This exists because it was sold this way. Same for the others that are mentioned
below that have appeared in sets as figs built that way. I get the idea of having
all different monochrome color figs available, but then where do you limit the
creation of them. Does it mean, you could only have figs if all the parts are
available to create it. If someone "cleans" a part to remove the print and create
a new monochrome, they technically have the part, but it's not original by
any means. The current catalog doesn't limit anyone from buying or creating
them, but I could see the gap if someone is looking to purchase one. It's
a balance that I'm glad I don't have to manage.

There are other monochrome figures too, just with accessories/headgear
As "standard" monochromes are not official, it is right that they are not in
the catalogue. Otherwise, fans could invent other similar things and expect them
to be included in the catalogue.
I also don't think there is the need. Monochrome has entered as a search
term for genuinely produced legs/hips and torso assemblies:
so they are easy to find.

I think there is a very big market for monochrome minifigures. So far, these
are considered custom items.
I would like to suggest establishing a separate category for monochrome minifigures
in the "standard version" of all colors.
For example "Minifigure Monochrome - white".
I look forward to your estimation and feedback

I think with the increase in wiping torsos and parts to make monochrome figures
adding monochrome figures to the catalog would be a bad idea.

On top of this, I'm pretty sure the main objective behind the catalog is
that it is a representation of the parts that are officially sold by Lego. While
they do sell parts to make monochrome minifigures, they are not sold as such,
hence why they are not listed in the standard catalog and require custom listings.
If they were to do this, it could open a can of worms for other requests.

Disagree - the main objective of the catalog is to facilitate selling and buying
LEGO in this marketplace. If there is significant demand it should be added to
the catalog to make it easier to buy and sell (and to track the price history).
I trust the catalog admins to make a judgement call whether something is worthy
or not, but can understand that they wouldn't want that responsibility and
the flood of requests/complaints.

| | Hi
I don't know if this had been on this forum before, but I really get irritated
by the fact that there is a default shipping (and payment) method preset.
Over and over buyers select the wrong shipping method because this is the default
option. So order a small object for 12 euro and choose parcel track&trace @ 32,50
for shipping. This means I first have to ask them if this is really the option
they want, wait for their answer, correct shipping method etc.
Or in a less extreme example send out the invoice and get buyers who are upset
about the high shipping costs.
Today at least 5 out of ten orders have what looks a not quite logical shipping
method chosen by the buyer. If I make another method default it won't change
this, buyers will select letter untracked for a 2 kg worth 200 euro shipping.
Maybe I do something wrong, so first let me ask if there is a method to let buyers
FORCE to make a choice about shipping (and payment!!) and if this is not possible
PLEASE make it possible to sellers NOT to have the default shipping and payment
method pre-selected in their shop.
As a buyer I also sometimes make the mistake to click to fast and bypass the
option to change the shipping and payment methods. So I understand this happens
and I don't blame my buyers. (but the system...)
So it will be much less frustration for both buyer and seller.
Sorry if this is a silly question for which there is a simple solution, and so
there will be one thanks for telling me how I should change the setting.
|
Did you group the shipping methods?
|
No I didn't but the 'goup' field before the shipping method is gray/de-activated
and cant be changed.'Maybe I need to activate it somehow, I will try to find
it out but in fact it isn;t a solution.
Moreover this is a more general problem and I don't understand why only one
seller/buyer is reacting. In my opinion it would be much better if buyers have
to act to choose the right shipping method. Putting ther cheapest method default
wouldn't help because manu buyers now just click through and when the cheapest
option is default choose 'letter no insurance' for a bulky 500 euro order.
I know this problem both as a seller and a frequent buyer. '
So again the question: Why is the shipping and payment method pre-set with the
result that often the wrong methods are chosen? Isn't it better that buyer
is forced to make a choice? Every seller will have the experience that often
a wrong method is chosen and every buyer knows how easy it is to click through
and afterwards sees he choosed the wrong method.
Corrections on shipping methods will allways be neccecary, but now I have to
correct a large proportion of all orders, with all correspondence. (You choosed
a rather expenmsive shiping methid for this orderr, do you reallyv want this-
or: Sorry, 20 BURPS realy do not fit in a letter so I have to change this to
parcel shipping)
