Brown chairs (like in the Flash Speeder) would make a great piece to have in bulk from Lego Direct. Lets see: stadiums for soccer (600 seats), movie theaters (50 seats per screen), race track bleachers (600 seats), stage theaters (300 seats), Castle (...)

(...) Somehow I'm expecting LD to be a little bit more expensive than 4 cents a part shipping included... It is possible that for normal bricks they will trim their profit margins to approach the bucket price per brick (closer to 1-2 cents per (...) (24 years ago, 22-May-00, to lugnet.general)

(...) Two points here: 1. LEGO Direct WILL impact sales of regular sets (even if they sell no pieces which are in sets, some people will chose to buy pieces instead of sets with their limited LEGO budget) 2. As long as the service is priced such (...) (24 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.theory)
