(...) No, they shouldn't feel that way. They should feel silly. I have been offered 6067 for approx. $65 USD and still refused it -- it just wasn't worth it to me. I will gladly buy several Guarded Inns for $25 a pop. Anyone paying really crazy (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) And I don't feel bad about having paid $3 each for Guarded Inn walls. I probably would still consider paying that much (but don't worry, I'll be lining up a decent order of these tomorrow, I've been plotting how to do something with the 4 sets (...)

Heck, the set really doesn't impress me much. I DO like the Tudor walls, and would love to be able to buy the straight and corner ones separately in bulk, so I could build decent-sized buildings. I DO like the hanging sign. I LOVE the blue chalice (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

Argh! It's showing on the site now, but I can't backorder it! I know, I know, it's only a matter of time, they obviously use several different databases for the shopping experience. But I was ready to get some sleep, dangit! (...) -- Tom Stangl (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

I too am happy about the Legends series. It is great that LD is making so many people happy. But I still want expanded Bulk Orders. Some clear bricks and 2x2 windows (blue, yellow) would be nice, as well as some macaroni bricks in many colors. Ditto (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Great idea -- why not leverage the production costs for the wall pieces by producing a US$5 "Inn Expansion Set": 2 tudor straight walls, 2 Tudor corner walls, and some black slopes and bricks? --DaveL (23 years ago, 10-Jun-01, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.market.theory)

Nah, that doesn't make sense. What WOULD make sense is ONE corner wall and 2-4 straight walls. Otherwise, you'd only be building skinny towers over time, to use up all the excess corners.

One way you can get a higher ratio of corners would be to buy more Guarded Inn sets (may not be terribly practical depending on your ability to (...)
