You may have hit on a good point here! I'm sure that this is a concern to
Lego, especially if they have been reading the groups ehre and have sensed
the general unhappiness with most of the current sets.
This would be easy to fix with a clause in the contract between Lego and
anyone wishing to purchase large ammounts of bulk bricks. Something simple
like, "You may not sell any unofficial non-lego sets," should do the job.
I'm sure that any order large enough to build sets from would require a
contract of some kind.
