It’s not very fair that the people with less transport options will end up
missing out - not everyone can traipse across town looking for these things,
especially if their budget could only stretch as far as a discount BFF in
the first place. I feel lucky I’m not one of them in this situation.

I agree. I suspect that when Myer/GB sells BFFs at $30ea, they are not
looking to make a (huge) profit, and although they do make some restrictions
on quantities available on a case by case basis (pun intended), I’m surprised
they don’t formalise a limit.

It’s probably more an LA kickback scenario for Myer/GBs.
Do formalised limits appear much in the retail world anymore? I seem to remember
limits on supermarket items many years ago, but now...

However, I think the BFF fits nicely into the category of sets that it would
be good to have 100 of (for your own use, not for parting out. I bought two,
definitely for my own use!). There’s just no waste in it: no raised
baseplate, no one piece doors, no one piece cranelations, no kings, no
queens, and so on... so maybe the sets were cleared out by a few people
looking at making some very large castles?

Somewhere in Legoland...
Lego Police Officer 1 : “Have you checked the boot ?”
Lego Police Officer 2 : “He only has 2 BFFs in his possession and he states
they are for his personal use, still sealed though.”
Lego Police Officer 1 : “Let’s take him in for questioning. The breathaliser
came up positive for ABS outgas.”
Kev Hall would have appreciated this deal :^)
