Well it sucks!  At least in Canada, where a "3.99 US" set has $4.50 US
shipping.  And they the want our taxes in US$.....  Now I never use S@H, even
though I would use it every month if not for the misleading and unreasonable
princing changes.

So you think it makes more sense for Lego to charge $8.49 for that set?

No, but they used to get by charging about $4.50.  Shipping charges didn't used
to be huge on the little sets.





I agree with the people who think lego should keep Jack Stone as a DUplo set
or something on that order, and still have a town or city theme for older
people, say from ages 10-up. they shouldnt kill the popular town theme for a
newer theme that appeals just to kids. why not make more themes that appeal
for teenagers and AFOLs on the side? joe
