Comments from Submitter:
I own the set 6559 and noticed that the torso for this diver is wrong, probably due to the fact that the life jacket covers the image and there is no way to confirm it from the instructions or otherwise.
|
I don't own 6559 but I own the other set that this figure came in, 6558.
The current inventory is correct for set 6558 so if set 6559 has a different
torso a new minifigure should be added to the catalog.

| I just had a situation where the buyer and me agreed to cancel an order so the
buyer could then revise the order and place a new one.
The buyer had already paid for the order via EFT (Canada).
I canceled the order and went through all the steps on the "Manage Refund"
portion of the order page. The order no longer shows up on my FEES page, so I
know that BL has completed the cancellation.
My question is, does BL initiate the EFT transfer of the funds back to the buyer,
or do I need to do that myself?
If BL does it, how long does that usually take? The buyer has already paid for
the revised order, but I want to make sure that he's not out the money for
the original order for very long - but I also don't want to transfer the
money to him if BL is going to do it again.
Thanks in advance for your answers.

Bricklink can only initiate refunds for onsite payments through Paypal or Stripe.
If the buyer used an offsite payment method you'll have to do the refund
yourself.

Yep.
However, it is very hard to correct modern inventories that are usually close
to 100% correct. So correcting older inventories pre-2020 would be where you
would mostly look for things to fix. Having said that, it is getting harder each
year to find older inventories that need correcting as they get are continually
being updated from many helpful members that buy sealed old sets and rip them
open for the greater good of the catalog.
|
For modern sets the only corrections that are usually needed are new molds or
prints that can sometimes be found in later production runs and should be added
as alternates to the inventory.

My own set (originally bought sealed and never mixed with parts from other sets)

Author: | paulvdb | Posted: | Mar 29, 2023 00:13 | Subject: | Re: ATTN: BrickLink "Trans-Black" Color Change | Viewed: | 97 times | Topic: | Catalog | |
|
| In Catalog, randyf writes:
| Dear BrickLink members,
In May of this year, the LEGO Group plans to release a new color, and this has
implications for the BrickLink catalog and marketplace. The new color being introduced
is 375 Transparent Black, and we believe it will eventually replace LEGO color
111 Transparent Brown.
As most of you know, the greater fan community has for many years referred to
LEGO color 111 Transparent Brown as "Trans-Black". Up until now, this
name has served us well because there was no official LEGO color known as Transparent
Black. Now that the LEGO Group is introducing a color officially known as Transparent
Black, it will cause alignment problems to have the same name being used for
two different colors.
We anticipate that the introduction of this color will cause some disruptions
over the short term, but we have created a plan of action to minimize those disruptions.
The first thing we will do is change the name of the current Trans-Black color
to "Trans-Brown (Old Trans-Black)". This change is scheduled to
take place at the beginning of April. This will ensure that the name change will
be very noticeable within the catalog, set inventories, BrickLink stores, order
summaries, etc., so that the majority of BrickLink users can adjust to the change.
Next, the new color will be added to the catalog as "Trans-Black (2023)"
to make it very obvious that this is a new color and should not be used for older
set inventories and older parts being listed for sale. This addition is expected
to happen at the beginning of May when set 75346 is released and inventoried:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1398124
After a 6-month transition, we will remove the text in parentheses from both
color names. The older color will then be "Trans-Brown", and the
newer color will be "Trans-Black". This will complete the transition.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The question arises, why have we decided to go the route outlined above rather
than leaving "Trans-Black" aligned to LEGO color 111 Transparent Brown
and creating a new color name for the new LEGO color 375 Transparent Black? There
are several reasons.
First, we want to make sure that we do not create long-term confusion between
these colors, since we believe the new LEGO color 375 Transparent Black will
become the standard color and LEGO color 111 Transparent Brown will become just
another part of the history of the brick system we all know and love. As time
goes by, the older color will not be seen as often and the newer color will be
everywhere. And after what we hope is a relatively short period of time, BrickLink
users will adjust naturally to the change.
Second, coming up with a name for a new color is not an easy task. Although it
looks darker than the current LEGO color 111 Transparent Brown, it doesn't
look much different from what most people would say is some type of "transparent
blackish gray" color. Typically, new color names grow longer over time to
help distinguish from existing colors, so we could end up with something like
"Trans-Very Dark Bluish Gray".
Longer names are something we have come to accept in a catalog that covers the
entire history of LEGO colors, but it helps lower the entry barrier to BrickLink
when we can use simpler names at least for the most common colors. Using the
relatively short names "Trans-Brown" and "Trans-Black" are ideal
instead of retaining "Trans-Black" for the earlier color and creating
a longer name for the new color.
Finally, aligning the names of the two colors with the official LEGO color names
helps us future-proof the BrickLink catalog. By aligning these color names now,
we make sure that any other colors the LEGO Group may introduce within this range
in the future would not cause any further issues.
Thank you for your patience as we make this transition.

