It is OK to sell faded used parts either as parts or in sets as long as the description
of the item for sale accurately describes the condition. You can use the extended
description and include words such as "many of the white parts yellowed/faded
but otherwise good condition". Obviously price accordingly.. IMO taking off the
price of replacing those parts would be a good basis.

| | Hello,
can someone please help me to identify the minifigure legs in the pictures? they
are blue "Hips and Legs with Black Shoes Pattern", which is very similar to item
970c00pb1267 "Hips and Legs with Black Shoes Pattern".
The problem is that such an item is available in only 2 colors (red and dark
blue), while the legs I have are BLUE.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I've always suggested that when there isn't any defining print detail
and only two plain tones of colour (be that printed or dual molded) we should
be able to locate them using a simple search term such as two-tone legs but others
seem to prefer that we guess what the black area is meant to represent be that
boots, shoes, sandals, slippers trainers, socks, feet etc...
However is your item found under black feet....
and that was one of the last searches I tried after almost giving up myself!

actually the colour you have looks more like medium blue rather than blue so
perhaps its not yet in the catalog?

searching for 'black feet' might help
