I'm amazed that, despite the head being rotated, it's actualy printed
level. That's gotta be a misprint!

Follow-up from:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1207021
Peeron has the the earliest version, in which we can see white
and light gray
I do have another version with ID 120530, that has extra pages 16-17.
On the insturctions page 16-17, there are white
and light gray
and on the extra pages 16-17, there are light gray
and black
Question: in what set and which version of insturctions, light gray
is used?!
Answer: set
So TLG did a back and forth 6540a-6540b-6540a
Questions 2: Is there any difference between white 6540a (from 1994) and light
gray 6540a (from 1999)?
****************
There are 20 of black
used on both versions as follows:
2 page 12 step 14
2 page 20 step 21
2 page 24 step 24
4 page 36 step 5
4 page 36 step 6
2 page 37 step 30
2 page 38 step 31
2 page 42 step 7
2 page 43 step 8

Almost certainly a misprint but something that I think will be worth something
to the right person as its set at a nice rotating angle and whilst you can always
set heads at a full 90 degrees where its facing out from the side that angle
always looks a bit forced. I think someone would appreciate something like that
for a display scene compared with always having their astromech droids facing
forwards the whole time
In fact rather than re-releasing almost identical R2-D2's it would be a nice
touch if Lego intentionally made some like this to give a bit more variation
to what is otherwise a difficult minifigure to make look unique when compared
with other minifig characters.
I have lots of those heads and they look to all be facing forwards from what
I can tell
|
Of course with it being a relatively new set there is always the possibility
that someone doing the set inventory assumed it was the same version as what
appears in the other sets but given the Lego site has images of this minifig
facing forwards I can't imaging it to be an intentional difference?

you already muster up the courage
You can easily accept the request for changing 18 to 20 of black 6558. I gave
you everything you need.
I also received this week a new box-opened version that I bought few weeks ago.
I can provide any information you need. Mine is the later version.

There are a lot of pending requests for this set from multiple people. It is
one of the toughest scenarios that I have ever encountered and has been sitting
on the back burner for quite some time due to the difficulty. They will probably
sit for longer until I can muster up the courage to go through it. This is one
of the sets that was passed from one inventory admin to another to another...

This set has been on my list of "tough things to figure out" for a long time
now. I don't think it is possible to use match ID 99 in this case.
|
I figured this, but maybe it is better to include match ID 99 and an extra note
for the three versions(maybe four?) of the insturcitons we know exist.
As it is now, the extra note refers to match ID 99 but there is none in the current
inventory.
|
I removed the mention of MID 99 in the note. It was there because a standard
format was used for the notes in all of these "redesign" cases and it just slipped
through.

| Within the serif numbered bricks (3005pt{number}s) I found also some difference
in the print. See picture. For example number 6: right in the picture has an
old logo on the stud and the two on the left have modern and old logo on the
stud, but I think this are just variations.
So maybe a reshuffle of the images, variantions and sets appearing is in order.
Also looking at set 237, because the bold numbered bricks could not be a alternate
for this set. The bold numbers all have a modern logo (1968) and yet in 1966
the set 237 (1960) was replaced by set 437. So the bold numbered bricks could
be a alternate for set 437, but not for set 237.

serif bricks have both the modern logo (appears in 1968) and old logo (appears

The number bricks of my picture only have the modern logo on the stud and from
which sets they are I do not know. I have looked at a lot of pictures of sets

they could easely be the 3005pt{number} bricks.

is neither bold nor with serif, so must be the middle one in your

as the non-distinguished variety, but seeing your picture, it must be the plain

Can you upload your image as an additional image for these parts? I think it
is enlightening to see the bricks side by side for comparison.

| | I agree with no NPB and no feedback for mutual cancellations. In my experience,
the bulk of completed NPB's are users who just simply refuse to communicate.
The Buyers who request cancellation in my store will get cancelled without incident,
with few exceptions. However, when a large order is placed, with many lots, and
a good amount of time spent pulling it together, it does not leave the Seller
with good feelings towards a cancelling Buyer.

Yes, that is why I don't pick and pack before payment.

| Hello,
I'm here since 10 years and I really find it wrong that a newcomer has 3
NPB as much as someone who is here since years.
I'll explain you why.
I really believe that a newcomer with 0 to 9 feedbacks shouldn't be allowed
to have more than 1 NPB chance. If you miss that, you're out.
As a seller, I have been targeted too much with newcomers that realize they don't
want to buy after the order was placed. This means my bricks are blocked for
7 to 21 days.
If I do cancel the order, the buyer can give me a negative, so I have to undergo
the NPB procedure in order to prevent the seller from giving nasty feedbacks.
My suggestion follows like this:
0-9 feedbacks rating : 1 NPB / NSS
10-99 2 NPB / NSS
100-999 3 NPB / NSS
1000-9999 4 NPB / NSS
10k+ 5 NPB / NSS
I believe that sellers may be targeted with NSS for facticious reasons, like
"1 piece wasn't in the package, I start a NSS" from a 0 fb rookie who still
doesn't know how BL works. Sometimes BL takes a lot of time to reply and
this lead in the past in the closing of many shops for a third NSS which wasn't
actually real. Giving a 4th or 5th NSS chance it's just a compensation for
possible "fake NSSs".
I'd personally prevent 0-9 feedback rating users from leaving negative feedbacks
too. But that's another story.

I think this is part of the issue. If a buyer contacts a seller and asks if they
can cancel and the seller agrees, I see no reason for NPB or feedback. The seller
knows the buyer doesn't want to proceed so could cancel the order and none
of their inventory is held up. There is no need for the seller to leave negative
feedback for a buyer if the buyer has asked for the cancellation and the seller
mutually agrees. I'd prefer to see it that if the order is mutually cancelled,
then no feedback should be allowed from either party. I think it is quite nasty
for a seller to mutually agree to cancel an order, then leave negative feedback
as the buyer asked to cancel. It is just vindictive. If sellers do this, then
there is little point in the buyer asking to cancel, they might as well just
sit it out and wait for the NPB, holding up the seller's inventory all that
time.
I'd much prefer to have buyers that ask to cancel than ones that do not contact
and just sit and wait it out even though they have no intention of paying.

I agree with no NPB and no feedback for mutual cancellations. In my experience,
the bulk of completed NPB's are users who just simply refuse to communicate.
The Buyers who request cancellation in my store will get cancelled without incident,
with few exceptions. However, when a large order is placed, with many lots, and
a good amount of time spent pulling it together, it does not leave the Seller
with good feelings towards a cancelling Buyer.

I am proud of you my Padawan.
I am also proud you surpassed me in selling, in that you have become a master
yourself.

Part of this is suggested years and years ago (you know who did this Hans...

with it.

| | 4.when a buyer or seller has had no negative/neutral feedback for the last 5
years or so,his/her negatives or neutrals older then 5 years should be removed
from the scoreboard
so this is an extra motivation to improve quality or behaviour
|
If old negatives are removed, then old positives should also be removed. After
all, if bad behaviour is removed from a record, then so should any good feedback
at the same time.
I have no problem with the positive praise rating being calculated over the past
year or five years or whatever, but I don't think old feedback should ever
be removed.
