(...) My LEGO purchases are way down from last year as a direct consequence of the color change. So far in 2004, I have purchased a total of 3 4400 tubs. Compare that to last year, when I spent "mid three figures" every month on LEGO. There are a (...) (22 years ago, 15-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

Hi Jake, I x-posted your message and a brief translation of the questionaire at the 1000steine.de/forum (URL) And I filled in the questionaire of course. One thing is missing: The curreny for the input of how much you spend on LEGO per year. Hope it (...) (22 years ago, 15-Mar-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)

My set buying days are over. I will not buy any 2004 or later sets until such time as the grey and brown colors are changed back to their original versions (which I expect will be never). I believe that if Lego as a company would make such poor (...) (22 years ago, 15-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)

Done. I think your people will be surprised at how few of my Lego purchases are made at Shop @ Home or retail. (75% are made at eBay and BrickLink). I suspect there are many AFOLs with a similar percentage. (22 years ago, 15-Mar-04, to lugnet.lego, lugnet.general, FTX)
