| Hi,
I've just had an order for 6 x 4073 Trans-Dark Pink's
When I picked them, 4 of them are visibly lighter than the other 2.
Does that mean 4 of them are actually Trans Pink, or is this just some variation
in the color?
According to the catalog, Trans Pink doesn't appear in any set, but there
are some sellers that have it listed.
I traced those 4 back to where I got them from, and it seems they came out of
(sealed) set 10717.
How (or what) should I explain this to the buyer?
Photo: Left plate, right brick and 2 middle 4073's are Trans-Dark Pink, the
4 others are lighter. I have nothing else in Trans Pink to compare this with.

They are the same color, and it happens.

I don't believe there are any modern LEGO colors that do not vary in color
from batch to batch. Color consistency really is a *huge* problem of theirs,
and they really need to focus on it.
Cheers,
Randy
