HI Bricklink Team

Please can you either do the catalogue changes or not - I am listing a load of
printed tiles and some have the b and some don't. this is infuriating and
is meaning it is taking me longer to list than before.

I thought the changes were there to simplify matters. so far its the opposite
in every way plus we have a worse catalogue.

Also - and I fully admit I haven't been at my best the last few weeks due
to illness, but I thought we were getting an email with the parts in our inventory
it was affecting. Did I miss this ?

Cheers
Dave

I think messages would only be sent for merges and the tiles are “only” renamings
and re-IDings.
The only merge that I’m sure was done is 4079 minifig seat.  I don’t know if
they sent a message (because my inventory is empty) but if you don’t have seats
in your inventory, you wouldn’t have got one.
Maybe….

Of course, the changelog! 🤦

Besides, now I looked at it, I remember I had to correct a few others in my database
too

It might be an idea to just list them all under one entry with comments stating
they could be either variant inline with Bricklinks scheduled merge!

I can't imagine neither Bricklink or your customers will hold you accountable
at this stage in the change process besides you'd be giving your customers
fair warning anyway
