Typo, that should be films plural 
Also I forgot to say, if you are looking for any specific LEGO that is not listed
feel free to message me. I have a LOT of stuff to go thru and can have a look
in the boxes. I don't have any complete sets, it's all fairly well organised
loose parts.

It is coming up to Christmas. I know that dishonest resellers/dropshippers are
a thing but isn't it more likely they might be gifts?

I think you'd have to describe them as yellowed and also indicate that you
have already given them a bath in hydrogen peroxide.
|
To my knowledge hydrogen peroxide does nothing in itself, you have to add direct
sunlight to it for a considerable amount of time.

If you know the type of wheel and can be confident spokes are included in search
terms you can just search “8 spoke wagon” but even if you don’t know the wheel
type ‘8 spoke’ will narrow things down a lot especially given many wheels don’t
even have spokes
15 spoke
12 spoke
10 spoke
9 spoke
8 spoke
7 spoke
6 spoke
5 spoke
|
I'm also surprised at the lack of the use of the word 'Rim' as all
those inner wheel parts should always include this term also many wheels connected
by an axle don't include that word either therefore something like this should
have a starter description of 'Wheel Rim Axle':-
Also wherever you have a left and right wheel connected (Dual wheels) give people
the option of narrowing down a search for these items therefore a baseline description
for this might look something like:-
'Dual Wheel Rim with Axle'

| Hi everyone, new to Bricklink but old to LEGO.
I'm Tim Drage, one half of pioneering brickfilm animation duo Spite Your
Face Productions. (we made 'Spider-Man: The Peril of Doc Ock', "Star
Wars: The Han Solo Affair','Monty Python and the Holy Grail in LEGO',
LEGO Studios animations etc)
Spite Your Face co-director Tony Mines sadly passed away earlier this year and
I'm selling some of our LEGO collection to clear space and raise funds to
remaster our old film (and present some unfinished projects for the first time)
in his memory.
Please check out my new bricklink store, there's some interesting/rare things
listed and I'll be adding a lot more in the near future:
https://store.bricklink.com/timdrage
Thanks
Tim

can someone please help me to identify the minifigure legs in the pictures? they

The problem is that such an item is available in only 2 colors (red and dark

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?
|
I have compared with other blue and medium blue items in my invetory and I can
assure you that the color is blue. Thanks again for your help!
|
Okay I guess it must just be the camera lighting as it looks like a different
colour in your photo

My experience is unfortunately that any attempt to restore the whiteness will
fail. And I have tried many things. They will all return to being yellowed after
shorter or longer time. They are bin material.
Selling a complete set with parts like yours will be unacceptable - unless it
ia very clearly mentioned in the description and accepted by the buyer - and
the price must be lowered accordingly - which leads to the best solution - that
you replace the yellowed parts before listing the set for sale. Alternately part
out the rest of the set as parts if you don't want to replace the damaged
parts.

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.

yes, it cannot be 970c00pb0239 because the one I have is plain blue (except for
