I'm a little confused about this post also.  James contacted me a couple of
months ago when I advertised my 6090 for sale.  He seemed interested for a
while until he decided that my price with shipping was close to what he could
pay for a new set in his local store.

I sincerely doubt that anyone could find a 6090 in any store anywhere in
Australia, especially not in Melbourne which is where I believe he lives.
He may have meant that he could buy the lastest castle set for that price?
Of course, it is entirely possible that he bought or traded a 6090 from
elsewhere.

I understand that James is 12 (other AFOLs in Aus have met him and
confirmed this).  His lugnet posts seem rather contradictory at times,
I'm not sure how much of this can be put down to youth and inexperience.

http://news.lugnet.com/loc/uk/?n=4066 makes interesting reading.  I do
not know if this was ever satisfactorily resolved from the UK seller's
point of view.

To James: I mean no offense but you must realise that many lugnetters will
be wary of trading with you if they perceive that you are not being
upfront with them.

Hello, To all those who have replied, I got a 6090 MISB from the internet at $150USD at YAHOO! Auctions, I have recently been looking at it and I don't seem to want it, obviously I wouldn't be able to get one in Melbourne! About the train station (...)
