I know that, you know that, but the catalog pages (for either of them) represent
all three as studs.

My point exactly: WE know that but the website (catalogue, IC info…) is obscure,
confusing, and inconsistent.

Remember that LEGO bricks are measured in lego studs, whereas Duplo bricks are
measured in duplo studs. So while both are 2x2x1 in studs, they are measured
in different stud units.
The metric m.easurements make sense, as the duplo piece is 2x bigger in all dimensions
than the LEGO brick.

All you say is correct and makes sense. But IC does not use studs, it (apparently)
is using mm, and those values are being obscured from view. Why ?

I think your suggestion above opens the door toward couriers, which in turn for
some buyers places courier, their packing, and their shipping responsibilities
on sellers, as opposed to ending seller responsibility at courier receipt.
I recognize couriers' value as well as the added risk they can present, and
have no solution at this point.
I do not like things big brother-ish, however admittedly would prefer to not
have the final destination and possible re-packing or breaking down of something
I've packed be secrets.

This is a poorly thought out suggestion. As it is written, it should be tossed.

They are described as Statuette, all of them, so it easier to type this word

This is the second mold, see above and if you try to call it "black SW soldiers"
Harry Potter fans will argue with you because black one was used recently as
Dementor in Harry Potter set
and trans light blue was Palpatine hologram
.. I just want them in one simple category like we

there will be many and who knows if I even find them all. Simple sollution is
to make a group for them and add them to the minifigure section. They clearly
represent minifigures in a micro version. Even as utesil it´s fine as long as
they can be filtered all at once.
|
So they can be filtered all at onec use word "Statuette"
|
Oh nice thanks for the hint "Statuette" I would have never guessed this ..
it´s also the problem right? and I am a LEGO builder for over 20 years ...
this part category/name/description has space for improvement as I think it will
get very popular with more sets including them and soon I think they can form
a wide range of micro figures and lots of MOCs will include them (the very reason
I need them too - armies of them).

Hi,
I stated that associating emails with countries would be messy (i.e. I agree
with you), and I was not supporting the original suggestion.
But instead I wondered if BrickLink could verify member addresses against IP
address locations. A recent transaction indicates that PayPal is doing something
like this.

LEGO stopped producing Brown in 2006 as you will see in the color chart via the
link provided in the first answer. Both Green and Bright Green are still in
production and are considered distinct colors. Bright Green is not a replacement
to Green like Reddish Brown was to Brown.

Those parts are called stickered counterparts. You can find some of them for
this set in the inventory. The others have not yet been added to the catalog.
To add them to your store inventory as official parts you would need to first
add them to the BrickLink catalog. Otherwise, you may sell them as custom items.

Those parts are called stickered counterparts. You can find some of them for
this set in the inventory. The others have not yet been added to the catalog.
To add them to your store inventory as official parts you would need to first
add them to the BrickLink catalog. Otherwise, you may sell them as custom items.

That's kind of you, but I do still have the one I used to make the catalog
entry. I found it in a new Duplo set from around that same time.
No instructions for the set, though? The set has an instructions entry. If
it didn't come with instructions, which certainly seems likely to have been
the case, then we need to get rid of the instructions entry for the set.
There's one seller with instructions for sale right now, but that was likely
from blindly parting out the set.

Yeah, no instructions. And what would the instructions say? You can't build
anything out of this without a tub of bricks.

The instructions entry has been removed.

Hi
yes, that's possible, just add it to the catalog.
Start here: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogImageAdd.page?itemType=I
Only: did it came in the first version from 2005?
Or only in the 2008 version?
Or in both versions?
What's the date on your sheet? And what is the code printed?
It looks like there were more sets with extra sheets at that time
check here set 7248 with the extra info on the instructionspage:
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?I=7248-1#T=S&O={"rpp":"500","iconly":0}

OK Jangbricks video review confirms your findings
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEfzS34MrB0 time 3:58

I didn't look at the set review, but I can confirm that the set was sealed
when I parted it out.
I sold the older version of that part a couple of days ago, and when I went to
find it, I had the newer version.
Which is why I said that I'd 'worked it out', because I didn't
have that part new within my inventory, and the only set that it came from was
the one I'd parted out.
But, anyway, you've just confirmed it, and I was able to get the correct
version from my unbuilt UCS Slave one, to ensure that my customer got the correct
version.
Regards,
Paul

I bet part 47994 never appeared in this set. Keeping it in the regular items
section is probably unwarrented.
Randy

Hm
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1109894

They look squared off in that video review to me. I don't know why you are
seeing differently. The last time I saw 47994 in a set was a few years ago, before
the 2015 Ninjago waves came out.
Randy
|
Yes I was blind this time. Agreed an I corrected it. Now only part 19159 is in
inventory and old one has been deleted. Last appearance of 47994 is 2015 in database
now.
Thanks

| Each seller chooses the payment methods they want to accept. There are many that
offer alternatives to PayPal such as bank transfers, Stripe etc. If you have
an issue using PayPal then just check what other methods the seller has set up
before ordering.

| Isnt it time Bricklink was to offer other payment methods , we used to have our
church group on paypal then a couple of year back they said no ,you now have
to nominate a single person . if that person dies or goes on holiday or any other
reason our buying and selling comes to a stop (unless we use amazon ) we are
currently going through a situation where our account has been put on hold while
paypal investigate £1.01p the reason why i could go on and on,i just so happened
that we had placed 3 orders with brick link and a purchase with ebay , so the
question s how do you pay , one of the orders was paid via Pingit .its becoming
classed as restrictive practice will a government in one country take action
against this ,i can see it happening , so is it no paypal no bricklink !!!!!!!!!!!!!answers
on a toilet roll please

The 'note to seller' is also in the order confirmation email.
Do you read the confirmation email?
Perhaps the order of the order details page should be customizable. Then the
notes can be moved to the top between the Details and parts section.

That's a good idea I think. On the internet we are kind of programmed to
completely disregard mumbo jumbo at the bottom of pages (like "© 2018 BrickLink
Limited. All rights reserved. Some LEGO® sets contain small parts that are NOT
suitable for and may pose a hazard to children under 3 years of age. LEGO® DUPLO®
sets have larger pieces which are specially designed for children under 3. LEGO®
is a trademark of the LEGO Group of companies which does not sponsor, authorize,
or endorse this site. Use of this website constitutes acceptance of the Terms
Of Service and Privacy Policy."). Something above the parts list would be much
more noticable, and also the message may affect how the order needs to be sorted/packed
so it's kind of a bummer if you forget to scroll down and read it only when
you reach the end of order picking
