Mhm, quality on bricklink seems to be a completely foreign idea to many sellers.
For example this
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1433671
Is an order I placed, it’s not special or rare for me to get items damaged
like that, just about every order I place has items badly damaged that are never
noted (tho there are some amazing sellers as well!)

Looking at the pictures you posted on that order and seeing how bad they really
were, just out of curiosity, why didn't you leave an appropriate feedback
for the seller of at least a neutral?

I think it’s my Canadian nature, I don’t like leaving negative feedback. Even
if it’s horrible quality

If you're going to complain about the quality of "many sellers" every
time this topic comes up then back it up by leaving appropriate feeddback, even
if you get retaliatory neg/neutrals in return.

But then again maybe im just unlucky 🤷‍♂️. I’d say 9/10 orders I place arrive
with undisclosed cracks, bite marks, bad yellowing, and/ or heavy wear

For me it’s 4/12 orders have had something wrong with part/minifigure quality.
3/12 needed refunds

"Many sellers" - you're going to keep banging that drum right?

It keeps happening with almost every order I place without fail. So I havnt had

But then again maybe im just unlucky 🤷‍♂️. I’d say 9/10 orders I place arrive
with undisclosed cracks, bite marks, bad yellowing, and/ or heavy wear

9/10? 90% of your order purchases have problems? Yeah sure.

If that's your real ratio, either your standards are un-reasonable or you
don't know how to pick good sellers.

I dont know what to say but yes that's accurate. I wouldn't say my standard
are unreasonable, I only count what I mentioned above "cracks, bite marks,
bad yellowing, and/or heavy wear" in that list. the orders are typically
between $15-$100 made up of minifigure parts with a qty between 10-100 in most
cases. it is an extremely rare thing for me to place an order of used minifigure
parts and none arrive cracked, with bitemarks, yellowed, or badly damaged.

(and just in case its a misunderstanding I'm not saying the entire order
is damaged bur rather 1 or more parts in the order was damaged)
