After I politely pointed out to him that a set this size can (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Given the "built-in" nature of shipping costs at S@H, it only makes logical (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)

Which is nice when you're ordering one or two things, but when you're ordering 100, it's silly -- you're paying a huge markup, and (...) (25 years ago, 21-Dec-99, to lugnet.dear-lego)
