Hi

I recently sold a silver chrome 3001 which the buyer is not happy with saying
its an anniversary edition. Does anyone know of any specific variants?
I naively thought a silver chrome 3001 was a silver chrome 3001.
Cheers
Rob

Maybe the buyer confused it with the Metallic Silver version? That's my best
guess 🤷‍♂️ You listed it as "Chrome Silver" correct?

They were all released in 1998–1999, so there shouldn't be much of a difference
if any among different chrome silver bricks apart from condition:

The Chrome Gold one can look a lot more silverish than the chrome gold keychains,
I wonder if there's some confusion with that... otherwise I've no idea
what the buyer could mean.

Actually, there is a modern Chrome Silver 3001, easy to tell apart by looking
underneath and checking the mould numbers. This modern version was recently sourced
directly from one of Lego's suppliers, is the story I heard. But there have
also been many people custom chroming their own bricks over the years so who
knows.

These are my chrome silver "anniversary" bricks. Mould number 06 inside.

I don't understand which other chrome silver 3001 your buyer could have wanted.

I love your chrome silver bricks!
I can only assume it is an issue just like lightsabre hilts
New versus old colour data - yucky
Where are all the supposed data hounds
If your gold looks silver, you have failed in your duty of care requirements
That should also be a catalogued version
