   Todd, was that the set that finally completed your Space collection?  I
remember, not too long ago, seeing a picture of you, elated to be complete -
but I can't recall if that set was 918 or 6807?  Do you count boxes as part of
being complete?  It was a lot easier for me, as I only wanted (things change,
don't they) the first 3 years of Space sets, of which 14 and 918 were easily
the toughest.  As a person who spent/traded a similar amount on rare sealed
(and even opened) sets a year or two ago, then found more coming out of little
nooks around the globe, I think I know how you feel - to me, its not
disappointing!  It gives me hope that the others on my list will finally turn
up!  Thanks to globalization of the Lego hobby (i.e., Lugnet!), now you could
afford another one - they are a bargain nowadays!  If people knew how much
less I paid for my second 1592 compared to my first, they would realize it was
a smart move, as this abundance (in my (1592) case 4 sold in one year! in this
case (6807) 3 that I know of in 2 years = abundance) of good sets is going to
die eventually (quickly, I'd guess) and then getting tough sets will be truly
expensive.


Have fun, John

PS, for those looking for me, I am not able to receive mail at my usual
ig888... addresses until Sunday probably - when I will have lots of email
catch up to do.  I am using this IE5 browser to post for now, and its fun to
be doing so again, but I can't get my mail here.  My email addresses are
working however, and any mail received will be answered by approximately
Monday.

(...) That was 918... (...) Oh yes. :) Lots of good fun art on so many of the boxes...like a whole 'nother idea book. --Todd (25 years ago, 10-Dec-99, to lugnet.market.auction)
