Comments from Submitter:
Alternate part for the head. Both the Blocked Open Stud and Stud Recessed versions were released.
|
Unfortunately, alternates are not allowed for minifigures. However, the minifigure
has an inventory note and someday this issue will be corrected (someday means
when the minifigure parts can be included in the inventory and figures themselves
are handled as counterparts).

| | 1) Is there any set in which 3062a and 3062b were simultaneously used?
|
I have no idea, but it's definitely possible. The Alternate section of the
inventory would cover cases where this occurred.
| | 2) There is a set from 1981 coming with 3062a, and a set from 1979 coming with
3062b! The early variant was used 2 years after its replacement was released!
Do you know any other part like this?
|
Yes, this does occur. Older variants can appear in sets for years after newer
variants are released. To see more detailed examples of timelines regarding
variants, please look through these parts:
https://www.bricklink.com/catalogRelCat.asp?relID=4
| | 3) The train 726 is from 726 but I didn't find it any catalog of 1977. It
surprises me this train was released only for one year. You may have more sources.
Could you check this please? (just to let you know that this train was sold in
Europe, except Great Britain)
|
Sorry, but I don't have any special sources. Brickset has a catalog library
which you might check.
| | 4) For this 7750, an inventory change request was submitted with photos to add
ONE
4073 Trans-Clear Plate, Round 1 x 1 Straight Side
as extra. After, I got photos of few other sealed/MISB 7750s. In one of them
there were Three
4073 Trans-Clear Plate, Round 1 x 1 Straight Side
extra. What would you do in this case?
|
It depends on what the set instructions show. Were any of the parts ever used
anywhere in the main or alternate models? Does the set box show an alternate
model in which one of the parts was used? What about the part count printed
on the box or in catalogs?
If the parts were never used anywhere and aren't part of the official part
count, then they're extras no matter how many there were. However, didn't
the parts come on sprues at this time? A count of 3 extras seems off if the
parts came in twos.

| Hello,
Your suggestion (SHIPTO-EQ: D) is a good start. I did n't think of that one.
Thank you. I hope BL will make a more appropriate TAG.

| | Hello,
Although Bricklink is an America-based website, is serves a worldwide audiance
now.
My store is base in the Netherlands and I modified the emails from Bricklink
(like the invoice etc.). Now people get these bi-lingual. (Dutch and English)
The only way to make them uni-lingual again is by deleting the non-desired language-text.
It might be an idea to extend the 'List of E-Mail Conditional Block Macro
Tags' with a language-tag. When poeple prefer the text in Dutch, they can
get the Dutch-tekst, if the shop-owner provides it.
If this system is implemented, there should also be a default-tag for the text
that is to be used, if the desired language is not specified in the mail.
This will contribute to a better user-experiance.
As a web-developer, I realize that this is not easely implemented. But it might
be an idea to keep in mind for a next version of Bricklink.
With kind regards,
Carel ten Hove

What you need kind of already exists;
SHIPTO-EQ: D
returns true if the buyer is in the same country is you.
However, BL should just add a conditional macro tag that returns true if a buyer's
address appears in a specified list of countries, and another one that returns
false if it does. I bet this should take the BL team about 1 hour at most to
implement. It can be used for language, but also for other purposes - anything
for which location could be relevant. SHIPTO-EQ: D only tests 1 country, and
in our case for example we might like to generate a Dutch text for buyers from
Belgium too, for example.
We could then generate Dutch for SHIPTO-EQ:{The Netherlands,Belgium,Surinam,Aruba,
...} and English for SHIPTO-!EQ:{The Netherlands} so that in the case of Belgium
for example it generates both languages and you can leave it or delete one according
to which city you read in the buyer's address.

Comments from Submitter:
The current inventory notes: "Color of spheres is random." Please update that note to: "The color of the 10th sphere is random."
http://www.bzpower.com/story.php?ID=2861
I found a 2006 set review that describes: " You just get an assortment of Gold, Silver, and Black spheres. There is three of each, with a random fourth sphere added in. "
This confirms what I see in all other online images of set 8719. The inventory is not completely random. The contents contains 10 spheres in pearl gold, pearl dark gray and pearl light gray. Each of the colors is available at least 3 times, and only the color of the 10th ball is random.
