I think it would be interesting to know just how much each and every AFOL spends
each week/month/year on Lego. Just to try to gauge how much in potential lost
sales the company would incure. Would it be significant?
Have any Bricklink stores curbed their spending? I know they buy dozens or more
sets at a time.
For instance, I know I spent just over $11,000.00 last year. Most of that was
spent at the retail level, but not at retail prices. HAIL, the clearance sale.
A smaller amount was spent on the secondary market such as BL and evilbay.
Now I realize not everyone here is just going to stop buying new sets because of
the color change. I for one will not be buying any new sets. Well, until they
are 75% off.
