| I had figure SW0121 removed from my listings. The reason given was "Reason:
Item is incorrectly defined as New/Used or Complete/Incomplete/Sealed". But
I had the figure marked as "used" and mentioned the parts that were missing
on the figure. I realize you can't sell incomplete figures but this figure
is not inventoried so there is no way to sell individual pieces from this figure.
There are also numerous amounts of this figure listed on Bricklink with missing
parts, broken parts, or with colored parts swapped out for different colors.
So why would mine be removed if there is no way to list it on Bricklink besides
custom. Especially when all these other figures are allowed to stay.

I can understand how this is annoying and frustrating for a seller to deal with.
It is my understanding that listings like this are only flagged when a member
fills out a form and sends in the info. If I am wrong about this, please correct
me. So yours was likely singled out because someone, well, singled you out.
Also, BrickLink seems to think that using Custom listings is a viable alternative
for anything and everything that doesn't fit the guidelines (rules.) Because
of the difficulty finding such listings via our Search, it's not obviously,
but it's all that we've got!

That's untrue for this listing. This has been discussed previously in the
forum I believe. The figure cannot be inventoried so it is allowed to have missing
pieces if they are mentioned in the description. Correct me if I'm wrong
somebody. There are five different Star Wars figures that are similar to this
one. None of them can be inventoried so they all have numerous listings for missing
parts. Why are those all ok but mine is not?

But who knows if that's changed

One of a few analogies; a good percentage of these no longer light-up and we
all know the minifig surgery involved in the unintended battery change, so should
they continue to be allowed listing ability within the "Light-up Lightsaber"
catalog listings, if they don't light-up?
Not enough mindfulness, is all. Not necessarily those doing the reporting, you're
always gonna have an amount of ignorance among those types, but those processing
these reports should have better judgement, or at least the necessary depth of
knowledge for such unilateral and intrusive action. They could also, using that
better judgement, determine when to inquire
An example of what I mean by depth of knowledge: Received a notification that
a watch set was removed from our inventory. This now older set was sold with
two cape variants back in the day, well-know at least among LEGO SW collectors.
But the catalog listing never was updated with this information, and so away
it goes... Along with it went the salient researched history of that LEGO item
within the listing description, for all to read. Which is really the unfortunate
part of this story
Not biggie for us though, and would never have mentioned it were it not for reading
this post. The action actually gets me off my lazy butt to actively sell the
rare SW item, sadly elsewhere now.

Yep, I was almost positive it was discussed and that the decision that was reached
was to mention any problems in the description. Was this a rogue administrator
who removed this without understanding the previously agreed on decision/policy?
Would love for Russell to chime in on this.
That's also a great point. The figures state in the name "Light-Up".
So if the figure doesn't light up, wouldn't that make it incomplete.
Cause that is a good number of these figures that should be removed. It's
outrageous that mine was removed.

I would figure that your average employee at BrickLink who processes this stuff

Well firstly I think the minifg should have an inventory breakdown available
and where that is not in place I think exceptions should be made for missing
parts particularly where a minifig is rare because removing such items that are
already scarce does not help to serve prospective buyers with searching for these
things.
The only thing I would say is that they probably don't like the fact that
they feel the missing hair can be sourced fairly cheaply and easily

If your fig wasn't removed automatically by some algorithm, it was likely
due to the missing hair and round plate. Also, the other are still listed someone
reported yours and not the others.

And this had been discussed prior and was said that the figure can be listed
that way since it does not have an inventory. Which doesn't make send because
the figure can be inventoried since the parts are removable. But the fact mine
was taken down and not the others is ridiculous. Especially since this was the

Don't waste any more of your time/effort. Lateral moves is my advise, as

If we’re to adhere to the "catalog" as you espouse, the reality that
is “Can not be inventoried” by extension has no place in this discussion, I suppose

Try pulling back to see matters more wide angle and not try and argue conclusions
you've irrationally already made. In short, have discussions not to bolster
what you think that you know, but rather what you might add to your knowing

Apologies... Having more frequent episodes lately, last night was a doozy. Just
ignore me. Until I'm able to manage the Beast better, I'm gonna pull
back some more anyway.

I think you're right as I remember the discussion, but I don't know if
the result was "unoffical guidance" or an actual policy.
Based on current supply you have a minifigue that's going to become even
more valuable soon, even with the light not working. If you can buy the missing
parts to complete it I would do that.
I see some of the descriptions state that the battery was replaced. Maybe you
can get the light working too and really make some bank

Guidelines and even policy is pointless if it is not written down, and that is
written down in the rules rather than in the forum. Both users and staff need
to know what the policy is. An admin here saying something is OK is pointless
if something is reported and it goes to a different BL employee and they only
know the rules as written down.

If your fig wasn't removed automatically by some algorithm, it was likely
due to the missing hair and round plate. Also, the other are still listed someone
reported yours and not the others.

I don't remember this policy, but we did decide a few years ago to not allow
the inventorying of Technic minifigures and this presented the same sort of problem,
because we removed entries for the individual parts, like the foot.
Frayed capes and wands that do not light up will not cause a listing to be removed.
Missing hairpieces, missing capes, missing 1 x 1 round plates or any other missing
part WILL result in the listing being removed if reported.
An inventory is not necessary to determine if basic components are missing from
a listing. The image, the instructions, the Item Name, and any Additional Catalog
Notes all help set the scope of the entry.
The appropriate place for items missing parts is the Custom Items section. We
need to do a better job helping sellers list under the custom item section and
helping buyers find these listings. In fact, the whole section could use more
exposure in general.

