This just occurred me. I'm trying to imagine him at the Canadian border
crossing.
"What's in the truck?"
"Old Lego."
(Customs officer has a look)
"Lego, yep. Worth how much?"
"$47,000 US" (or however much it ends up being)
(Officer has heart attack. Deputy searches in vain for 5-digit forms for used
toys.)
Boggles the mind. The amount of GST/PST paid by the buyer would be truly
awful. Not that that's the only reason I'm not bidding :-) Hopefully the
winner will tell us the story once the deal is done.
Cheers, Heather

| Seller states that there really is over 2000 lb of Lego. He will rent a U-Haul and deliver in USA or Canada. Search 'Lego Collection:'item 553020871. Current bid was over $3000 but he wants probably 20x that! Let me know what you think! (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.general) !!
