OK, I have Basic Set 125. It is exactly that..... a basic set. There are no
specialty pieces (besides some older bricks, windows & doors). If memory serves
me correctly, this is a set that has the 4 brick high doors that were used in
conjunction with the minifig stiffs back in the mid-70's. Old basic sets do not
command the premium prices of specialized or model sets, unfortunately. These
sets are from around 1975-76. If you look at some of the model builder sets from
that era (#390-96), you will see premium prices (#396 sells for up to $350 in
mint). But the basic sets don't command anywhere near this price (even in mint).
