  This has probably been raised before, but is there anything that can be done
about these sellers who list figs from the 70s and 80s as new? It’s hard to
be 100% sure they’re lying (even with feedback claiming buyers were sent used
as new), but how much circumstantial evidence is enough? I saw a seller today
who had some very rare castle figs listed as new, so I checked his parts list
and, wouldn’t you know it, some of the exclusive parts from those sets are listed
in used condition with damage noted. Really?

I’ve also sold a used fig to someone before and saw them list it as new a week
after I shipped it.

Why bother having a condition if you can just lie and there are no consequences?

there should defiantly be action taken against that. I've also on multiple
occasions ordered Minifigure parts (cant remember if it also figures) and received
clearly used parts

Not always. We had twice got scratched minifig torsos from the vey top feedback
store. Since our purchases were in 200 to 500 pieces, it's not likely they
are USED. They should check their inventory more careful though.

trust me the ones I'm talking about were very used (cracks, bitemarks, "dirt",
etc) but yes there is a balance. new parts to some extent all have wear. usually
its very minor but most of us have seen a few parts we take out of a new set
that only belong in the garbage can


Agree. Sorry I just mean some sellers may not know their inventory was flawed.
When I got 500 torsos all with fine scratches, I didn't think they were used.
But if I bought just a few, I probably did.

We got our share from new lego sets, from broken to misprint. Just found a set
of alphabet. From the misprint, I'd say there are 2 M and 1 W. 😜

It is similar to buying M & M's. Around 50% of them are falsified as they
clearly show 'W'......

/Asger


You didn't get it 😆. When printed perfectly centered, M and W looks the
same. For that misprinted set, all letters shifted to top, you can tell 2 Ms
and 1 W 🙃🙂
