Hi all,
My first post as I am new on here, apologize if I have posted this in the wrong
group, so I need help with the Lego Control Center, I have purchased one that
has a custom UK AC Adaptor attached, however after opening it the AC wires are
taped to the 2 blue wires separately inside the control center, is this safe
to use?
I have also attached a photo of the adaptor, please can someone advise me if
this setting is correct and safe, as here in the UK it is so hard to find version
2, so I am left with x2 Version 1 controllers and to be eco-friendly I would
rather not use batteries.
Thanks
Vee

Check if the cable are soldered together or just twisted inside the tape.
If they are twisted use some thing like in the image to make it safe. (used in
many cars)

Thank you, ill order those small parts

Ah. So...I could just use the plain 553 entry to add that part in Set 22011 to
my inventory -- assuming that entry also pertains to any 553 having axle
holes -- and no need for a CCR?
Hoping that this is the case.

then maybe the order can be sent with a Flaimngo.

I noticed that 553b (aka Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top, C = Magenta or 71) is without
either catalog entry or image. I was about to submit a Cat Change Request and
then I remembered the ongoing headaches regarding the Variant Project as detailed
in this message:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1451828
So, is the image and entry merely and temporarily 'down' due to Variant
Project implementation? Or is 553b entry actually gone-gone and a CCR needs
to be completed in order to make 553b part of 553? Note that there are currently
only two catalog entries for Brick, Round 2 x 2 Dome Top. One is while
553a is listed as "without Bottom Axle Holder".
FWIW, the 553 in Set 11022 has a blocked open stud.
I'm uncertain what action to take, or if I even should.

The inventory is correct as is since 553b is gone, gone as of April 12:

As Nubs is showing you, or the old school method by adding a comma followed by
the desired color ID number onto the part number within the brackets, as I do.

Is it: (left bracket)p=553, c=?(right bracket). Just guessing here.

When one posts a Forum message that includes a Part Macro tag, a problem window

So, what's the format, please?

Check if the cable are soldered together or just twisted inside the tape.
If they are twisted use some thing like in the image to make it safe. (used in
many cars)

I don't like it, only because if a customer has an issue with quality
or packaging for shipping I would like for them to contact me directly. They
could provide photos of anything broken or damaged in route. Perhaps one day
when my store is big enough I will feel more comfortable with drop shipping.

If it is shipped outside your own country, you will still have to add customs

This can only be fixed by replacing the minifigure in the set inventory. But
the correct minifigure (with 973pb0280c01) must first be added to the catalog.
You can submit it here:
https://www.bricklink.com/wantedCatalog.asp?catType=M
The number would be pi198.

I didn't think that a set bought USED was allowed to be used as proof to

We found out long time ago (based on original set contents) that 10040 had the
torso with black buckle, but we couldn't correct the inventory due to the

I have 142 boxes (48 different) available. Since they are flattened/broken down
shipping is not bad for a quantity of them. I will also work on the price for

What size boxes are you looking for? I've got shelves full of stuff, some
cheap, some very expensive. Are you looking for something to use in a project
or for reselling?
|
On the smaller side of things and I’m not sure what project but a project and
not reselling them
|
I'll get over to the storage locker and see what I have over there still.
Parted several hundred sets once upon a time, and have most of those boxes still
around. Won't be this weekend, but probably next.

| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Delete 2 Part x77 Black String, Cord (Undetermined Type)
* Add 1 Part x77ac75 Black String, Cord Thin 75cm
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!

I believe it's allowed, one wishes that buyers would be a bit more honest

But a nothing says a dropshipper couldn't order from bricklink. Besides there

Yes, to be clear a BrickLink seller can't dropship since BL sellers can only
list what they actually have in inventory (maybe an exception can be made for
inventory mistakes, etc.). But there isn't anything stopping people from
listing on e.g., eBay, and then dropshipping from BL.
|
Yes exactly this ^
Bricklink doesn't want people selling what they don't have to hand here
because that can create a bad buyer experience. However it will be of little
concern to Bricklink if the buyer is shopping from another platform and the goods
are drop shipping from Bricklink
|
The only time we step in is if the dropshipper is a professional buyer and starts
giving sellers a hard time about orders that didn't go well. Otherwise, we
tolerate them - because a lot of our sellers appreciate the business.
|
Yes personally I'm happy to take orders from drop shippers but for my own
sales I prefer to hold the inventory else things can get messy with sourcing
as well as jeopardizing own feedback when relying too heavily on the service
and accuracy of others

| Hallo an alle!
Ich habe einige Bestellungen über mehrere Shops getätigt und von jedem über die
Messages die Rechnung bekommen. Wie kann ich die so ausdrucken, damit die in
einem vernünftigen Layout gedruckt werden?
Derzeit sehe ich nur die Möglichkeit im HTML Bildschirm mit der MAus über das
Context Menu den Punkt "DRUCKEN..." auszuwählen. Allerdings bekomme ich
dann in der Voransicht den kompletten Bildschirm inkl. den Bricklink Menu im
Kopf als auch alle Links in der Bricklink Fusszeile mitgedruckt. Die Hälfte des
vertikalen Bildschirmes ist auf der linken Seite leer und auf der rechten Seite
werden die Rechnungsdaten angezeigt. Allerdings wird der gesamte Rechnungstext
an der rechten Randseite abgeschnitten, unabhängig davon, ob ich im Porträt oder
Querformat drucke und somit ist die Rechnung unvollständig und für das Finanzamt
wirklos.
Danke im voraus für eure Hilfe

The spam posts tend to get removed really quite fast, at least at the times of
day when I see them (and report them). Links only work if people click on them.
If nobody clicks on them then there is no motivation to post more. Yet still
they post and post.

