Thank you for the response.... I look forward to the web interface / LEGO S@H orders... But I look forward to more bulk ordering possibilities even more... Gene Weissinger (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

This is good news! Please tell us that the same product line will be available in all countries and that there wont be too much pricing difference between countries, so that us aussies can get lego at prices comparable to what you americans pay. (24 years ago, 25-Aug-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

Well, it's the end of the week. And I did promise. So here's welcome (I hope!) news: On September 11, we will relaunch LEGO.com. As part of this relaunch, we will extend the LEGO Shop At Home service to the Internet. Though we may limit the (...)

| | Question for Brad on Bulk Ordering

Now that Brad has found his keyboard I would like to ask a question about requests for bulk ordering. The S@H catalog stated that Lego wanted to hear from us as to what parts we would like to see offered in bulk. Where are we suppose to do this? How (...)
