As a seller, it doesn't matter to me if the numbers are in bold (showing

sure it is in my account. (or received the check in the mail or whatever).
Like Scrooge, I don't ship until I have the 'cash in hand', so I
should be the only one to mark it paid. (or the Paypal link, that is fine too,
just not the buyer).

So.. are you talking about the order status, or about the grand total showing
in bold because the buyer submitted the payment? You'd want to remove the
latter just because you don't need it?  Well, I need it.. not everyone
works with PayPal. If buyers send me bank transfers, I need to see that so that
I can ship their order or verify the payment. It's a pretty important feature
to me.
|
Well, drats. I guess that isn't the solution either. But I have checked my
Paypal account, and there is NO payment from the buyer. And yet, since he marked
it paid, everything is grayed out and I cannot add a shipping amount or send
an invoice! Frustrating!! Okay, so a better solution may be that BrickLink does
NOT gray out the options!!

Hi Lisa,
You should be able to send an invoice. One of the changes we made last week was
to allow an invoice regardless of order status:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1198619
(7) b. Sellers can send an invoice independent of order status
This has also been reverted to the way it was originally. And sending an invoice
will not automatically change the Order Status.
So if you can't send an invoice, that's a bug and we'll need to get
it fixed.
Regarding being able to change the charges on an order after the order has been
paid, this is something we did not revert last week, and a number of sellers
have come forward with situations where they still would like to use this option.
I will gather up these comments and re-open this issue with the team this coming
week to see if we can be more flexible.
Although, my understanding of the "Paid" status would be that the seller would
have to mark it as paid, or it would be marked as paid as a result of an onsite
payment transaction. I would not consider a buyer marking something as "Paid"
as something that should limit the seller's options in any way. Maybe there
is some confusion on this depending on whether the seller has enabled the option
of separating payment status from order status.
Also, and I extend this to anyone who has an order status that is stuck for whatever
reason. Please contact me and I will change the order status for you manually.

The parts on the left are LEGO Light Reddish Violet. The parts on the

Rose is commonly called "Paradisa Pink" and is often sold as "Light Pink" on
BrickLink.
I am not sure if BrickLink's Light Pink actually exist. I suspect many are
misidentified.
|
One of the solutions is to simply start using Light Pink for the early pink color.
Some sellers are already doing this.
However, the bigger problem is fitting the new color into our inventory system.
It would be great if the first two set years of Paradisa (1992-1993) the sets
only contained the early pink. But later copies of even the earliest Paradisa
sets have been found with the new pink.
So then we would be stuck with the same situation as the 2003-2004 color changes,
where large parts of an inventory are labeled color alternates. This presents
a very practical problem in that mold variants would compete for space in the
inventory. We give preference to mold variant over minor color variant, but it's
a choice no Inv Admin wants to make.
BrickLink did a survey of these colors in Brickworld Chicago in 2018. It was
called the Pink Challenge and participants were asked simply to sort by color
a dozen pink colored parts in a tray. These included the modern Bright Pink.
Almost everyone clearly distinguished the early pink color, though there was
little consensus on what to call it. I think we ended up with about 50 different
name suggestions by the end of the event.

Those are not LEGO renders. They are renders from something else. And the images
definitely show hollow studs. I don't know how they could be interpreted
as anything else. If the part really has solid studs, all of the images need
to be replaced.

Those are Studio renders from the 2017 image project. We retained all photographs
in that project and only replaced render with render. In this case there were
no official LEGO renders available and our only guideline for accuracy was the
lo-rez LDraw render that was just deleted.
I agree, if the actual part only ever had solid studs all of these images need
to be replaced.

Sticker sheets are considered parts - that's why there is this fussiness.
I agree - this is really splitting hairs, and I have commented on more than
one occasion that you could switch the two entries around back and forth and
likely no one would notice.
But fixing something like this is like removing a variant from the catalog that

BrickLink as a rule does not differentiate between minor variations when it comes
to sets. Boxes, instructions, and even contents can be slightly different, but
there is usually only a single entry.
BrickLink's primary focus as a marketplace has always been parts, and so
you'll find more variations present in that Item Type.

