| The small parts under the hinges are missing, definitely not broken, as I said
under loupe there is no damage at all. Just one of those mysteries, I guess.

Many new parts have scratches. Not big gouges, but faint scratches to the surface,
especially CMF parts where someone has felt the package rather heavily to identify
it.
But if it is damage you see by eye, and then use a magnifier to confirm, that's
a good idea.
Neck prints can also be deceiving. Sometimes that print is very low density and

up-down on the neck print, it is more likely.

Oh I know, I’m not overly picky about scratches and such because I know that
that can happen inside of sets and in bags with other items, that’s why with
the one item (a shield) I didn’t even mention that to her at first even though
with the naked eye I could see a scratch on the print, but I’m not trying to
nickel and dime anyone but a item listed as new and has bite marks or the item
with the neck print rubbed off from a head being removed ( which it does have
the ink going up the neck and that’s why I said it’s from a head being taken
off) and I’m paying for it to be new I expect it to be in better condition.

It is like anything in life that is slightly outside of the mainstream rules.
If a little bit happens but it is so insignificant that it doesn't really
affect anyone or get noticed, it is not really an issue and can continue. When
it happens much more often, and people start abusing it, then something needs
to be done. In that case, things that would have not been cracked down on in
the past suddenly get cracked down on, even though people see it as legitimate
as it was previously not cracked down on. The sellers and buyers of the transparent
Darth Vader and Batman figures really pushed the boundaries and it seems previous
not disallowed parts have been caught up in this.

| 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!)

| First, I have to say that most of the buyers that I have bought from have been
very professional and easy to work with. And now I have to rank I guess, I just
received an order today that everything was listed as new but when I looked them
over and I had a couple issues I reached out to the seller and she came back
saying that when these left her home there was nothing wrong with them. One was
a torso listed as “new and never assembled” but I can clearly see where the white
print on the neck is scratched from a head being removed and the second was also
a torso but this one had teeth marks on it. She said she took pictures before
she sent them out and I have asked her to send me them and I have sent her pics
of what I received. She said she had taken these out of the sets herself but
the first torso was from a collectors series and not part of a boxed set. And
another item, that I wasn’t even going to bother about, also comes from a collector
series but came with a couple scratches on it but it was nothing I wasn’t going
to work with but she states that all of it came from new sets that she opened
herself….. but again this wasn’t from a big box set. I understand that some items
scratch while in the bigger sets because of the way they are bagged but I have
also opened quite a lot of new sets and have never come across items in these
states of wear and have NEVER opened one that had teeth marks on anything lol!
She is refusing to rectify anything and said I can return them at my own expense
but that she cannot give me a refund for something that was described accurately
and shipped out accurately, which is false because of what I received proves
she is wrong. I think because Bricklink won’t do much on their end to help the
buyers out SOME of these sellers think they can do whatever they want and that
they can get away with it. She had one negative review over 6 months ago and
a neutral one so I thought I was relatively safe, her negative review was 2 missing
items in the shipment but she refused to compensate for them.
I have one order that currently is under review in PayPal but I don’t want to
keep having to do this, I just want the parts that are described as such to be
sent to me as such. Has anyone else going or been through problems like this?
If so how are you handling it?
Ps I want to state that I use a jewelers loop to review my items in my orders
so I can see all that is wrong or right with a item.

| Hello 
So... I purchased Lego's Pac-Man cabinet as well as LED lighting. I'm
also converting it to be motorized and I purchased the Powered Up 4-Port Hub
(85824) and a motor to run the game. As for the lighting, after all has been
installed, I'm left with a USB at the end to plug into a power source to
be manually switched. What I want to do is to plug it into the hub and have both
the motor and the LEDs controlled through the app. So as the title says, IS there
some type of adapter from the Powered Up plug to USB? Or even a train of adapters
that can lead up to a USB?
Thanks for any suggestions.

When was it received?
You've a proof of reception (but of course he received because he complains,
but for PayPal)?
Order total + shipping price?
Refunded parts price?
Qty of parts refunded // total parts?
You did well refunding what was said damaged/missing.

Then simply ignore?

It's possible they were damaged/missing.
Regarding returning goods, it's also possible - depending your conditions,
when it was received, etc.
But at the buyer cost AFAIK. NOT at your cost.