Yes, it is allowed. If it is a dropshipper, you may get a nice repeat customer.
Also, just because the buyer's info is different doesn't automatically
make it a dropship. It could be a seller short of parts on an order who wants
you to ship the missing parts directly to their customer.

Hmm, to put these arches on the ‘manor’ part, you need other small parts that
are not in the inventory: a 1x2 brick, 2x 1x1 plates and 2x (1 or 2)x3 plates….
You could do without the (1 or 2)x3 plates with the Extra 1x2 and 2x2….
And you can get one 2x3 if you can use the (1 and 2)x10 plates instead of the
(1x2)x8 ones on the walkway… but it doesn’t seem like they did that on the pic.

And there’s already three LG plates (a 1x10, a 2x2, and a 2x10) in Regular that

Yes, we know that inventory needs some work.

You can't list items you don't own, but that is in the sellers control.
1.2.8 Exact quantity: The quantity of the item that you are listing for sale
must not be greater than the quantity you have physical possession of in the
country in which your BrickLink store is registered. Drop shipping is not permitted.
The only exception to this is a custom fan magazine that has to be pre-ordered
and the Buyer is made aware of this in the item description.
But a nothing says a dropshipper couldn't order from bricklink. Besides there

the details it needs to remove them.
In the past it would be sorted overnight but it's been about 2 weeks I believe.
I'm scared to open a new ticket in case it goes back to the end of the queue
again

Can an admin please look at this.

| I received an order from a recurring customer.
This time, the order has a different shipping address, a different name, and
the buyer says it is a gift and I should not specify any price or add any invoice
or bill to the envelope.
I clearly sense a dropshipping case here.
Is it allowed on bricklink?

How much data space would it take to have two catalogs? One for detailed data

The problem isn’t space, it’s consistency and workload.
Basically, you’re doubling the workload.
If you make a change in one of the catalogues, should it be echoed on the other
one? To which extent? Can that be automatized?
In the software world, that’s called a fork (external / by another team) or a
branch (internal / by the same team).
We have tools and procedures to follow and “port” (transfer, apply) changes between
branches / versions / forks (‘diffs’ and ‘patches’ and ‘version control system’
(git, bitkeeper, mercurial…)).
And those tools are good and ‘smart.’ They can work around other changes and
differences that shouldn’t change (and (good) devs are lazy: everything that
can be automatized is automatized).
But we ALWAYS need to check the changes. The changes may apply without a hitch…
but they may break the program because they contradict an older change. That
can also be automatized, to some extent. But it’s work again and you can never
predict everything so you always need to check.
Duplicating a database and the changes on the database can be automitized in
the same way: changes are just instructions, like a program. So the same porting
solutions & problems apply: Should that change be applied? Can it be applied?
Should another change be applied instead? And you always need to check, check,
check.
Also, you first need to record these instructions. AFAIK, BrickLink’s changelogs
aren’t complete / sufficient.
TL;DR: It’s the same as the work done by Rebrickable: another catalogue, with
conversion tables, with changes to follow / apply or not, with errors or misses…,
and with a full team to manage it.
It could be a bit simpler and you could save a bit by keeping it inside BrickLink,
but that won’t remove most of the work needed.
Another possibility is to handle that in only one “catalogue,” with two (or more!)
different ways to present its info. The work would be done only once, in the
more detailed catalogue, and there would be mechanisms to hide the details to
the users. But that’s the same as the “umbrella part” solution: you need to
change the whole structure of the database and the way the site works. That
can’t be patched onto what exists now (which is already patched enough with spaghetti
and sauce as it is).

| | Hello,
I'm looking at building up the parts for the UCS Y-Wing (2nd edition, 75181).
I already have set 75172 which is the play scale Y-Wing which I'm looking
at breaking down to give me some of the parts for the UCS scale version.
Is their a way, without going through it line by line, to part out the pieces
from the playscale set into my UCS wanted list?
Many thanks,

Hi,
To part out a set: hover over the white, heart-shaped “Want” icon and click “Part
Out”: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/wanted/partout.page
But you can’t “apply” a Wanted List (or an inventory) to another one on BrickLink,
to remove the parts you already have. You need to use third-party tools, like
BrickStore (application) or Rebrickable (website).

In the two screenshots it looks like one shop is pricing in EUR and that price

in NOK, which is converted in EUR and is sorted incorrectly. Exchange rates are
the same 0.9911.63 is same as 2.3527.50
I have only noticed this behaviour with shop's from Norway. Why is this?

NOK, Nokia Oyj shares?
Okay, I get it, Norwegian Krone Euro conversions have been somewhat wonky for
reasons outside the sphere of influence of BL and third party, and beyond whatever
site issue there might also be.

The conversion rates are just fine. Both listings are correctly converted. To
me this looks like a sorting issue in BL.

Ah ha! On the alternate build shown on the instructions, we can see a 3rd arch
used (and we can infer a 4th one on the other side).
So, according to the rules, at least these two should be Regular 🤔
|
And there’s already three LG plates (a 1x10, a 2x2, and a 2x10) in Regular that
are not needed for the main build and that are not visible on the alternate.
The plot thickens 🤔

How do you disconnect it? I tried closing all sessions on my PayPal account and
