I get quite a few odd requests for info on buying and selling old sets via
email sent to questions@auczilla.com and pause@lugnet.com, and when I write
back suggesting that they ask around in rec.toys.lego, most of the people
write back saying they'd never heard of RTL.  So extrapolating, etc.,
and that's how I get the guesstimate of 100-200 UK'ers, once this becomes
more widely publicized and given a bit of time.

It's just a guess of course and I could be wrong, but it's what my gut
tells me...
