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

  Rounded up a couple of parts that I can't seem to find. Really curious about
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
once again. The post "feels" Lego but can't find it, the gear-piece as well
but can't locate it.

Hope you don’t mind me asking.

Was this a newer buyer or an established one ?

  A buyer orders an order £25. 3 months later complaints 2 small items £3.50 each
item is missing. I can supply 2 more items but I know 100% they were in the order.
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
list.

Many aren’t true sales but there are genuine examples.

I hate all these false ones but I don’t think it’s really possible to do anything
about it and I don’t think anyone should try.

Everyone is free to price things at whatever price and therefore free to discount
as they like, it’s a free market

Am I correct in saying that I don’t need to take any action, I don’t sell €10,000

enough.

I do have on-site payment.

(just like Ebay, Etsy, displate, cgtrader) and I`m sure most other online sales

I really want to rant about this, but what's the point. My trade has been
moving from BL to BO more over the past year anyway.

Still odd that this brick isn't in the Modified category...

It went unseen?
Or it’s (or was) considered a standard brick?

BTW, what’s the use of the hole?  To pass a string through?

They are absolutely everywhere here too, street market stalls, numerous sellers
at carboot sales and more.

You need to check every minifigure that you find, in detail.

  I went to my local flea market this week end and there is a new Lego knockoff
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.

I know what you mean but as you say, best we keep politics out of it.

If we all look out for our own part of the planet it’s a start.

All the best

I love puffballs, have you baked them or eaten fresh?

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

The best authorities on these are on Flickr, check out WRMe2 ( I think that’s
right, name is Wouter ), Bendix ( Beryll ) and never forget Maxx.

I’ll check the details of their Flickr names and let you know, haven’t used them
for awhile, they are all very nice people and extremely helpful.

There are others and I apologise to anyone I’ve not listed or I’ve misspelt,
I’m doing this from a very overloaded memory at the moment.

If in doubt of sites or names just check out replies to my photo’s and you’ll
find them.

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.

producing four two cent parts at a time. Weird...

Not all we’re marbled, some came in single colours.

I lose track but they do exist individually in both red and yellow.

Hopefully I will have a much bigger range again sometime in early 2022, both
vintage and modern, new and used.

Plans to double in size at that point, fingers crossed, I have the stock and
just need time to recheck counts of existing stock and manually add new stock.

I will have a lot of 2 x 4 test bricks and slotted bricks, windows and doors
in different sizes to list.

If you like the corner 4 x 4’s, I have some variations of these to list.

Just my luck to choose a destroying angel.

However I have eaten wild field mushrooms picked for me, enjoyed those and tried

I love puffballs, have you baked them or eaten fresh?

But yes, mushrooms can be tricky be safe.

I have mainly new and used parts, a few other items but far more to come in
2022.

I’m relocating at the moment and everything is packed away, I cannot get to anything
and cannot fill any orders at all, just not possible.

I could give you a password to take a look but only on the understanding that
an order is not possible, hope you understand.

  What've you got for sale inside your locked shop exactly?
I wouldn't mind a quick look in there. Even if that's all it was.

  Not sure how long it would take, not too long if you just check out the pics
but if you open each one you’ll see many a discussion on these items.

There are a number of others that do the same and much more, just check out the
other posters, that’ll keep you going for months.

Standard sets had minifigs with trans dark blue visors.
Dacta futuron had one with trans light blue and another set had one with trans
red visor if I remember correctly.

Not keen but that may have been me worrying that I’d got it wrong and I might
make myself ill, perhaps it just wasn’t the best method.


I’ve read that only young ones are edible and if they have started to yellow
then it can make some people feel sick.

Older ones that have changed in the centre beyond yellow are inedible I believe.

  Hello,

I am looking for the corresponding reference for these two DUPLO pieces. The
yellow one has the numbers 01 1. The red one 03 3. Both date from the 80's,
the yellow one is stamped 1980.

Thank you in advance for your feedback.

Sincerely,

Indigolite

It reminds me of the joke:

A compasionate mortician talks to a lady burying her husband and learns it’s
the third one.
— Oh, that’s terrible, and they all died?
— Yes, the first one died of mushroom poisining.
— Terrible, terrible.  And the second one?
— Mushroom poisoning too.
— Oh my, oh my.  And this one too?
— No, this one fell in the stairs… He didn’t like mushrooms.

Anyone know what fungus ?

Hard to see in the pic, but it looks to be a mold of some type, which are multicellular,
filamentous fungi. Heads up, there is a pink mold looking bacteria that grows
on wood in moist conditions as well. But you already seem to be aware of being
careful about such things.

It is interesting, whatever it turns out to be. Thanks for sharing.

Colour change much more severe than that of certain Lego colours.

All nice marbled pieces, there are collectors for these, however the 2 x 4 3001/3001old
are those that are more valuable.

  Hi,

According to these pictures, are these parts marbled?

Green, gray, red and white parts really look like some other marbled parts I
have seen online.

Really not sure about the 3 on the right:

The blue 2x3 brick has a red / black pattern, so 3 color mix.
The black 1x1 brick has some blue on one face and a little inside.
The blue technic plate has some black inside and outside.


Thanks!
