Still cautiously optimistic.

Unfortunately we are likely to see negative changes or changes perceived by some/many
as negative before we see benefits, I worry about them too.

Easier to remove things that exist before adding beneficial changes.

Well that's how I'm choosing to view it, all too easy for me to see it
otherwise but I'm trying to be positive, makes a change.

Do you not approve these yourself, or are you not expert enough? They've
been on sale at certified LEGO stores since yesterday here as well.

I'm not allow to do it anymore.

P.S.
I would like to submit new inventories for SW sets

I had a feeling that it would start and now it has. First the catalog and then

Yep, my thoughts too.

From what I've seen, I thought feelings where mixed and fairly evenly spread
between doom and gloom, positivity and cautiously optimistic.

Don't know what has been posted on other sites, perhaps these were less favourable.

Yes sir!
It's easy to price the commonly found bricks.
I do like the fee structure here. On that other site I have to price 15% above
retail, just to equate for fees alone, unless I get a low final evaluation offer.
What GOOD brick did you sell? I do love them all...
So far I've sold two lots - one common larger lot of 8xC bricks priced high,
and one rarer, smaller lot priced reasonably.
I didn't only get bricks - I got minifigures, cases, parts.
Tricky.

In Colors, Stuart9 writes:

That's always the problem with special bricks, rarely is there something
to compare them with to make a judgement.

I've more I want to sell but I'm holding off until I can find time to
do some research and price accordingly.

Check out those listed under 3001special, paying attention to descriptions, however
it's very limited in providing useful information unless your bricks closely
resemble those there.

Items sold on BL provide no useful information as detailed information on individual
bricks is not available.

They regularly sell between £20 - £80 each, less at the higher price, I'd
guess £30 each is not unusual for one a little rarer.

The old advice comes in here, price high and be prepared to come down, you could
ask for offers if already listed and then sell it through BL at the new price.

I had one brick, not 3001special which I didn't want to sell despite numerous
generous offers but eventually sold through BL at a very good price, couldn't
say no.

However a lot are sold under £10.

Also check out Flickr if you have time to dig around and find those being offered
there, many of the collectors will post items on offer.

Please disregard my ignorance, I just need accurate information. I would dislike

Howdy. I've been collecting for a few years now. Love 'em all! Do you
know of Bricklink - it takes a while to become familiar, but if you'd like
to invest some time there, they would happily answer any of your questions.

Mursten, Bayer, BASF, Grangemouth, Wrexham, and other manufacturers were all
contracted by LEGO to produce plastics for their bricks. LEGO provided them with
2x4 molds as test examples.
I'm not sure as to how they all aquired the molds they did, but the Mursten
ABCD bricks are in relation to a clutch test - how firmly they grip to another
piece.' A' being the tightest clutch and 'D' being the loosest.
Due to those test examples LEGO now use the 'C' as the brick of choice.
Modulex is an Architectural scale brick - being an ignorant Aussie, I'm not
familiar with it exactly. They're ultra-cute, that's all I know about
that.
The milky, marbled, and semi-transparent bricks were all produced by the aforementioned
companies because they were pumping coloured plastics into the molds they were
provided with without cleaning the injection pipes before adding another coloured
plastic - in the case of the milky/semi-transparent, they were not adding enough
colour to the mold?
I will do a quick research on prices for you regarding the bricks I've offered
you.

I can tell you that I have never seen a double A, B, C, or D brick being offered
for sale, let alone a complete set. Having said that, does not mean they do not
exist.

If you're not in a rush, I'm happy to get you more information!

Have to agree with Nathan here, post a few pics and just watch who appears.

There are a number of bricks associated with Wrexham too, many of which aren't
that well known and not particularly collected, maybe only one or two of us.

These look like many other standard bricks, nothing unusual, the only one I would
pick out other than the waxy looking bricks are those UK sideways logo bricks.

Samsonite of North America produced these sideways logo bricks too but the mould
markings, studs, logo style, spruce position are different as are the colours
available.

They come in CA and ABS.

This however has a drawback, it adds a separate entry for each of the parts each

Might deter some from ordering but you can find the set quicker.

I've read about brittle blue being a period in time where the plastic turned

more. Blue, white, yellow and grey's turn all sorts of weird shades over
time. It's inevitable... I don't understand why we always talk about
brittle blue but not brittle yellow? If the part is not the right shade i'd
just throw it in the trash.

The term brittle blue is not just a discoloration. It is a bad quality plastic
that breaks easily. Other color bricks may discolor, but they don't just
break apart like the brittle blue pieces.

Is there a "brittle brown"? I was building a set from the early 2000's and
I had multiple pieces explode in my hand while building. I'd never seen anything
like it. Set looked in good condition otherwise.

It does look like Brittle blue and from the description of how easily it broke,
i believe it is.

As has been said, it is known as brittle blue as even the most gentle squeeze
can make it literally explode in your hands leaving very sharp edges that can
cut.

Sun faded or discoloured blue looks a deep greenish blue but still behaves
normally, not easily broken just like other faded colours.

There is a small market amongst collectors as a curiosity, especially any 2 x
4's, i have the 3001 and some others but not the duplo bricks.

Firstly let me say that we know suggestions are not being implemented and according

which doesn't require huge amounts of development time and would make life
a bit easier.

Currently the method of manually adding inventory is long winded, provides no
audit trail of what has been done and at best is clumsy.

