BrickLink already keeps track of what sets I have parted out. I can go look up the log of my past uploads. If would be helpful if sellers were automatically notified when a set they have parted out in the past has its inventory updated. Then I would be able to go double-check that lot to make sure it wasn't from the newer version of the set inventory. It would allow me to provide better customer service because I would have less errors in my inventory. Here is the reason for my suggestion: Say in July 2016 I parted out 20 of a set. In August 2016, someone updates the inventory with a variant part. I am left completely unaware that half of my parts were actually the second variant until I notice a mixture while pulling the order. Another version of this scenario is when LEGO changes the build and the number of pieces in a lot changes. My inventory might say I have 120 pieces in a lot, but I actually only have 100. If someone buys out the lot, hopefully I can find more of that piece in a set I have waiting to part out. If I were notified of set inventory updates on sets I have parted out, I could go check my inventory before there is a problem. Romy

For the second scenario, don't you count parts when parting out? If so, there wouldn't be an error that needs correcting. (87 months ago, Mar 23, 2017, to Suggestions)