Shall I just request the names of there entries to be changed to indicated the

|
There is some work to be done on all early windows and doors. This means entries,
photos, inventories, etc. But first, and most importantly, it means knowledge
of the parts and knowledge of what the current BrickLink entries mean.
To get knowledge of the parts, you need to obtain all different colors and types.
Don't get angry with sellers if they send you the wrong type. Sometimes you
will find a new type that way.
To understand what the BrickLink entries mean, take the Item Name literally.
so for this:
The glass could be fixed or not, the stud could be solid or not, and the lip
could be extended or not. Do not imply meaning based on other entries or the
image, especially if it is a render.
What needs to be done is to make a chart of all possible 1 x 2 window variations,
and place next to it a chart of all current variants on BrickLink. Then we have
to decide which new entries we need and which need to be decommissioned. It is
not wise to simply change the item names, because the listings could then become
wrong as a result.
Some basic background on early windows - removable "glass" was only used in the
very earliest of windows. It later became "fixed", i.e. not removable, and in
some cases, the latest versions came with no glass, for example with the 1 x
1 window.
As a disclaimer, I do not know the history of parts of the sixties like I know
those from the seventies. If I did a project like this, I'm sure I would
learn a lot about those earlier parts and be able to give a lot more background.
If you can find Gary Istok's guide, you will learn a wealth of information
about this and similar subjects.
I know it's tempting to want to just start submitting changes based on what
you see in the BrickLink catalog already, but if it were that simple, someone
already would have done it. Usually these kinds of projects need the help of
several different people, and to do that, the best way is to get the project
on the catalog roadmap.
Another point of consideration here is the place / need for subparts. BrickLink
is very inconsistent on this, and the reason is mostly practical. If you have
to break an item to get photos for the entries of subparts, you're probably
going too far. Some subparts are useful if sellers have a market for them, but
when you start making entries just to have complete inventories of every part
with a "c" in the Item Name, you are filling up the early parts sections with
entries that might never be used, or even worse might be misunderstood by either
the buyer or the seller. We've got a number of subpart entries on BrickLink
that have a rendered image because it's almost impossible to find an actual
example of the part.

I agree, but what kind of a market are we talking about for these types of minifigs?
|
Most vintage items will never sell like the newest minifig series or even the
early Star Wars sets. There just wasn't the volume of sales in the 1970's
as there is today, so it has to be seen in context.
But I think most sellers would jump at the chance to list the big figures from
the 1970's if they occupied the minifig position in inventories. But right
now, each part of those figures is listed separately. In reality the head, torso,
arms and hands came fully assembled in every market outside of Canada. See here

There is an exception with these early "stiff" minifigures. Because they often
had to be built into the model, we don't use the instructions as the final
word on how they are listed in the inventory. So I would say the two with offset
legs should absolutely be listed as whole minifigs, because this is how these
figures were often made to "sit".
In the early days of BrickLink inventories, sometimes these types of cases resulted
in minifigures being listed as counterparts. But that's a bad precedent to
set, and most or all of these have since been moved to the regular section.
The one on the horse is tough, because of examples like this:
...which I personally verified from a sealed set. There is no extra legs piece.
Or this is even worse:
Here, no minifigs have ever been added, presumably because it would be strange
to list this set as having only 2 or 3 minifigs when it could be argued that
there are 6. So until now, this set has been treated like those LEGO Education
packs where no minifigs are defined and everything is just loose parts in the
inventory.
|
Since there is so much confusion with these early stiff figures, I wonder if
it is even necessary to list them as full minifigures unless they were ever shown
as full figures in the instructions. It seems like the parts were just meant
to be used to build a lot of different play scenarios instead of actually represent
a whole figure. I hate exceptions, and an exception for these early figures seems
uncalled for. This probably needs to be wrapped into Project 23 on the Catalog
Roadmap.

the two inventories originally. I would hope that I would have gotten it right
back then, but I can check again.

I'm pretty sure you did get it right. I found both sets of instructions a
few years ago and worked through the differences as well.

If you don't mind me asking, why do they choose not to add these to the catalog?
(Maybe you won't know, but I am curious anyways). They are official Lego
sets with Lego pieces, and the instructions have Lego logo and trademark all
over it. I thought it fit into the requirements for adding to the catalog.
Thanks for your time, I'm just trying to understand the guidelines for the
catalog.

I believe it has to do with the fact that they were not originally a sealed,
packed product.

So, since this site is not willing to assist a seller list their items, what
methods are available for us collectors to patronize sellers without violating
any of the site's "rules"?
Thanks for your consideration...

You can sell them in the Custom Items section.
