has a new mold number 90809 which I bought from pick-a-brick. Please
add this. I don't have any of the old molds, so I can't compare.


If you are going to keep doing this (buying parts from Pick-a-Brick that are
unknown to BrickLink), it would behoove you to actually compare the newer parts
with the older versions before making requests to add new part numbers. Making
requests like this does not help in any way, because we still need to get someone
to compare both versions of the part.

Cheers,
Randy

I buy new stuff that appear on PAB because it usually sells quickly with a good
profit. But it takes extra time because BL isn't up to date. BrickOwl is.


There are a *lot* of data mistakes on BrickOwl. Believe me, I browse through
the database over there regularly. Just because they have new numbers entered
in places we don't doesn't mean they are correct.


  I you can't use this particular request now, then don't apply the changes
and keep this message for future reference when someone can actually can make
a comparison. I won't force you. Most of my requests like this I believe
I was able to compare against older variants, e.g.

In this case I will accept this request, for it's actually not a very new
moldnumber, it was added in January (I think together with the PCC) as alternate
item no to her sister:
