thanks! I'll check some of those places out. i hate to offend any natives
here, but the whole town reminds me of a suburb that doesn't have a city to
belong to. I did find both TRUs, and I bought the big Space Shuttle technic
set from a few years ago at one of them for $32!! The box was crunched and cut
up and hiding on top of the shelf, but complete inside. There was about 5
generations of price tags going up to $149.99. is this the original price,
does anyone know?
