  I have two different versions of [P=bb67a]. Can this part be reassembled or are
there in fact two different versions of this part?

/Jan

The handle can be pulled out

Thanks, you're absolutely right. Now that this part can be disassembled,
shouldn't it have an inventory consisting of three parts?

/Jan

It could have, not should have

But yes, it is possible. Though I have never found the separate parts of this
part and the separate parts are not used in any other part.

You could issue the parts and wait if it gets accepted.

  Indeed, that image says a lot.

Would you be willing to submit an inventory for this set if I delete the current
inventory?

Yes, of course.

Please note, both versions of the tiles DO exist. All tiles are valid.

Oh, I don't disagree with both versions existing. I have serious doubts
that both versions came in this set, though.

BTW, do you have the red storage tray which came with the set? Can you submit
it to the catalog?

Yes, I have. Submit it as new part?

  Please make changes to the following inventory:
 
Set No: 1000  Name: Mosaic Set
* 
1000-1 (Inv) Mosaic Set
202 Parts, 1 Gear, 1985
Sets: Educational & Dacta: DUPLO: Mosaic

We need to hold up on these changes for a moment. I have some observations.

Admin inventoried this set based on Set Box/Picture. The set box and picture
both show the larger tiles. Why are we adding the large tiles as alternates
instead of regular? Is there any evidence this set ever actually came with the
tiles now shown as regular?

Also, that's a large number of match IDs. If there really were two different
sets, then we should probably just make a new set entry.

Here's what I think happened: Dan got this inventory wrong. Here's what
I think we should do about it: delete the inventory and start over again.

It seems like this proposal is not to aid buyer(s) but to overcome a limitation
as seller.

Just thinking outloud:
Selling new items, and as seller you want availability of all items/colors in
your store all the time for all buyers? Correct? So I would say just add more
stock. But your own resources (to add more stock) are likely limited, as seller
you cannot add indefinitely. So, to overcome this limited resources issue, the
solution is to shove the limitation on to the buyer(s)... somehow...

I guess in a way this is always the case, either by limiting lots, or raising
prices, or other means

guy has bought out 2 lots Now my store offers round 1x1 plates in all colours
except trans clear

I don't have a proper workaround, because the remarks option makes my inventory
appear smaller than it is. That's not good for my administration and inventory
management. You could list separate lots, but I don't know, seems rather
tedious to me. There could be some alternatives I haven't thought of, if
you have any let me know

  First of all: be my guest, if you want to use this option go ahead it's your
store and your items to sell. No problem at all.

But.. just for arguments sake... what would be the buyer experience of this?
It's all psychology, so think it through I would say, place yourself in a
buyer shoes.

Also... technically, wouldn't there be many easy ways to simply go around
this 'restriction'? I don't know... just a thought... aren't
you just trying to influence something which is just an idea in your head but
has nothing to do with reality?

I think I would not use this option.

Enjoy,

  I would really like to see a new parameter for lots that limits the amount a
buyer can buy of a certain part in any one order. The part would then turn up
in search results and in store inventory showing not more than the value specified.
It's something that many online stores use, notably also LEGO themselves.

So far the way to do this is to offer the desired max amount, put in remarks
how much is left, and put the item on retain. This has several drawbacks, most
of all:
- You have to manually reoffer and modify the remarks all the time
- You cannot see or accurately modify the price and other stats of your inventory
because part of the amount of what you have is hidden in remarks

This could all be solved by 1 simple extra field, that is left on 0 when unused.

Of course, the item should not appear updated for users that still have an order
that has not yet reached the packed status. Of course buyers can buy again after
that, but separate shipping and handling fees should be sufficient to bar the
effect of buyers blowing sudden holes in your inventory.
