I have a buyer questioning Trans-Clear 2343

 
Part No: 2343  Name: Minifigure, Utensil Goblet
* 
2343 Minifigure, Utensil Goblet
Parts: Minifigure, Utensil {Trans-Clear}

Said they have a through hole w/o Lego stamp.

We don't have any more in stock, so opened a QE set, it has 28657 on it.
Checked a few used in our MOC, they have a not through hole and a © with batch
date.

The note said "This part has at least three variants with and without bottom
holes and a band at the base of the stem". Is there old Trans-Clear 2343 with
a through hole and no stamp, or they are off brand?

Thank you.

We have plenty. which are closed and open and with all colors. I guess it was
from the time were they considered it a chocking hazzard and left a hole in them.
Though it has been shown that they're easier to remove when the don't
have a hole. At least it was thw case for minifig heads.

regards

Thank you so much for confirming this, Christian.

Off-brand got into inventory is the shop's worst nightmare. This is first
time we got such question and it's from a customer I trust.

I checked our purchasing history and found most of them came from a bulk purchase
last year from a 5k+ feedback shop. I'm about to put it on our least favorite
list and never purchase from them again, thought I'd better check if they
could be an old stock.
