| Just a general comment for anyone else in this situation. When sellers have
huge quantities of items (like 10,000 plates listed) it's not usually an
accident where they're looking to give huge discounts. The higher quantity
of parts you have, the higher price you can charge. You won't be doing them
any favors by asking for a 50-75% discount on something that they'll surely
get their asking price for in a reasonable amount of time.
I think it's a long shot, but you could message the handful of sellers who
have the quantity of the parts you want directly and ask them for a discount.
Not likely to work, but better than a random forum post.

| | Hi all. I am desperately searching for a U.S. seller that has discount pricing

Colors and quantities I'd like are below. I will settle for a little less

Yellow: 10K

| | Hello Everyone,
I'm looking for some help with an issue. This is my first time posting in
the discussion so I'm not sure if I will do everything correctly. I placed
an order from [snip]
for 55 series 11 blind minifigure bags sealed at $5.94 each. It was a great price
which is why I purchased them all.
The seller filed a false OCR stating that he didn't have the inventory. Five
days later all the minifigure bags were reposted in his store as opened/verified
at a much higher cost than what each bag was listed for. Obviously he didn't
want to sell the items for what he had them posted and decided to cancel my order
and repost for more money.
What can I do to file a complaint against this seller or have them removed from
selling on Bricklink? Any help is much appreciated.
|
Removed from selling here because they changed their mind? I'll agree they
(assuming this is the entire story) didn't go about it the right way but
removed from selling seems a bit dramatic. What if the seller thought they were
sealed but later realized they had all been sliced open under the back flap?
There's lots of reasons why this could have happened, including your hypothesis.
One thing is for sure you bought 55 of them sealed and they have 63 series 11
opened sets for sale, so you can't possibly be 100% correct.
As another person said, add to your least favorites and move on. This isn't
some corporate entity you were hoping to score a crazy deal on, just some seller,
another person just like you who may have just made a mistake. Was everything
handled properly? I'm not sure, I'd guess no since you are still quite
upset about it. Sorry it didn't work out but there are much worse things
in life to worry about. Probably not the pitchfork-in-hand response you were
looking for.

| | Years ago, unofficial colors that turned up in the market were thought of as
test pieces. They were rare, and people collected them. Often, the color was
red.
The past couple of years however, have seen dozens of items show up, with hundreds

complete monochrome minifigures with all parts, headgear, and accessories in
transparent, and other highly unusual colors, and they had dozens of each. Definitely
not rare, but still at prices making them quite lucrative. Darth Vader helmets,
(both parts!) Star Wars blasters, and Thor's hammer Mjolnir were also available.
It is pretty obvious that this much variety, in these colors, are not mistakes,
or test pieces, but more like a small industry, producing thousands of parts.
It now seems, that these items are the product of a form of employee theft,
using Lego factor molds and materials so that the items would have the correct
Lego logo and numbers. This was more common in some countries than others. It
seems Lego took notice of this problem, and Bricklink apparently has been cooperating
with Lego in clearing these misappropriated, or counterfeit items from sale.
I have no doubt that many people purchased items in good faith, as a novelty,
or in hope of selling on as rare collectables. And those people sold to other
people who honestly believed they were getting a real, official, Lego product,
and put them up for sale in their store inventories. I expect some of these parts
will continue to show up in the supply chain for quite some time. Unfortunately,
the dishonesty of some people has probably damaged the collectable market for
true mistake or test parts.
Anyway, that's what I've concluded based on the observations and information
I've been able to gather. If you come across such parts, they should be reported.

Your analysis sounds correct.
Over the years, there have always been items that have leaked out the back door
of factories, parts warehouses, and model shops. Some of them are/were bona-fide
Test items and other rare colors that were made for legitimate reasons and found
in storage. Some fortunate people have had authorized access during special
tours and visits to sites like the model shops and have been lucky enough to
have been allowed to acquire items like this. Some have even been gifts or special
one-time sales deals to Lego User Groups (LUGS) and Lego Train Clubs (LTCS) or
other organizations or AFOL event coordinators. Some are even part of regularly
authorized deals.
These legitimate acquisitions (always) come/came with Non-Disclosure Agreements
that include DO NOT Sell stipulations. I believe that most of the people who
have been able to get items this way have honored these agreements. Over time,
however, and as items pass from the original holders, these old agreements sometimes
get forgotten, etc.
There are lots of examples of stuff like this, most of them I am sure very few
people know about and I won't disclose any specific examples here.
But this (new) phenomenon of (factory workers) intentionally producing unauthorized
items using LEGO assets with the intent to sell is all very different. Hopefully,
this type of activity does not put a firm end to all of the legitimate and authorized
channels that still exist. That would really suck.

