While this policy may cost TLC in one way ie. Less total units sold.
They gain in another. ie.there is no discounting so they always get maximum
profit on the units. Not to mention no middle man...
While I agree these items should be in stores, especially the ones in colour
boxes like the Blacksmith shop (1), I understand why they are not..
(1) Just imagine how well the Blacksmith Shop would sell out of a retail
outlet, I doubt they could meet demand.

My concern is that their best products aren't available in stores! WHY WHY WHY??? Who benefits from this policy? (...) (23 years ago, 16-Mar-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)
