I spend way to much money on Lego(About 300$ a month)
Maybe it's because i recently came out of the "Dark Ages". I manage this
because i have my own company(in the computer business), with the option to
buy Lego without paying VAT. I try to sell some of the sets i have multiples
off.
I also have the option to get Lego directly from the supply line to
toystores from friends in the business, but i do prefer to buy cheap at Toy
sales.
