They shouldn't think of it as "bothering" at all! 8^0 In previous
threads people have said that, even if TLC should go belly-up, they would
satisfy their Lego needs on the secondary market rather than buying clone
brands. That's a heavy observation--if people would rather spend a lot more
on the 2ndary market than buy from the competition, how much more willing
would they be to buy primary market LEGO direct from the source?!
I know that there may be logistical problems surrounding the production of
out-of-print sets, but there is an undeniable market for such sets, probably
every bit as strong as the Lego Sculpture market, and TLC has already taken
care of its overhead and design costs on vintage sets!
Dave!
