Hi guys, I was wondering if a kind-hearted World Club member could do me a favour? I rang LA and asked if they could process my membership in time for me to get one of those nifty <set:6493 Flybos> on sale for $30 -- I'm starting to like the idea of (...)

Kev...: ) wrote in message ... (...) Do you think it would be cheaper to grab one here for $60 from a toyshop? I've seen a half-dozen in Melbourne at least, mostly around $60-$70, if Ben and I keep an eye out we'll probably even find you one for (...) (24 years ago, 31-Oct-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

(...) There are a few in Sydney around the same price. They were snapped up quickly 3 months ago at Erina Toyworld where they were $29.99. Lego at a decent price walks out the door. Like the soccer sets, price it reasonably and it sells ten times (...) (24 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

(...) For a flybo, (battered box) check out GB Macq. 80ish less 20%. James (who's busy designing train layouts. Hey, I can dream can't I?) P.S. Anyone wanna swap their 9v for my 12v, piece for piece? (24 years ago, 1-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

(...) I think the 1200 bucket is exceptional even by N American standards though: people have compared the price per piece in the S@H bulk packs quite unfavourably with those buckets (except for the colour and piece range obviously). --DaveL (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

(...) Assuming we just get the Euro selection, it's strange that Europe doesn't get a rectangular bulk bucket. They make them for Duplo, so why not for basic. Do the residents of the US use that many more basic bricks. Or is it a matter of pricing (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

Dave have you arranged to get one of these Flybo sets yet? I still have a spare sheet as both I and my son are in the Lego club, I could get you one, but I will have to write my sons membership number on there and we can have it sent to you, can (...)
