Speaking of usernames, I find it interesting that a zero feedback user who recently
signed up is submitting a complicated change request for obscure technical details
and then not bothering to comment on it.

My username does not have a hyphen and the second word is capitalized: StormChaser.
As for the way I treat these kinds of cases, read this message from less than
a month ago:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1091324
I did exactly the same thing there that Marek did with this request for 6279
and I said:
| | I don't consider the thin ring clip variant proven to have appeared in this set, but I am adding it back into the inventory as a regular part to avoid inconsistency in the catalog.

| | | Our system on BrickLink is based on the reliability of the username. The admins
have a lot of experience reading logs and determining the creditworthiness of
users both current and inactive. I am quite confident that any of our admins
(including our catalog admins and myself) would have come up with the same conclusion
in this case.

I don't find the connection between the reliability of the username with
the reason Marek gave (below):
| | Inventory change request aproved. I only move "a" variant to regular and "b"
variant to alternate as in other two sets (8210-1 and 6090-1) from this year
with this situation to be consistent.

| Check how the hinges 4276a and 4276b have been changed for this set 7824 from
1983-90:

The reviewer doesn't say if he opened a new one but this copy is so neat
coming with everything, like the clear inner tray and catalog of 1995. The catalog
shows that this copy was from 1995 and we can see in the images 4265a.
My guess is that in the early releases, 4265a was used but it is likely that
in the following year, it got replaced by 4265b.

Some strange changes were made to this set.
Set originally inventoried with "a" type then in 2010 "a" type changed to "b"
type in regular section. In 2012 "a" type return but as an alternate. Finally
in 2013 in regular section "b" type changed to "a" but "a" left in alternate
So now we have "a" in both regular and alternate section. 
Unfortunately, any discussion about these changes remain.
And here we go again, this mess have to be straighten

I'm sure that this set should have both variant "a" and "b" in inventory
(one of them as alternate), another set from the same year for example
the only strange think were these changes through years with final result having
the same part variant twice

| Are you sure based on what? Based on the other two sets?
Based on the way Storm-chaser treats this type of cases, you should ONLY accept
any of these variations if there is an evidence: sealed set or an owner who has
kept the set with original parts.
All my inventories supported with any other type of evidence (including instructions)
have been rejected.
I don't think it is correct to have various procedures depending on which
admin check the request.

| Nope, the price was 70 for 2 items (I did not do screenshot as I gave up buying)
so if he sold for 60 he is even worse...
I guess it is better to go back to ebay. You guys really don't have any boundaries...

A seller is allowed to change their prices whenever they like before an order
is placed. You contacting them probably alerted them to see that their price
was rather low. Is what they did ethical? No. Is it allowed? Yes.
Their new price is still quite cheap anyway - they are still cheapest in Europe
for new by about 5 Euro. You can now decide to buy from them or buy from someone
else.

Perhaps someone who has some insight into this matter will be willing to share

This part only comes in one set (with part 57878 Train Wheel RC Train listed
as a counterpart):
This part comes in 70 sets and two parts:
Are they the same part with duplicate catalog entries? This is what I suspect.

Part 2879 is only in the inventory for set 9764-1. Brickset has that set listed

| Dear Admins,
I want to share one of my first experiences as a new bricklink member I had to
suffer. There is no response on my complaint (there is no even proper category
for this) so I'm desperate to seek justice.
I was searching for set 60051 and I found a great deal as you can see in the
first image.
I wanted to buy one, but seeing the price I decided to go for both. Unfortunately
shop size policy stopped me from ordering so I contacted the seller (I've
seen replicas on eBay, and that time I was not sure if they can be sold here):
"Subject: 60051

Hello,
I am interested in your High Speed trains. They are real LEGO, aren't they?
If
so, I am thinking to buy both of them, but the shipping cost can be an issue.
I wonder how much it is to 4400 Nyiregyhaza Hungary? I also wonder if it would
be better to take the sealed small packages our ofthe paper box and re-package
them? I don't need the box nor the instructions, if you find it reasonable
I'm
more than happy to leave them with you in exchange for this favor.
What do you say?
Cheers:
Tamas"

| Hygrotus, this is also one way to help, isn't it?
From my personal collection. The last set I got as a kid. My brother promised
to buy a Lego for me at some point and bought this after few years! It was bought
sometime about 1993 but there is no way we can know at what year my copy was
released.
I remember I got 5 of 4265a from this set and these were all 4265a I had. Unfortunately
one of 4265a were already smashed (broken) in the sealed box! That was disappointing
but I had forgiven TLG since this set was supposed to come with 3 of them and
by the way, I had still 4 (one extra).

Yes if the name or number of part is changed there is also log with that changes.
Those two parts don't have any.
