Please read the note at the foot of the inventory. There are 2 versions of instructions
fo this set. For your version, substitute all the lines in the alternate section
with Match Number 99 with the lines in the Regular items section with Match Number
99.

I am really disappointed with the inventory of set 8097-1
My part-out slave promised me all the bricks a while back but was running late,
and so on Friday I already sold 2x of "Dark Bluish Gray Slope 18 4 x 2 " of which
there are, according to BL, 6 of in each set. Turns out there is none... not
ONE !!!
Yesterday evening after a weekend that felt more like a workweek I arrived at
her place, asking for my urgent bricks on 2 ALREADY PAID orders I spent a couple
of hours on ... and it looks like the (6x) 18 4 x 2 are somehow replaced by
at first glance (4x) 33 3 x 2.
So I had to make a phone call and ask a BIG FAVOR to get the parts from the biggest
AFOL I know, drive 15 miles extra this morning, under office hours. And promise
him I would return them. So now I HAVE TO buy some new sets to part out containing
this part to make good on the promise. Meehhhh...
Anyway long story short : not amused ....
PS : just venting
but still: WTF is up with "np1989 (4) inventoried this Set on May 7, 2010, inventory
last updated on Jan 21, 2015. CPgolfaddict (2014) confirmed accuracy of this
inventory on Feb 15, 2011. (source: Sealed Set Contents)"

This is why we need a big notice that alerts sellers to any inventory note before
they part out a set.
Please see the note on this inventory at the bottom of the page:
An alternate version of instructions for this set is represented in the Alternate
section by match number 99.
There are two different versions of the set, and this has been painstakingly
studied and the inventory adjusted accordingly:
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogInvChangeItem.asp?itemType=S&itemNo=8097-1&viewDate=Y&viewStatus=1
The version of the set you have has the parts that are listed with a 99 (see
right side of page) in the Alternate section. Which means if you parted out the
set and didn't choose these alternates, you have got a much bigger problem
than one missing lot. You need to check your stock against *every* lot in the
inventory with a match number of 99, both Regular and Alternate.
To avoid this problem in the future, please read the inventory note before parting
out any set.

Thanks for the clarification, I was not aware of this.
Now I will pay extra attention, hope these WILD aberrations only happen with
older sets...
( my way of work with my part-out slave is );
1. Drop off 2 or 3 different types of sets each in 3 to 8 fold at her place
2. When deadline approaches: Part out all sets into my BL inventory, items of
which I have less than 300 pcs as StockRoom B. Then when I feel I am going to
get my bricks, they go into my shop.
3. In the meanwhile I compile a printed list with images for all sets blended
together, based on my own excelfile, MACROtized/ordered according to "My Remarks"
so it can easily be stored it in the right labeled box A-Z without running needless
miles in scattered ways 
In short, the Big Plus with my method:I get everything in order according to
my specific storage system.
Now I should alter my method and keep it in Stockroom B a while longer I guess
... and again extra work in checking what inventory I got. Too bad, I'm really
starting to believe The LEGO Company could be the Evil Empire

This business of alternate versions started in the early 1970's and is still
very much in practice today. I am almost finished with a Brickset list showing
all known redesigns, and though I haven't found any from 2016 (yet), there
were several from last year:

Always interesting to see how different people use the system. I, too, part out
into a stockroom and then I "release" each lot into my store as I physically
place it in storage.
But, like I mentioned above, whatever the seller's system, I would *always*
recommend reading the inventory note before partout.

| I tried to follow what you were writing in both posts, and I failed miserably.
Feel free to ignore this question as it has nothing to do with the inventory
issues in this set. I am just curious -
| | | | | | My part-out slave promised me all the bricks a while back but was running late,
and so on Friday I already sold 2x of "Dark Bluish Gray Slope 18 4 x 2 " of which
there are, according to BL, 6 of in each set. Turns out there is none... not
ONE !!!
Yesterday evening after a weekend that felt more like a workweek I arrived at
her place, asking for my urgent bricks on 2 ALREADY PAID orders I spent a couple
of hours on ... and it looks like the (6x) 18 4 x 2 are somehow replaced by
at first glance (4x) 33 3 x 2.
So I had to make a phone call and ask a BIG FAVOR to get the parts from the biggest
AFOL I know, drive 15 miles extra this morning, under office hours. And promise
him I would return them. So now I HAVE TO buy some new sets to part out containing
this part to make good on the promise. Meehhhh...

So it sounds you uploaded a parted-out 8097-1, but you didn't actually have
that set or the parts in your possession. You had an order come in for parts
supposedly in this part-out, and then you went to "her place" (and you refer
to her as your "part-out slave") to get these parts?
| | ( my way of work with my part-out slave is );
1. Drop off 2 or 3 different types of sets each in 3 to 8 fold at her place
2. When deadline approaches: Part out all sets into my BL inventory, items of
which I have less than 300 pcs as StockRoom B. Then when I feel I am going to
get my bricks, they go into my shop.
|
"When the deadline approaches" - what deadline would that be? At that point you
do a part-out, and "when you feel you are going to get your bricks" they go into
your shop. I am trying to visualize this process, but again fail miserably. Are
you saying you move the items from your stockroom to your shop when you feel
they might physically arrive (presumably from your slave)?
| | 3. In the meanwhile I compile a printed list with images for all sets blended
together, based on my own excelfile, MACROtized/ordered according to "My Remarks"
so it can easily be stored it in the right labeled box A-Z without running needless

Now I should alter my method and keep it in Stockroom B a while longer I guess
... and again extra work in checking what inventory I got.
|
I am sorry, but not checking what inventory you actually received before putting
it up for sale in your shop is bad, even if part-out inventories are correct.
To me it sounds your process hinges on way too many assumptions and "feelings".
Not trying to be confrontational, just trying to give some honest advice.
Niek.
