Re this fig

 
Minifig No: cty1138  Name: Skateboarder - Male, Lime Hoodie, Blue Legs, Dark Azure Helmet
* 
cty1138 (Inv) Skateboarder - Male, Lime Hoodie, Blue Legs, Dark Azure Helmet
Minifigures: Town: City: Traffic

Should he not have a fair part instead of a helmet (as in the set image)? Just
sold him on BO and it is listed with hair there, luckily I had another fig I
could rob the hair from.

Yeah that's a better shot, looks like TLB. I collect colour and varients
of colours and just checked my TLB for 1x1 studs and there are quite a few I've
collected from lighter to darker shades, definately not that consstant. Good
idea about the UV light, definately a tool worth having. Fun too lighting bricks
up in the dark

Sorting studs thought they were all TLB but they're not. Are the ones on

I understand its hard to tell from a photo but TMB seems to be the only fit.

Thanks but Arghhhh! I just found some TMB parts and they don't match, so
in this photo it's TLB on top TMB on bottom and the ones I thought were TMB
in the middle which clearly aren't. Could they just be a off TLB?

If you are planning on selling then just buy something from a store that you
can resell when you open a store. Also as a seller it is really important you
know how the system works from a buyers perspective so making a purchase makes
sense.

  Hey everyone,

Im new here and looking around how the market works.
I tried to figure out how the selling part works but I cant get to that page.
I need a positive feedback. Is there any way that someone could help me out with
1 positive feedback?
Would be really appreciated.

Kind regards,

Wes

Find something you want to buy, find a seller with it, check if they leave feedback,
buy what you want, pay for it, receive it, leave feedback and they will probably
leave one for you.


Thank you for the replies. But like I stated is there a way that someone can
give me one postive feedback without buying anything (and hope for 1 feedback)?

I would create a shipping method 'Leave Order Open' and get them to let
you know when they are done adding to it. That way you invoice them once when
they are finished.

  I received this message today:

I am from Saudi Arabia and I have a USA forward mail box in Delaware. Also interested
in your store and I have some questions before placing an order.

-Some questions:
1) Can you hold the shipment for a while after receiving the payment (as I might
add more orders to be shipped together and save on international shipping cost)
?


2) I might place more orders during the hold period that can be shipped together
when I let you know that I am ready to be able to ship the orders. (to reduce
shipping cost)

I have no clue how to handle this.

Yes and no, I would use this system instead, 0001, 0002 etc etc (so draw 100
will be 0100) That'll work better.

  Hi all,

My remarks are mixed up every time I pack orders and it's really annoying
so I decided to fix my remarks.

I've been labling my remarks starting at 01, 02, 03, 04 to 010 etc etc 022
etc 045 etc 099 and 0100

Will this fix my remarks so that when I get orders, they will be chronologically
shown?

Am I doing this right?

I didn't notice that description, it would be better moved to the main listing
under the fig like they normally list additional notes.

In Buying, Nubs_Select writes:
  
  Ok. Good to know! I'm still learning about all things Lego Marvel.

No worries! If you look at this part of a Minifigures description that you can
see in the photo it says if it's been found with multiple head variants.
In addition, there aren't any product listings on bricklink for fake lego
(this is different than if a seller sells fake products which will get them banned)
Also this applies to any Minifigure not just marvel.

  
My son got me into this and so I got him Deadpool as a present.

Exciting! Hopefully he enjoys it!

  
He doesn't know it yet and I just want to make sure it is Lego and I didn't
get sold a dud. =)

Sounds like a good plan!

It's genuine Lego but I'm not too sure how it would affect the value.
Technically if sold here on Bricklink it wouldn't be the correct part but
on eBay may be okay. As it is a fairly valuable fig I guess whoever was to buy
would want the correct parts.

In Buying, mdvmes writes:
  Thank you for the quick reply.

Do you happen to know if the blocked open type depreciates the value of the Deadpool
minifig and is it still classed as Lego or custom?

  Hi,

I just wanted to ask the community if anyone owns a Lego Deadpool minifig.

I won an eBay bid on one last week and it arrived today.

The feet, torso, and neck all have Lego logo on it, but the head is hollow and
open at both ends.

Can someone please confirm that the official Lego version does have Lego written
on the top of it please?

Thanks in advance.

The blocked open version comes from the same set that Deadpool comes so looks
like his head might have been mixed up at some point.

Do any UK sellers know if you can bulk adjust stock in Brickstore to reflect
the UK 6th month ave. I've got it close but think it is still pulling in
the global 6th month average.
Thanks

It looks more dark grey / pearl dark grey to me, especially as the old pearl
dark grey has a greeny tint to it.

It's a wonderful collection Maxx, an enevy for any 2x4 collector for sure.
Hope you've glued them to the table

  The Dutch LEGO museum in Grootegast will be showing my 2x4 test brick collection.

In a temporary exhibit you can see my collection for real.

