In Germany both orders can be combined, but most spare parts are not listed in the online spare part section , so you have to write all the things you would like to purchase in one list and send it to Playmobil.

That is interesting. In the US we can only order individual spare parts in one order and any DS bag sets and boxed sets in seperate orders, never combined.

I have spent over $900 on a single order before, and not just once or twice either  ;D... then they added that $500 limit last year :'(  (never on a spare parts order though always on sets through the DS)

This limit is made only to generate more user accounts in their database...... the easiest way to bypass this stupid limitation....

Wow, I can't imagine spending $900 on playmobil all at once! Not that I don't have that much and much more on my wishlist, I just can't imagine being able to afford it!

In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.

First answer received today:

Thanks for the pics of your collection, we added them to your customer account details.

Your order has been forwarded for processing, we will deliver shortly.



No answers on my further questions......still hope to receive more.....

Hi,

I think it would be a good idea to write Playmobil a mail and ask for the reason and the impact being a collector or having the remark "Collector" in their customer database.

I will keep you informed.

Regards

How would they even know the pictures you submit are yours?

Yes there are ways to look at picture info from cameras but that can be gotten around.

And whose to say pics that show lots of Playmobil aren't of stuff to resell?  Unless it's in display cases.

To be fair I hadn't bought any for several years... out of the game... and since those large orders I haven't ordered more than $150 a pop... and since they reduced free shipping to $50... that is the new $150. :) so it was only a few REALLY BIG orders... that and my wife had a TON of sets she wanted at the same time...  :lol: This is also the reason I have spent less since joining here... because I spent a LOT catching up just before I joined  ;)

If someone wants to fool, he will always find a way.

In the first step I send them a link to a thread here which shows some of my train spare parts...

No clue how they prove the pictures.....

That's what I first said. And display cases prove nothing. Can be to sell too. Can be someone esle's.

And WHY IN HADES DO THEY CARE?