Are there also going to be changes to other colors where Bricklink and Lego use
the same name for different colors like dark green?

When importing a set inventory in Brickstore there is a checkbox for including
counterparts. If you are using it to part out sets you should make sure that
that box is unchecked. Unless of course you want to have those counterparts listed
in your store. But in that case you should make sure to manually remove the individual
parts that make up those counterparts.

Hello
No...
the Shell truck = 4x light grey
+ the 2 spare = 2x light grey
the 3x small cars = 12x in white
|
Following the instructions, it seems indeed that the Shell truck has light gray
wheels, I can't find any spare ones though, nor can I find a parts list.
All three small cars have white wheels though, so there is definately a maximum
of 1 car with light gray wheels.
|
Based on my own set I can confirm that there are 3 cars with white wheels and
one car with light grey wheels. Together with the two loose light grey wheels
that makes 12 white wheels and 6 light grey. I guess lighting on the box art
photo could make it look like one of the small cars also has light grey wheels,
but they all have white wheels.

Can you please give us the source of this request.
Did you buy / receive this set sealed, does it still have the original parts
and does the string still have it's original length? Do you have any more
info that tells us the string is indeed 100cm?
Thanks,

I just checked my own set that was originally bought new sealed and never mixed
with parts from other sets. The set is built so I could not measure the exact
length of the string, but it seems to be somewhere between 120 and 125 cm. So
that would make it x77ac122.

| Goedenavond,
Is er iemand die van PostNL heeft vernomen owanneer de mogelijkheid om een buspakje
met track&trace te versturen beschikbaar wordt.
Ze communiceren een hele tijd geleden dat de tarieven en mogelijkheden aangepast
worden, maar ze krijgen het niet voor elkaar om op 1 januari de nieuwe verzendmethode
beschikbaar te maken.
Ik heb in de laatste week van december gevraagd of de verzendmethode hetzelfde
bleef aangezien mijn etiketten toen al Registered aangaven i.p.v. No Tracking.
Hierop kreeg ik te horen dat allen de Registered mogelijkheid beschikbaar zou
worden.
Nu een dikke week verder heb ik weer etiketten met No Tracking en heb ik de klanten
de veel hogere verzendkosten voor Registered berekend en kan ik alles teruggaan
storten.
Alvast bedankt.

Ik zag een nieuwe update vandaag bij inloggen op de PostNL zakelijke site:
"De afgelopen weken is er hard gewerkt aan het beschikbaar maken van het
internationale productaanbod. Helaas is een probleem met het printen van labels
nog niet opgelost. We willen er zeker van zijn dat alles goed werkt wanneer je
kiest voor de nieuwe aanvullende diensten. Daarom worden op dit moment alle aanpassingen
getest. Maar dat betekent dat het vernieuwde internationale productaanbod nog
niet beschikbaar in de pakketten & vracht-module. Daardoor kun je op dit moment
nog geen aanvullende diensten kiezen voor internationale pakketten. Ook kun je
nog niet kiezen voor ons nieuwe product Buspakje track & trace.
We begrijpen dat dit vervelend is. In de tussentijd kun je jouw internationale
pakjes en pakketten op de manier voormelden die je gewend bent. We geven je een
seintje als je ons vernieuwde internationale productaanbod kunt gebruiken."

Als je gewone enveloppen bedoeld is dat waarschijnlijk inderdaad correct. Luchtkussenenveloppen
mogen wel; die zijn specifiek genoemd in het tarievenboekje van PostNL. Voor
buspakje en pakje staat daar vermeld als toegestane verpakking: "beschermende

Because they require other parts to become a complete cow. See for example

Dus nu zwerft mijn pakket naar Ierland al 10 dagen door het Noordzeekanaal /
de Ierse zee of is opgehouden op luchthavens in Ierland?
Geen idee, maar frustrerend is het zeker.
Te meer omdat dit een pakketje was in het kader van Brickset Secret Santa.

Het is mogelijk dat het pakket wel is aangekomen maar dat PostNL de tracking
niet bijwerkt. Dat had ik laatst een keer met een zending naar het VK. Volgens
de tracking van PostNL was die nog onderweg, maar als ik de tracking code invoerde
op de site van Royal Mail kon ik zien dat het al was bezorgd. En dat was niet
de eerste keer dat PostNL de tracking van een buitenlandse zending niet had bijgewerkt.
Ik heb het ook al gemerkt bij enkele zendingen naar de VS.
