match the name of the resident. Ergo, because I don't know anything about the orderer/buyer, I won't send an email, a message via Lastdodo is then the appropriate "solution", but as long as the link to the username doesn't work, I can't do anything.

Please message

Harry

We need to investigate this, it may take a while.

Thanks, no problem, I just cleaned my browser, etc., but that didn't help either.

In any case, the link to the user info is important to me, a buyer can see through feedback and my user data what I "propose" and as a seller I also like to see user info, including feedback. Presumably this user is "new" in LD, ( no problem either ) but maybe I'm wrong. I also notice that newcomers are careful with entering data, they do not know LD and well, the experiences of many on the marketplace have not done any good in recent years. That aside.

Have A Nice Day,

Harry J

Good morning.
Additional (not with the aim of making haste, mind you) to find out the reason for the unclickable username: Just another order from another buyer, that works fine, viewed the most recent orders: there it says for the users name : first and last name and between brackets ( the username) The non-clickable ones therefore only contain initials and NO ( )
I hope this helps to solve the riddle.

Morits , is it true that the username also does not contain ( ) ?
I also have 1 without ( ) So it may be that new users have turned off their setting regarding receiving and sending messages via Lastdodo (so not the email directly_). If so, not pleasant for me as a seller, because I have no insight into user information.

I received an inquiry this morning from one Aloys Budde. He asked for 2 Swiss stamps. When searching the internet I ended up at a law firm in Germany. The place of residence was identical. Bearing in mind the story in the magazine Philatelie about trading with German buyers and the criminal consequences thereof, I have decided not to respond for the time being. Does anyone have an opinion on this?

What kind of story? Please answer German customers in any case. Many excellent transactions are made with German buyers every day.

Your story / question has nothing to do with my report, but what do you actually mean by "trading with German buyers and the criminal consequences"?

And there is nothing wrong with orders from German collectors, I have had excellent experiences with them, by the way, comic books and no stamps. ...

I received a request this morning from one Aloys Budde.
Me, too. Invoice sent, payment has been made and the stamps have been sent. Seems totally fine to me.

But as Harry56 says, this post doesn't belong here and should have its own thread. Now the topic has been hijacked / polluted by a topic that it is not about here.

I approached the latter without ( ) by email anyway, I think that's fine given a friendly response, although it is an order with "payment in 14 days". Well, I'm in no hurry, so I agree.

I don't dare to do the 1st without a decent first and last name, I set it to cancel with text that can be reordered, but then please add the full name and username in the LD system.

ApiSta I'm curious about that story about philately, but maybe someone else knows that too, the nice thing about a forum that you keep getting wiser..

Morits Harry56 ,

Vwb orders without username:
We are testing being able to order with all mandatory data (first name, last name, email address, street, house number, place of residence, country, language) but without having to create an account immediately. This can be done afterwards after the order (the only extra thing you have to do is choose a username and password). We see in the test that this generates many additional orders. Not everyone wants to create an account immediately and people can drop out, which is a shame. Afterwards, creating an account with little effort so that you can better track the shipment, for example, works better for that group.
That may explain why you sometimes don't see a username (yet).

All comments are clear. My inexperience with forum communication is to blame for this. My sincerest apologies and I'd love to put it all right if only I knew how.

The criminal story in outline:
There is an article in philately year 2022 serial number 4 Selling on Delcampe or eBay? Attention!
This article describes how someone wants to sell a stamp to a German customer
The seller also receives a reminder to pay a fine because he is not formally registered on the German philateist market. Ultimately, the seller has to pay something of 15,000 euros as compensation from the German court. After this the story ends. A second article with the same title a few months later, has a German lawyer speaking and he confirms in many words that the German rule of law in this area is indeed structured like this.

As a result, I am very wary when someone places an order with me for 2 cents and I find on the internet that the buyer and a law firm may be linked

You've explained it nicely. Isn't it handy that you create a new topic in the forum section stamps. Shortened with the same text. Then the stamp experts (there are quite a few) may be able to tell you more. Mainly to possibly allay your anxiety.
