in the plastic.
Other things may accelerate the reactions. And the reactions also occur all
by themselves.

Came here to say this.
so yeah. This.

| | When sorting my parts
I've noticed some blue and black versions that look different. The shade
of blue is a bit greenish (image may not show this clearly) and the shade of
blue is a bit greyish. They are easily identifiable by their color variation
but they can also be identified by some whitening/fraying along the edges. I
believe they're made from a softer plastic than usual. Are these vintage
or from certain special sets?

I do agree that vintage ones look different and seem to be of a different plastic.
I have never found a modern one broken either.

I use my tablet to pull orders and its meh, could be better, but I've used
my phone to check prices or sell rates when in a store sometimes and its awful.
I end up just doing "lego" + "set number" + "bricklink" in google to just skip
straight to the entry. It's faster to do it that way then through the BL
site, on my old phone at least.

Are these current colors with Lego?
Thanks in advance!!

The easy way is to ask yourself, "where did these come from?" The light grey
and old brown are only from "vintage" sets. So if you aren't seeing really
early 2000's sets or older, or its from new sets you can assume its the modern
colors.

| | If a set comes with instructions that are across multiple books please allow
listing each book separately. Many retailers are indicating a specific book
in the description which breaks all of the handy search tools. It also makes
it difficult as a buyer to be sure I'm getting full sets.

I sell lots of instructions so I would definitely love to see this implemented.
I'm always worried my IC customers are not reading the descriptions. I don't
want anyone disappointed.

Allow the buyer to choose to receive paperwork with the order, or to have the
order shipped without paperwork. The seller would then be obliged to follow the
buyer's selection.
thank you, Nita Rae

I voted no. If the buyer requests one from me I'll send it. Ink is expensive
and sometimes that extra paper bumps it up to the next ounce. I'd prefer
not to make a copy of a 500 lot order.

This this this.
It's already far too easy to have the buyer leave a note with the order.

| | Hi all!
Does anyone in the USA have set #5591 in an original box to reference for me?
I have an original box coming in the mail and the photos show the insert is white,
but I see that both sellers in Europe with one for sale have blue inserts
Just wondering if I/ they have the wrong insert tray, or if there is perhaps
a US/Europe variation on the color. The configuration of the trays looks identical
to me, so I really don't think its the wrong insert tray.
Thanks in advance.

I found numerous images online of new and used versions of this set that had
white inserts. I could post more, but I am sure the following will do. 
Cheers,

That's what I get for not googling it. It was late and I guess my brain wasn't
working.
Was this a normal thing back in the 90's? I didn't realize packaging
came in different colors like this
Thanks
