  Re: Bulk Prices!
 
(...) <excellent price / cost analysis snipped> (...) A few points to consider in the price analysis: I believe the 1200 piece buckets, and other, similar offerings, are kind of a loss leader for Lego; they don't aim to make a profit on them, but (...)

  Re: Bulk Prices!
 
(...) I remember seeing this in RTL and market.theory<?>. Recently picked up 15. Auction off everything but the black and green. When I saw the bulk prices from LD I began thinking maybe I should hold on to some. I believe there is another tub (...) (24 years ago, 1-Jul-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Additions at Lego Direct
 
(...) Thanks for the heads up! True to form though, there is no mention of the third page from the first page of the Bulk Ordering pages (not as of 1:35 pm pacific time). Of course, some of us are guilty of such ommissions from time to time...but (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Additions at Lego Direct
 
Hiya Everyone, I didn't see a post of this, so I thought I would pass the word. A third page has been added to LD site. It seems to cover most of what everyone was talking about here as far as product errors! Keep building! - Jim Foulds (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  and bulk packs update as well...
 
Please excuse that I keep replying to my own e-mail, but I've just seen that TLC has added a thrid page of bulk ordering as well (for the mix-up pieces, I guess): (URL) Christian --- xTI@N. P.S.: Note that I usually reply slow... ---...--- The World (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct)  
 
  Re: Spreadsheet to order from Lego Direct
 
Bryan, thanks for your kind words! Good name, too. In the next version I may add a link to Partsref - since I'm still working on a modem myself I'm sensitive to the size issue. I do hope to keep it up-to-date as the selection improves - somebody (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: Spreadsheet to order from Lego Direct
 
Heather, That is a really great spreadsheet! I hope you continue to upgrade and share it with the community as Lego Direct expands their product line (with real train doors & windows please!). It's funny... Using your tool, I came to the realization (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Spreadsheet to order from Lego Direct
 
I used Jason Catena's very useful table of sets available from Lego Direct and made an Excel 97 spreadsheet that calculates total cost of an order when you fill in how many copies you want of each set, including discount and shipping. It's at (URL) (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct) ! 
 
  Re: Bulk Prices!
 
(...) What do you mean the 1200 piece buckets are discontinued? Where did this information come from? I've never seen a posting about this topic. I find it odd that TLC would deprive the general public of basic bricks when many of them have no idea (...) (24 years ago, 30-Jun-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: I am looking for a roof brick.
 
(...) Hmmmmm, yes gray is rarer than yellow, but it was not available to the public (was it?). One could make a case for saying that any colors not available to us, but available to the model shops for LEGOLAND buildings are the rarest. If these (...)
