All,

It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that I announce the new LEGO
Auctions! Check out the new area of the online LEGO Shop at
http://shop.LEGO.com/eBay.

We have literally just launched this live, and the first auction will be
....drum roll please.... Santa Fe Super Chief locomotive set #0001! OK, so
Brad announced this at BricksWest, but here's what he didn't mention:

- We will be auctioning Santa Fe Super Chief locomotive sets #0001-0010 over
the next few weeks, starting with #0001.

- Each of the #0001-0010 sets will include a glued display stand as an added
bonus. These stands look terrific, and are glued in two pieces, rather than
one, to help with shipping and future storage (assuming you ever want to
store it away!).

(Note: The Santa Fe Super Chief sets are still MISB)

OK, I will stop typing and let you go bid!

Good luck and have fun!

Looks intersting.  What other stuff are you going to auction?  And will it
always be one at a time?  The prices will probablly get pretty
outragous...(I'm twelve, so I can't afford high ebay prices!)  A 'buy it
now' should be offered too.

P.S Why do you have to glue some parts?

P.S.S. Any chance of old space sets?   :-)

I don't speak for LEGO, but I may be able to get close to the answers to some of your questions: (...) If this works out (which it certainly seems to be doing), as many one-of-a-kind sets as the market will bear, and that it is profitable for them (...) (22 years ago, 3-Apr-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)
