|
|
Just a while ago I got a call from the Georgia LEGO Outlet. They are getting some new old stuff in, and apparently are calling people who have placed orders there and soliciting pre-orders. Neato! (26 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.dear-lego)

(...) Once the auction is ended, the ONLY binding contract is the high bid. If the high bidder reneges, the seller is allowed to contact you, but you are under no obligation to accept.

In the end, this is all moot. I'm keeping the pics to myself, and should have never brought it up. As a webmaster of sorts, it's very easy to jump out and say "look what I've got!" I should have gone to LEGO and asked, like I am doing now. If LEGO (...) (26 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

I built about 5 of those style tables. They seemed quite more work than they should be, but maybe I am just not very proficient at woodworking. (Probably the latter). If you want easy tables, make them with 3/4" plywood and use 2x4s on their edge to (...) (26 years ago, 23-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)
