I wouldn't mind doing something like this, it just takes the money (which I
don't have yet!).  But i'm getting there...I'm getting more and more money
as I go along, with reinvesting all of the money I get from my auctions into
buying more lego on clearance.  I still miss more then I get though, since I
don't always have enough money at the right time  :/

I like the idea too, and it could be set up as a member type thing to help you
get the kitty up, so each person who wants to buy joins in.  That would allow
you greater buying power, and I'd be willing to look for sets here at some of
those lowered prices to help you fill out the orders.

But you'd also need a list of the parts wanted and the true quanity people are
searching for.  To help you decide whether it would be best to buy 50 service
packs and break them down to send back out or say 10 starwars sets to sell out
particular pieces.

It is rare that I pay full price for the sets I get, but man, I have parts here
that I will never use.  I would be willing to add them to an inventory for
someone else to purchase if they wish.

Hey Troy, we don't live that far apart, want to go into business???
