I don't foresee any problems with approving these requests, but it would
be great if you could post a couple photos of the sets for future reference.
Also, please describe the condition of the sets when you obtained them (brand
new, used, etc.). This thread will be saved permanently.

The sets were new/shrink-wrapped.

Sorry, can't provide images as I took the parts I needed, parted out the
rest and recycled the boxes. I will remember in future.

The inventory of 801-1 includes set 802-1 with a note that says "Exactly the
same polysterene tray which includes all of set 802 is also in this set. The
wrapping around this tray (the box of set 802) is not included. Together with
this polysterene tray is another box, which contains all of the other bricks."

However, the contents of the polystyrene tray included in the sets I opened varied
to the stated inventory of 802-1, in that only 1 of 3707 was included, but with
an additional 3705 (total 2). I cannot say whether this was because 802-1 is
currently inventoried incorrectly or that 801-1 doesn't actually include
set 802-1 but a very similar variant of it. I wasn't sure how to reflect
this is the current inventory of 801-1.

Did you open new sealed sets or used sets?
As per instructions I do agree for the string (but the string is shown on one
of the box images).
I don't agree for the bricks. Look at page 7 of the instructions: there are
3 red 2x10 bricks necessary for that model.
And the gate top doesn't show up in the instructions for None of the models
(only the gate base is used as handle). So, if it is really in a new set, it
should be marked as extra.

I opened two sealed sets, one from 1970, the other from 1972. I know the years
because they included catalogues. Both had only two 2x10 red bricks. I am not
unfolding the instructions I have because I'm selling them as new, but I
believe your references to them.

  And the gate top doesn't show up in the instructions for None of the models
(only the gate base is used as handle). So, if it is really in a new set, it
should be marked as extra.

I've no problem with that

In this case, I believe it is a mistake in the instructions.

  And the gate top doesn't show up in the instructions for None of the models

should be marked as extra.

Without an official piece count, it's really hard to determine if something
is an extra or not, especially in a universal type set like this one. If in
doubt, I would recommend listing the fence top as a regular part.
