I have a question about Catawiki item 922351 .

The bag I have is the same as the image and the number is correct but it has a different label.

The label I have is green on the front with "Pickwick" and on the back it says "finest quality since 1753".

Should this now be entered as a separate item in the catalog or should this be added to the details This should be mentioned.

Who or who has the right answer for me.

Thank you in advance for the effort.

Hello Skroets,

I am not a teabag collector, but I am a user of the CataWiki Catalog and I think that each individual item should be listed separately in the CataWiki Catalog. What you are describing now is in any case a different tea bag than the example you cited (by the way very clearly described, I think. Is the third image the tea bag?).

In the Catalog it is always a a matter of searching very carefully before adding anything to avoid duplicates. But if your teabag is not there yet, it simply has to be added to the CataWiki Catalog! I think you will please many collectors with it.

I did a quick search for Green Tea and came across a lot, so I was not very wise, but are you sure that you are not 2263745? The only difference is that it comes from the Pure Green series by Pickwick and that is therefore on the top right of the outer bag and not on your example. He would then from this series coming.

Is a tea bag with Pure on it not also part of that series or should it be explicitly stated in the top right of the outer bag (what do you collectors call that?)?

Hello DisneyMeentwijc,

thank you for your comment but the item 2263745 it is certainly not.

The bag and number correspond to 922351 and the label with 2263745 .

Go it Enter as a new item and see if there is a reaction.

The third image is always the label that is attached to the relevant tea bag.

Have also searched at Pickwick for the production number but my copy is also not included.

I think the bags are the same, only the label is different, then you don't have to put it on again because you have several bags that are different from the label on Catawiki.

It is It is a pity that you put the bags on it because if you are not sure you could also have asked 1 of the employees of the tea bags. They would have liked to get you started. Now they have double the work of it.

It is more about having different teabags on it and not different labels, which could be better in a separate section and there might not be an idea for the future yet.

Okay, a good lesson for the next time, you will learn as you go.

Have the items on it in consultation and in good faith.

So they will be removed, no problem .

Thank you for your response.

1 of the employees will let you know if they have it removed.

You can always add it as a note to your own collection.

And a manual has recently been released of tea bags how best to put them on Catawiki.

He did that through this forum, right? That's what this forum is for. It is not a private club of collectors where everything is arranged through back rooms (read personal messages among themselves). The forum is for showing other people what problems people are facing and how they are being helped. That way it doesn't happen again and other collectors benefit from it too. Furthermore, a burden is also taken off the shoulders of administrators, because then they do not have to answer all emails personally, but respond 1 x here and then many questions have probably already been answered.

And why are 2 bags with different labels not different items? CataWiki is a Catalog for all bags with their different variations, isn't it? Again, I don't collect it, but I do think we should be as complete a Catalog as possible. If a record has a different cover that is not already in it, then I simply enter it if the cover really belongs to it.

And what is actually meant by label? The only thing I can find in the nice manual are label type and label info, but unfortunately without an image.

Just off-topic: Nice manual, the first with images and that makes it a lot clear again. Unfortunately, I think a barcode per bag is unique and there is no identical tea bag.
