| | So either the kid who this collection came from is unusually strong or LEGO is
having some serious quality control issues. I've found more broken parts
in this lot than I've ever seen before. I've got plates and bricks from
30+ years ago that have held up better than these parts from under 7 years ago.
Anyone else seeing an increase in damaged parts from newer bulk used purchases?

Completely common in the modern era, unfortunately.

| | Hi everybody
I want to enter this part Window 1 x 4 x 5 with Hollow Studs Item No: 2493b
in my collection but the color I have does not exist. My part is black. I don't
know which set it comes from but I saw on https://rebrickable.com/home/ that
there are at least 9 sets in which it takes place in black. How can I do ?
Thanks.

It most likely comes from one or more of the following sets:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=2493&colorID=11&in=A
that currently contains
When someone can prove definitively that any of those sets came with the hollow-stud
version of the window, then we can update the inventories to show that. This
will then trigger the color "Black" to show up on the catalog page for

| | Hello there!
Could we maybe start giving Legs a bit more descriptive names?

These days, almost everything gets a very descriptive name, but that was not
always the case. Having said that, everyone is free to submit name change requests
on anything that they find lacking in description, and that has always been the
case.

Thanks you for your consideration.

Thank you.

All paper items in the catalog should be set to Volume Bound according to our
guidelines. Any new sticker sheets, cardboard items, etc. added to the catalog
get set to Volume Bound from the beginning, but ones that we come across in our
travels through the catalog that need to get updated get updated. To solve your
issue, you have a couple of choices. You can change them in your personal store
settings to "Weight Bound"
|
In this last batch of 100+ stickers whose package types were changed to Volume
Bound, many, if not most, of them, I had already set them manually to Weight
Bound in my store. Usually, as soon as I add them to my inventory.
Not something you have control over but I don't think these changes should
override my initial settings.
|
You are right. They definitely should not override your initial settings. If
they do, then that is another "feature" that should be addressed.
| |

sticker sheets causing the issues to the catalog.
Cheers,

I'm not 100% confident with this one, for the images don't show all sides,
so there could be differences the images don't show. Like these are different
also (different on the BL images that is).
[g=LG11007]
I found images online though, which do look the same as the other 3. So the BrickLink
image could be a render from a catalog or website and not represent the actual
item.
And then those will be left to merge just because of black instead of white printing.

You already merged the pocket photo albums that had different printing colors,
so I don't know what the difference would be here.
| | I didn't have time to look for more differences.
Although I appreciate it very much that you are looking into this, I would also
appreciate it if you would wait with more requests like these. We already know
that there are more items that can be merged for the same reason, but doing that
takes a lot of time.
The actual merge doesn't take much time.
But before we can merge we have to check if they are indeed 100% the same (except
for the color), then save all info and images of the items that are going to
be merged. All wanted lists and items for sale have to be updated.
And after the merge all this info and images have to be added manually.
So it's not just pressing a button