Most genuine printed Lego minifigs have a square printed on the neckpiece (although
not all, judging by a quick glance at the catalog). Missing that print would
raise the flags immediately for me, especially on both of these torsos.

I have a bunch of rolling stock that are all copies of the same model. Rather
than having multiple wanted lists or a single wanted list with multiples of the
parts (e.g. 16 of a part for 4 copies of 4 parts each), it might be nicer to
manage as a bunch of copies of the same model within the wanted list.
This would still allow me to do "buy all" which would get all missing parts of
all copies in one go, but would allow me also to know when one copy is fully
ready to build even if I haven't got parts for *all* copies (so I can start
building that one while waiting for other orders to arrive).

Perhaps I am not understanding, but using the "Quantity" button at the top of
the page, you can multiply a wanted list by a constant factor. That way, you
can maintain a single wanted list for multiple copies of an item. I often do
this when I am building multiple copies of the same MOC.

| There are a few red flags in this situation:
1. The seller has only one feedback. This does not automatically make them a
scammer (after all, we all have to start somewhere), but it is advisable to use
caution when dealing with new and/or low-feedback sellers.
2. This particular item is priced significantly lower than similar items from
other stores. Again, not an automatic scam, but another reason to be cautious.
3. The seller wanted you to pay with an Amazon gift card instead of PayPal. I've
never used an Amazon gift card before, so I don't know how they work, but
PayPal provides buyers with a level of protection that gift cards generally don't.
Just some things to consider in the future when buying. This is true of all sites—not
just BrickLink.

You can't really do anything aside from leaving feedback and filing a NSS.
But if you haven't actually lost anything, a NSS won't stick anyway.

| Hello Everyone,
I'm looking for some help with an issue. This is my first time posting in
the discussion so I'm not sure if I will do everything correctly. I placed
an order from Blake_Files, store name Awesome Express, https://store.bricklink.com/Blake_Files#/shop
for 55 series 11 blind minifigure bags sealed at $5.94 each. It was a great price
which is why I purchased them all.
https://store.bricklink.com/Blake_Files#/shop
The seller filed a false OCR stating that he didn't have the inventory. Five
days later all the minifigure bags were reposted in his store as opened/verified
at a much higher cost than what each bag was listed for. Obviously he didn't
want to sell the items for what he had them posted and decided to cancel my order
and repost for more money.
What can I do to file a complaint against this seller or have them removed from
selling on Bricklink? Any help is much appreciated.
Stay Healthy and Happy Building!
Jason

| | | Cheeseontop17 mentioned we can do an Amazon Gift card, and this is where I paused
and thought about it. As I mentioned, every seller was 100% genuine when I've
messaged him so I told myself it should be fine.
|
That's the problem; I can't understand how a buyer can think it's
fine and safe to pay using an Amazon Gift Card, which, I suppose, implies no
proof of anything, no protection, etc. 
Especially with a Seller having ONE feedback while being a buyer.
I'm sorry to appear puzzled or not reply what some would expect.

| Most colors we can identify just by seeing,
Sometimes we can't be certain for some shades of blue or pink... then we
have our color identification gadget built out of legos..
If the color is not there then I go to my store and browse that color to see
if there is an unique part that I can color compare questioned part...
You might request such a thing from a store when ordering, finding a distinguishable
part of the same color. (this might be a certain torso, certain part that only
exist in single color or so on)
Of course the seller in question should do it's best and give the maximum
compensation for such an error... mismatching a color I think is more serious
an error a shop might make compared to some other faults.

I like the on other neutral feedback left for you where the guy states "If the
item says damaged, just be sure to look at the picture to see how damaged". Obviously,
by what he states, you did highlight that the item was damaged (good) and you
supplied a picture of the damage (even better) that he could look at before he
placed his order but did not bother to take the time to look at the picture
right in front of him and then blames you for it.

If by 'referenced' you mean that the color looks off, then yes!
We have to re-color many of the LEGO renders to have them resemble the actual

You're not alone. The most recent negative feedback that one of the largest

Some people just click somewhere on the screen where they see a checkbox or radio

First you need to ascertain whether the Neutral was intended or not as they may
have left good comments but still been a little disgruntled about something yet
not felt the need to publicize it. In truth given they are a new user they probably
don't realize that neutral is considered below par on Bricklink and so you
may need to explain this to them to see if that prompts them to want to consider
changing the feedback. If you explain to them that Neutrals are usually given
for minor issues this may prompt them to want to change it if they had no issues...

