  76989 Horizon Zero Dawn Tallneck apparently in the works

No...fecking....way...

OMG - that would be fantastic. They should do a full Horizon Zero Dawn theme.
Epic game, would produce epic sets. Would buy and build them all.

https://www.brickfanatics.com/lego-gaming-horizon-zero-dawn-tallneck-set/

Absolutely instant buy... there are already a bunch of brilliant MOCs out there
associated with that amazing game (such as the Thunderjaw in the image I'm
going to build someday!)...!

  I was wondering if anyone is listing both there new and used Lego as used. I
can see a lot of benefit to it and very little reasons why I shouldn't.

There are two fairly obvious reasons:

It cuts the prices you can ask for the new parts (and still sell it).
It cuts the number of people likely to be interested.

My high prices and continued sales would refute that reasoning...

  Hi,

wondering if anyone has tried it and how it effected sales.

Thanks

Been doing that for years; it makes managing a massive inventory (I've maintained
over a million parts for years now) much simpler that way by myself... the only
items I will typically list as new are minifigures, cloth items, sticker sheets,
and a few various items (like stuff on sprues)... but the bulk of my parts is
listed as Used, even though many would be considered brand new; I find my Buyers
are always really happy to find that the "Used" items they ordered, are in like
new condition...

Still though, it makes managing a massive parts inventory easier as one inventory
("Used"), as opposed to two ("Used" & "New")...

  Trying to find info on the Action Comics poster that Lego released, presumably
around when the SDCC set came out. I haven't had much luck finding it in
the Gear section, anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

I'm guessing you mean this one?

I don't have one (found the image on the internet), but I have seen a framed
one before in person--which I thought was a custom, until I saw the LEGO
logo and references at the bottom of it (making it seem a legit LEGO-produced
poster)
, but I don't believe it's currently in the catalog (& there
may not be many of them out there regardless)...

  How big is your store? I'm trying to figure out how to classify shops by
size. I'm talking about shops that mainly sell parts.
I arrive at the following classification, from very small to very large:

1. very small store 1-500 parts
2. -----------------500-2500 parts
3. -----------------2500- 2500
4. -----------------12500-62500
5. -----------------62500-150000
6. -----------------150000-360000
7. -----------------360000-864000
8. very large store 864000-and more

Do you think this is useful? Apart from the two first classes (1-500 and 500-2500)
every next step is about 2,5 times the size of the previous one.

What do you think?

Apparently, I'm an 8; but I *feel* like a 4...

Hopefully it gives admins an answer on how to fix.
Thank you!

NP - hopefully your customers can work around it. It also explains why people
responding to your initial post were getting different results.


Yup can confirm, that I show the same error when accessing my cart from BrickLink
and not directly in your store.

-Pete

Seeing the same here (error from my cart, but not when in your store)...

  I suspect this is custom.

A couple of parts there that point to it being a custom... take this part:
 
Part No: 3959  Name: Minifigure, Utensil Space Gun / Torch
* 
3959 Minifigure, Utensil Space Gun / Torch
Parts: Minifigure, Utensil {Brown}
It came in a variety of colors, but based upon the photo, it is Brown (and it
didn't come in any similar color that could be confused with that, such as
Reddish-Brown)... and it was only produced in these two sets in that color:
 
Set No: 4729  Name: Dumbledore's Office
* 
4729-1 (Inv) Dumbledore's Office
429 Parts, 3 Minifigures, 2002
Sets: Harry Potter: Chamber of Secrets
 
Set No: 6094  Name: Guarded Treasury
* 
6094-1 (Inv) Guarded Treasury
95 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 2000
Sets: Castle: Knights Kingdom I
And in this "gear":
 
Gear No: 5924  Name: Photo Frame Legoland Castle
* 
5924 (Inv) Photo Frame Legoland Castle
Gear: Photo Frame & Holder: LEGOLAND Parks: Castle: Knights Kingdom I
None of which have anything resembling that build...
