  I feel we should get a report post button added since trying to find that page
is very not user friendly.

This was suggested before.

The Problem Center is below the page. Click forum, then enter the message number.

yeah but a bit redundant when you have to go thru 3 clicks just to get tot the
report post section.

  Can I resubmit my pickable models from 2012 or are you just going to change
the instruction entries to sets?

It doesn't appear to cause any problems to change instructions to
sets, so for existing instructions this is probably what will occur - except
possibly in cases where there are large numbers of items for sale.

Here's one changed:

 
Set No: Torque  Name: Toys "R" Us Exclusive Build - Rod "Torque" Redline
* 
TORQUE-1 (Inv) Toys "R" Us Exclusive Build - Rod "Torque" Redline
30 Parts, 2011
Sets: Building Event: Cars: Cars 2

I tried listing those instructions when I listed the sticker sheet for the set
and it got denied, guess rules changed?

but just happen to be known by our chosen usernames instead.

Yes, your bluser number can be seen by going to your Account Info page. The
second bit of information there is titled User ID. That's your bluser number.

Someday in the distant future, when we're all dead, they'll eject us
from the system and make us blusers, too. Not too fond of the idea, as I'd
rather be remembered as StormChaser, not BLUSER_13161.

Doesn't matter what I want, though.

I'm BLUSER 9140

  We need to add a new category to the sales process, i.e. Bricklinked/Not Original.
It would weed out false hits for those of us who only seek original sets!

you can add the category but if there is a price discreprency don't count
on many using it, furthermore some of them resell sets so no clue if those sets
are bricklinked either.

  OK, didn't know LEGO build custom parts, off catalog stuff. That's different
"pair of sleeves". And think that that parts can easy be checked, they have letters
LEGO marks. TLG guarantee for plastic and print that are not toxic and harmful.

I was referring to fake LEGO brands and custom parts build in "garage". I don't
say that there's no quality custom parts, but who can say that this and this
custom part is of good quality and this and this isn't (and everything that
came with it; durability, paint peeling, what king of plastic and paint, how
safe are for kids to play with them...). All sellers of those parts will write
that their parts are high quality.
Example, you all heard of custom minifigs from Christo7108, that are praised.
But he has some custom parts (and prints) that are copied by others like Sheng
Yuan (fake Lego brand), like Flash's helmet (SY269), see pics.
I'm for banning all, as 1974 write, 3rd party stuff.

not all LEGO is marked LEGO.

  Hello

I suggest to ban selling custom parts from bricklink that aren't official
LEGO parts.
LEGO guarantee for quality of their parts and we can't know of what kind
of plastic are made custom parts. Plastic maybe toxic or another way harmful.
And what guarantee we have that those parts aren't from fake LEGO brands
like Lepin or similar.
Let those fake parts be on ebay and other sites, let bricklink be just for LEGO
and not for "Lego".

Cheers
Marko

I see this is still being discussed and has been discussed over so long, now
if you wanted to ban items that are duplicate of LEGO items I might be behind
it, but alas LEGO does not make all things many seek to obtain and custom parts
makers do fill that niche, while also giving good quality items.

So, any piece that Tyco or Megablocks make which Lego hasn't, should be fair
game?

no since I consider Tyco and Megablock competition with LEGO while customizers
and their parts are not, they accentuate LEGO.

I notice by myself that I'm getting more and more irritated by lengthy posts
from 'sellers' who have nothing to sell, yet they have very strong opinions
on everything going on here on BL. Not only Thor, but Rick_S as well.
To those people I would say: go on with your life and have fun with LEGO - but
not in this forum...

Best wishes,
Martin


seriously you just said that? lets look at your feedback, hmm smaller then mine,
hmm lets see your start date, wow a recent date, maybe BL should ban all members
with less then 5 or 10 years from posting? and lets see I've sold a lot here
before, did rather well, helped with other things on this site, your comment
would be akin to say ignore the old or those over 40 years of age or 50 or 60
since they do nothing, congrats you made my stoplist for being insulting.

my bad your already on it for stoplisting me
