Anthony, You don't know me from Adam, I lurk more than anything. But I had to respond to this post. First off, I have zero knowledge of how the event was organized. I went in '04 and that was it. I don't know if anyone got paid or not. But I have (...) (20 years ago, 8-Sep-06, to lugnet.events, lugnet.events.brickfest) !!

(...) Yes, it matters to me where the money goes. Why? What do *I* get out of brickfest?

Hello, Lego Fans! I am a newbie to this site and I would like to, if I may, open a thread for listening to your honest opinions regarding a prototype display case that we are considering putting on the market. This is NOT to solicit sales, so don't (...) (20 years ago, 8-Sep-06, to lugnet.general)
