I've parted this set-out some time ago and I am certain it came with aqua,
the only sky blue parts I have are from clickits so I had a reference point at
the time. Looks like it might be a tricky part to find in that colour (if it
even exists). Good luck though.

  i'm looking for this part in sky blue. i bought it few times and always got
medium azure.
is it possible that this part was never available in this color? In b.l reference
catalog this part appears as alternate in set 5961. does anyone has this set
with sky blue parts instead of aqua?

I'd be interested to know what it is as I have the same parts as you and
can't work it out from the known colours. It looks too uniform to have faded
and I'm assuming it's not a Bayer brick.

  Hello,

I have a 3001 2x4 brick that I would like to post in my store, but I need help
to identify the color.

It is slightly lighter than Light Orange, but slightly darker than Very Light
Orange.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Awesome, great choice. Well done StormChaser

In Catalog, Admin_Russell writes:
  Hello everyone,

We are pleased to announce that we have made another appointment. StormChaser,
who was appointed as Inventories Administrator last year, has now been promoted
to Catalog Administrator.

This is an important step for BrickLink. We haven't had a Catalog Admin appointment
for over nine years, and this is the first time someone has moved from the Inventories
side of the system to the Catalog side.

We believe StormChaser is highly qualified for this position. In addition to
an outstanding year as an Inventories Admin, he has had years of intense experience
with every area of the BrickLink Catalog. He has made many thousands of corrections,
uploaded an enormous amount of new data, and has solved a number of LEGO mysteries
over the years. So we're very pleased he has agreed to accept this position,
and we look forward to his activity in this new area.

We will be be making another appointment soon to fill his former position as
Inventories Administrator.

Russell

Bright light orange is in the colour range, what's the part number and I'll
see if I have one

I was wondering if it might be but only saw two shades of orange listed as being
known colors for this part. And looking at pictures I was not certain either
option was right. Unfortunately medium orange was not on the list.

There's a part number called 3001special where you'll see all sorts of
odd test / Bayer bricks for sale. Highly collectable, I collect them myself but
it can get a bit obsessive if not careful.

  Hi folks, I have a question about milky white 2 x 4 brick (first time posting
as well, so there's a chance this should be in another forum?)

I have found 2x4 brick in milky white for sale on BL, but there does not appear
to be a set that this was sold in? Is this possible, and if so, why?

Thanks very much in advance.

If they are uniform they are what some of us call 'brittle blue'. I've
got loads that I collect and there are other's out there who collect brittle
blue too.

  I was sorting some of my legos into colors and found a few pieces in a color
I’ve never seen before. It’s like a dark blueish green/ dark teal. I checked
the colors on Bricklink, and couldn’t find it listed. These are Lego brand.
I’ll include pics. Does anyone have this same color?

Sounds like a good plan. I listed a cheap 9p item several weeks back and about
a week later I did my usual Brickstock download to check for missing locations
and oddities and noticed I'd listed it at £90. But doing that routine check
did allow me to quickly fix it.

  Hi

Probably a lot of us have been guilty of this, adding an item to your inventory
and forgetting the decimal point, or putting it in the wrong place, thereby creating
an abnormal price.

Is it possible when entering a price for new or used, to flag if the price entered
is say more than xx% of the average prices already on file. Still giving you
the option to enter that price, but just warning that this price is abnormal

Thanks
Tracy

they all look the same. My CAB is upper right.

  Curious about these round plates.

On the right 2 CAB round plates 1x1 bought recently New on BL, and on the left
1 other round plate fond in a random lot bought elsewhere. The 2 are same color
and I guess indeed CAB. But what color is the left?

Also, these plates are not solid same color, see second image... is this genuine?

Thx,
Arnoud