If you are visiting the museum and are tired of all the great sets, wooden LEGO,
old sets, new sets etc etc. the museum has to offer.
Why not take a break and go see something nice and quiet

The 26th I will be there too, if you are going, let me know and I can maybe meet
or leave something nice behind.

Enjoy,
Maxx

I would leave them all feedback, it might encourage them to leave it back. I
always leave it as soon as I ship, not much point in holding back leaving it.
Normally I wouldn't worry about it as it's common people don't leave
you any but if you want to get your score up a little you could send them a quick
note to ask them (once you've left yours first).

In Problem, Upstate_Brickz writes:
  Greetings Bricklink,

I am a new store with only 6 orders so far. the last 4 orders I sent out have
all received their parts, but haven't left any feedback. It's been a
few days for most of them and I don't think they are going to leave any.
I have posted in my terms that I will leave feedback if they do. The 4 buyers
were all new, most of them with zero feedback. Should I leave the buyers positive
feedback anyway since they were all perfectly fine and maybe it looks better
for my biz if I do, or should I stick to my terms and not leave any because
I really need their feedback too? You would think if they were trying to get
the feedback to become sellers they would be aware of all this. I also don't
want to look like I forgot to leave feedback. Let me know what you think!

Thanks,

Upstate_Brickz

Same - for the last few weeks this is happening to us and I've been refunding
loads of overpaid postage charges.

In Technical Issues, bricksinbloom writes:
  For the last week all of the orders coming in have reverted to small parcel when
they would easily fit in a large letter. We are obviously refunding the customer
for this and losing out on the PayPal fee. This definitely feels like a bricklink
error as I haven't changed anything and it happened suddenly.
We are loosing a fair amount over this and also we will be losing custom due
to the postage being too high. Can bricklink please confirm that this is something
they are working on?

Personally for me, two seperate systems in two different physical locations.
Just to eleminate any risk of mixing the two. It does mean it can create a space
issue.

In Selling, Leftoverbricks writes:
  Hi,
I'm thinking about selling more used bricks from my private collection in
my shop.

Currently I have 98% new and 2% used parts so it's quite easy for me to organize
by putting all used parts in a separate drawer, no matter what they look like.
Used parts are roughly sorted by type: brick, tile, technic and so on.

I wonder how other sellers organize their new and used lots.
Do you put them in the same parts bin, separated in different bags (new vs. used)
or do you have two separate systems, one with new and one with used parts?
Or something else?

All thoughts welcome!

Yes but if you pop all the bubbles it takes up much less space

In Off Topic, legoman77 writes:
  Have you ever wondered which side of the bubble wrap goes toward the item being
shipped? So I went on-line and looked it up. The flat side goes towards the
item. The bubbly part towards the box.
Also, do not contact U-line or any other bubble wrap sources and ask for a refund
because 17 bubbles in the roll were popped. Customer service was not very nice
to me when I asked.

The part number for both is #30320, but the print is mirrored. Thanks in advance!

As well as the light suggestion which is really important I'd get yourself
a stack of 2x4 bricks in the old and new greys (light and dark) as well as the
reddish browns and browns. If you stick your bricks together when you want to
compare your light / light bluish grey part putting them to the stack of bricks
really makes it stand out as the new and old colours will stand out next to each
other. I wouldn't be without my stack of 2x4 bricks for double-checking colours.

Personally, if it was me I'd refund his original order as it just feels the
right thing to do but not too sure otherwise as a bit unusual. It doesn't
sound like they would give you a neg by the sounds of what you've said.

  Hi

I have this weird case where the buyer ordered from my store and send me his
own shipping label with tracking number. He said he had a better price on his
side. I say ok, no problem.

Order was returned to me because the buyer failed to pick it up at the post office
within 14 days. Of course I have to pay fees on the returned package.

I contacted the buyer a first time to inform him of the returned package and
the fees. He tells me to keep the order and that he will recontact me.

A few days ago I recontacted him again because I'm closing my store temporarily
for the holidays and asked him clearly if he wants me to cancel the order and
refund the money or if he wants me to ship it again, and charge him shipping
and the extra fees.

He said to cancel the order but keep his money. I'm not sure what I should
do, especially since the amount of the order is a few dollars more that the fees
that I had to pay. I don't want to risk any negative feedback or recourse
against me, etc.

Thanks for your advice.

I've got a book called Lego Color Guide by Christoph Bartneck because I'm
into collecting Lego colours. The back of the book says "...ultimate reference
for 180+ colors that the Lego company produced ober the years." So quite a few.

If it were me I'd part them out as it will be more profitable, unless you
need a fast return on your investment and they are particularly in demand sets
of course. It'll take a lot longer to sell all the parts compared to selling
the whole set but it depends on the store business model you have developed.

  Dear Brickfriends,
I have a question for you. I just bumped today into some sets of Lego Movie 2,
at a 60% discount sale. They are NIB, sealed, but the boxes are slightly damaged.
Would you suggest to part out and sell the parts or to try to sell them as whole
sets?
Is there anyone more experienced who has a good suggestion to give?
Thanks!

