That's the strange thing...They continually blame Denmark and shipping for
everything from low stock to delayed arrival. You'd think they'd have
learn't by now how long it takes to get items here, and if they can't get
that right, then the least they could do is put a manufacturing plant in
somewhere in the Australia/asia area. Then, maybe we'd be able to get some
exclusive sets, and a good range at a reasonable price, not to mention sets
released at a comperable time to the rest of the world.

| (...) Yeah, a lego china or something, wages are low, therefore that drives the cost down (we would hope) (25 years ago, 1-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au)
