More inventory, minifigures, minifigure parts.
Also your shipping cost is way too expensive. $7.70 to ship a 3 ounce package
from Jersey to CT in almost double cost if you purchase the label online.

There is a hair piece covering where all the printed hair would be. And as far
as the stubble, it may be worn off but can't tell from the photo.
Take a better photo of just the head without the hair piece.

a question for the Sellers out there. When a lot for sale has a number of items
just slightly more than what I need, I always buy out the rest of the lot thinking
that I was helping the Seller by cleaning out those parts for them. As a result,
I then have some more off the shelf parts in my collection for my building purposes.(ie.
I need 4 of the part and the seller has 7 so I buy all 7).
Is my thinking clear on this or does it help the Seller to retain those parts

if my logic may have been making their store seem "smaller" to some degree

So you make a train by attaching the motor to the bottom and adding wheels, on
top goes a battery pack and you hide it with the exterior of the train. You will
also need a remote that is compatibel with the motor. Do I understand it correctly?

add wheels to the motor.

yes the motor needs power and you hide the battery inside the train compartment.

yes certain motor use certain controllers.
This might be the cheapest solution to motorize it but you need to check if the

Since you want to go this route and put us on blast I will try to defend me and
my incredible staff... and by doing so, you may find yourself on a few more stoplists.
Just because you paid for your order doesn't make you a great buyer. We
stop listed you because ...
1. Since placing your order you've sent us 25 Bricklink messages and 8 direct
to email messages (see screenshots). Anything from special requests to now harassing
and calling us idiots.
2. We went out of our way to help find the parts you wanted for a 100+ lot /
1300 + part order. Two people spent 3 hours each searching for exact molds you
requested (not even true BL variations). Some of the requests are confusing and
as soon as we'd figure out the first request we'd have 3 more. Oh and
trying to decipher some of your messages was near impossible.
3. After receiving your order you gave us no margin for error. A better move
for you in the future (for other sellers) might be accepting what you received.
Please note we sent you the correct parts, just not some mold that's not
even considered a variation in the Bricklink Catalog.
4. I looked back on your other 9 orders and they have no doubt been just as challenging
as the last. That was the icing on the cake.
In the end, we completed the order by refunding and/or sending more parts out
as you requested.... ONLY THEN DID I STOP LIST YOU. I'm fine with you leaving
negative feedback. I'll take that "L"
And for anyone who chose to read this far ... I'd like to apologize on behalf
of castlevania64 for wasting your time.

Holly, that made me dizzy TRYING to read that. Those were some crazy requests
and complaints and for a MOC? You think MOCs would have some leeway on mold variants,
as they aren't an offical set.

I am sure the seller was not aware of those addition costs, customs cost and

You should invoice shipping cost before pulling the order. The order should will

You could put them in a small unventilated room and chain smoke cigarettes.

Agreed, LEGO need's to investigate and address this.
And really what would stop fakers from using the LEGO logo? Look at fake sneakers
there are sneakers that look similar to actual Nike's and Jordan but don't
us the trademark names and then there is 100,000's that copy the sneaker
the closest it can using trademarked names and logos.
Whenever there is a company doing billions in sales a year, there is someone
willing to invest $100,000 to produce a mold to try to cut into that companies
sales, even if it means breaking copyright laws.
Yes there has been different molds and looking LEGO logos over the years but
this is different and LEGO and BrickLink need to get to the bottom of it.

Just wondering what your biggest regrets were as a seller?
I can name two myself.....
Number 1.........
I remember being in a store here in Australia (you would call them a big box
store in US), and the set
was on super sale for $300 AUD. I asked about them and they said they had 8
i could buy if i really wanted too. I thought about it, thinking they could
have future value and said no. Now they are selling at the cheapest for $1000
AUD.
Oh well.
Number 2........
My other regret would be receiving the Yoda Lightsaber as a GWP with purchase.
For some unknown reason I decided to part it out when i received it and now it
is selling for $300 AUD plus.
But i did do the inventory for the set so we are all a winner 
So what was your biggest regret/stuff up/mistake........?????

Mine would be this new in the box
as well as a prototype Yoda on the street cube

AS long as they aren't off the part (so no dirt is on them) I take an e-xacto

Be careful not to cut the sticker.

As recently as two months ago, we had a backlog of items going all the way back
to February of last year. We are now caught up to November of last year, and
we are trying very hard to get to the rest. If you had submitted the items six
plus months ago, they would be in the catalog by now, so the truth is that you
submitted them earlier than six plus months ago. When I look at the pending items,
you submitted them on November 30, 2022, so they should be one of the next things
that we get to in our process of catching up. By the way, November 30 is about
three and a half months ago.
Cheers,
Randy

ok, I was incorrect about the 6 months but it has been a long time now. Bricklink
is now owned by a multi billion, that's billion with a B company. Seems like
they could hire more people to help with the catalog, that's all.

would you consider this a good example of a used or abused piece?
In other words, would you be happy/upset/not concerned about it after ordering
it as used with no description?
|
I would be upset. Description should have read heavy wear, play wear, especially
since I am sure the seller only had 1 or a few listed, not like a common brick
where they could have 100's listed.

| | I now have a bag of 252 Blacktron sp001 minifigs which do not have their tanks
but do have the helmet, visor, correct head, torso, hands and legs. Unfortunately,
their heads and hips have been glued so that I can't take the head off nor
turn the head. I also cannot take the leg/hips off.
Tried just simple warm water soaking but that did not work.
I do not know what kind of glue. I am guessing super-glue.
I did break one while trying really hard to get the hip/legs off. So I can see
where it was glued and that the body has the right torso.
Any brilliant thoughts on what to do with them or how to tackle the mysterious
glue?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion.

my might have been for a keychain? I had a glued figure that was glued by LEGO
and had no success ungluing it sadly.

You would have to run an auction. Have you contacted LEGO itself on the off chance
they might want to buy it given how rare this is?
| | if you want to know how i got it just ask
|
Ok, How did you get it?
|
I highly doubt there was only 2 of the boxes produced. 2 sets to the public yes
but the chance of LEGO only producing 2 printed boxes is very slim.

Can you post more photos of the box? It doesn't seem like there is 25 sets
in there.
As far as value, I would part the set out and sell the 25 set separately!
Joking. Whatever the value is image if it was a Star Wars set, the value would
be 100x more.

| | Hi,
Just apost to clear my mind.
I bought a set that has been cancelled by Lego. They cancelled it because of
1 stickered part and rereleased it without the part and sticker.
One seller sold it as a used set without box or instructions.
The “banned” stickered part just doesn’t look like a real sticker from Lego.
The collar looks flat and the cut is not perfect.
I was in doubt until i see the same seller selling the set again
box and instructions
It looks like he is buying the rerelease en printed the sticker himself and sell
the set 2.5 times the price.
Again i’m not 100% sure it is a scam. I definitly can’t prove it. But it isn’t
sitting right with me…
How do you look at it?

Are you talking about the Claus set? Wasn't the naughty list a printed tile
not sticker?

This is what first comes to mind. But without a better look at the minifig, it's
just a best-guess
|
Looking further, it would be a wrong best-guess. It seems this part was introduced
two years after that particular store opening creation.

But if they start showing up in trans glittery purple then they might be night
