| | | | | | | I just tried it. I saw my set list (on Peeron, not Lugnet) and picked one of the sets I owned (8860). I then used "Try to build" and although it got most of the parts, There were several that were yellow and a few red. I do think it's a great tool. (...) (22 years ago, 6-May-03, to lugnet.inv)

Since if you own an ISD (10030), and try to build one from your parts, it's already known you have the parts for it. So Peeron is checking if you have the parts to build (...)
