Heh... Here's my list then. If I don't otherwise specify, assume I'm talking
grey & dark grey, followed by all the other colors. :)
1) Bricks. all sizes, but mostly 2x4
2) Plates. all sizes
3) Tiles. 2x2 and 1x1, then the other sizes.
4) Arches. 1x3, 1x4, 2x6, and the various other sizes
5) Low-sloped bricks, corners and apex bricks. Blue, green, tan, brown...
6) 1x4x5 ribbed door(1), in all colors.
7) 1x2x2 arched window w/lattice, blue, red, grey, green,

Lego Direct would hardly affect my retail spending at all. In fact, it might
increase it. Right now, if I need 1 or 2 or 10 of something, I'll buy sets.
If I need a gazillion of something, I buy grey brick packs ;) or spend
ridiculous amounts of money at parts auctions and sales. If I need 1 or 2 or
ten of something, I'll still go retail. And I'll still buy all the new sets
that interest me.
