Question

CliqChris

I've noticed a sets that are not even released are listed as being owned. How is that possible?

Mistaken clicks?

That or people just jumping the gun and checking it as owned knowing that they'll buy it the second it comes out.

In any case, it isn't anything to be concerned about :o)

Could be review sets, I had a couple of polybags a few months before they were widely available earlier this year.

I have a couple of accounts to provide an additional list. For my second account I use the owned/wanted checks for a different purpose.

Alright, I thought maybe we had some Lego employees keeping track of their sets!

Most likely it'll be kids mucking about. I do plan to hide the owned figure until we mark the set as released.

Maybe people use the categories for different purposes. For example, I'm a minifig completist, so I want everything and use the wanted category for figs I have on order from bricklink. Maybe some people tick that they own a set, but it really means something else to them, like they've preordered it or something.
