Sure, add me. (...) do (...) That would be nice...even if all it was was say a 400 piece bucket in one of the older (square) buckets at $25-30. (even if it had 200 connector pegs and 2 long black axles...) I have a skad of the giant robot sets, (...) (25 years ago, 20-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)
 
  Re: 2000 Technic
 
(...) Out of the stack of 10 in that first case though I only got two, so there's gotta be someone with a bigger pile o' yellow beams than me! Mailing list -- there's a mailing list? There's enough EAFOL's to make a _list_?? :) Sure, add me. Back to (...) (25 years ago, 20-Nov-99, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)
 
  Re: 2000 Technic
 
(...) <snip> (...) AH HAH! You're the culprit. Well, one of them at least. You and the little old lady. ;-) I found one of these (the last one) at Walmart in Sherwood Park last week. I did a circuit of some other Walmarts (West, South, Londonderry, (...) (25 years ago, 20-Nov-99, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.loc.ca.ab.edm)
 
  Re: R2D2 spottings?
 
(...) Do they have the Bay department store in NS? Bay has them... sometimes you can get 15-20% off too! Bryan (25 years ago, 13-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: R2D2 spottings?
 
(...) Saw one in the local TRU this week. Can't say as I'm particularly whelmed by this set. James (URL) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  RE: R2D2 spottings?
 
I picked one up a couple of weeks ago at Toys'R US. I've seen them at several TRU's in the Vancouver (British Columbia) area. (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: R2D2 spottings?
 
(...) If you're talking about the Droid Developers Kit, they are ALL over the place down here in the states. I go to the toy store a lot and wouldn't mind sending you one, for good karma purposes- I may want someone in another country to send me (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)

  R2D2 spottings?
 
Has anybody seen this Robotic set in Canada? I ordered one from S@H for my own Christmas Present after not being able to find one in NS. Guess what! Backordered. Thanks for any info. John Battcock (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: FOTW!
 
(...) They've gone down again then! They were 19.99 at the Lougheed Mall Wal-Mart (Burnaby, near Vancouver) last week - but only there, haven't seen them at any others. I have been sending my Technic class kids down there to get themselves some <g>. (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  FOTW!
 
I got a 8277 Giant Model Set for $18.97 (CAD) at my local Walmart last night. bounced through a few more Walmarts today, but didn't see any more of the 8277s. But Walmart Canada tends to do sales across the board, so you might want to check your (...) (25 years ago, 12-Nov-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: shop at home news
 
(...) Hehehe! Up to this week I would have agreed with you, but my most recent order was amazing - they had EVERYTHING in stock and it arrived in under a week. Kevin (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: shop at home news
 
(...) prices in US dollars? And then tax/import on top of that? (...) Hmm, I never checked the Lego Direct flyers, so you might be right. I know our store prices are a few points lower, even after currency conversion, so I assumed S@H reflected (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)

Kevin Wilson <70641.507@compuserve.com> wrote in message (...) As I see it, every order that I ever made was backordered my guess is I will probably see things sooner!!! John Battcock (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: Halloween Candy - $5 lego coupon for 19c
 
It was posted here about the "Karnival Pops" cany for about $2 with a $5 Lego coupon in the package. Our local Zellers is trying desperately to get rid of these and they are now at 90% off, so you get them for 19c each! I just bought 10 packages, (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: shop at home news
 
(...) Well, it always seemed to me that Canadian S@H prices were a direct equivalent of US S@H prices, comparing them on the Lego Direct flyers that came in sets. So I don't see any difference there. There's no actual *import duty* on toys, so that (...) (25 years ago, 10-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: shop at home news
 
(...) Yup, I noticed that too. Did anyone else notice that we're now paying US prices in US dollars? And then tax/import on top of that? Unless, of course, nous parlons Francais... time to brush up on my second language skills. James (URL) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: shop at home news
 
(...) Yeah, I noticed this order form too and I'm quite relieved - if Lego collects the GST then at least we don't have to get hit with a Canada Post $5 fee every time a package arrives from S@H. I don't nderstand why you guys out east get whacked (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.loc.ca)
