| seen notations about this subject via another thread.
Moderator stated NOT to use phrasing like " as new" to describe a Used brick
with no flaws.
but bricks with flaws like scratches, dents, etc are allowed to be described
as so.
my suggestion for flawless Used bricks was " Looks Brand New"..
after reviewing the Cnodition aspects for listing bricks, there are only 2 choices,
New or Used, with no 'Condition Grading System mentioned for used bricks..
is there an Official Brinklink way to decribe 'Used' bricks with no flaws
on them?

You could say that the bricks look like-new but list them as used. Using phrasing
"as new" might lead buyers to believe the used parts are new.
Others may disagree with me. I'm not too picky about used bricks if they
look new for all intents and purposes.

Vintage parts or rare parts, I find it a bit more helpful to know if a piece
is in good shape or bad shape for the price. I tend to gravitate towards cheaper
options the sellers say are in good shape.

Fair point but in general that would be only a small percentage of parts but
I think this thread is more geared towards parts in general. When listing a rare
or expensive part it does make sense to describe its condition more in-depth
but it does make sense to not include the word "new" as it may confuse buyers

buyers don't want to know condition aspects of a $200 rare minifigure. .
used is used, stop asking questions...
as oppossed to using phrasing like " looks brand new" or "as new" for \ a
condition \\, what about aspects like this -- "/ nice figure, complete,
no noticed damage or wear, paint unmarred, tight joints"
or is Used just Used. no need to know things

Yes and no. it can be used in good condition or used in terrible condition if
it has damage it should be mentioned but if it doesn't then it doesn't
need to be mentioned for normal parts

I mean you can add that if you want but unless its a rare or expensive items
it probably not worth the time and effort to get that detailed
| or is Used just Used. no need to know things
|
If its a standard item that isn't expensive or rare no comment does the trick
just fine if it isn't damaged. if an item doesn't have comments it should
be expected as per bl "terms" to be in good condition so why repeat it as opposed
to if its damaged your supposed to describe the damage like it says here (message

"Used Parts - Parts which have been previously used and are presumably still

New isn't necessarily to describe quality but rather to describe the origin
and past of the part.

Yes
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=102#:~:text=These%20parts%20have%20never%20been,still%20in%20good%2C%20usable%20condition.
"New Parts - Parts are brand new, taken directly from new sets or were purchased
"as new" in another form such as accessory packs or Pick A Brick and have been
handled only for sorting. These parts have never been used in any manner. If
a minifigure or part assembly was originally sold assembled by LEGO, its component
parts after disassembly can also be listed as new."
Literaly doesn't speficy new as only a condition but rather also as an origin

nope, it was quite obvious, considering they have different accounts...

ok Joan,
we know no one knows what you know, & you know everything.... so you are compelled
to inform everyone across the internet about your vast knowledge, because no
one knows what you know
but it's interesting that you assume i haven't read the rules.
because, your Joan...
'Newbies' log into Brinklink to buy a minifigures. they know nothing
about Brinklink rules, nor do they care, they just want to buy a minifigure..
letting them know it's complete informs them the item i am selling conforms
to what they are wantig to buy.
as you say 'i don't have too' but i choose too.
it shows buyers i have personally handlded the item & checked it.
it's not just some pump & dump brick listing i have 75 of, a minifigure has
numerous parts.. informing a buyer you as a seller has made sure it is complete
. .well .. it's what i choose to do. .
but hey, you do you..

Sorry, but opinions are all you are going to get here. Our moderators consist
of members of our community and are not BL employees. If you want official word

you don’t want our replies then you are in the wrong place.

Exactly, plus we already have a help page about all of the conditions:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=102
"Used Parts - Parts which have been previously used and are presumably still
in good, usable condition. If the parts show excessive wear, discoloration,
excessive scratches, other marks,etc. this should be noted in the *Comments*
field. Sticker sheets missing stickers must be listed as Used."

|
There isn't 'no flaws' bricks, even for New ones (counting, storing,
packing, shipping...)
The normality for Used (and for server economy) is, I guess: Used in decent usage
condition (which may include exceptionnally good condition parts) - but they're
still Used.
Only heavier damages are to be described.
And this should be (I hope) a minority of your Used Inventory.
Otherwise sell on eBay

There isn't an official way, just that one should avoid referring to them
"as new", "like new", etc. You could say
- excellent condition
- no evident playwear
something similar, or even nothing at all (leave the comment field blank). By
the way, I agree with other sellers in this thread that there really isn't
any such thing as a "flawless" brick - even brand new bricks right out of the
box will have flaws (usually small scratches but sometimes large scratches or
nicks - no surprise if you see how Lego bricks are manufactured).
