 | | LEGO availability in Europe vs. US
|
|
There used to be many sets (like the 12V train sets) that you couldn't get in the US that were available in Europe. I haven't known this to be the case lately. I'm planning on going to Europe soon. Does anyone know if there are sets I should watch (...) (26 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Yeah, I understood what you meant - I just didn't notice. I don't consider "damned" to be considered bad in the right context - but when repeated, it seems harsher and less nice (IMO). I wouldn't have said it that anyway if I had noticed that (...) (26 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.us.ma.bos)
