Oh, I should add, I talked the last guy out of selling his just about as he was about to decide to sell it to me. (1) 1 - well sort of, but it makes a better story that way. I have fragments of two different copies of this but don't yet have one (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Re: [FS] - eBay - McDonald's Promo set, box only - 25 cents
 
Someone mailed me to remind me that the set is also available free with a purchase. I think they actually were a disgruntled eBay seller, and were being sarcastic with me, but I could be wrong. Nevertheless they raised a good point, whether they (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.auction)

  New Group Idea
 
We should have a lugnet.cad.dat.clones group, now that someone over on RTL is doing megablocks parts. bThe group would be expressly for posting clone lego parts, official sets and MOC's. -- Jonathan Wilson wilsonj@xoommail.com (URL) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
 
  Re: 7740? Price
 
These seem to be worth more than 7745's are... I know I would give you 150 USD for it without blinking very hard and I suspect that's well below market at this time. If you really want to sell it, hold an auction. It's a sweet set. (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

  Import/Export
 
I will be in the Denver area for a few days next February, prior to going up to Steamboat. Where are the best places to buy LEGO over there. I could bring over sets 'unavailable' and look to buy some US only sets Cheers Alan Kershaw (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.us.co)

Bram: The source code for HTML Tidy is available. I think you get the URL if you run it with the "-help" option.

  Re: The Sad State of Minifig Box #1
 
Well, the box came to me (first person to get it), with many old, beat up, missing lots of parts type torsos (after all, Todd originally said these were parts he was considering throwing away), so some of those in the box are probably the originals.
