But, if that is the case, why say 1) this will be available form S@H until
the e-commerce section is up, and then say 2) This service will be available
in the US, and later in Europe. To me this says that when the e-commerce
section is up, this will be available to the US and europe, and nowhere
else. [Further, I could see no reference to this service expanding outside
these constraints in the posting !]

(...) Ben, You really need to get to the bottom of this problem where your posts start a new thread and don't tag onto the original thread. It makes it really hard to follow! Pete Callaway (26 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) AFAIK: it says that it will initially be available in the US via s@h and in europe through a toll free number, then there will be an ecommerse site (for parts and sets as well I assume) that will be available all over the world. (26 years ago, 17-Apr-00, to lugnet.lego.direct)
