Hej,
I have just noticed these two parts with the "shell" prints on them may be listed
as color "white" or "not applicable", though it's the exact same piece. So
they should be merged.
I may have missed them because I had listed only the white ones in my wanted
list.

Possibly a lot of other printed items have the same problem ?

Part No: 4865pb005  Name: Panel 1 x 2 x 1 with 'Shell' Pattern
* 
4865pb005 Panel 1 x 2 x 1 with 'Shell' Pattern
Parts: Panel, Decorated
[p=3068bpb0001]

Shops that list them under 'Not applicable' have listed them mistakingly.
It is those shops that should correct their listing. Nothing to merge on Bricklink's
catalog side.

Hej,
Okej I checked and some shops work for both indeed, but when there is only one
color existing, shouldn't the inventory be referenced differently to avoid
the problem ?

Or could there be an option with primary color and secondary color to be sure
to match the wanted list if the vendor didn't reference it properly ?

If you set the colour to Not Applicable in your Wanted List, all colours will
match in a search.
IOW, in a WL, N/A means “Any Colour.”
