Not sure I understand this logic. Why will lego say because they have moved to
slough there will be a market for trains in the UK?
The market doesnt happen because lego moved.
Neither does the fact that lego moved suddenly make them want to sell trains
in the UK.
Or does it? Nice if they did!

And why is the toy market controlled by TRU and Argos? Suppose they do have
the overall volume in the UK, but round my way, the Entertainer is always
seems way busier than TRU.
And why would Lego set up S@H because TRU and Argos control the toy market?
Because they have no option but to do it direct if TRU and Argos wont sell
their products, or because their is no competition, or because TRU and Argos
woudnt object, or because all the other toy shops no longer matter?

either way, again I would be glad if they did.
just trying to understand your reasoning.

lawrence
