Laughing? No. I said "with SOME amusement". Sure, I'm shelfish sometimes
I'll admit but then again who isn't?
But it didn't sit too comfortably with me seeing people who I had traded
sucessfully with in the past shell out big bucks for pieces I could get for
very little. But at the end of the day there was very little I could do.
As for hogging, well I'll certainly laugh at that statement. 50% of my last
two orders have gone to AFOL's overseas. I won't name them but because of
their willingness to go out of their way to help me I had no hesitation in
replying in kind.
I'm not trying to make it seem like I'm some kind of angel because I'm not
but I certainly wasn't hogging anything.
In all honesty I've enjoyed the various discussions on this topic. If
anything it's made me realise just how passionate some people are about
LEGO. It sadden's me though that the really creative people in this
community may never get the chance I got.