Yes, thank you. I wondered about Rebrickable but thought that was more geared
towards sets.

I have been thinking of asking for that feature here. Definitely ought to be
in the seller tools.

I guess you could do it at rebrickable but you'll need to enter all of the
pieces.

Hi, can anyone help with the diameters of pneumatic hoses, please?

I have a huge amount to list and I have noted some are thinker than the Bricklink
catalog of 4mm. I understand the length can vary as Lego used to supply a 'whole'
length with the user needing to cut to the correct size.

I have some that vary in diameter from 4.3 / 4.4mm and some that are slightly
smaller than 4mm (3.7/3.8). Would this variance be normal for this part?

Many thanks.

  Hello there,

Just a thought everyone.

I’ve just taken a couple of Lego kits out of the washing machine (which if you’re
not into Lego, may sound rather odd!?)

As I lay the bricks out to dry, I needed to separate a few that have randomly
joined together. This made me think of the infinite monkey theorem.

This states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for
an infinite amount of time will almost surely type any given text, such as the
complete works of William Shakespeare.

My thought/question is – if you had a washing machine run an infinite number
of wash cycles, with the same kit, would you, on one occasion find that the bricks
have joined together in the correct order and the kit is correctly built?

For more detail, have a look at this page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_monkey_theorem

Anyone able to prove the theorem?

Regards

Mark

  Over the years my knowledge of what is Lego and what is another brand (or fake
Lego as I like to call it!) has increased dramatically. But today I found another
piece that I had thrown into the "get rid of Megabloks pile" was actually Lego.

This is the piece (I remember also throwing out a dark red one away about 6 months
ago):

 
Part No: 22411  Name: Minifigure, Plume Feather Ponytail
* 
22411 Minifigure, Plume Feather Ponytail
Parts: Minifigure, Headgear Accessory

The first piece that I recall not knowing was Lego only to find out later (once
it was given away in the fake Lego pile) that it was:

 
Part No: 58176  Name: Bar with Light Bulb Cover (Bionicle Barraki Eye)
* 
58176 Bar with Light Bulb Cover (Bionicle Barraki Eye)

So I am asking others to share which pieces they can remember that they though
were not Lego. Hopefully this can help me an others not make the same mistake.

Probably someone has already made a list of these pieces already!!!

LOL, this one made me chuckle

Ok, so there's this setting in My Store - Settings - Management called
"Show price guide as a summary (pop up)."

When they remade the inventory pages in new code, we had a silly situation where
checking the box would result in having the pop up in the one version, and the
full page in the other version. Unchecking it would do the reverse. I had reported
that long ago.

Seems now they "fixed" it by making *BOTH* pages respond in the wrong way
:

When you UNcheck the box, you DO get the popup version. When you CHECK the
box, you get the FULL PAGE version.


Let's say that at least it's good to see that Bricklink has been putting
"some" work into it, and that the old and new version of the pages finally respond
the same way...

So the answer to your question is: Uncheck the popup box, and you will get the
popup again

Possibly if they have been inventoried. Look at the set that the sticker sheet
applies to then look at the Item consists of which will show a breakdown of all
parts. Go to the very bottom and if they are inventoried they will be there.

You get this a lot with LBG, it looks a bit washed out and almost light grey
(but is LBG). With these parts, if they are very noticeable I create a new lot
and keep them separate and then in the notes just say that these parts are a
little washed out and almost resemble the older light greycolour. I don't
think it is so much discolouration but rather just the material used at certain
times / plants.

  Hi,

lately I'm having some problems with selling LBG parts. I believe they are
(discolered) LBG, but the buyer thinks it's LG. I send the buyer the parts
again in LBG free of charge, so this should be solved. But the difference between
discolored LBG and LG parts is sometimes very minor.

An good example is 2x 6192 I have. If you see them in a pile of LBG, they do
not seem LBG at all, more LG. They blend in nice in a pile of LG. However this
parts does not exist in LG in a set according to bricklink.
This part is being sold for €.10 to €.20 in LBG and €6 to €8 in LG.

How do I put this part for sale?
How can I you tell the difference between (discolered) LBG and LG?

You could list them as a custom item or a good description of what it is under
its proper listing. There's a call for everything Lego - sometimes it takes

I have a bunch of minifigs of unknown origin/set/year/theme. It would be cool
to find them in the BL inventories so I can:

- recombine them how they shall be
- find out what sets the came from
- get missing parts from BL

Trouble is that the category "minifig-torso-assembly-decorated" has 4k items.
There is no option to SORT by COLOR, even this data is in the database of BL.

When not knowing the origin of the item, the basecolor (of body and arms) is
the only thing I know for sure, so I would like to narrow down the list by this,
then look over the pictures until I find which one it is.

Tried this in Brickstore, it also does not allowing sorting this category by
color. Also same in add-brick in rebrickable.
