| One of the things that BrickLink needs, is better brand identification in the
larger community of potential buyers. It occurs to me that one way to work towards
this goal is to have BL logo stickers (I.e. The same icon contains the smiling
yellow face 2x2 brick logo). This type of sticker has been used by Apple, in
that one is included with every Apple product. Over the past ~20 years it has
been a white Apple with a bite missing, white the original incarnation was a
6-color Apple.
Our new benevolent overlords have extensive experience in producing stickers,
and presumably they have access to the ability to produce large quantities, that
we (the sellers) could include one with each order. Eventually, you would start
seeing them stuck on laptops and the rear windows of vehicles. Free advertising
for BL !
Thank you for your support.

Ha! You have made me smile with this one.
Without getting into another long, drawn-out debate, I presented a different
viewpoint two weeks ago in this post:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1171710
I enjoyed seeing the horse disassembled in your comic. I'd never seen one
disassembled before. So yeah, for purely educational reasons it is interesting
to take stuff apart. And I think it would be nice to have pictures of disassembled
assemblies as additional images for catalog entries. But as far as creating
additional catalog entries, I think some common sense has to come into the picture
somewhere.
I've never read a comic book in my life, but I grew up reading comic strips
in newspapers and thus have a certain affection for comic strips. They're
like short stories as opposed to the novels that are comic books. I don't
do novels, either, by the way.
So I always enjoy reading your comics and hope you plan to continue them for
a long, long time. I know you probably don't get much feedback on them,
but this is the lot of the artist. For every comment you get I'm sure many
more people read and enjoy them.

| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Delete 4 Part 58090 Black Tire 30.4 x 14 VR Solid
Comments from Submitter:
Set 8163 should include tires 30.4 x 14, but without the VR designation. The wheel (345837) does not work with the 30.4 x 14 VR tire (345841). The VR tire is slightly larger on the inside. I could not locate the correct tire without the VR designation on the Bricklink site. I took a picture if you want it for verification.
I bought one complete set (372824) and it was correct, but the extra tire I bought included the VR. That's how I discovered the problem.

Extra parts are rarely removed from inventories. The extra part was apparently
present in the initial inventory and this was later confirmed by a person who
later became a longtime inventories administrator for the site.
Extra parts sometimes vary by region. Even though your new set didn't include
this extra part, that doesn't mean that every set didn't include it.
Don't be too surprised if this request is not approved.

Thanks again Stormchaser! When I list this set I will simply note that it will
not include the extra white tube. Just wanted to confirm if this is included
or not. I do understand that extra pieces vary by region and even in sets themselves.
Thanks again for your time!

There is often a note on the item's catalog page that explains why it is
being deleted.
Sometimes it is because a part's entry has been split into new entries for
different variants of the part. If that is the case, then you should see links
to those variants in the "similar parts" section of the catalog page. That's
where you can buy the parts.
Sometimes it is because the item was listed in error.
Sometimes it is because a Bricklink admin just decided it should be deleted.

| Adding changing/moving banners makes me nervous and feels like random ads and
topics on tabloid sites that want to desperately generate clicks. Please, this
is not a site for hyperactive children used to fast cut youtube videos who might
think this is a good idea. Keep still images on Bricklink and put everything

Listings evaporating would be totally unacceptable though, and would finally
cause the people who are accusing BL of inventory gremlins to be right. If such
a system was implemented it would cause me to write software to evade it. Because
to me, if there is one thing that's unacceptable about selling, it's
parts physically taking up space in my home that are dead weight and I will never
discover it. It's a number that can only grow over time, unless I would count
all of my million parts which - call me lazy - I won't do
Much better to simply make (older) "undetermined" parts not appear in the list
when browsing a store's items. Or undetermined items forced into stockroom
(with clear notification). The seller's inventory management should always
be 100% accurate and not suffer from a pressure means to improve listings. That's
a very principal thing to me, and for some sellers there's even a tax report
aspect here.
But yes, I understand your sentiment, and it shouldn't be too difficult for
Bricklink to focus the incentive on "buyability" and not on messing up administration.

That's actually not logical. Sometimes it is a while before a variant is
recognized. It is not at all uncommon for it to go unnoticed for 6 months by
which time a lot of people have the new one for sale, listed as the old one.
I added to the catalog when someone on the forum reported that there
was a new variant. I happened to have it and got a quick picture. This happened
Sept 23, 2019. Last year's advent calenders brought the attention to it.
But it has now been found in 7 sets from 2018. You had over a year to part
out one of those sets and have a listing that claimed to be the old variant and
was actually the new variant.
Many more stark examples can be found among the Clikits. Little attention has
usually be given to them. [p=clikits004a] and [p=clikits004b] masqueraded as
the same part for ELEVEN YEARS before Woutr noticed they were distinct and there
are a dozen other Clikits pieces with the same situation. Now the listings are
littered with the undetermined piece and there is no way for the Bricklink computers
to determine which is which. It's pretty easy to do in person once you learn
what you are looking for, but you have to actually have the pieces in your hand.

True, and I wasn't saying that it could account for *all* listings. But it
would already help a great deal if the items that are certainly not of the newer
type, weren't turned into undetermined. Even in your 11 year example, they
could still leave listings that are older than 11 years (and not added to in
the meantime). Maybe not so many listings left that qualify in such an extreme
case, but still, all bits help.
I think for most items we have a pretty good grasp on what year they were released.
If I recall right, several lots in my inventory have turned "undetermined" that
hadn't been created or added to for quite some time, and there was no reason
to make them undetermined because of a much more recent type.
Anyway you're right it's not a *solution*... just something that'd
help. Along with clear communication about new types to sellers that have them
listed when a new one is discovered, and simple interface options to manage types.
I think type listing deserves some attention for improvement, as many problems
buyers run into with sellers have to do with type errors.

I just now submitted a request to change the title of this part. I requested
that the title be changed from:
Duplo Cannon Shooting with Axle Hole and Red Firing Button and Medium Blue
Base
to:
Duplo Cannon Shooting with Axle Hole and Red Firing Button and Matching Color
Base

| I think the "and Medium Blue Base" should be dropped from the description.
What do you all think?
I honestly missed this when parting out and just sold a black one, which is completely
black as is the one in the picture, don't think one was ever made with a
different color base than the cannon.
Should I post this somewhere else to request this?
