| Bad practice and not normal.
We all find that for some inexplicable reason a part is missing on occasions
but I for one always inform the buyer and try to source from someone else so
I don’t let anyone down.
I offer to cancel if they prefer or ask for a few days to source the missing
part/s at my expense.
Most buyers are happy to wait a few days so that the order is complete, they
don’t have to order from another seller and incur extra costs.

| | The seller does not have all the pieces I bought so they ship the package without
telling me and after it is gone they let me know and refund the pieces.
It didn't show as shipped or even packed so I asked that they cancel the
order within 4 minutes of being told and I get told sorry it is already shipped
and if I want to cancel to just reject it and when they get it back I will get
a refund.
Well it is on the other side of the world so that would be well over a month.
What a bad way to do business

the black part with 4 2x2 plates hinged together, logo on the studs. Some of
the rest not Lego for sure but tossed them in when I still bother you for help

If I don’t re issue the parts the buyer demands a full order refund, and then
my 100% feedback will be ruined. What do I do ?? I have put the buyer on my stop

Please join me in congratulating Paul on this new appointment!

store now. Beautiful Mini figures mostly. After 10 minutes of my 5 kids shopping
and gathering $20 worth of stuff I noticed no "Lego" on anything or anywhere
in the store. Kind of made me mad so I asked the woman behind the counter about
it and was told they were not allowed by owner to mention the "L word" and they
had several stores and got most of the figures from China. The first 10 minutes
I was there she made no attempt to correct anyone that said Lego. She saw I was
upset and said "Mister I'm just trying to work and support my two kids".
I can't argue with that but am still mad after two days.

Sorry I can’t help with an order at present.
The exceptional items like the one I used for my store photo do sell for very
high prices, the main interest in something like this is from 2 x 4 3001/3001old
collectors although this is neither as it’s from the classic range, known as
slotted bricks.

Pharmaceuticals will do you far more harm.
Do you have any nice LEGO pictures to show us? Please...
I'm 47 currently - I'm starting to feel it, but I'm pushing back.
Eat heaps of fish and field mushies. They'll lube ya up.

I’ve always been interested fungus, some amazing shapes, colours, textures and
smells.
Found some deadly ones in the past and am never tempted to eat any of them I
find, too dangerous .
Just my luck to choose a destroying angel.
However I have eaten wild field mushrooms picked for me, enjoyed those and tried
a young puffball of a good size, not a fan.

I love puffballs, have you baked them or eaten fresh?
But yes, mushrooms can be tricky be safe.

| The standard ones will be from Denmark and North America ( Samsonite ).
Not sure for those with hollow studs ( hollow underneath )
The slotted I believe are from Sweden, Norway and Denmark

| | Thank you! I do recall seeing semi-transpant bricks from. Wrexham, now that you
mention it. Who produced your 4x4 corner parts?
In Off Topic, Stuart9 writes:
| | I think the Wrexham test site may have had one but not sure, others will probably
correct me on that one.
We have found that Lego has used many different size moulds over the years for
both test and production bricks.
Off Topic, molten.brick writes:
| | Did other companies have a similar test mould of only a four at a time print?
I only know of Bayer and BASF...
In Off Topic, Stuart9 writes:
| | It wasn’t a production mould, it was only meant for test bricks.
The workforce decided to make marbled bricks and when Lego found out they withdrew
the mould from the test company.
In Off Topic, molten.brick writes:
| | I only ask, because the number seems limiting considering the energy placed into
producing four two cent parts at a time. Weird...
In Off Topic, Stuart9 writes:
| | For that mould It was 4 as the F1 - F4 suggests.
Not all we’re marbled, some came in single colours.
I lose track but they do exist individually in both red and yellow.
In Off Topic, molten.brick writes:
| | Having seen your Flickr - how many Grangemouth bricks were printed at any one
press? F1-F4? or could there have been over twenty numbers?
