  Is availability of Bulk Bricks listed incorrectly ?
 
Hello All, Shop at Home has rearranged the menu tree of it's website recently. To find items quickly it's a big improvement.

  Re: Euro: one currency does not mean one price :-(
 
(...) The 129EUR is approximately the price in shops here (800FF). 88EUR seems very cheap, maybe I should order before they spot their mistake?
