I haven't done an inventory change for years so not sure if I have done
this correctly, I wanted to add the screw on cover type hub as an alternative
match, as many sellers are listing the hubs with screws as hubs with clips when
parting out these sets.

This set was redesigned when they replaced the hub, so your request to add the
alternate hub can only be accepted along with further changes to reflect that
redesign. Do you own this set with the new hub yourself?

In any case, the hub with clip cover was included in early copies of the set,
so the request to remove that one from the inventory cannot be accepted.

I do not have the set myself, I was trying to add it as an alternative but wasn't
having any success in making the change to the existing part, it would only allow
me to delete it. Thinking now would I have to delete it as existing and add it
again as an alternate (regular) as well as adding the screw type as an alternate.
I haven't filed a change request in many years so struggling with it.

I made a purchase of 6 hubs with clips but the seller has sent me 6 with screws
and is telling me I made a mistake in ordering the wrong part as he has checked
his stock to the sets inventory so he is right, even though it is not the part
I ordered.

Not a problem, we can always fix missing match ID numbers.

  I made a purchase of 6 hubs with clips but the seller has sent me 6 with screws
and is telling me I made a mistake in ordering the wrong part as he has checked
his stock to the sets inventory so he is right, even though it is not the part
I ordered.

I'm sorry about the wrong delivery, but it is solely the seller's responsibility
to list and ship parts correctly. We use sealed sets to create the inventories
for new sets at the time when they are released, but there is no easy way for
us to check that the inventory is correct for all later copies of a set, as we
don't know if and when a set might get a redesign or when the redesigned
version might hit the shelves. Due to this (and for some other reasons) you'll
find this disclaimer at the bottom of every inventory page: "BrickLink does
not guarantee an inventory to be correct and therefore an inventory should be
only used as a guide."

I'll leave this request open as a reminder that the inventory must be updated
to reflect the redesign. Please give us some time to look into it.

  This set was redesigned when they replaced the hub, so your request to add the
alternate hub can only be accepted along with further changes to reflect that
redesign. Do you own this set with the new hub yourself?

In any case, the hub with clip cover was included in early copies of the set,
so the request to remove that one from the inventory cannot be accepted.

I have looked into this by comparing all instruction books that I could find
(9 different versions). Except for minor differences like language and possibly
paper size, there are only three different versions.

6381992: hub with clips, design 1
6381993: hub with clips, design 1
6396686: hub with clips, design 1

6411661: hub with clips, design 2

6411600: hub with screws, design 2
6411601: hub with screws, design 2
6447801: hub with screws, design 2

So the redesign occurs before the hub switch (which can be seen by comparing
e.g. books 6381992 and 6411661).

The hub switch occurs after the redesign (which can be seen by comparing e.g.
books 6411661 and 6411600, notice that the PCC for the hub is not changed in
the parts list.)

So the switch between the two hubs was not part of the redesign and therefore
this request can be accepted as a valid variant.

I will update the inventory for the redesign in another request.
