| Hey Y'all:
Whereas some Lugnuts have been left out of the mix because of their geographic
locations, maybe those of us in the U.S. and Canada with previous dealings
with others abroad can fill in the gap and help these people get their hands
on some bulk stuff. I know I have a few people I can help out. Maybe you
others do too. I think showing some community spirit would be great and the
plus side is that you can probably score the discounts by doing others a small
service -- well, presuming you weren't going to hit the five and ten packs
minimum requirement for the discount yourself in all categories.
-- Richard
P.S. I think Todd has asked us to not just "me too" and "thanks" as regards
these posts from Brad -- so unless you have something substantive to say,
maybe you should refrain from saying it. Brad knows we are happy thus far and
expecting more and better as time passes. If you disagree with what I have
said or if I am dead wrong about it, feel free to ignore this reminder and
post away. I'm just trying to help things along and make it so that Brad will
ACTUALLY read the more meaningful posts.

I for one will be happy to help those folks from overseas, though I may
ask that you coordinate orders through one of the folks I regularly deal
with.

In general I think that's worth paying attention to. I think in this
case it's good for people to let off that little shout of YAY!

I'd have to disagree. I don't think you can say thank you too many times for
Lego Direct going live. There have been hundreds of posts to Brad Justis
thoroughout his building LEGO Direct. I would think that a hundred or so thank
yous and kudos are well deserved and would be well appreciated. Maybe the
proper place should be the thank you thread I've started.
Of course the ultimate thank you, and the expansion or demise of LEGO Direct,
will be the number of orders placed (so get your plastic out and buy some
ABS!!!).

It would be interesting if Brad could divulge some statistics on the volume
of business they do through this new offering in it's first couple weeks. I
spent $100 this morning and can see dropping another $50 or so in the next
couple weeks.
