It hasn't taken long in the past for approvals. Has the process changed?
|
One of the catmins on vacation and a lot of new sets were released June 1. Getting
stickered counterparts from old sets always takes a back seat to adding brand
new stuff to the catalog.
|
I am back today after three wonderful weeks of fun, sun, hiking and biking!
To the OP, Jon is correct. Stickered counterparts always take a back seat to
everything else because they are very work intensive and do not provide much
value to the site. LEGO released more than 100 new sets over the last month,
so all of the new parts, new minifigures, and new inventories for those sets
are priority number one. We also have to keep up with the constant flow of change
requests. With the addition of the ability to enter packaging dimensions for
everything in the catalog, we have been swamped with change requests.
|
I just want to add:
Stickered parts do provide much value when trying to ID parts and sets in a second
hand lot. I agree with the priorities but remember that stickered parts are valuable
in the catalog.
Thanks

Everyone wants them in the catalog. They are very helpful, but they are very
helpful to a small number of people. Thousands want to part out a new set right
now. A dozen people will use a stickered part from a 10-year-old set over the
course of a year. I DO want the work to get done, though.

(like Pitney Bowes has been).
So I went looking for a ShipStation web site, and I found one ...
https://www.shipstation.com/pricing/
So plan on paying now for package labels. The people shipping lots of low value
orders are going to be hit the hardest. For those using Pirate Ship ? I expect
there will be a mass exodus of PayPal/Pitney Bowes users. The Pirate Ship servers
may get overwhelmed, or Pirate Ship may begin charging per month like ShipStation
is doing.

I contacted PayPal through the message center and asked:
Want to know if there will be any charges to use shipstation shipping since
it did not say in the email.
and got the following reply back:
Good evening, my name is Sherry. I can certainly help you with this!
Aside from the shipping label cost, there are no extra shipping charges.
Have a wonderful week! Thank you for contacting PayPal and for being a valued
customer. If you have no further questions, you may close the conversation by
selecting End Message or by clicking the "X."
Therefore, it looks like nothing will change except the service provider.

One of the details that is still outstanding is how does the seller pay ShipStation
for the label ? My impression is that it is via a CC. That is because I've
seen people asking ShipStation (on their forum) for PayPal debiting instead of
a CC. I hope the reply you received is correct and concise, and there are no
hidden details. Somewhere I saw a reference to a ShipStation FAQ on PayPal, but
I have been unable to find it.

Maybe it has always been possible to link your ShipStation account to your PayPal,
but it will no longer be necessary when they become the embedded option?

Once upon a time, in the far distant past, PP had 3 account types. There was
a personal, there was a business, and there was something between the two. My
account is, and always has been, the one between the two. It may be no longer
available.

Premiere. I used to have a Premiere account and saw no benefit in upgrading
to Business even when it came to be used primarily for business. But there was
some snag or other a few years ago where something wouldn't work and the
only way to fix it was to pick Personal or Business and I went to Business.

The second model uses 3 LG 4019. 2 on Page 29 and 1 on Page 36. Then it uses
the 2 Black 3176 on page 21.

I see a lot of sellers selling them with the comment "hollow stud". You can
add it to the catalog. It's number would be 3626cpb0850.

I was not aware of this variant when I went through these sets before but when I parted one out last night I was. I didn't get a sealed pic.

I have never understood why an autograph that someone else got is valuable to
someone.

Pick any two minifigs heads in the catalog and there is a good chance the same

I guess if you have submitted hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds of them, you
may forget if you had already submitted one before.

I am a little embarrassed that Phoebe used "both" heads. They fool me when they

One of the catalog images shows a curved version (also noted in the additional

think it's more interesting than the normal straight blade. How common is
it? Does anyone have one another color, not just DBG?

It looks like a QC issue to me.
