If you can find a 3D model (Studio-file or LDraw-file) of the project, you could
get the partial parts list through Studio. Just delete everything you don't
need and go to [Model] [Model Information] or upload your edited Studio file
to Bricklink directly.
Bricklink's inventory system does not provide information about subbuilds

I hadn’t looked at how this one was built yet and I don’t see anything wrong
with it….
One thing I haven’t seen in official sets yet and that doesn’t work IRL but works
perfectly in CADs is using inverted brackets bottom to bottom (see pic below).
Some MOCs use this technique.
I’ve used it too in digital… and then was disappointed it didn’t work well with
real bricks (I used it only when there was no other link between the sides, so
that “only” makes a gap / misalignement, it doesn’t really stress the parts).
(Some have said it worked with clone brands….)

Or you need LEGO engineers at hand to check constraints and grip, like they do
in Billund.
Trying with real bricks is cheaper though

Une de tes listes a deux fois la même combinaisons pièce + couleur (deux lignes
pour la même pièce dans la même couleur), et ça bloque l’édition de TOUTES les
listes.
Ouvre tes listes une par une, il doit y avoir un message au bas de l’une d’elles
indiquant qu’il y a un problème.
Il te faut alors corriger le problème dans cette liste (effacer le doublon ou
la liste) pour pouvoir éditer les autres.

A couple factors could cause this.
If you paid with bank transfer, the funds could be held by PayPal until they

If the account is new for the seller, PayPal will hold funds for xx days to ensure

There’s a brand new Taxes topic for that, so I moved your post there

the VAT policy. I write regards something which has happened in the past and
now it feels a bit confusing.I took order in Indonesia, which was covered with
VAT, yet at the polish bourder i was charged same but i never paid attention
to this. What brickling charges this VAT for? does it cover everything? Is it
my fault for not reporting, that VAT was charged allready ? I feel like i was
double taxed in this case? I just dont understand this relation beteween European
regulation and internal bricklink rules.

Yes, it’s double taxation. If all had worked correctly, you shouldn’t have paid
at reception, only on BL.
| | The officer at the bourder saw my invoice
|
Are you sure of that?
Customs officers don’t check the paper paperwork, they only check the
electronic data. There’s way too many packages arriving every day to check all
papers. They only check the papers on a few random or suspect packages.
If your seller (or their postal services) didn’t correctly transmit the IOSS
number electronically, VAT was then deemed unpaid.
The thing is: electronic data is mandatory for importing in EU since a few years…
but some (many?) countries / postal services aren’t ready for transmitting the
IOSS: either the customer can’t enter it when they buy shipping or it’s not transmitted
correctly.
Have you tried to file a claim with Polish Customs? It appears it’s generally
a pain or nearly impossible, and they won’t refund associated fees, but it also
appears to have worked for some. So maybe worth a try.

Hi,
| | My first time posting here.
|
Welcome
| | I got a White Dragon Horse Jet (80020) set recently and something odd caught
my attention when building Mo's small craft.
In it, a technique is used to make a small frame for the craft, with stud options
to basically all sides. The core of this is specifically a 4733 piece attached
to the side of a 4070 (headlight) piece. As I progressed through the steps I
felt the final craft had a lot of tension on the frame and when disconnecting
a single piece other studs disconnected.
Never have I seen or done this before. I tried it out with other pieces I had
to the same result. Not that I have much of both those pieces lying around.
I left the craft unassembled as I was worried the pieces were getting to much
stress.
I tried looking up the technique but couldn't really find it. Recreating
it in Stud.io gives no warning at all, and the mere fact that this appears in
a 2021 lego set gives me the impression its totally legal. I am wondering what
more experienced builders think, thanks in advance.

I guess you’re talking about the step in the pic below.
Nothing illegal here. It’s perfectly in-system.
I don’t remember an exact other offical set doing the same but I’m sure there
is some, for instance in Architecture.
–––
A side note: even though Studio can give clues if something will work or not…
it’s also not perfect. Or, actually, it’s too perfect: the parts are exactly
in-system and don’t include any of the tolerances the real bricks have.
For instance:
— in Studio, a 1x1 brick is exactly 1 stud¹ wide and there’s no gab between two
put side by side,
— in real life, a 1x1 brick is slightly less than 1 stud¹ wide because otherwise
you wouldn’t be able to build (too tight) and even if you could hammer them in
place, you wouldn’t be able to remove them (they would have fused together).
Studio (= LDraw) parts are also simplified (sometimes in order to be in-system).
4070 is the best example of that: IRL, the side stud goes farther than the lip,
in Studio, they are flush. (And the Studio part has a square bottom hole; IRL
it’s rounded.)
So, TL;DR: Studio is a clue, not the law
(¹ “1 stud” = “1 module”: if you make a very long assembly of long parts and
measure the distance between the centers of the two end studs and divide by the
number the studs minus one (posts and intervals…), you get that distance, 8mm.
A real brick has about 0.1mm on each side.)
