Definitely the second letter, the first is just a "hey look at us , we're Lego
fans, would you like to play with us?" type of letter.
If they give good feedback then we can start giving them the juicy stuff. If
they give us bad feedback, we give them even more juicy stuff about how much
sales they stand to lose by not pleasing us ;-)
The first letter will mention however how we go about getting Lego, something
like this: "we are big fans of Lego who regularly keep an eye out both locally
and internationally for latest news, events and availability of Lego
sets/pieces".
I'm not sure if i should sepcifically say that we bypass LA's sales by
importing. Maybe thats for the second or third letter, we want to get things
off on the right foot.
