... and wish you had more catalogs!!
You travel (miles) back to the shop whose inventory you know off by heart
just to check whether THAT set is really THAT price and does include THAT
piece/fig.
You stand in the shop and mull over a discounted set which you'd previously
ignored. You buy it and come back later the same day and buy a bunch more -
just in case.
You order a set on the net - before it arrives you espy the same set in a
store. You buy it - just in case.
You espy a shelf-worn set which you'd previously ignored for $25 in a store.
You look at it and put it back. Later that day you order the same set on the
net (MISB) for $75.
You dread getting any presents at all, in case they might not be lego and
your face will betray your disappointment.
