| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Delete 2 Part 4215apb06 Blue Panel 1 x 4 x 3 - Solid Studs with Box and Arrows Pattern (Sticker) (Counterpart)
Comments from Submitter:
Instructions and other set images clearly show that the sticker is applied partially on the 1x2x3 panel so that it is centered on the container.

I’d rather say that:
1. Sellers saw how the MOC Shop faired.
2. Sellers understand that MOCs are a niche market. Best-sellers are very rare.
Even MOCs-that-sell are rare.
3. Sellers understand that MOCs require much work (as you yourself noticed) and
they prefer buyers to do it themselves.
As for the prices, look at the constraints on parts for the “AFOL Design Contest.”
Even with a partnership with TLG, the sets will be around 10¢/part. More than
TLG’s sets when you consider there won’t be (new) prints nor recolouring nor
new parts nor expensive licences.
(Curious to see how many of the finalists will reach the crowd funding limit.)
And about Studio:
1. Most sellers don’t see what it could bring them as sellers (see MOC Shop,
see Mosaick).
2. Some (many?) think the efforts put to make Studio would have been better spent
of the main website.
(At least, Studio can compete (and win) with similar programs on many points.
That was not the case with Mosaick  )

I must have missed one of the blue boxes on the lower part of a page.

I found a sealed set unboxing and building at http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=109875
In one image, you can clearly see the tell-tale ridges around the ring on the
underside of this part that shows that the part has the locking fingers.
Request accepted.

| I forgot one important detail: it also hold the risk of people being motivated
by money only  .
IMHO, it's a hobby and a relaxing activity to create some new things out
of random parts and I will not like seeing tons of poor designs or other by greedy
people who don't really care, especially it could be easy to copy/steal someone's
else work and get money for just bringing it here.
Of course Lego official sets are easy to spot, but who really knows about all
3rd party Lego Magazines sets (polybags) or even old Lego Idea books ?
Same apply for commercial books about Lego like Crazy Contraptions, Chain reactions,
LEGO Micro Cities: Build Your Own Mini Metropolis!, the Lego Book and many others.

I've bought a few sets of missing pieces so far on Bricklink. What was built

is a way for creators to make money on their own custom sets. There is a very
old discussion topic on Affiliate Marketing which doesn't look like it went
anywhere. This idea is tangentially related.
It would be great if a builder could encode their design into a bricklink shopping
cart and then when people purchase the legos from the shopping cart or custom
set, the creator of the set could get some referral cost of the legos purchased.
This could give a huge boost to the lego community by empowering creators to
design and sell their own designs and could help increase cost per brick for
the sellers. At the same time, it would allow the common builder access to a
much wider array of sets to build.

I know some sellers have MOCS that they release what pieces are needed, and then
sell the instructions for that MOC.
That way they get some money off their creations.

| Hi,
like many of people around here I guess, I have played with many Lego sets when
I was younger, then get back to it just a while back, awesomeness still as fresh
as before  .
That could be a good idea, there is also MOCshop or something similar but there,
prices are ridiculously high (higher than Lego sets, yes that's possible
!)
But I'm afraid long time sellers here will not agree MOC gives them some
cash as Studio is not very welcome as far as I understand. Too bad. Gathering
parts for a nice sets available in the gallery could be exhausting and boring.
Having a bag pf ârts ready to buy will be nice.
On the other hand, there is no official reference for gallery item so it is just
impossible to exactly match a design unless using the internal model ID
(ex: https://studio.bricklink.com/v2/build/model.page?idModel=71193).
I'll looking forward to what people think about this.

| Agreed. This would be a great thing for the admins to get in front of instead
of reacting to all the people turning off the automated payment feature. The
other option is the change to the highest postage rate from your location, however,
that's not the way I want to do business.
I am planning to close my store for a week or two until after the new rates go
into effect and see if someone comes up with a rate card that will work.

I think it's possible this way:
Click the add to Wantlist button on the order details page or after checkout.
Or add the items in Wantlist icon in the settings of the orders Placed page.
Download the Wantlist and upload it to your inventory.

