Hello, Is there anyone who will be at the next BayLUG meeting (Sat Feb 8, 2003) who wants some of the 6322 road plates? These are the straight plates that have recently sold out of Shop at Home. I found a source of them. They are $6 or $7 plus tax. (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

Hey all, I e-mailed Melissa about being profiled for the "Ultimate Collectors" show and she called me! We set up a phone interview which, I think, went very well. She's now writing a pitch for her bosses and if they like it, they'll fly a camera (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jan-03, to lugnet.org.us.baylug, lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

(...) That's the Mindstorms set I bought. I guess it looked so bad it scared most people away. For those who didn't see it, the cover flap was totally ripped away and parts were jumbled inside. But I checked and all of the sensors and both motors (...) (22 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

There was a Lego Mindstorms set pretty mangled and a Lego IR controlled race car which was opened. Both appeared to (...) (22 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)

ALso picked up the last 4534 at 50% at the San Leandro Target, which had no rolling stock to speak of. Hoping for another 4534 (at 75%).... Paul (...)

Thanks for the heads up. Everyone please mention stores that hit 75% off IF you don't wipe them out - I'm still looking for some log cars at 75% off, but I'm not driving to NAPA for them ;-) Make sure you mention exactly WHICH store, including the (...)

You just need to check every local target. I hit 4 yesterday, and all had switched to 50% off on the MOT sets. I was nice and only bought ONE of the large train set, leaving some for others. I can't say that for the caboose, though ;-) Odds are your (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jan-03, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
