(...) The Emeryville TRU had a good selection last week during the BOGO50 sale, so i got a $29.95 set with a 9volt motor, figuring that $22.50 isn't too bad for a motor set.... Paul Sinasohn (24 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

The Sunnyvale TRU now has Znap. Two small sets, a $10 set, three different $20 sets, and a $30 set. Quantities were good. Too bad the BOGO50% is over. /Eric McC/ (24 years ago, 25-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Toy Go Round yields another find. #4560/4561 Railway Express, 99.9% complete for $92 and an X-wing, also 99% complete for $20. Not bad. Some fantastic parts for such a crappy train design.

I believe that since Henry has agreed to hold it again, he will have final say on the time we start. If he is agreeable to noon, that would also allow us to break relatively early for those who need to go. Henry, when you decide on the time, send an (...)
