| The optional column in the Orders Received page where a tracking number can be
added is not activated per default, most sellers (I assume – like me until recently)
don’t know that this option exists, so they won’t use it.
On the buyer’s side, I am not sure how many know that feature and look for the
TrackingNo by opening the Order Summary.
Due to constantly tightened rules for sellers (by Paypal, Bricklink) tracked
shipping will be more or less standard in the future. Thus a default TrackingNo
column should be available for both sellers and buyers in their overview of orders.
This should improve communication between buyer and seller and avoid unnecessary
requests.

| For me personally the answer is easy: Your store doesn't ship to me. So extending
at least to all EU countries would help.
First thing you have to ask when opening a shop is: why should a potential buyer
choose my shop and not any other?
About 800 lots in the inventory might be a lot (!) of work when starting from
scratch but it is not very much compared to other shops.
To be successful with a small shop you have to consider in particular:
1) Price: most sellers orient on average prices and many of them have a larger
assortment or other benefits. To compete with them your prices must be significantly
below average.
2) Rare parts: if you have not only common items but also rare parts to offer
your shop is more likely be chosen.
Minimum buy limit and shipping costs seam reasonable to me.
The amount of additional charges (Paypal) should be described more in detail.
Hope it helps & good luck with your shop.

| All these parts were produced for ca. 40 years and, as been said, older ones
often don`t have any printing. The printing may also change, it can be a mold
number, part number, ‘LEGO’ – with or without the copywrite symbol (©), just
the © - if there is no room for more - or a combination of all these.

Thanks for removing the deletion mark.
Here are photos of 39c01 in Red and in White:
|
I could not find any in yellow.
After making these photos and viewing them I noticed a difference in mold types.
39c01 has a slight bulge at the sides to fix the glass, both white and red ones.
This photo shows it (39 without glass on the left vs. 39c01 with glass on the
right):

I originally marked it for deletion because I didn't believe it existed.
All we had were rendered images, no photos.
Could you please submit a nice photo of this part in the colors that you have?

| And here is the part which is to be deleted from the catalog:
Maybe I should have posted this picture before to avoid confusion.
There are a lot of these parts listed also by other sellers and I can't understand
why it should be removed from the catalog. This part also exist in white and
is not marked for deletion.

| No, it does not have an extended lip, it is like this (39) but with glass, which
looks quite unused for the 2 pieces I have got, like it was assembled before
going to the stores (whatever set it was originally part of).

| For whatever reason 39c01 (Window 1 x 1 x 1 with Glass) is marked for deletion
from the catalog and thus cannot be inventoried any more. Window and glass have
to be inventoried separately. I have got 2 pieces and no idea how to separate
the glass from the window without doing damage on these. So what I will do in
the end is listing them as custom item: "Window 1 x 1 x 1 with Glass". Does this
make sense?
BTW: there is (as one example) 2493c01 - 'Window 1 x 4 x 5 with Trans-Clear
Glass' in the catalog, a combination of window and glass where the glass
can be easily removed. Why is this item still in the catalog and not marked for
deletion?

| On the sticker sheet there are 5 small 'MD' stickers: One (with additional
'Danmarks Internationale Mejeri' to be placed at the back of the vehicle,
two (with additional small 'MD FOODS' print) for the doors (parts 3821pb014
and 3822pb014) and one plain 'MD' sticker for the vehicle's front
(part 3010pb132). So there is only one small plain 'MD' sticker left
for the minifig which can be either placed on the front or back of the torso.
Instructions show both variants - on the front page respectively in picture (13).
The catalog lists:
minifig mdf001 as 'MD Foods - White Torso (Sticker on both sides), Green
Legs, White Cap'
torso assembly 973pb0496c01 as 'White Torso MD Foods Logo Pattern on Both
Sides (Sticker) / White Arms / Yellow Hands'
torso 973pb0496 as 'Torso MD Foods Logo Pattern on Both Sides (Sticker)
/ White Arms / Yellow Hands'
So as there are not enough stickers for both sides and it is not obvious from
the instructions which is the correct placement – front or back of torso? - I
would suggest to just remove the term 'on both sides' in the title of
these inventory parts.

| This maybe is thought to be a minor change but I am afraid to say that I am not
very happy about the new layout. It does not improve anything but needs a lot
more screen area, so on medium sized screens (tablets, notebooks) one has to
scroll around to see the entire page (with 20 orders per page). BTW the 'View
Old Layout' is useless for it switches to the new one as soon as I do anything
on the site.

| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Add 2 Part 3069b Black Tile 1 x 2 with Groove (Alternate) (match ID 1)
* Change 2 Part Black 3069a Tile 1 x 2 without Groove {match ID 0 to 1}
Comments from Submitter:
I have two copies of this set which I got assembled and in mint condition, so it is very likely that all parts are originally from this set (European, enclosed instructions say "Made in Germany"). Both copies include tiles with groove. Since I cannot prove that a minor quanitity of sets (or even no sets) with 3069a exist = 3069b as alternate part
