I dunno about you guys, but I am truly an addict. Last week, my girlfriend pointed out that I spend $1-2K on Lego per month and I thought I had really curbed my appetite for the stuff. Back when you could find more older sets, there were days I'd (...) (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Huh-- I just don't see it for some reason, unless it's on a separate ebay site? Searches for "6086" "lego castle" "black knights castle" "dungeon masters" all came up nada for the one you're describing... But yeah, it's certainly not unheard (...)

(...) Oh gosh no. Just checking Ebay for semi-recent sales reveals someone bought a 6067 (Guarded Inn) MISB for $232.50, a 6075 (yellow castle) for $207.50, a 6081 for $155.50, and an MISB 6090 for $152.50 :) And I seem to remember an MISB 6086 (...) (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Well, he did say "spent in one day", so I'd think that $600 counts. Other than the $1200 order for Mario, I'm thinking the most I've done in one day is about $600, but I'd have to dig through my receipts. (...) Hmm, most expensive set? (...) (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

Mine is easy, the most I have spent is on the Yellow Castle, $150 or something. I may be an amateur, but if nothing else I bet this is the most that most castle people have spent on a single set (however much they paid for Yellow Castle). (...) (23 years ago, 4-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
