| Hi all,
I'm sure that alot of people may agree with me about this, but I do often wonder,
when I buy an opened set, that has sealed bags, how many bags there should be
for that particular set...
Why not have the number of sealed bags for each particular set listed next to
the dimensions of the set in the catalogue?
I'm sure this will be a great help to those who buy incomplete sets that have
some sealed bags and want to 'restore' the set to it's original glory.
Obviously some of the older sets will be a little hard to confirm, but as time
goes on, I'm sure, they will get confirmed...
Regards,
Paul

Older sets with the perforated, non-labeled bags are not universally consistent
in number and contents. They vary by region. European sets tend to have more
bags and less pieces per bag whereas US versions have less bags with more pieces
per bag.

Maybe we can have a 'Starting point', say perhaps, sets from the year 2000 or
maybe even earlier than this, IF it can be confirmed that the original set has
that particular number of bags.

There is no starting point tho. I went through this with grand emporium as it
was missing a bag.

This would be a problem. Because LEGO package sets in factories for different
markets (Asia, Europe and Americas) and sometimes LEGO would makes changes, such
as box size and number of bags.
