OK, I see.

Fair warning to all, though. Stop planning on my heavy participation. I
am cutting back. I've reached saturation. In just about every category,
I have enough pieces to build a great many different things. Sure, there
are rare pieces I want more of, but for pieces in bulk, I am flush.(1)

Same for sets. There are a few sets I would get more of but I have got
at least one of just about every set made in recent times that I have
any interest in, and in many cases, more than one. (2)

I'll continue to buy new sets, of course. :-) I can hardly wait for Star
Wars and Space Port to be readily available and discounted.

1 - well, I could use more windows, and more slopes, especially
corners... but I have a fair bunch of those too.

2 - And I guess there is a chance I'll get the space bug harder, and try
to become Space Complete but that seems unlikely. Might go for M:tron
complete though, I am almost there.

(...) Oh, I don't count on you at all anymore. In fact, I didn't mean to imply that the market (or sellers anyway) DEPENDS on you. I just think you did a lot to "prime the pump" as you put it. It seems to have taken off pretty well. (26 years ago, 18-Dec-98, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) Waittaminut. Aren't you the one who once said 'M:tron is goofy'? One of these days, I'm going to save up the money for a Multi-Core Magnetizer. Or maybe a Mega-Core Magnetizer. I'll bet those are bigger. Steve (26 years ago, 18-Dec-98, to lugnet.market.auction)

(...) If a seller does not have the reasonable expectation that they will make enough from their auctions to be worth running the auction, then they will not run them.
