| | | Hans, (...) What's wrong with making money? IMO, there is nothing wrong with buying anything for any reason. If I buy extra food for the winter, store it, and don't use it, and then maybe sell it at a higher price, is that wrong? If you have the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

I sold 7 copies of _the same set_ for around the same amout to 4 other individuals, and just covered my costs (got something in trade, which (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)

It was on a separate understanding (not trying to be rude, but I couldn't cover more than $1500 on my credit card...the US money stays as US money for me to pay for more lego (...)

In fact, my NEED for them hinted to him that maybe he should buy a few extra for himself ;-) Of course, I'm only selling 2. I MAY sell 2 more, I may not, I am (...)

A big "ditto" from me here--for example, I bought about 14 Sith Infiltrators on clearance, and I've parted four out and auctioned most of the pieces off--which provided enough to pay for the other ten!
