Well, I guess the problem is in the definition of “serious” and “very serious.”
And saying “it’s on a case by case basis” won’t help those who genuinely want
to know how to list their sets without risking infringing.
(OTOH, rhetorical “what if” will still pop up anyway.)
| NEW: If instructions or box are missing, it is INCOMPLETE at best. It may not
even be able to be listed as INCOMPLETE if the essence of the set is missing
(all the minifigures in an IP set) or if only a small portion of the whole is
present (i.e. a single minifigure or a part).
|
Wasn’t there a tolerance for new, not yet catalogued, minifigures, when only
the set entry exists (so, without an inventory yet)?

Yes, there was. But frankly, they should have always been listed in the Custom
section. People still use the Custom section extensively when trying to list
things early, so we know this is a viable option.

I would propose a more precise definition?
To be considered Complete:
* Box and eventual Instructions may be missing if clearly described in the Lot.
If not, to be considered Incomplete:
* Box and Instructions may be missing if clearly described in the Lot.
* All eventual Inventoried Minifigures and Gears should be present.
* All eventual sticker Sheets should be present.
* Other missing parts or items should represent a relatively minor value eg.
less than 10% of the total Average Price Guide Value of this parted out Set --
at the date of the lot upload/update.
If not, it should be listed as Custom Item.

So it’s for Used only?

… or, for Used, stickers applied, or a mix of applied stickers and (incomplete)
sticker sheets.

Darn yes.
I'm Used to sell New only.
A bit confused too.
