Check out this auction:
http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1643512573
The kicker to me is when the seller wrote:
"I contacted a local Toys R Us and they WOULD NOT SELL it to me, because the
item had been PULLED OFF THE SHELVES!"
I've been to 4 TRUs this past week, including one two hours ago and they all
had at least 5-12 of these sets on the shelf. Has anyone ever seen TRU
taking this set off the shelves?

| (...) Not really offensive, but laughable... Anyway, has this set been recalled on the US alone, or everywhere? I ask 'cause I've seen a couple at one of the local TrU... (Boy, is this set ugly!) Pedro (23 years ago, 2-Oct-01, to lugnet.market.auction)

| (...) I found that auction to be quite amusing. I'll give the seller full points for marketing the item well. :) I bet the seller doesn't even know what *exactly* prompted the recall of 6776... (I can get that set for CDN$69.99 here) -Bryan (23 years ago, 3-Oct-01, to lugnet.market.auction)
