It would definitely be nice if the system automatically notified you. But in trying to clean up the Clikits listings I have often directly asked people to check their undetermined [...]

[...] Truth be told, 4070 was never "the part without the slot". You should have just left them unsorted. 4070a was created so that if people wanted to trade the version with [...]

Catalogue Variants: One of the most frustrating moments and arguments happened years ago concerning part 4070 and the addition of 4070a. Many argued it was the same part but [...]

Re: Part Variants - Admin_Russell

[...] If an entry with 400 lots is split into two entries, you may see 250 listings go to one variant and 300 go to another. That would mean that effectively 150 of those lots [...]
