Hello everyone

Happy Australia/Invasion day!  (delete as appropriate)

This is one for those who purchase lots of unsorted used Lego...

***What is the most common piece type that you find with teeth marks? (as in
plate, brick, etc)

***Have you ever had a piece with teeth marks where you can't work out how
they got the teeth marks to be where they are?

(I just found a  boat part that had teeth marks - I reckon this kid must
have a *huge* mouth to get the marks where they did!)

***Ever been given a large quantity of used Lego only to find a large
portion of it is covered in teeth marks and, thereby, mostly unusable?

<sigh> I knew there was a reason I was putting off sorting through my used
lots of Lego :)

Hi Sue, I have bought used LEGO from Germany (and other places) off ebay
sometime ago, and a lot of it was in a not-so-good shape.  Teeth marks,
discolouration and scratches etc... But since I am moving overseas later this
year, I decided to go through all my LEGO and do something with it, I am looking
at donating it to children less fortunate, maybe here or overseas where they may
appreciate it, not matter what condition it is in (some are just discoloured)
and see if they might want to use it (this also helps me with take slightly less
LEGO with me when I move which is good too).  I know it's not as nice as the new
stuff, but some kids in those situations are not fussy! So if anyone wants to
help donate any of their unloved and unwanted LEGO email me and we can talk
about where to send it.

Many thanks...
