What?
You mean like I wouldnt have dreamt of e-commerce?
Or they they would sell bulk bricks, which I could have done 40 years ago?
Or that they might sell trains, which I have always been able to do?
Or find some old accessory packs that I could have bought 2 years ago
without any fuss?
Or that Lego has all but disappeared from UK stores and now I have to buy it
at high price (without any competition) from LD, and pay shipping too?
Or that they would sell certain sets only via LD forcing me to pay shipping?
What is incredibly cool about that?
Nothing wrong with LD, but incredibly cool? Give us a break.
