We sort of know the owner, as she teaches at Nik and Taya's school. I
told her I was glad to see her carrying LEGO, asked her about pricing.
She claimed that her prices were lower than retail in some cases and
that she would have some specials. I did not dispute the point at the
time.
I told her I'd like to see her carry the Trains line, and that if she
did, I would buy one of every thing in the current Trains line from her
as a show of support.
We'll see. We've spent over 150 there already, mostly on SanRio stuff.
They have a number of the DK books including both the new StarWars ones.
Gotta support small retailers that carry LEGO when we can.
