Ground advantage labels come with $100 of free insurance.

In Shipping, Ziegelmeister writes:
  I'm not sure if this is a big deal or not. While trying to purchase standard
first class postage this week, it's been printing out ground advantage labels.
Allegedly they both take the same amount of time to deliver.

Not sure if any other US based stores are experiencing this and/or if it's
been an issue.

I purchased a set of the first three Maersk sets (1650-1,1651-2,1552-1) from
a former Maersk Employee. It had 2 copies of Black 3002old Brick 2 x 3 without
Cross Supports. Which is why

  Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 1650  Name: Maersk Line Container Ship
* 
1650-1 (Inv) Maersk Line Container Ship
220 Parts, 1974
Sets: Boat

* Change {2 to 1} Part Black 3002old Brick 2 x 3 without Cross Supports
* Change {11 to 12} Part White 3002old Brick 2 x 3 without Cross Supports

Comments from Submitter:
This set has two competing designs for the main models: the box cover and the instructions shows a build with a shorter funnel, while if you follow the steps in the instructions it requires one extra 2 x 3 brick. After surveying multiple sets the pattern is for sets in the best condition to come with only x1 black 2 x 3 brick with the stickers attached to a white 2 x 3 brick. Personally I suspect the copies with the stickers attached to a black brick are probably the result of people building the set like depicted on the instruction cover.

I do recognize that you aren't building the contents into something, but
it makes sense that all the ornaments be together.

We will discuss them and consider adding them to the next list of catalog moves
in May of next year.

  Hello
The actual parts are real Lego, but I can't find the patterns. Could it be
that they are custom prints?
Thanks in advance!

it can happen if you need 5 of a part but the seller requires you to buy in multiples
of say 25.

  All,

When I use the auto-select feature when attempting to buy all items from a wanted
list, it brings back too many parts. For Instance, when I select the North Pole
list, it comes back at 2700/1989 (127%) of the list. Is there some sort of error
causing this?

  Hello All

With the change in password on Bricklink I find that I am unable to import orders
into Brickstore due to the password change.

For some reason I can not find where to update the password on Brickstore.

I must jus be missing it.

Where do I update the password on brickstore? Any help would be appreciated.

The 2 instructions show them to be the same part number.

Maybe someone cut them shorter for a project? I've done that before with
a razor knife.

In Catalog, WOLKsite writes:
  All of my 23221 are noticeably different in length (and longer than what the
name describes). Is this a common issue?
Four of these (all except the shortest one, the ones with the brighter green
rubber bands - I don't believe those are LEGO bands) are from a used copy
of 7690. The other one is from my 2007 copy of set 7691.

Of course, it is very hard to make these not bend so much... The baseplate in
the image is 48x48. The brick separators mark the lengths when straightened outs.
This increased length has pretty significant impact on 7690, putting quite a
lot of stress on the bricks. The shortest one is just short of 33 studs long,
the longest is 40.

LEGO describes these as 252 mm (31.5 studs).
