How would you recommend selling a complete set of CMFs?

Personally, I would do what these other sellers have done and list the whole
set under the random entry. As long as you describe things clearly in your notes,
buyers will understand that they are paying for a whole set. This is one of those
areas where the average prices must be deduced from scanning listings or sold
listings instead of the calculated averages.

It is a shame that the site cannot do something and step in and help sellers
and buyers here, by realising what they need. Some people want to sell and buy
complete series. I thought the primary goal of bricklink was to enable sales
of LEGO, so adding a "complete series" for each CMF or similar series would work
well for those people. Does it really matter that they were never sold that way
by LEGO? If need be, this information could always be added as a note to a complete
series entry.

It's about time!

Here you go. Let's try it out.

41775-1 (Inv) Character, Unikitty!, Series 1 (Complete Random Set of 1 Character)
1 Set, 2018
Sets: Unikitty!: Unikitty! Series 1

41775-2 (Inv) Character, Unikitty!, Series 1 (Complete Series of 12 Complete Character Sets)
12 Sets, 2018
Sets: Unikitty!: Unikitty! Series 1

Let me know if you think the random one needs a big question mark placed over
it. If people like this entry and use it, we'll go ahead and add the others.

Hi! I bought an 8421 recently, and in bag number 8 there was the cord "4276327"
(=x77ac500) (see pictures). That's different from the database here, which
states x77cc250.

Fellow Bricklinkers,

I am looking for the easiest way to determine if a set can be built based on
a defined inventory, or, even better, a tool which can automatically determine
what sets can be built from a defined inventory.

Do you guys know of any such toot(s)/ways to do so or I am asking for the moon?

Thanks in advance!
Cheers
Pierre

I believe rebrickable is just for that!

Exactly what I needed, thanks for pointing me in the right direction brikomania!

Black Lightning

Hello,

I recently purchased the "SDCC2018-2: Black Lightning" set. I then went on Brickset
to add it to my collection, but no minifig is listed for the set. I proceeded
to send them a message so they could fix this error, but they told me they rely
on Bricklink for their minifig inventory.
That's why I'm posting a message here. I noticed that there are two entries
for Black Lightning on Bricklink : comcon056-1 for the full set and sh521 for
the minifig. But these two entries are not linked one to another.
Could someone in the admin team link them?

Thanks a lot!

Please take a look at:

https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=18904c01pb01&in=S

The crocodile consists of 4 parts and doesn't come assembled (at least not
in set 60157 which I just parted out). So isn't the correct way to include
the four parts in the inventories and the complete assembly as a counterpart
for all sets in the above list?

/Jan

You are correct. The pieces that come in the set should be included in the inventory
with the complete animal in the counterparts.

I'd love to fix this, but your response contradicts what two other admins
say in this thread. I'll let you all agree before I do anything.

/Jan

My response doesn't matter if the admins contradict it. But you will see
that Russell didn't exactly contradict me. He said they belong there, but
they just can't go there for the moment.

But just because the part-out system doesn't work like some people want to,
I don't see that as a reason not to make the inventories consistent. That
work can already be done now, and I have even offered to do it.

/Jan

For what it's worth, I agree with you and was totally unaware of the part
out thing being an issue. But I'm not the one you need to convince.
