Please tell us which part it was that was removed. It could have been a mistake,
but it could have also been an unwritten rule that we have had to enforce because
of the problem of fake parts. Unfortunately we do not have a log of deletions.

I have an idea. If you're going to enforce a rule, then write that rule
into the Bricklink Rules and Policies. That way people will actually know
what the rules are. Enforcing unwritten rules will just create chaos and resentment.

There is already a rule that sort of covers it...
Items Pending Official Release: Items may not be listed prior to their official
LEGO release date, either as custom lots or under related catalog entries.
These items have not been officially released, so these items are listed before
the official release date. Of course there might be no release date, especially
for night-shift parts, or there might not be a known official release date but
that doesn't mean that date would never happen so they are still listed prior
to an official release.
It would be interesting to know which part it was as the OP states they were
obtainable from a PAB wall, so this suggests it was already in an official store
and so would not be a night-shift type part.

I think the point is that even if you bought the part here a decade ago, who
is to say that that seller's source was legitimate?

The part has been retired for 30 years. This is 99.9% sure just a test part that
escaped the factory.

| I wouldn't relist that part without permission, and I doubt you'll get
permission to sell a part like that on a site owned by TLG.
You should easily be able to sell it elsewhere though.

"Escaping the factory" is not the same as legitimate routes such as from
a PAB wall.
It is old. It might have happened a long time ago. But if LEGO wants to stop
illegitimate pieces from being produced and stolen now, they have to put a stop
to all pieces like that. Otherwise, in 30 years time, those new illegitimate
Vader helmets all become fair game to list as they are old and it happened a
long time ago.

If it is from a new released set that just hasn't been inventoried yet, then
that is really silly. You'd think they would have more things to do than
delete parts like that from sale.

Than what about these known stores that list old "Q-parts" from the 90s
in vast amounts. These parts probably originate from model shops. How do we know
these were obtained in a legal way? Should that be allowed.

"Escaping the factory" is not the same as legitimate routes such as from
a PAB wall.
It is old. It might have happened a long time ago. But if LEGO wants to stop
illegitimate pieces from being produced and stolen now, they have to put a stop
to all pieces like that. Otherwise, in 30 years time, those new illegitimate
Vader helmets all become fair game to list as they are old and it happened a
long time ago.
|
Than what about these known stores that list old "Q-parts" from the 90s
in vast amounts. These parts probably originate from model shops. How do we know
these were obtained in a legal way? Should that be allowed.
https://store.bricklink.com/MT_Bricks?itemID=114736387#/shop?o={%22invID%22:%22114736387%22}
|
It’s interesting that the parts are all new after 20ish years
Not even 1 person is selling them used?

I bought the part from bricklink my self in 2014.

I think the point is that even if you bought the part here a decade ago, who
is to say that that seller's source was legitimate?

Especially in the 1990s, there were many legal ways such parts found their way
out of the factory. Leftover parts were, for example, sold in model shops and
employee shops. Employee children got to play with prototype sets to evaluate
them, and were allowed to keep them. Those were different times.

Which parts have been on a PAB wall that have not been released? The BAM minifig
parts get catalogued and I cannot remember any examples of parts from PAB walls
that have never been released. Even if there were other legitimate routes for
other unreleased parts, it doesn’t mean all unreleased parts should be allowed
here.

I believe a lot of Warm Yellowish Orange parts were recently released at the
Florida LEGOLAND PAB? They definitely were never released in anything else, and
they were most likely old product from the model shop that had been sitting around
for almost 20 years. There have been lots of legitimate ways over the course
of LEGO history to obtain many rare and unique items.

Yes from individual LEGOLAND centres (I also mentioned them earlier) but not
from regular PAB walls.

Parts like that are officially released, same with all the BAM exclusive parts.
They are not in retail sets, but they are widely available and catalogued here
as existing. Hence there is no issue with them being listed compared to the illegitimate
parts.