Well yes if items like this and incomplete sets need to be listed as custom lots
then that's fine but just like how custom items appear at the top within
in a store search I think the same should apply to Custom lots within a generic
search. For instance on this page where I've done an example search for 'Lando'
:-
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/search.page?q=lando#T=A
There are two custom Lando minifigures including one of my own minifigs without
cape but they are right at the very bottom of the page (that's if anyone
should care or think to scroll that far down?) However if they are at the very
top people will notice them yet can still continue to scroll down with purpose
to their desired search be that looking under Lando 'Parts section' or
'Minifigures section' so as far as I can see it should just a case of
rearranging the positioning of the category sections. If that was done then Custom
lots would actually become a lot more worthwhile and nobody would have reason
to complain about being forced to use custom lots

Do I understand correctly that the hair, round plate, and light saber were missing
from the minifig? If that's the case then I could see why it was removed
- 3-4 pieces out of a total of 7-8 were missing.

So why aren't all the listings removed for every single one of these figures.
And how do you know there are 7-8 pieces since the figure "cannot be inventoried".
And the legs and head are not removeable.

they likely only remove the ones that are reported. if you or someone else

Seems rather implausible to me that someone would look for this figure. There
are 6 listed that were cheaper than mine. 2 of which are missing pieces. The
other 4 have problems. And my figure is the one that gets reported. How does
that make any sense?

Maybe they were shopping in your store for other things and ran across it and
reported it. You are driving yourself crazy and investing way too much time
in the why/who/what.

like the others mentioned a customer was probably in your store and saw it was
incomplete and reported the listing.

The main part is only one piece, so three of the four pieces of the figure were
missing. Once we have a chance to get the inventories for these figures into
the catalog, there will be no confusion over them.

Prior administrators would not let them be inventoried. The current team decided
to allow them to be inventoried later last year. All we are waiting for are good
images of the figures without all of the pieces that can come off easily. If
you would like to help with that, please do so.

Do I understand correctly that the hair, round plate, and light saber were missing
from the minifig? If that's the case then I could see why it was removed
- 3-4 pieces out of a total of 7-8 were missing.
|
The main part is only one piece, so three of the four pieces of the figure were
missing. Once we have a chance to get the inventories for these figures into
the catalog, there will be no confusion over them.
|
Wel, the figures are only 19 years old.
|
Prior administrators would not let them be inventoried. The current team decided
to allow them to be inventoried later last year. All we are waiting for are good
images of the figures without all of the pieces that can come off easily. If

I'm still planning to get to this project and have a new Darth Vader here
to get it started, but I better won't make any promises anymore when that
will happen (likely not this or next month as we expect around 100 new sets in
June which must be inventoried).

I don’t think they plan on taking the glued sections apart, I think the 1 arm,
4l bar, 1x1 plate, and the headgear can be removed along with the back and battery
but nothing else

I had the figure marked as "used" and mentioned the parts that were missing

is not inventoried so there is no way to sell individual pieces from this figure.
There are also numerous amounts of this figure listed on Bricklink with missing
parts, broken parts, or with colored parts swapped out for different colors.
So why would mine be removed if there is no way to list it on Bricklink besides
custom. Especially when all these other figures are allowed to stay.
|
Out of interest what part or parts were missing?

This is what I had written in the description. "Comments: No hair, round

I didn't see last night that you'd already answered my question. I realize
it doesn't answer the direct issue you are asking about, but it appears that
you can bypass the issue and sell yours for $40 if you just buy $3 worth of parts
to complete him. I don't know if you've been treated unjustly, but it
is to your own advantage to do that.

I don't think they have been treated unjustly. The rule is that minifigures
must be complete to list them as minifigures. It wasn't complete, so it was
removed as it had been reported. I don't think BL staff are making judgements
about whether they should be allowed to waive the rules in particular cases.
The rule is there and they apply it. It broke a rule and it was removed.
The unjust bit is that they are not inventoried so sellers do not get the opportunity
to part them out, so these are somewhat different to other incomplete minifigures.

If you’re saying the only unjust part is that the seller cannot list/see the
inventory then that actually also makes removing the listing unjust since the
seller has no other means of listing their available parts? With an item of this
value Bricklink should be asking the question “Why has this seller listed this
item incomplete?” and with no inventory available it is not hard to see why hence
removing such a listing is ‘Unjust’ and exceptions need to be made
Even if the seller is expected to buy the cheap missing parts, that’s fine but
in that case Bricklink needs to at least provide all the relevant info if this
is what is expected of them. To be honest I myself am not even sure what the
tile part at the end of the lightsaber even looks like and just because I recognize
the hair piece and colour it doesn’t mean every other seller will and whilst
you could research online on other sites you shouldn't really have to and
so if Bricklink themselves aren’t able to provide the relevant info or ability
to list these parts then that is of little fault of the seller and BL should
recognize this as a valid reason to list incomplete!

Item is incorrectly defined as New/Used or Complete/Incomplete/Sealed". But
I had the figure marked as "used" and mentioned the parts that were missing
on the figure. I realize you can't sell incomplete figures but this figure
is not inventoried so there is no way to sell individual pieces from this figure.
There are also numerous amounts of this figure listed on Bricklink with missing
parts, broken parts, or with colored parts swapped out for different colors.
So why would mine be removed if there is no way to list it on Bricklink besides
custom. Especially when all these other figures are allowed to stay.

Out of interest what part or parts were missing?
|
This is what I had written in the description. "Comments: No hair, round
plate, lightsaber, doesn't light up. Rest of figure looks in good shape."

I didn't see last night that you'd already answered my question. I realize
it doesn't answer the direct issue you are asking about, but it appears that
you can bypass the issue and sell yours for $40 if you just buy $3 worth of parts
to complete him. I don't know if you've been treated unjustly, but it
is to your own advantage to do that.
|
3 dollars worth of parts and another 15 dollars in shipping and taxes you mean?
