* Add 2 Part 996ac15blue Blue Electric, Wire 4.5V with four Blue 1-prong Connectors Hollow Pin, 15 Studs Long
Comments from Submitter:
Set 113 is missing the electric wires in the inventory. I assume the parts that are in my set are the correct part number.

I just checked and the part number for the blue with yellow wheels is 2312.
It also has the numbers 1-09.
For the blue with red wheels the numbers underneath are exactly the same.

Thanks for checking.
Uploading some pictures so that you and the Admin's better understand my
question.
Will have to do some research on this.

So probably the same thing for these sets, too?

The 1880 instructions show the 7049, and 9354 is a sealed source (plus another
soft confirmation with the addition of the alternate head). The end date of 7049
would be 1992.
So, no, I think the only error* is in the 1996 set.
*That is, the only error in the context of our conversation. I will never say
there are no more errors on BrickLink!

The box image (and likely the official part count) shows a total of eight assembled
parts (see attached image) and BrickLink's inventory shows 40 parts taken
apart. It seems to me like this has resulted in the set inventory being inflated
by 32 parts.
Surely these wheels didn't come in sets disassembled like this?

The reason i ask for this is that i have some
with "Open Hitch End"
Blue Base with Red Wheels Mold 013
Red Base with Yellow wheels Mold 011(no part number) Mold 014 (part number molded
backwards)
Yellow Base with Red wheels. Mold 013, Mold 024 (part number 4883003)
It may be possible that those two 2312* and 4883* have got the part number switched
at some points.
Thanks.

Comments from Submitter:
Just got this set factory sealed. I suppose this should be a cautionary tale about inventorying sets based on set pictures. In all fairness, the current BL catalog picture is horrible - I'll try to fix that. Set also includes an activity card of sorts which I'll add to the catalog and then to the inventory.

I'm pretty sure it is, actually. If the purchase qualifies for buyer protection,
the buyer is protected (regardless of whether Paypal can successfully recover
the funds or not). They changed their terms while back.
| Wonder if there's a way for BL to work with PP so that new BL
sellers have their funds held at PP for a number of days until buyers confirm
receipt. And maybe it needs to be receipt by buyers who have a minimum of X
feedback or Y years of membership, so it's not sham buyers validating delivery.
Question is whether the burden dissuades more legit new sellers than it thwarts
shams. Considering the surplus of sellers here, I'd think it worth a try.
|
Having an escrow-type way to hold funds was part of the plan that was rolled
out at the summit in Chicago a year and a half ago. When BL discussed it on the
forum, a lot of people on the forum complained very loudly that it was a terrible
idea, and we haven't heard a lot about it since then. It's too bad, because
I thought (and still think) that it's a fantastic idea. (A side benefit of
it is that BL could LOWER our Paypal fees, as well.)

BrickLink could never hold Paypal funds in escrow. IANAL, but I don't see
how that is legal, for one thing. It would also be a huge burden on BrickLink
to track all that money and not have it disappear due to simple (keypunch) error,
hacking, theft, mismanagement, or imcompetence.
For another thing, it won't work for logistical reasons -- Sellers need
access to the Paypal payment in order to ship the order -- the verified address,
etc, for both the buyer protection and seller protection to work.
Also, you cannot expect sellers to front all the postage costs with the funds
in escrow. If a parcel costs 20 bucks to ship, you can't expect the vendor
to handle that cost while there is money for the transaction that the seller
cannot access.
It's bad enough sellers already subsidize shipping on each and every Paypal-paid
order, but expecting them to ship without the cash up front simply won't
work.

THEY HAVE COMPLETED 10 successful transactions as buyers- the scams by 0 feedback
sellers (that pop everyday) will stop by a high margin.
The beauty of this is that they can't start multiple new seller accounts
to prop up their buying feedbacks too.
I think this will work...

Yea look at me I have a whole 4 buying feedback, one recent. I had like 73-74
feedback from selling before I ever bought anything lol. Could be a reallllllllllly
long time before I get to 10. Probably not I got about 60+ want lists for sets
that I need to start ordering for. But if not for those, it could be years. lol

OK, there are definitely 2 versions of instructions. The "rebuild" involves 2
sets of hinge plates, a white 4 x 4 plate, a black 4 x 8 plate, the black 2 x
4 technic plate, plus the compensation loss of other pieces. Alternate instructions
are on the way.
