(...) I've heard on the winds that a castle people accessory set is coming and it will contain a female figure. I don't know anymore then that, so don't press me...

I used to be extremely aggressive in looking for Lego and for the most part I was sometimes very successful. But after a while it became harder and harder to come across the good stuff. So much so that it quickly became apparent that if you spent (...) (23 years ago, 24-May-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.castle)

(...) One thing that I think is kind of neat here is that the lack of a 2nd hand market in most of these packs says that they actually mostly went to people who wanted them for themselves instead of to resell. I'm sure we will see some on eBay and (...) (23 years ago, 24-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I'm guessing that these thoughts will drag down prices somewhat. Which may be a bad thing. The good prices are what gets non-FOLs scouring the used market and putting these things up for sale (I think the bulk of my eBay buying is from non (...)

(...) Ya. But just look at it as "do I want the enjoyment of having it nowish enough to pay X for it" rather than the other way... if I stress out for 1/2 hour about the decision, that's a cost too... So stop worrying and buy buy buy. Or sell sell (...) (23 years ago, 24-May-01, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.castle, lugnet.lego.direct)
