I need some quick opinions, is it worth my while to get a Railway Express
<set:4561> for $80- Canadian or ~$54- US. I need to decide in the next two
hours. BTW, it is MISB. Also I already own a train and lots of track.


Jude, would this answer your question:  you make me sick you
lucky bugger!   :]

YES!  Buy it!  Best I found here in Windsor were 4561s at
TRU during their last 20% off sale.  It came to $128 before
taxes.  Best prices I've seen (on-line) in the US are sales
at around US$100 = Cdn$150.  So 80 bux is an awesome deal.

If you don't mind my asking, are you scoring that at a Zellers?
I was hoping to find one there on clearance, but no luck here
local...  <sniff>

Kyle,

You guessed right, it was at Zellers, but a "Special Zellers". The one at
Sparks St and O'Connor here in Ottawa. I do not understand the way they do
clearence sales there but let's just say they are Special.:-) The set was
marked down to $99.99 then another 30% off because it was a clearence toy item.
:-)

They also have a Cargo Railway <set:4559> in stock but it is not marked down,
it is just 15% off the $149.99 price tag. Weird, eh?

There still is another 4561 in stock, but alas I have broken my budget already
so one will have to do. Darn!

As a side note, I saw *NEW* Race sets marked as clearence in other stores in
the city. I think there are "special" staff around this city now.

The secret is out and the race is now on. If anyone gets the set as a result of
this post please let me know.

Jude

Choo, Choo!!!!
