Good morning

It is now clear from the evidence we have gathered that the catalogue is not
currently correct for these part id's. The part
 
Part No: 87552  Name: Panel 1 x 2 x 2 with Side Supports - Hollow Studs
* 
87552 Panel 1 x 2 x 2 with Side Supports - Hollow Studs
Parts: Panel
is correct but
should only be used for solid colours, similar to the 3004/3065. Both the 94638
and 353787 are for Transparent colours of the same part - we are in the process
of investigating those two parts to see if there is any difference in them.

So far the 94638 comes in 4 transparent colours Trans-Clear, Trans Bright Green,
Trans-Black and Trans-Light Blue. The part also carries a slightly different
description with Lego - incorporating the Letters PC (PolyCarbonite) at the end.

The 35378 is currently only available in Trans-Clear, Trans Light Blue and Trans-Black.

All 3 parts are available through the Lego Bricks & Pieces site as separate items.

What we suggest in the first instance is to separate 87552 and restrict it to
solid colours only. Hopefully in due course we will have the answer on the other
2.

We are aware that nothing is going on on the classic site whilst the development
team focus on Bricklink XP, so we will make this as short and sweet as we can.

Having contacted the forum and put all elements of this together it is plain
that a subtle but important change needs to be in place for the price guide screen.

Understanding full well what happens with the 'sold at' columns those
can be left as they are until the whole price guide is revisited, whenever that
is going to be. The current items for sale, however needs s small but important
change, in our view. It is currently not possible to determine the currency conversion
rate for those figures. It could have been anyti8me in the last hour or this
hour or whenever.

Please simply add the two fields which are used to convert e.g. for example $1
= 'x' £;s and £1 = 'x$). This will enable any member, buyer or seller,
to at least get their figures correct when working offline. This is not a complicated
change/fix - it merely requires placing those fields on that screen each time
they change. The fields are held somewhere in the system even if it is a temporary
table, so it should be relatively straight forward to display them on the price
guide screen.

Thoughts ?

Need a little help here. The above set number is on each of the polybag mingifugres
that we have but of course they are individual figures not a complete set. Have
just tried to replace the catalogue photo with our own image and the system keeps
falling over with an internal resource problem Server 500 error. (Solved this
problem)

The picture of the complete set is confusing and despite the fact that the description
clearly says it is a single random figure from the set, we still get questions
about it.

The price guide for the 71017 is also not very helpful as it shows the price
for the complete set not an individual figure.

Need to understand better what is going on here. Help.