I sympathize with you. Every (starting) seller should have the The Periodic Table

or a similar tool.
I have quite a bit of trans bricks in my store and guarantee they are correctly

These colors are easily mistaken. Not all sellers are experienced enough to discern
the difference. Contact your sellers before you buy!! Explain that the colors
are extremely important to you and (politely) note that just refunding $.25 when
you've paid $15 to ship is not going to be a good workaround. If they don't
get back to you fairly quick with a confident reply, then move on. And check
feedback before ordering.
Good luck with your project! Math kids are the best. I have one myself.

I assume you're already aware, but you can run Buy All on multiple lists
- select it from one list, then on the results page check the others lists you
want and hit Apply to update the results.
To me, it seems that what you're suggesting would be way too niche to be
a worthwhile use of BL's limited development resource.

That works OK for me if your lists are significantly different. What I've
encountered with that mechanism trying to buy multiple copies of the one model
in the same purchase was that it didn't combine well and ended up only giving
me parts-to-purchase-count for one model, not all of them.
Now, that was a while ago when I used it and maybe it was broken at the time
I used it, but what I've done since is to buy one and then simply increase
the amounts in the cart based on the other lists and what's available and
needed... but it's a rather manual process that I'd prefer to avoid.

This pizza van?
It's definitely not under 8oz but I suspect the reason for the high shipping

be able to save a bit on shipping by asking the seller to unbox the set.

The faded gold problem is one of printed torsos, not stickered ones, so I'd
guess they should be easy to differentiate - you may have difficulties making
sure that a stickered torso is authentic, but I'd go with the state of the
sticker there: If it looks brand new, it just might be. After 30+ years, there
has to be some ragged edge on the sticker, especially since back then they were
made of paper, not plastic.
|
I am not talking about the stickered versions but the printed ones. It looks
like custom gold print you put on the torso and then remove the sticker.

with printing on one side of it, so white is the base color. Therefore, the color
for it is correct.
Are you sure that white is the base color for the other one?
Cheers,

Hi Randy,
I'm not sure, but I hope to be soon.
I messaged two sellers, one of them has both.
I'm curious if TLG switched colors when using the same printing.
Please hold it open.
Thanks,

Seems its the same cloth just that got sewed the green threads.

It seems to be, but I want to be sure before switching the color. I need to see
an image of the other side of the rug.

like that has to change if I cant tell tje difference.
What is your opnion on restored items and pricing? Can I trust sellers on here
to be honest about it?

The faded gold problem is one of printed torsos, not stickered ones, so I'd
guess they should be easy to differentiate - you may have difficulties making
sure that a stickered torso is authentic, but I'd go with the state of the
sticker there: If it looks brand new, it just might be. After 30+ years, there
has to be some ragged edge on the sticker, especially since back then they were
made of paper, not plastic.

How do i do that please?

I think you can't get them from only your country, it is all or none.
But to see which store has all or most of your items use the button Buy All on
top of your wanted list, there you can select to show stores of your country
only.

The last word of the reason could be it: counterfeit
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1322014
Those are Lego items made in Lego Factories in bulk by someone not authorised
with the purpose of resale.
It's not the same as if some prototype parts/colors get into the wild than
actually doing it in bulk.

You can't - simply because there is no such thing as the price for
a set. There are some options though:
You can download the entire catalog here:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogDownload.asp
but that does not include the price information from the price guide.
You can use advanced search here:
https://www.bricklink.com/search.asp
which can give you a list of all lots of the set for sale, sorted by price, like:
https://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?pg=1&shipCountryID=US&advOpt=Y&excFavL=Y&excStop=Y&sz=500&searchSort=C
Since each set is offered by multiple sellers, it will show up multiple times
in this list. There is no download option on this selection, so you are limited
to 200 lots per page of a 431.000 lot list (depending on your location filters).
You could use external software that caches this information.

Thank you very much for your help.

It is not just Samwise, many of your figures are priced quite high compared to
other sellers in your region. You might think it is a good idea to price high
initially and learn about pricing as you grow but a big down side is that people
find your store somehow, see you price on the rather high side and least favourite
your store. And that is forever unless they want to spend time later reviewing
their least favourite stores.
