the back of the shelf. I picked it up and it was a 6105 Medieval Knights!

waiting for a while so they could discuss it. Someone named the price of
$3.00, and I bought it and brought it home. WooHoo!

| (...) I have a similar story. It happened last year. I was shopping at TRU. I was on the lookout for some Outback sets when I saw it: a 6538 Rebel Roadster. The box was in sorry shape so I checked the polybag inside and it was unopened. I picked it (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jun-00, to lugnet.general)