Over the years, for various reasons, certain people and groups of people have
been granted special access to acquire or purchase items/elements that are not
normally available to Non-LEGO employees or even to the general public. Typically
one-time closed-door events or deals, but with full authorization to acquire
those items. Also, typically accompanied by signed or handshake agreements as
well as Non-Disclosure Agreements to NEVER sell those items to the public and
not to talk about it.
Over time, however, and as those items pass from one person or generation to
another, those agreements to never sell may be long forgotten or disregarded.
I won't give specific examples that I know about, but some have included
special access to Lego Model Shop stock rooms; or deals to purchase bricks from
special production runs of specific elements and/or colors; or gifts of special
items as non-monetary compensation; or even as items to be sold to limited audiences
to benefit a third party that LEGO corporate wished to support.
Some of this type of thing still occurs, I am sure, tho I do not have direct
knowledge of such events like I used to have.
My point is that special items someone got 20 or 30 years ago could very easily
show up being offered for sale on BrickLink. And those special items are genuine
LEGO elements.
In fact, as a buyer, I have purchased many items like that on BrickLink and even
gotten some in other ways and have seen a few others with my own eyes. My term
for those items are 'Parts that Don't Exist'. Except that they do
exist, they were just never used in any Lego sets.

As a small store (550 orders in 2023), we hand 2 orders that were missing an
item or there was an error and we shipped out a second package.
We also had to credit about eight other transactions for a missing part (minor
10-15 cents here or there), which was spotted before shipment.
With 2900 orders to date never recall someone stating a part was broken, discolored
or that there was a quality issue.
Larger stores (50+ transactions a week) running brick sync are surely averaging
2-3 each week if not a lot more.

for
These also use 3 LR41:
I also went through and checked the part numbers for the battery covers of each,
much like what's already noted on
55823's is 56442
55824's is 56451
55825's is 56545
55826's is 56457
55827's is 56460
The number 56444 (noted on 55828 as being for the sword) appears on the black
plastic piece (electronic casing?), and is the same inside all six weapons. If
I were to guess, the numbers for the main part is behind the electronics, but
I'm not quite willing to tear these apart.
Also when displayed like this it's apparent that 55825c01 has a naming inconsistency,
listing the set number. Is there a preference there?

| I have seen a few discussions on getting the 6 month average for a store's
inventory using BrickStore but my quesiton is different (I think) from the discussions
I have seen.
I am looking to upload new stock using XML and want to automtically set these
products to the 6 onth average. FIrstly i gues is it possbile to do this with
BrickStore automatically. I havent found a way but I'm certainly no expert.
My option was to try and download all parts with the 6 month average and the
join them together to populate the XML.
Are either of these possible via Bricklink, BrickStore or any other tool?
Thanks everyone

Sorry to hear that.
I like these stories and I'd like to find some of those one day (especially
with some red/rust bricks with mold number 777 inside).

If it is from a new released set that just hasn't been inventoried yet, then
that is really silly. You'd think they would have more things to do than
delete parts like that from sale.

The simplest rule would be items from official sets. Then other items as custom

now.
Not that that would necessarily stop stolen, nightshift or similar items. If
illegitimate copies of (expensive) production parts are made, who is to know
of the origin? The only reason some parts stand out is that they are not known
in sets. Only allowing items that have appeared in sets could just shift what
is made by bootleggers. Although a lot of that bootleg jellybean type minifigure
trade still exists on ebay and facebok for the "rare", "prototype"
parts or whatever other description they want to use.

Good points.
I offer my somewhat personal anecdotal input, in part to balance the incessant
"stolen, nightshift" as you put it, scenarios all too readily expressed
by mostly the under-informed here. To those reading, understand or don't.

It is not from PAB. That was just an example to show that there are also legit
ways to get unreleased lego parts.
I bought the part from bricklink my self in 2014.

I think the point is that even if you bought the part here a decade ago, who
is to say that that seller's source was legitimate?
~Jen

The part has been retired for 30 years. This is 99.9% sure just a test part that
escaped the factory.
|
Especially in the 1990s, there were many legal ways such parts found their way
out of the factory. Leftover parts were, for example, sold in model shops and
employee shops. Employee children got to play with prototype sets to evaluate
them, and were allowed to keep them. Those were different times.

Don't bother.
If it's molded LEGO, it's 99.99999999999999% chance LEGO.
Counterfacters don't sign with the breand name, for obvious reasons.
