| | Contest Prize is the classic Star Wars minifigure from 2004
New, never assembled
I let germinate the seed of something I’ve enjoyed my entire life without ever
having considered it’s seed. Thanks to this year’s slow-to-start spring here
in Washington, I’ve taken to growing a few things indoors, including this
guy…
The contest is a three-part question: 1) The plant’s latin name? 2) Time in days,
it took to successfully germinate the seed before placing into soil? 3) The number
of days it took to grow into what you currently see, using only the weak ambient
(window) sunlight we have at this latitude? No grow-light use so far.
That’s three bits of information to enter with each posted entry.
Contest rules are simple:
~ One post per day per member, otherwise no limit to the number of entry-days.
~ Entry must be made as a reply to this contest post.
~ All three questions must be made in a single post.
~ First to correctly answer to all three questions in a single post, wins!
We’ll cover the shipping cost domestically (free shipping) All members are welcome
to participate though, if you can offer a US shipping address should you win.
For non US based members, any address within the US will do: a friend, family
member or fellow BL member is fine.
The contest moderator will be the all powerful, all knowing and all around good
guy known as Johan (jbroman) of Big Boy’s Bricks
I’ll soon send Johan the winning answers, he’ll determine and announce the winner.
Please direct any questions Johan's way, our contest moderator: https://www.bricklink.com/feedback.asp?u=jbroman
Not all seeds germinate. If interested in how I aided this seed to do so,
feel free to contact me via pm, after the contest has concluded
Have fun!

| | So I have questions for all of the sellers here. Firstly I am not a seller here
but have sold online for a very long time, other products, other sites.
Here are my questions:
1 - Do you feel/think sellers should thoroughly clean and sanitize their used
bricks before selling?
I ask this because I haven't bought a ton here yet but I have now received
three shipments that I would consider filthy and I needed to clean. Quite disgusting
when they stink or have visible grime on them.
2 - Would you ever send a shipment of pieces to a buyer built into a large
flat brick?
I ask this because I had just received a shipment and all 400+ pieces were attached
into large bricks. This then took me around two hours to disassemble to see if
everything I ordered was actually there. In my opinion, this method of shipping
isn't acceptable.
Thanks for the feedback and opinions in advance.

You will be pleased to learn that we have just today appointed a new Catalog
Associate - Randyf. Randy has served as an Inventories Administrator for the
last couple years and has done a fantastic job. We feel this promotion, though
it has been long in coming, is very well deserved.
As a reminder to those who are still learning about the BrickLink Community Expert
Program, the Catalog Associate position gives admin privileges over the entire
catalog half of our BrickLink system. After one year's experience, Catalog
Associates are eligible for promotion to full Catalog Admin, which gives them
full privileges on both sides, for both catalog and inventories.

We plan to update the Hall of Fame page very soon. There are several things to
add, including Randy's time serving as Inventory Admin.

So long as one side is a purchase from a store, I think it is allowed. You can
pay in any currency accepted and agreed by a seller, and if they accept furniture
then go for it.

Just a heads up for anyone thinking of ordering from me in the near future, things

I'm looking to rent to begin with which may prevent me from reopening until

Thank you to all my customers and thanks for all those that have sold me items

In Announce, mkmbricks writes:
| | Hello everyone,
We realize that we made a mistake. Truly, we apologize to everyone, especially
to those that would like to retain the integrity of the friendly place these
forums are, and rather than adding to it, we took away from the ambient. We behaved
to confidently, and as we saw, we too had many mistakes. We wrote our message
to add to the community, to warn our fellow buyers and sellers, but in doing
so we took-away. We'd like to apologize for the use of duplicate accounts
- we honestly did not know that we couldn't have multiple accounts, we give
our word on that.
We are a "we". We are several people. We came across Bricklink and decided that
we could cooperate to manage one store, just as we would in real life. But, each
of us also had older accounts on Bricklink that we wanted to use solely for "shopping"
and making wanted lists. This account was designated as a seller's account.
However, we admit that we have committed trouble, and now we understand why there
shouldn't be multiple accounts. Although it did not cross our minds to commit
more treasonous things with these duplicate accounts, no one should be able to
do any of that, so we thank, in some way, that this happened.
As to those that gave us feedback on our store policies and responsibilities,
thank you. We have implemented some already, and we have removed the "All sales
final" and No refunds.
Once again, we are sorry for taking away, for we thought we were contributing
- we believe that we came off the wrong way in our message, and further so when
we, out of anger and impulse, decided to defend ourselves. We promise to do good
by everyone as so our capabilities permit us to do so, and perhaps we will listen
and ask more rather than talk and point.
Everyone, we understand that this apology may not be acceptable to many of you,
but we have no excuses. We made a mistake. We want to make up for it.
Thank you,
MKM Bricks

But, for the people on the planet that use the Imperial system, and haven’t had

Feature Suggestion: Add a setting in the settings menu that allows the display

one being bygg selv once thought to be a possible Lego piece and given the name
of x bricks or x clones until the real name was discovered.

I'm looking into buying a lot of old doors and windows for slotted bricks.
A few of the parts are clearly because I can see the LEGO logo
in the glass. But the others I'm unsure about. Especially one door (image#1)
has one side without pattern and a hole through it, and three red windows (image#2)
have glass which I belive they shouldn't have.
I've attached four images that show some of the parts in the lot.
Are there any experts in here that are able to judge if the parts appear to be
genuine LEGO parts?

| Look for the position and size of the tabs on the edges, many get damaged but
easier to see position for comparison to catalogue images when viewed from rear.
Puwi also produced similar windows and doors as Lego's in the later slotted
series not just the flat.

I was checking the 853-1 instrunction and I noticed that on the front seat image

I have another which has been mentioned here before.
x1180 looks nothing like 4740 in the same colour, trans neon Orange.

| | Hope this post is in the right place.
It's bugged me a while now that the Bionicle eye stalk piece that is included
in 8534, 8540 and 8572 is listed as trans dark pink despite the face that it's
more of a neon red-magenta color. As far as I know there are no other pieces
in this color, so I understand that it would probably be a waste of time to create
a new color just for one piece, but it may cause confusion for some that the
listed color is not actually the color in which the piece comes.

What do you think? Should another, perhaps unique or special color brick level

I know it’s far from an important consideration now, but it is a fun one
Maybe someone can arrange some type of choice-of-color polling or vote, to see
what the next level color brick should be?

Looking at the flower stems, they seem to be a bit different in form (maybe out
of an earlier mold?) and also in color, which is a bit transish. The left one
on my pic.
Anyone noticed or maybe a color error?
Thanks for help

How is it possible that new white parts are not really white any more?
I have part out some brand new sets (straight from the box) some months ago and
I sold some white parts. Now I get the question from the buyer that the parts
are not really white. I have stored the parts in a drawer where there is no sunlight.
How is it possible that the parts are not really white any more? is it a factory
mistake or is it the dark drawer ore what else.
Can any body help me what the problem is.

Was there a reason for not separating these components, I know the string could

I would love to see an inventory for x1447c01 in the catalog, but I don't
have the parts to add them.
And we also need a catalog entry for the Duplo pull cart with string and brick.
