How about voting on all parts which are not commonly available that are
required to build highly sought after classic sets like the 6067 Guarded Inn,
375 yellow castle, Galaxy Explorer or the Metroliner.
We have the instructions so we know what parts we need to build it.
Couple people could get together and each buy 100 (or the minimum quantity
required) of a certain part needed to build 100 guarded inns or yellow
castles. Then everybody would send all the parts to a middle person who will
use them to build the sets and sell them back to people who want them for far
below current auction prices. Instructions could be done in Ldraw or
downloaded from Brickshelf.
