I deal with a lot of secondhand sets and come across sets with open boxes (or
like today no boxes), but sealed bags of parts. Today I scored 14/17 numbered
backs for set 10237 Tower of Orthanc. I almost missed out on getting the second
bag #3 because it didn't obviously go with the other bags. Thankfully I
was able to find an old unboxing video on YouTube and figured out I'm missing
3 numbered bags (#1, #4, and one of the two #5s), plus the unnumbered eagle bag.
But usually when I'm in this situation, I haven't been so lucky. It's
especially tricky with sets that have unnumbered bags. I usually end up opening
them to do the inventory if I'm uncertain, but it would be nice to keep them
sealed and be able to know what was missing.
I'd be willing to provide the list for any new sets I open, if it might help
someone else out down the line. It seems like a fairly easy thing and I'm
surprised that, at least as far as I'm aware, there isn't somewhere to
find this information easily (at least for modern sets). Bricklink seems like
a natural place for this information to exist.
I'm not sure how many folks would be interested in that information, but
in the last year I've probably had questions on the contents for close to
10 different sets.
Anyway, I'm not even sure if this is the appropriate place to mention it,
but I thought I'd give it a shot.

I would "love" a function like this. I buy a lot of older collectible sets many
times with unopened bags. Figuring out what is in specific "bags" (numbered or
un-numbered) let alone figuring out what pieces are missing knowing that a specific
numbered bag is missing presents a real challenge!

For example: I have a Legofactory "SKYLINE" SET #5562 new open box with just
one numbered bag missing all the other numbered bags are present and sealed.
Trying to determine what pieces are missing from the set is quite a challenge!Make that Set#5526 (transposition error on my part)

I see why you need it, but I wouldn't count on this happening. Changing from
set inventories to bag inventories would mean multiplying the entire inventory
database by, what, a factor 5? Moreover, all set inventories will need to be
compiled manually without the help of the inventory list in instructions or on
boxes. It would be a heck of a lot of continuous work (are you going to do it?),
and per set it will only ever be consulted a handful of times (if ever).
You're not the only one who ran into this, and I'm not saying it's
necessarily a bad idea, but my advice would be.. I wouldn't wait for this
|
Besides, I think you can figure out what you're missing from the instructions?
As far as I know most sets are built a bag at a time, so if you follow through
the episode for the bags you're missing you should be able to get yourself
a list of parts you're missing. Haven't done this but could work?

It looks like it's requested a lot and indeed would be very useful for people
completing sets. But it would require a lot of work from the community to painstakingly
create such information for every set. It would also need additional funcionality
from the site so I don't see it happening in this millenium.

Yes, you can add them to your store as a custom figure.
|
I don't understand the system in place, because the only minifigures in the
MOC character category are pad printed. And if you visit the Custom Items,
the actual mini MOCs are still buried by the homebrew plastic listings.
There's probably wide community out there, looking for this. Eurobricks enthusiasts,
for one. There's definitely overlap with BrickLink there. Personally, I keep
posting figgy projects in the forum and people still click on those (thank you),
so maybe we'd see more mini MOCs if there was a proper place for them?

It would be nice to have a distinction between customs and MOCs. Add a minifig

I agree with the suggestion. I'd like to see any vehicle that someone submitted
get approved and inventoried and added to the set inventory. But I think the
ones that were added didn't sell really well or for more than their parts,
so Bricklink didn't see it as worth the time.

