Kevin, make sure you ask if they have any old LEGO or spare parts (in German
it's "ersatz teile"). Asking if they have old LEGO has netted me some
pretty neat stuff (2 wooden box sets, 2 Thatcher Perkins Locomotives, 40 old
supplemental parts packs, lots of sets from the 1970s, etc). The best finds
are in small town toy stores (family owned preferably). Happy hunting!
