There are 3 plumes listed in the inventory as well as 3 plumes listed in the
minifigs inventory. They are all different but I can't see where they are
in the instructions or any box pictures. Are these extras or a miss count?

The onces in the inventory are what's left over from the 4502 wheels after
assembly of the minifigs

Makes sense. Thank you!

As to why they're in the inventory, they originally were packaged on a round
sprue with all 3 types and the child building the set could simply pick out which
style of feather they desired. I believe this was due to the fact that the alternate
models on some of the set boxes used one or more of the other two types in the
minifigs. Children building the alternate models were left to figure out how
to build them, and these feathers could be swapped out at will during play.
There was the leftover round sprue with parts still attached to it, which was
left to the child's imagination as to what to do with. Since then The LEGO
Group switched manufacturing methods and the feathers now come without the sprue,
which is presumably recycled at the factory.
Cheers ...

They haven't been merged there are still separate entries for normal (with
groove) and without groove.
They have been renamed to remove the "with groove" from the modern part
(well, 40 years old, but non-vintage part), and also renumbered from 3069b to
3069 and so on, so that the BL number correctly references the number that has
been used for about four decades and is not influenced by a part that hasn't
been produced for almost half a century.
|
3070a should actually be 3070 and 3070 should be 3070a. The same with 3069/3069a.
3070a has been around since 1965, 3070 only since 1972. 3 letters would also
be saved.
But what can you ask of the catalogue administrators in the meantime...
|
According to Russell, the 3069b and 3070b were never the grooved variety but
have always been the umbrella entity. The chosen renumbering reflects that.

I disagree. It should not be based on what came first, especially where the change
between them predates Bricklink and the internet. Nobody was calling these 3070
and 3070a in 1973 or in 1983 or in 1993. The 'modern' part had been in
existence for decades before bricklink was started and so it would have made
sense to call the modern part 3070 and the vintage one 3070a or 3070old. Most
people looking for a 3070 would want the modern part, not the vintage one. It
makes sense to use the LEGO part number for the most common version or current
version.

| Hi folks.
Yesterday i received an order of a regular customer.
He ordered parts from the 1x1 square tile , and 1x2 tile.
If i packed the order blindly i would have sent him the with groove variant.
The variants with and without groove seem to have merged.
The tile's where not on the list for merging?
Or maby on the "original" list but scrapped from merging i believe.
This is causing a major headache.
But because i know this customer almost exclusive buys old parts.
I messaged him about this problem and indeed he needed the without groove variant.
Please clearify this.
Also i would like to know why remarks are not consolidated?
Is this because bricklink will sent me a guy/girl that will relocate any "lost"
pieces in ghost drawers?
As a strategist i tend to see a long term goal to relocate people from second
hand market towards the PAB wall. A fee from a bricklink sale is way less then
the full cut they get other wise. People can only take so much "pain"
to look for older parts and are not willing to invest an increasing amount of
time to complete something. Also the complete silence from TLG regarding the
upcomming and current turbulences from this merge are quite worrying to me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best wishes

You mean Inventory stockrooms? How do you use your stockrooms? Are there the
same items in normal inventory? Do they have the Remarks? Do you have a donwloaded
(xml) file showing those exact lots having the Remarks, like a day before? Did
you upload something? What are the merge options especially about Remarks on
BrickLink?
It can be a complex problem/reason, you really have to get all information to
understand what happened. I don't believe BrickLink simply "decided"
to remove Remarks.

So..** I'm a seller **
I just noticed that all my DARK BROWN 3062 turned into BROWN, AND their prices
changed too, from inventories A & C!!!
It's SO UNBELIEVABLE, I didn't get any mail from the BL team saying there
was a major issue since the variant merge...
Please, has anyone noticed this issue?
are there any other bugs??
Thanks!

There hasn't been a major issue or there would be a mutiny here on the Forum.
I know it's frustrating to deal with errors in your inventory, but consider
the bigger picture. There are 4,800 Dark Brown 3062 for sale on the site, but
the only problem was with your shop? The number and name were updated on Feb
1. No items were merged.
Take a breath and check your info again. I do hope you find the issue!

Hello!
as you can see, I do have other things to do than working on/for Bricklink/Lego,
so I can't waste my time answering everyone..
But thanks for the very useful tips as to taking deep breaths LOL!

I wish you a very nice day.

No these are called qparts, non production parts. Prototypes nearly never having
a partnumber. I've seen only +- 30 prototypes and only like 2 had a partnumber.
These are added on the very final stage.
But you missed a part on my first message. There 4 different types of headgear
and 2 hairs that ALL having the same partnumber 95222. Which is impossible as
every part have a different ID. All 6 these parts came in blue, dark blue, brown
and lb gray. Slightly different off color and they having issues pulling them
of a head. Genuine lego qparts don't have this issue. You also don't
find this many same colors on different modern parts. Only red or lb gray as
they test the new mould in these colors. These popped up 5 years ago. Not much
info to be found. I'm sure TLG is aware of this.

| Hi,
few years ago I've added few hundreds of qpart (prototype) colors to the
database. sadly I've had a fake counterpart in my collection.
The blue Emmet part id 15443 is fake.
As some know area 2018 6-7 types of headgears and hairs popped up in 5 similar
colors , all with same partnr 95222 inside. With the lego logo and copyright.
I never checked then the partnr, as it had a logo, but the color blue was a bit
off color, also more friction then other hairs.
So I like to request to delete this counterpart from the data list and send my
apologies. 30€ wasted :o

Author: | MecaOne | Posted: | Mar 1, 2024 00:55 | Subject: | 7317: 30585a vs 30585b | Viewed: | 62 times | Topic: | Inventories | Status: | Open | |
| Hello, this is my first time posting to the inventories forum. I recently purchased
a used, incomplete copy of 7317 online (not Bricklink). This set is known for
having a revision where 4 of the instances of part 30585a were replaced with
part 30585b, with the longer connection point for the pneumatic tubes. The revision
also replaces a 2x4 brick with 2 2x2 inverted slopes.
The copy I purchased reflected this revision-- however, all 13 of
the tube joiners were the longer 30585b variant. As this "parts lot"
additionally included a complete 7314 the seller wasn't aware of, with the
rubber bands still in their original bag, as well as the instructions and box
for 7317, I'm inclined to believe this is a genuine variant from an extremely
casual, not very knowledgeable fan and clearly not someone who went to Bricklink
just to buy 9 more of the 30585b variant to swap in to the set for some reason.
I was wondering if anyone else had noticed the same with their copy, though I
understand given this was a used copy it may not meet Bricklink's requirements
to be cataloged as a third version of the set.

| | This treatment is consistent with any modern such items where set inventories
from LEGO do exist, and those parts are included (typically, all as one "single"
piece) regardless of if they are used or not. Personally, I would consider
a set incomplete without those pieces, much like I would consider a set incomplete
without spare ammo; it's not a matter of what is used in the builds, it's
a matter of what is part of the set.
|
Tat is fine for a new set. But for a used set, you only need the parts necessary
to build the set. No extras or even regular parts not used in the build(s) have
to be present to be used,complete.