Comments from Submitter:
My copy of this set contains one 553c and one 553b.
|
Just realized I entered a quantity of 1 for the alternate when it could theoretically
be 2. On second thought not sure if my case counts as a valid part variation
at all?
|
It definitely does count as a valid part variation.
Could you please post a picture of the two pieces from the undersides for future
reference? Since 553b has not been reported in a set for a few years now, it
seems odd to see this part variation pop up again.
Also, was your copy of this set purchased as a sealed set, opened by yourself,
and the pieces of it not mixed with any other sets?
Thanks,
Randy

Here's that picture. Yes, it was a sealed copy. In fact, I have pictures

Yeah, I see it now. Very subtle. Good eye!
There's also that policeman one. It looks like the torso is a different mold,
but I'm not sure whether there's a separate catalog entry for the different
shoulder shapes on the torsos.

My copy of this set contains one 553c and one 553b.

Just realized I entered a quantity of 1 for the alternate when it could theoretically
be 2. On second thought not sure if my case counts as a valid part variation
at all?

It definitely does count as a valid part variation.
Could you please post a picture of the two pieces from the undersides for future
reference? Since 553b has not been reported in a set for a few years now, it
seems odd to see this part variation pop up again.
Also, was your copy of this set purchased as a sealed set, opened by yourself,
and the pieces of it not mixed with any other sets?
Thanks,
Randy

Here's that picture. Yes, it was a sealed copy. In fact, I have pictures
of the sealed bags as well as of the entire set knolled, where the different
molds are more clearly visible MIO. I've included those two as well and cropped
the latter as appropriate.

s/MIO/IMO/
If it helps, the label on the tape seals is 43g7. I bought this set in Feb 2018,
so a late 2017 mint date checks out.

Hi,
Thanks, I did that
Now, two problems:
1) I "reserved" the set - how can I set it free as it looks like I cannt proceed
(see below)
2) There already is an inventory that has been added by somebody else, but
a) some of the parts added before are not available and marked red
b) some of the parts do not match the code I see in the Inventory
I understand I could edit the inventory provided by someone else - but it looks
like he/she did manage to somehow associate a correct picture in the "LEGO guide"
shown in the left column
Then there is the "big yellow wheel" that some seems not to be known to bricklink
at all. Can this be?
|
Yes a new set can have new parts.
The partial inventory you are looking at is not someone else's attempt.
That's the list of pieces that Lego.com has on the page where you can request
pieces that were missing from your set. It auto-uploads to help you get started.

No, the BrickLink catalog does not distinguish between a hollow vs solid pin,
but you are free to add such information to your listings.

|
| As I keep my inventory in a custom database which uses the BL parts and categories
as core data, I was wondering if there is a way to download the "Item Relationships"
as a CSV file.
Currently I am working on a way to complete MOCs from my existing inventory.
This means I load a "wanted list" for the MOC into my system and then I get an
output of which of my lots match the items on that list. As my inventory is carefully
maintained reflecting all part variants I only get the exact same part into my
list. For my MOCs I do often not care which part I am using.
E.g. if I have some on my wanted list, it would be nice to show also
the I might have in my inventory.
To implement this functionality I would like to use the BL Item Relationship
"Similar Parts with Different Molds".
Unfortunately I cannot find a way to download this information as raw data.
Any Idea other than entering these manually?
Thank you very much!

It is used in watch links. For some reason, those are considered to be gear and
not parts, so they are not shown in the parts column.

|
| Currently, BrickLink does not support USPS zones, nor has there been any public
indication it is being implemented. Up until now, the ability of Instant Checkout
to calculate correct destination shipping within the USA has been compromised
for Priority Mail (custom packaging), but not for USPS First Class Parcel.
BrickLink has supported the existing USPS First Class Parcel and the existing
"flat rate" Priority Mail boxes (small/medium/large) because zone calculation
was not needed.
With the 27 January 2019 USPS rate change imminent, we (the sellers) have no
automated method of calculating the correct First Class Parcel rates, because
a zone calculation will be needed.
The calculation of zone is documented at DMM 608.9.0 (in it's entirety).
If BL chose not to use the USPS API calls to get the zone number for a given
shipment, it is possible to calculate it based on great circle distances. See
the explanations for more detail.
Since BL has chosen to not use the API callbacks provided by USPS, they have
instead opted for database rate tables (which have to be manually reloaded each
time USPS changes the rates). The current table contains the 2017 rates. It was
never updated to reflect the 2018 rates.
