| WHAT???????? $99.99 for 8002??? What in the Sam Hill are they smoking at your local toystore? The MSRP for 8002 is $49.99. All the prices you mention are WAY high, by nearly a factor of two! I suggest you move to a bigger town ASAP! :-) -Bill Leue (...) (26 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.loc.au)

| (...) Guess they didn't want to break the $ 100 mental barrier ,but as we all know 99.99 gets rounded up. At TRU $42something for 8000 and $64something for 8001 seems to ring a bell. By the way what's Wollongong like toystorewise for Lego, is it (...) (26 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
