Hello

So... I purchased Lego's Pac-Man cabinet as well as LED lighting. I'm
also converting it to be motorized and I purchased the Powered Up 4-Port Hub
(85824) and a motor to run the game. As for the lighting, after all has been
installed, I'm left with a USB at the end to plug into a power source to
be manually switched. What I want to do is to plug it into the hub and have both
the motor and the LEDs controlled through the app. So as the title says, IS there
some type of adapter from the Powered Up plug to USB? Or even a train of adapters
that can lead up to a USB?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Store: 06 PIZZABRICK -SAVE-
Hello,

today something very bad happened.

An user made me an order, paid, and I shipped it.
Out of 233 parts, he declared that 1 was incorrect and 5 missing.

I went on my shop to see if I could reship the missing/wrong items but to my
surprise, none of them were available.

I don't want problems, so for a few bucks, I refunded those parts.

Probably, this buyer saw me weak because he then became demanding.

- I'm not happy with the refund. Either you send me half the shipping price
as a compensation, or I will cancel the entire order and ship it back on your
behalf.

Once noted that PayPal states that though he's entitled to, it's on HIS
behalf it became.

- No it's on your behalf. If before I said that I was ok with half shipping
price, now it's full shipping price, or I will cancel the order and open
a claim as "not as described".

I remarked that the parts not as described were refunded, but he said that he
was not needing the order as a whole.

I then went on his feedback profile and see that he already tried this trick
before. A seller paid him to ship the order back, and he never did.

Can we do something in these cases, or are we totally powerless?

I'm not speaking about the PayPal claim, I know I will win it.

But is there a way to defend ourselves from this kind of users?

When you edit the items when entering an inventory, is there a way to save progress
so that you dont have to do it all in one sitting or risk losing all your progress?

for
 
Part No: 55826c01  Name: Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Laser Crossbow
* 
55826c01 Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Laser Crossbow
Parts: BIONICLE {Pearl Light Gray}

These also use 3 LR41:
 
Part No: 55823c01  Name: Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Laser Drill
* 
55823c01 Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Laser Drill

* 
55827c01 Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Laser Axe
Parts: BIONICLE {Pearl Light Gray}

I also went through and checked the part numbers for the battery covers of each,
much like what's already noted on
 
Part No: 55828c01  Name: Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Energized Ice Sword
* 
55828c01 Bionicle Weapon Inika Light-up Energized Ice Sword
Parts: BIONICLE {Pearl Light Gray}

55823's is 56442
55824's is 56451
55825's is 56545
55826's is 56457
55827's is 56460

The number 56444 (noted on 55828 as being for the sword) appears on the black
plastic piece (electronic casing?), and is the same inside all six weapons. If
I were to guess, the numbers for the main part is behind the electronics, but
I'm not quite willing to tear these apart.

Also when displayed like this it's apparent that 55825c01 has a naming inconsistency,
listing the set number. Is there a preference there?

I have seen a few discussions on getting the 6 month average for a store's
inventory using BrickStore but my quesiton is different (I think) from the discussions
I have seen.

I am looking to upload new stock using XML and want to automtically set these
products to the 6 onth average. FIrstly i gues is it possbile to do this with
BrickStore automatically. I havent found a way but I'm certainly no expert.

My option was to try and download all parts with the 6 month average and the
join them together to populate the XML.

Are either of these possible via Bricklink, BrickStore or any other tool?

Thanks everyone

Just out of curiosity, how frequently do you, as owners of large stores (I'm
thinking 1,000+ orders) get messages from buyers informing you about missing
pieces or broken pieces in their order. I have had to send multiple of these
messages during my time on BL (I really hate doing it) and I wanted to know how
irritating it is on the receiving end.

We had season passes the first two years of LegoLand, CA's opening, my son,
daughter and I. Mostly as a place to hang out when bored, sometimes just somewhere
to eat our lunch outdoors. It was a very nice environment for the kids and I
in the earlier years of its opening. Very relaxed wonderful space for them especially.
Good memories

So almost inevitably, we became friends with some that worked there. In particular
was a woman that ran the injection molding display at the park, my kids speaking
Swedish and her being from and missing her family in Sweden, it just happened.
Anyway, we ended up with a lot of souvenirs she liked to give them, samples from
what the displayed LEGO injection molding machine processed throughout the day.
This was before our involvement with BL and the selling of LEGO, or really even
as enthusiastic fans of LEGO, and so they were just fun items for my son and
daughter to take home.

Cutting back towards the point: These items were produced on an official LEGO
injection molding machine by a LEGO affiliated employee. Would these unique items
hypothetically then be allowed into the BL catalog? I say hypothetically, as
we no longer have the parts. Tossed them long ago, actually

Now to the point: What does actually qualify as "officially" LEGO
and therefore allowed to be sold here?
Maybe more definitive guidelines would
be useful to all of within the secondary marketplace?

Just some (anecdotal backed) pondering

Hi team I'd like to make a suggestion. For those who are using Android/Chromebook
and Ipad, it would be great to have a version of Stud IO/Part designer that would
work on those devices unless it's already the case and I don't know it.

Hi everyone,

I bought a bulk of unsorted bricks, but I need help to identify the color of
two parts that seems that aren't molded in any existing color: in my photo
are the 2x6 plate (3795) and the inverted slope (52501).

The tile at left is in blue, the wedge at right is in dark blue

Thanks in advantage
