It is not my desire to purchase blocks from anyone other than The LEGO
Group. I pointed out the competition's site to make one very good
point. They build sets that many of us would like to own...
Unfortunately they are made by the WRONG company, and do not meet the
high standards we demand of LEGO, so I will not buy them.

It depends on how you present your case. I feel that dozens of
people, if not hundreds, have publicly stated the reasons they are as
dissatisfied with The LEGO Group's ability to service the adult market
as I have become.
We will present ourselves as professionally as possible. So many of
us LEGO fans are professionals. We just happen to enjoy collecting,
designing, building and playing with LEGO.
