Hi there.
Following up on the just just send out newsletter;

It stated clearly that sets have to be marked as a custom set , instead as "incomplete"
when minifigures are missing.

As of now the rules on this are somewhat subject to point of view.

Also it states on the page before the definitions that incomplete sets status
does count when minififures are missing.

"Item For Sale Condition (New/Used) and Sub-Condition (Complete/Incomplete/Sealed)
must adhere to their respective Definitions. For example, sets which have been
previously built must be listed as Used. Sets without Minifigures must be listed
as Incomplete."

From page :
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=103

"Incomplete - Contents are brand new, but may have been removed from plastic
bags for inventory purposes or to remove other contents from the set. The set
is missing some of the contents, instructions or original box/packaging. The
description should clearly state what exactly is missing."

From page :
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=102

Kijd regards.

I also have a other related question;

Does the same line continue down to part level for special parts thst come in
its own package?

This would implicate :
Capes and Nets for example.

New parted out parts, that are removed from their package should be "incomplete"?

And can only be New when kept and stored in its package?

Regards

There is no setting for incomplete parts.

I doubt it, as the same cape, for example, can come in multiple different boxes
along with other capes and sometimes without any box.

+1 and also there are listings for the boxed versions themselves.

That would be fun for the sets with two capes in one box. I forget if it was
a Star Wars or Avengers set last month where I was about to flip my lid when
I didn't see a second box.

I don’t see the suggestion you are making. Is this post in the correct area?
