I tend to agree with Mike on this - I do no trading except through online
contacts.  And my needs are specific to vehicle parts, so I would hardly dent the
boags/boxes, while I could probably add some decent stuff that is of no use to me.

Larry,

I have a more novel idea:  how about starting the box out with people who have
nobody to trade with.  Out here in Fresno, it is about 3 1/2 to 4 hours to
drive to the nearest other AFOL.  No Lego in garage sales, swap meets or
antique stores.  My only source for Lego outside of TRU is eBay and Lugnet.
And I am also salivating over the old windows.  I would gladly get rid of my
classic space, castle and pirate stuff for them.

If anyone has train items or classic windows/doors and doesn't want to wait, I
would be more than happy to trade.

next???
Larry on your way to MPLS make a stop in Milw please???? it's on the
way!! Honest :) or just drop it out the window as you go over??
I'd even be nice and toss in a couple of whole poly bags I've got
sitting here... besides a bunch of other stuff I'm sure I would easily
find in my 5 gal bucket of "seldom" used parts...
I do believe this is going to be fun to see just what some people have
no use for.. Like they always say, someones garbage is someone else's
treasure :)

Sounds like a plan, Stan. I fly in Sunday, out Friday bound for MPLS.

I even promise not to take too many of the windows or trees. Hm... gotta
plan what to bring for input fodder.  A couple Trans yellow 1x4x3
thinwalls, a couple white train windows, some Royal Kings (to get Doyle
excited), an Air Tank (to make Harro salivate), a fiber optic unit, some
1.2x6 train railings, some orange bricks (to get John Neal all worked
up) an astronaut gold visor... this might be fun!
