Tom and I often end up bidding on the same lots, he usually wins ;-( deeper
pockets, but the point is that we both want MANY more garage doors, for
building not collecting, hoarding or resaling.
If I had the chance to buy more doors, I'd need more plate, bricks and
slopes to build the models I'm collecting the doors for. Greater access to
"special" parts will cause us to buy more "basic" bricks not less.

WOW, I knew I had lost quite a few to you, but 150! Share the wealth ;-)