| | Hello! I'm net1986 from South Korea!
I would like to suggest something today.
First of all I apologize for my poor English grammar, please understand.
This is what I would suggest this time.
"I wish there was function to view information of just part product from the
set, Not whole set. And function to order those just part product."
For example,
1. I want to get only police swat van from set 60008 Museum Break-in.(don't
need any part like figs or Museum)
2. But there is only brick information for whole set(Unnecessary a lot of information
confuses me)
3. It takes a lot of hard work to analyze for only just the swat van.
4. And It's very hard to order each part brick for the van
What I mean is that I wish there was a function to view a only part product(just
swat van of set 60008)and I wish I would order those part in way "easy buy".
I know that the "east buy" function already exists.
It's very helpful for restorers.
But now, It adjust only set product or MOC product as I know.
So, I wish the "easy buy" function is more enhanced(add part product from set)
I hope you guys understand my words.
reply me, thanks.
Best regard,
|
This already exists, for some sets, via special assemblies.
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=P&catString=961
But still, someone has to go through the manual working out what parts are needed
for each assembly.
|
|
I actually added a couple of special assemblies such as the Whomping Willow and
the Ford Anglia, and being one of the one sellers for each, those sold almost
immediately, even after listing them again. Another one I did was the Giant Ant-man
- sold 2 of them instantly after posting them.
But as Randy mentioned, it sounds like a nightmare for them to try to manage
so I can understand why they only did a small test run. It's unfortunate
though, because a site like BL is perfect for people looking for just these parts
of the sets.

Actually, the reason they are on hold for further additions is due to site limitations
that make it very hard for the inventories of these items to be administered.
The main limitations are two-fold: (1) these inventories cannot have alternates
at present so alternates must be tracked through inventory notes, and (2) these
inventories must be manually kept in sync with set inventories when changes are
made to the set inventories that they are in. You can see that if we rapidly
expanded these additions to the catalog, it would quickly become an administration
nightmare.
Cheers,
Randy

and is the main reason why I have abandoned selling sets completely.
|
That shouldn't affect the prices of sets sold as complete so there is no
reason to stop selling those. But yes, incomplete sets can be anything from almost
complete to a few bricks. But it means sellers must use common sense when pricing
them.
|
But isn't there only one single entry for used sets in the price guide, regardless
of completeness?

What I mean is that I wish there was a function to view a only part product(just
swat van of set 60008)and I wish I would order those part in way "easy buy".
I know that the "east buy" function already exists.
It's very helpful for restorers.
But now, It adjust only set product or MOC product as I know.
So, I wish the "easy buy" function is more enhanced(add part product from set)
I hope you guys understand my words.
reply me, thanks.

This already exists, for some sets, via special assemblies.

But still, someone has to go through the manual working out what parts are needed
for each assembly.

It doesn't work at all well at the moment. You have to know one exists to
find it. Or you can look through the inventory of every set, and right down the
bottom under counterparts you will find the assembly(ies) if it(they) exists.

Or browse https://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?catType=P&catID=961
Must the item be in hand for it to be added and inventoried?

I would like to suggest something today.
First of all I apologize for my poor English grammar, please understand.
This is what I would suggest this time.
"I wish there was function to view information of just part product from the
set, Not whole set. And function to order those just part product."
For example,
1. I want to get only police swat van from set 60008 Museum Break-in.(don't
need any part like figs or Museum)
2. But there is only brick information for whole set(Unnecessary a lot of information
confuses me)
3. It takes a lot of hard work to analyze for only just the swat van.
4. And It's very hard to order each part brick for the van

It's probably a lot of catalog work to break sets into separate components,
but I see a huge advantage: It would solve the pricing problem with "incomplete"
sets. Currently people are listing sets for half of its value because minifigs
or other major parts of the set are missing. That messes up the priceguide completely
and is the main reason why I have abandoned selling sets completely. There are
just too many nonsensical listings.
If for starters there would be a separate entry for sets without the minifigs,
and an entry for the minifigs, that'd already help.
Maybe this would have drawbacks of its own, not sure if it's a good idea
but I'm just thinking out loud...
|
That's why I suggest !!
I think My idea is good for seller who sell incomplete set and good for buyer
who want to collect for just part product from set.
Anyway, thanks for your agree
and I'm very moved for the you guys' reply
(This is my first post of Forum in using foreign language)
Have a nice day
