| Which preset am I supposed to select when submitting a change request for instructions?
I assumed it was just the Catalog one.
However when submitting it tells me; "Item No to Change does not exist in
Catalog."
I am copy/pasting them Item No from the existing entry.
I've tried changing to Book rather than Catalog as well as attempting to
change the Item No by removing both the -1 and "Instructions Entry" Text.
I did not expect these to work and indeed they did not.
Looking at the Catalog Add or Change menu, there is an option for instructions
under Add Image but not under Change Item.
I just wanted to submit weight and dimensions for an instruction manual.
Perhaps I am missing something. But the guide just leads to the same Change Item
form, which is where I started.

| Hello,
The Bricklink administration removed one of my selling listings. The reason was
that the parts were listed in a non existent color.
The part was actually a genuine lego part, listed in the correct color. Only
was it never released in an official set, so it does not show up in the color
guide in any set. Is it no longer allowed to list such parts? As far as i know
this type of parts could be obtained in a legal way from a pick a brick wall.
|
Please tell us which part it was that was removed. It could have been a mistake,
but it could have also been an unwritten rule that we have had to enforce because
of the problem of fake parts. Unfortunately we do not have a log of deletions.

Great question, the baby dinosaur part in tan always confused me as it's
not in any sets, but there are a decent amount of them for sale.

I wonder what would that proof could look like....
An invoice from PAB with a line 'prototype part'?
Can someone give an actual example of proof of purchase that would be accepted
by BL?
|
If bought from online PAB, then the paper invoice they send has all parts listed.
If instore PAB, maybe a photo of the PAB tower, although the majority of parts
I have ever seen on a PAB wall have already been common parts. Whereas online
PAB has had parts that were not (yet) released in the past.
It is more likely that they would be from one of the German warehouse type stores
or LEGOLAND builder stock than from PAB.

The error there is yours. You shouldn't be searching "3068bp*".
If you go look, nothing is named that. They just put the old numbers in as
alternates so people who were unaware of the change will be able to find things
labelled with the old numbers. You are aware of the change and should only be
searching "3068p*".
| If 3068b doesn't exist anymore ALL the 3068bp should change to 3068p

They did. You are finding the same pieces in both searches, except the "bp"
search will omit new ones going forward and also the peeron, LDraw, and I guess
Star Wars ones.

Only in their alternate numbers.
Yes

The search is fine, it is searching alternate numbers. So those 3068p- that have
a 3068bp- alternate number will be returned on a search for 3068bp*
|
This works only for OLD tiles.
So if you look for the 3068bp* in your inventory, only some will spawn.
This is wrong.

The old item numbers 3068bpXXXX were put as Alternate IDs in the corresponding

3068apb are old, old ones without groove.
3068p are printed ones that were described by LDraw before Bricklink was created.
Dan used their designations to harmonize and gave them credit.
3068px are printed ones that were described by Peeron before Bricklink was created.
Dan used their designations to harmonize and gave them credit.
3068pb are printed ones that were described on Bricklink after creation.

A rhetorical question more than anything but I'd love if someone entertained
me with an answer still. This is the same as discovering that something that
you bought at a grocery store has mold in it, but the store refusing a refund
because you did not save the receipt.
If such an imaginary proof existed even theoretically - fine. But otherwise -
owners of legitimate parts are getting slapped in the face once for having their
listing removed, and then getting laughed in their faces by 'show me a receipt
from 30 years ago, then we will allow you to list the item".

If 3068b doesn't exist anymore ALL the 3068bp should change to 3068p
So, actually the inventory is inconsistent because new tiles are under the 3068p
following the new rule that 3068b doesn't exist anymore.
But old tiles are under 3068bp.
Do you understand now?

They have removed parts that are not in official (retail set) colours, especially
minifigure parts, where they have been made by "night shift" workers
that then steal and sell them. I imagine that possibly legitimate parts have
been caught up in this.

Is it a sticker? If so then maybe it is a sticker that is supposed to be put
on a different piece and not a 2x4 slope.

| Hello, this has been bothering me for a while now, but several of the mask packs
listed either do not exist at all, or are listed with the wrong region.
For starters, the US/non-US distinction -- having spoken with several Canadian
BIONICLE fans about these, Canada had the boxed versions as well. Additionally,
LEGO's naming scheme uses the distinguishment of "IN" and "AM",
rather than "NA" or "US", which leads me to believe that they
were available in both South and North America.
Considering that Connecticut became HQ for LEGO's activities in all of America
around 1998, this also tracks: https://www.lego.com/en-gb/history/articles/g-production-in-brazil/
Further-more, I have found no evidence of 8530, 8559, 8597, or 8600 existing
in boxed form. Just Google them, there are no photos of them - because they do
not exist.
To go through each set one-by-one:

This one is correct.
This one is correct.

This one does not exist; the image used in a prototype moccup of the box art.

(this onse seems to confused 8559 and 8597).
US Catalogue: https://archive.org/details/lego-shop-at-home-summer-2002/page/n31/mode/2up
This one does exist. The image is a digital moccup.
[S=8559-2]
This one is correct.
This one was released in America.

This one should be labelled non-American polybag version.
This one should be labelled American boxed version.

I don't know what the practice is (or was at the time) but it seems reasonable
that there would be 1 cord per polybag so they could be grabbed and inserted
into the set more easily, whether by a human being or a robot. This would also
prevent their getting tangled in the bag. Imagine trying to pick up exactly two
cords from a bunch that aren't bagged.

| Hello!
I noticed that some sets like the Daily Bugle (76178-1) list the Doc Ock figure
with the arms included, but the one from the Monster Truck set (76174-1) didn't.
Could it be at least included as an alternate to the minifigure alone? It makes
more sense to me for the figure to be offered both with and without the mechanical
arms, but the listings including these are inconsistent.
Thanks for the consideration and any feedback about the situation.

Our current catalog guidelines for minifigures make the condition of handheld
items being added to the minifigure in the instructions the finishing point of
the minifigure build. So, for Doc Ock from
the figure is considered complete on page 5 before the arms are built and added
on the subsequent pages.
Cheers,
Randy

To add to this, 3 bricks' height works out to be just under 4 studs'
length (each brick in height is 6/5 a stud's length), which might be the
cause of the confusion
3 * 6/5 = 18 / 5 = 3.6

Thank you. I was just about to ask that. I need to be measuring doors by bricks,
not by studs on a plate... I think I must have forgotten that.

| Please make changes to the following inventory:

Comments from Submitter:
I measured the black string to be 75cm (from 2 new sets with no bin). However, I am only seeing 1 string in each set. I bought these 2nd hand and the 1x16 tech bricks were not polybagged, nor were the long electric cables. I suppose it's possible those parts were polybagged with a string, but since I am only seeing 1 string, I'm only requesting a delete/add for 1 string. I'll attach a pic of the polybag the string came in. Thanks!
|
Did some more digging. Inventory card shows 1 string:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1201259
|
I also found the photo of another cardboard that only shows one string. So I
will accept this change.
It's strange that the old request never fixed the quantity of the strings.
Any chance that the second string was an extra?
|
Each of the 2 sets I bought only had 1 in the polybag. Seems unlikely they would
have been bagged separately.
|
Large parts are known to come without being polybagged in some sets, especially
in the 90's. So I think these were never packaged in this set.

Using the "delete" action will cause the whole inventory entry to be
deleted, i.e. both strings. Using the action "change" instead, you can
change the quantity from 2 to 1.

D'oh! Makes sense, thanks
