Torso should be black not variable color.

Torsos are always variable color in torso assemblies. This request will not be
accepted.

Okay, I was writing to ask why but just found out why it is that way clicking
some torsos 
Thanks!

Awesome, Jonas! I could not figure out why that part was included!
Besides Jonathan's set, I had found many images of other sealed sets showing
the gears included in the set, so I knew they had to be used for something. Nice
detective work! 
Cheers,
Randy

| Please make changes to the following inventory:
* Add 1 Part 3647 Light Gray Technic, Gear 8 Tooth
* Change {2 to 1} Part Light Gray 3647 Technic, Gear 8 Tooth (Extra)
Comments from Submitter:
The parts list (via Brickset.com) from LEGO replacement parts website says one 8 tooth gear should be regular.
But why?
Because it is used in an alternate model from the CD-ROM.

| Technically speaking the inventory is incorrect because of the different LEGO
logos on the back of the torso. 
* | | 973pb0678 Torso Pirate Captain Jacket Open with Yellow Trim over Green Shirt with Neck Ruffle, Brown Strap, Belt with Buckle, LEGO Logo on Back Pattern
Parts: Minifigure, Torso |
But considering the number of items for sale and recently sold items it's
probably not a big problem...

I think it would be great if you could generate a code for your store so people

You don't use Instant Checkout, so why not just put your code on facebook
or wherever, saying add it to the order comments. Then you can manually adjust.

Sounds like a grocery store where you need a keycard for some deals and then
an app for even more. To me, it is unnecessary when you have the power to reduce
prices or run general sales for all customers and advertise as such. I'd
be quite upset if I bought from a store, and then realized that I could have
saved 10% if I saw some advertisement from somewhere else. This is just like
when any of us buy something and then learn it was cheaper if we entered some
code at checkout.
PS: Any Grocery Store Managers or Corporate see this... STOP IT. I'm already
in your store. Just give me the best price you are advertising without having
to go through all the extra steps!
PSS: I understand fully how advertising works. I just think it is getting ridiculous.
Keep it simple for all of us customers, no matter what industry we are talking
about.

The goal isn’t to have every buyer pay the “best” price. This “best” price is
funded by the ones who don’t pay it.
IOW, you say “when you have the power to reduce prices or run general sales for
all customers,” but that’s the thing: they can’t afford to reduce the prices
for everyone, or it would be a tiny, unmemorable reduction. So they do the next
best thing: make you believe they reduce the prices often. Too bad you always
miss it.
And there’s lots of psychological reasons: feeling special, feeling the discount
is earned, remembering the prices are low even if you paid more, etc.
Also, people are different: You get upset when you realize you missed a discount
while others don’t care and just throw away coupons. And it seems to work because
they do it again and again (and they have the numbers to know if it’s efficient).

What about your regular customers that might not be on social media? How do
they get the deals you are allowing for others?

You could use the store banner: "Request a quote and receive a discount for xxxx"

Adding yet another facility to race to the bottom - are you sure that is a good
thing?
Whilst figures rarely lie - they also mislead people. The latest digital media
usage figures are shown below and that ia a heck of a lot of people using social
media - but conversely the other half + do not use it (we are one of those).
Let your store speak for itself with quality goods, wide variety and first class
customer service - that will drive people to it as well as encouraging them to
return and become regular buyers/customers. Why do it with discounts? There really
isn't that much real margin in selling Lego.
We see enough 40/50/60 + % sales notices in the forum to do us for a lifetime
without adding to it.
Voted no, needless to say.

I think part of the idea is to draw people to the site that don't know about
bricklink
buts its like that flyer for the takeaway down the road, you ignore it! but then
if its saying get 50% off maybe you will look into it a bit more? Takeaway leaflets
are not the best example as I ignore them all anyway but I think you get the
idea....
|
Nothing wrong with drawing people to the site e.g. encouraging it for the right
reasons. Perhaps with TLG actually getting involved and some marketing effort
put in by the new owners that can be achieved without further discounting. A
lot of people are put off by discounts - not all, of course , There is so much
more to be done to the site and Lego's involvement needs to get stronger
and stronger - and that should pull more people here.
There will be people, some already, who think this is a good idea. In fact there
probably isn't anything wrong with it but we wouldn't use it as we aren't
interested in seeing 'how low can you go' - That isn't part of our
business model - it may be for others.
