Both should be regular because they are both used in some of the alternate models on the back of the box.

Yes, fill out the manual section, but a few seconds after you go to the next
screen it will ask if you want to use Lego's data and when you say yes it
dumps it all in. It is the list of possible pieces you can order from Lego when
your set is incomplete and it often leaves a few pieces out, but it gets you
a long way down the road.

They are both in the catalog. If you are talking about providing inventories,
no one has them reserved or pending.

Thanks for the info; yes, I was referring to inventories. I've since discovered
how to figure this question out on my own. I'll look into providing them.

Is there a way to submit an XML file using the Lego part+color codes as used
in the set instruction inventories, instead of itemid and color?

E.g., using "3x 614101" instead of "3x white 4073"?

Not that I know of. But if you just open the thing up it is going to practically
fill the whole form out from Lego.com's info. You'll need to add the
stickers and extras and check some part variants, perhaps add a few new pieces,
and then check that everything is there. You aren't going to need to type
in every part.


I wasn't aware of that, it does sound like a lot less work. Does it appear
as an option here after I reserve a set for inventory?

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvAdd.asp

I apologize for my ignorance, I've not tried to help out before.

This needs to be a priority, sellers are also buyers. There are way too many
complaints in the forum from new members about this, it will drive many of them
to sell (and buy) on other sites.

I would add that many other urgent help desk requests are taking too long, it
recently took 2 weeks to get an account merged that we requested whereas it used
to take a day or two. Appreciate that the issue is not the individual(s) responsible
but there is a lack of resources allocated to help desk; this is going to hurt
the site and needs to be addressed...sorry to link this but if BL can afford
to allocate someone to building a catalog for Brickarms then perhaps they should
take a step back and look at the core business 1st.

I have already seen a store opening on the other site because they have given
up their attempt to open a store here.

A point made, As many have seen for almost a month now in Help Desk I have been
putting as much effort as possible to go through the hundreds of verification
requests. Before I was brought on the team it was only Admin_Jaclyn, now I am
here to assist as well. We apologize and appreciate your patience.

So I ended up finding 288 of these. They are in all great used condition. If
anyone would like to buy these to sell in their store I could take serious offers
and sell them to you via the proper channels on BL. I'm not going to give
them away. Maybe you can make US$1.00 profit per brick. Or maybe this is a long
shot.

  I was an active seller on this site 15 years ago. I recently have began to buy
new sets and lots as my son is 4 years old and he seems to enjoy it. I like the
creator houses from the past couple of years.

Anyway, I bought a 40 lb lot from a garage sale last summer ($120). I've
been wanting to get rid of it as we just don't have the room and my son isn't
ready for the types of pieces in this lot.

I noticed is has an unusual number of DARK GREEN 1x3 bricks, maybe 100 to 150!
In the past thirty minutes or so I have discovered that this piece is quite rare
and evidently worth about $6.00 A PIECE(?)! I see it was only available in the
10133 BNSF Locomotive. It came with two.

How is it that I would have so many in this box? Obviously they did not own 50+
Locomotive sets based on the parts in the lot. I really believe I have the dark
green parts. They are not regular green, sand green, teal, or lime, and they
are certainly not a clone brick. At a glance, I have a 2x2 invert slope, 4x8
plate and a forestman style large plant piece that are the same color.

Could they have been in a LEGO Store pick-a-brick? When I have time, possibly
tomorrow I will see how many there actually are. Any thought or comments would
be appreciated.

  This part appears in 59 different colors. Why it's not in the top of the
list of Catalog Statistics Parts Appearing in Sets in Most Colors?

Because its attached to a Torso and not a separate part in the sense that its
traded as such, they only sell as replacement parts or if someone is building
a custom minifig.

I would say they most certainly came from a LEGO store pick-a-brick. Or someone
who ordered them from LEGO direct for a custom project. LEGO produces the parts
to make sets in bulk. When the sets are retired/discontinued, the surplus parts
sometimes end up in the LEGO store PaB section. This has been the case with
certain CMF parts as well. I have also ended up with unique parts in large quantities
from bulk lots that were only minimally available via a certain set. And it
seems you got a very nice, very lucky score on this one. Congrats!

The color is really Dark Green, so you do not have to doubt it.

Probably this person has ever bought at a LEGO Store pick-a-brick.
Nice find!

... But it sold a total of 79 during the last 6 months, so you probably will
have problems selling yours for that price, especially since you have no other
bricks for sale.

Maybe you are better of selling it in bulk to someone here

Personally, I'd just use a 1x1 and 1x2 dark green brick combo for $0.12 total
to achieve the same result.

It should be the same when sellers have a stupid rule similar to described.
If a seller wants to have a stupid rule so be it, but it should be more obvious
to the buyer when selecting quantities to purchase.

When a store has that option enabled, it will show up on that grey line next
to the green cart button. Even then, it is always best to read through a stores
terms before preparing a cart.

Sounds a bit like this store has the rule only in text without having the option
enabled :/
In that case, I would just go ahead and place the order in that case, screw them,
they can't just waste your time like that. They can choose to either process
or accept non positive feedback

Do you mean the average lot value is $1, or that every lot must be a multiple
of $1 (or at least $1)?

Average lot values are common now, and should be stated at the top of the page
in a store if the seller has correctly implemented them.
