  Re: And the July Surprise is...
 
(...) Great idea -- why not leverage the production costs for the wall pieces by producing a US$5 "Inn Expansion Set": 2 tudor straight walls, 2 Tudor corner walls, and some black slopes and bricks? --DaveL (23 years ago, 10-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.theory)

Liffeywater a beer? Sure it's as black as Guinness.... Remember a big upset a while back when they discovered life in the river Liffey..... Anyway, why bother with Liffeywater, get the Water of Life: good ol' BlackBush! Duq "Larry Pieniazek" (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: And the July Surprise is...
 
(...) <snip> (...) Man, those are all REALLY excellent choices. Is it accidental that you chose a set with the black feathers? But anyway, those first two sets you mention are about as necessary as the Guarded Inn. Once you have some large castles, (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: And the July Surprise is...
 
(...) This is wonderful news! Let me be the 111th to thank you! It's a great feeling to know that as large a company as Lego is listening to it's fans, and is making such an effort to give them what they want. Bravo! Here are my wishes for future (...)

Brad & All, (...) Wow, talk about extremely awesome! I would have NEVER imagined TLC ever doing this. It is a dream come true! : ) (...) That is great, so people who own the original sets can say, yes, I have the original one as well. Great idea! (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: S@H suggestion
 
Hmmm it can remember multiple ship to addresses... yet it can't send a reply to my order with my correct name, which I know I typed correctly when I ordered...(I do know how to spell my own name..) shakes head... Tamy (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Old Parts in Legend Sets?
 
(...) I have another point: The Guarded Inn includes a large door (blue) and shutters (yellow, for the 1x2x2 window) that have not been used in new sets for some time now. It seems to imply that older parts can indeed return--although as to your (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)
 
  Lugnet has a problem
 
Lugnet has a problem. No one can have their own opinion if it differs from everyone elses. If they do, they are attacked. Read the posts that were in reply to my own, stating my discontent with the re-release of the Castle set the Guarded Inn. (...)

  Re: Old Parts in Legend Sets?
 
(...) Works for me. Motor Schmoter. Track Schmack. They can make it a push train for all I care. Just let me at those two tone yellow/red doors and the 1x2x2 gray windows!!! That set rules, as do the two additional cars you could get for it. In fact (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)
 
  Legends suggestion
 
First, thank you at everybody in Lego/Lego Direct that gets things moving. Already a lot of people have done many suggestions. For sure everybody wants a Legend set in the theme they favor. Here is my suggestions: Classic Space: 497/928 Galaxy (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Old Parts in Legend Sets?
 
(...) Good luck getting this one rereleased... If lego rereleases 4.5v or 12v train, it will likely be with a 9v motor and/or track. (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Questions about backordering a set...
 
(...) I placed a $135 order and received $85 worth of it last week. They charged me the whole $10 shipping charge up front. When I received the rest of my order this week there was no additional shipping charge. Maggie C. (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Questions about backordering a set...
 
(...) I haven't actually gone back and looked at my orders, but I'be lately had the impression that when part of your order is backordered, you end up only ever getting charged for the shipping on the amount shipped initially. Hmm, couldn't find any (...) (23 years ago, 9-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Actually, I believe the style from that vintage would have been torsos with no tabs at all... --Bill. (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: And the July Surprise is...
 
(...) I was just thinking of that... can you imagine a 7750 with the large red wheels and a bright red 9V motor in the tender? That would be sweet! Althought that would technically be a different set, so they would give it a new name/number etc. The (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Questions about backordering a set...
 
(...) When it ships, from what I can remember. (...) ONE charge. (...) Probably, since they can't have shipped it yet, since they don't have the sets yet. (...) If you CALL, I believe you can add on, but I don't know about online. -- | Tom Stangl, (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Questions about backordering a set...
 
(...) they place an authorization on your card now, but won't be charged until it ships. (...) just the shipping charge they tell you.

  Old Parts in Legend Sets?
 
I will be curious when the Guarded Inn arrives in July. Will it have the old style minifig heads with no open top? Or the newer style with the hole on top with what looks like the Mercedes emblem over the hole. I tend to think that the Legend sets (...)

  Questions about backordering a set...
 
Hey Y'all: Okay, so I backordered my lot of Guarded Inn sets...so far so good. 1. When will I actually be charged for this order -- today or when it ships? 2. If the totality of my order is sent in different parcels, will I be charged for shipping (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.shopping)
