  How do you tell the difference between Dark Grey and Dark Bluish Grey bricks?
I want to make sure I purchase ones that match what I already have.

It's basically modern vs "vintage". If you are new(er) to lego you probably
have the bluish versions.

It is currently in the process of being inventoried.

Cheers,

Question, sorry if the answer is obvious, I haven't been in every corner
of this site.

Is there a way to know what sets are in progress of being inventoried vs what
ones still need volunteers?

Yes

Haha

May I suggest to also add gram (beside ounce) to your shipping table for international
shipment. Makes it easier if you don't need to use google to get an overview
of the weights

Hahaha, that is a good suggestion. I forget that not everyone uses "freedom units"


Funny I've never thought of that because I've often had the same frustration
when buying from European sellers, but in reverse.

  I am after a few pieces to complete a few kits and am going from one checkout
to another, then to another and then cancelling the orders (before payment) because
the vendors haven't got the "Request a Quote" provision set up.
Clearly it would save a lot of stuffing around if you know the full cost incl
P&H before hand.
Even better - there should be a little icon or something next to the vendors
name to indicate whether they send quotes or not so you don't have to go
through the checkouts to find out right at the end.
This is what I'm experiencing in Australia


I like this idea.

My store allows for quotes and very few people use it. (Except that one dude
in Korea that keeps asking for quotes and then cancelling, we are on three now
I think lol)

I do get lots of messages from buyers asking for quotes even though I have some
pretty direct shipping tables. So it's obvious they haven't even made
a cart yet.

So all in all I think the quote system is underused or misunderstood by buyers.
