I often wish for this information and I see it asked on the forum. I was just looking at an open box, sealed bags set on eBay that I might like to buy, but the seller says how many bags there are and notes that they don't know if that is all of them. Well, I don't know either. Not sure if this works, but can't you look up the instructions on Lego and page through to see how many bags per step there are? Are at a minimum, at least know how many numbered steps there are? Most of the older sets did not have numbered bags. You got a bunch of clear bags (sometimes with air perforations). Sometimes stickers were in a bag, and sometimes loose. Nita Rae Classic sets still aren’t numbered. Maybe Creator too? And small sets might have two bags but no numbers.
