(...) You got it! I believe the purpose of bulk ordering is to make it less expensive to obtain a specific element. That it does in every case. gray 2x4 bricks and black 2x4 medium slope bricks cost 34 cents each in service packs, 14 cents each vi (...)

I expect to pay LD a premium to buy just the parts I want and I don't really have a problem with it (although I thought the red 1x4x6 doors were a bit much at $2.00 a pop). I didn't order any basic bricks. About the only color basic bricks I can see (...) (24 years ago, 15-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral, lugnet.loc.us.nc)

I did the same sort of cost-analysis and only bought things that I can't get any other way. With discount and shipping, the black windows are .84 a pop, the blue thinwalls, 2x2 whites windows and trees are .30, and the tiles are .07. I decided not (...)

I visited the new bulk ordering section for Lego Shop at Home. What i don't get is their pricing -- it's all screwed up, not a good deal at all: For example, lets buy 1 of each, A. B. C. D. E. & F. of the standard bricks they are offering -- all the (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral, lugnet.loc.us.nc)

Unlike Frank, I'll probably put in an order today or tomorrow. I already have a $200 order figured out (mostly windows) so I won't need to combine orders to get the maximum discount. Good idea, though. Cary (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral)

(...) I don't see anything there that I'm dying for right now. I can see that I will probably be building a skyscraper at some point with black windows (or the blue ones), and I'm glad I didn't win the auction for white classic windows several (...)

As many of you know, bulk ordering is now a reality from lego. (URL) there any interest in putting one order together to get the discount and save on shipping? Jimmy (24 years ago, 14-Jun-00, to lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral)

A while back I reported receiving a fairly favorable response from the New Hope Vallley Railroad about setting up a LEGO train exhibit during one of their train runs (hoping for May 7th). Since then I have heard nothing and they have not responded (...) (25 years ago, 29-Apr-00, to lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.loc.us.nc, lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral, lugnet.loc.us.nc.dur)

I have checked two Shell stations for the sets (I-40 and Aviation Parkway near the Morrisville Outlet Mall) and at Hwy. 64 in Apex and had the same "I have no idea what you are talking about response" from both stores. Anyone seen them anywhere yet? (...) (25 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.loc.us.nc, lugnet.loc.us.nc.ral)