We use Brickstock for most of our updates to our store. It is much easier, quicker
and provides us with a complete audit trail - the only real snag is what happens
when the file gets to Bricklink, The verify screen drops off the Bricklink part
number for some reason so we are left with an audit trail which, when variants
are involved, isn't really all that helpful, although to be fair we have
used this for some time.

Simply placing the bricklink product code on the verify screen would be very
helpful and this is not a major programming issue. At the same time give us a
print button to print that screen Using the print command from the browser doesn't
work well with the page setup falling short of what is needed.

This is a simple matter and could be resolved in minimal time - please implement.

Appears to be a colour quality problem at some time, they regularly turn up,
have some myself.

I'll eventually list mine but I haven't got to them yet, I'll probably
add them with a note under Light grey or LBG depending on a close comparison
at that time.

Re: Old (classic) light gray

Topic:

Only just started to list my light grey items so I've still to decide what
to do with variations other than those I consider yellowed which will have that
note attached.

I have several thousand parts in light grey to sort and list so I will have to
think about this carefully.

Takes an absolute age, good light and examples of lbg parts to sort them, going
to be a mammoth task.

In Colors, legoman_74 writes:

So what do you do with them? Do you list them separately and describe them accordingly
with color variation? They are definitely more "yellow" than the typical old
light gray but they are not the sun burnt yellow and as mentioned, they are uniform
all over, including underneath. These are good clean pieces with little to no
wear and I hate the idea of discarding them thinking they are "bad".

Now I wonder how much of my old personal collection may have this with the old
light grays? That will take time to go through.

Hello,
So I am well aware of the "sun burnt" effect on white, blues, yellows, the old
light grays and among other colors, however I am sorting through quite a bit
of used Lego with the old light grays and I pulled quite a bit of them out believing
they were discolored by the sun. Upon closer inspection, they appear to be quite
uniform in their color, including underneath, just definitely a different shade
than the others and not quite like the "sun burnt" ones. Does anyone else out
there recall issues with Lego having off color batches on old light grays in
the past like they have trouble with now on the new light bluish grays and yellows?
Thanks in advance for everyone's time.
Sincerely,
Ken

If there is no meaningful reference number then the only way I can see is to
list it as custom, which it isn't but I can't think of anything else.

Sadly the custom option is not a great one as people won't see it there unless
they check as thoroughly as I do from time to time.

He wants to add it to the catalog, so it won't have to be listed as a custom

If you read the text at the bottom of the current catalog image, it says "NOT

That makes me think that the current catalog image is a prototype image and not
the actual book cover that made it to publishing.

That could be it, but where does the different number come from? Is that also
related to a prototype?

@StormChaser: I used Americanisms throughout. If you want a cut 'n paste
copy with HTML mark-up (with no footnotes) then message me your email and I will
send it to you.

This was more difficult than I had anticipated, and took a lot of research, writing
and re-writing, checking over and checking over again, and so on. However, it
is the start of what will probably be a great series of discussions, so I will
not be offended if any or all of the above work is changed/removed/obliterated,
etc.

There were places I could have written reams of information, but I realised this
was not part of the remit. Hwever, I had to provide some footnotes to keep my
insanity and know where I was confused or had difficulty in providing a definition.

Footnotes:

1 There are no items in the catalogue under the 'Legacy' category.
2 The term ‘magnet’ has two meaning, in this case.
3 Set

30611-1 (Inv) R2-D2 - Mini polybag
70 Parts, 2017

does not fit into the 'Mini' category!
4 Hair can be shared between ‘minifig’ and ‘minidoll’ see

92257 Mini Doll, Hair Friends Long Ponytail, Side Bangs, Hole on Top
Parts: Mini Doll, Hair

5 The complete assembly characters (like the goblins) fit in the second
part of the definition of this category.
6 Hair can be shared between ‘minifig’ and ‘minidoll’ see

92257 Mini Doll, Hair Friends Long Ponytail, Side Bangs, Hole on Top
Parts: Mini Doll, Hair

7 Second part was to be split out under discussion ‘Minifigure, Head,
Faceless’ (1010)
8 I could not work this category out, so I copied the description Dan
wrote.
9 "All but three of these sets were models of a form of vehicle and many
of these sets were duplications of sets released within the LEGOLAND (theme).",
Source: Brickipedia
10 There is no ’Modulex Tile’ category!?
11 This is more of a ‘tag’ than a category.
12 There are four sets

4677-1 (Inv) Name Letter blister pack
67 Parts, 2004
Sets: School Supplies

;

40118-1 (Inv) Buildable Brick Box 2 x 2
199 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2014

; and,

40251-1 (Inv) Mini Piggy Bank
248 Parts, 2017

in this category.

a It always makes me giggle when I see the use of the word (and forms
of the word) ‘mold’ or ‘mould’, particularly in the context of bricks, as we
are talking here. Imagine the term “molded design” as a brick designed to carry
a fungi ecosystem on it, rather than a plastic heat- and pressure-formed designed
shape.

Since the English language is unique to most languages of the world being that
it is has freedom to form and re-form, lets now refine the words mold and mould.
Right here goes: ‘mold’ is a “frame for shaping something”; and, ‘mould’
is “a furry growth of minute fungi”. I will inform Mariam-Webster and
Oxford of the changes they need to make to their dictionaries.

It was all intense though, I actually enjoyed finishing this work (didn’t enjoy
doing it as much).
