(...) This isn't such a remote possibility. My brother had a sealed 7824 shipped to the US from the Netherlands and customs slaughtered the box. Hopefully whatever shipping/insurance arrangements were made took this into account. Steve (23 years ago, 23-Mar-01, to lugnet.market.auction)

Hello everyone. This 1593 deal pretty much fascinated me. I guess it's safe to consider this set to be the rarest set out there? I have NEVER heard of a Lego going for so much money before.

First let me say, Thanks! I don't think many of us here at lugnet like to brag (too much!) about the stuff we have.
