Hello. I am just making a suggestion for sellers as to double and triple check
your orders you send out. Just got 2 orders I placed and both had wrong part
variations in them. I know people make mistakes but these are pretty common older
parts.

some sellers dont differentiate between mold types. some say if they do or don't
in their terms and others just don't even know there are different ones

Complicated...

Price of parts are all going down for years.

Some orders are 500 lots to pick.

Some are for less than 5 cents - whatever currency it is.

Will you check every item?
Frankly and sorry, no.

Please see this point of view.
Since Buyers have tools, wanted-lists or share XML, BSX, or studio files (etc),
all this is processed by computers.
It's very fine and exact!

But when this perfect list arrives IRL... and is picked by a tired under paid
person, it's then a completely different thing.

Buyers often not realize sellers are NOT computers

Hmm, strange way to say “unpaid children”

‘AI’ to the rescue!

Considering what we’ve seen so far, my guess is it will sell you non-existing
parts and send you minifigs with 3 arms

No no, as have said Kurt: "My wife is by far the oldest person I ever slept
with."

Please first sell then tell.

I have to disagree! We are responsible for what we sell. If a seller doesn't
want to check $.05 parts, then they shouldn't list them for sale.

But in reality, buyers can help out by giving their sellers a head's up if
variants are important for their order.

Thanks,
