I think the price is OK. I know who bought it; he seems to be cornering the market.:-P I only know three people who have this set (with or without box), including the new owner of this one. It was on Matt Chiles want list and Todd Lehman's want (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.theory)

I believe they were printed in white, though the stone patterns were in red not grey. I have to admit they look tanish white to me on my screen also. I'm guessing they have to be grey and it's just a bad bad picture. I'd mail the seller if you (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) "Tower not responding" really means that it can't write to the tower. Check batteries and the range. (...) Weird. As far as I can tell, exit is called correctly in all circumstances where "tower not responding" could be generated. (...) Again, (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I've got good news/bad news. The good news is that the Yellow Castle WAS available in the USA in 1981. 6075 was the USA set number, while 375 was the European set number. Check the LUGNET database: (URL) bad news is that I cornered the market (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)

It appears that for the buyer, this set was one of the last 2 sets need to complete his space collection. Given that the set is supposedly rare, I can understand paying a premium for the set in order to complete the collection. I wouldn't have paid (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.theory)

Check this out-- looks like TAN castle wall sections! (URL) say they were a yellowed white, but white castle walls didn't come with those brick patterns! Could it be some bizarre lighting that's making them tan? But there's another set for auction (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.general)

In case anyone is looking for the town Police Station (6332), the Potomac Mills Outlet store has _one_ for $44.59 (MSRP $59.99). I think Buffie would like to move it out since it's hard to find a good shelf spot for a single set. When I mentioned (...) (25 years ago, 7-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
