Well, I was only visiting Baltimore, I'm actually living  up in Boston
(I found your message b/c it mentioned the Contruction Site).  I tried
to get a shuttle from the Kingston, MA TRU, but they were gone.  But
since I grew up about a mile from the TRU on Rte. 40 in Balto, I
snagged one the next time I went home to see the family (and no, I
didn't schedule the trip just to get the shuttle, but I might have if
I hadn't been going already <G>).

Okay, now for the 8480 Space Shuttles, the TRU in Kingston, MA, behind the
Independence Mall, has 6 or 7 8480s on the shelf, in what looked like, • good
shape.  I didn't price them, but I'm sure they were the standard $149.99 +
5% MA tax.  They had one Technic Giant Model set (the yellow one, didn't • get
the price or set number). Also, the TRU on the Baltimore Pike (west of • I695)
in Maryland had 8480s the last time I looked (May??).

Thanks Rob!  When I went into the TRU mentioned above (Rte. 40 in
Baltimore) there were four 8480s on the shelf.  As I left, there were
three. <G>  All had somwhat damaged boxes, save the one that I bought.
The shelf price was $159, but the one I bought rang up $129.  Perhaps
they'd reduce the price further for the damaged boxes (I was in a
hurry so I didn't try asking).

Adam -- I find it hard to believe that the Kingston MA TRU store had run out, because I was there the same day, June 30th 1999, and they had 9 sets (8 after I left the store 8-) The price was about $138 ($129.99 plus tax). There were 3 sets on the (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jul-99, to lugnet.loc.us.md.bal, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
