cant believe Lego would deliberately sell inferior bricks via a bulk ordering
process.
Lego seem to take pride in quality.
Why would they run two machines side by side, 'set bricks' and 'bulk bricks'?
Cost cannot be that much of a factor.
They must know that the AFOLs who pressed for bulk ordering are going to be
the most picky bunch.
Sounds more like the German shop owner doesnt want you buying your bricks from
Lego direct instead of him!!
I hope not anyway. Cant talk from experience but have several hundred windows
on order! So I hope they match the ones I've got.
