    Rare? SW sets FSOT —Jason Lubken
   I'm not exactly sure how rare the new SW sets are, (judging by e-bay, this is crazy) but there are 12+ hiding on the top shelf at my local WalMart (All but the Y-Wing + Tie Advanced set last I checked.) So if anyone is interested, I'll sell them (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
   
        Re: Rare? SW sets FSOT —Larry Pieniazek
    (...) Ebay notwithstanding, this "rarity" is just about over. They're appearing all over the place now, so this is only a good deal if you have just absolutely come up dry locally, you have to have the sets NOW, and are willing to pay a premium for (...)

        Re: Rare? SW sets FSOT —Mike Stanley
   (...) Yep. I checked a Target, Kohl's, and TRU today - nothing. They'll be here soon enough though. Not that I'll pay full price for them. I'll wait for them to go on at least a 20% off sale. Picked up 6 3053's and a handfull of Adventurer polybags (...) (25 years ago, 14-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
   
        Re: Rare? SW sets FSOT —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) My prediction is that unless we get lucky, it's going to be a while before even a 20% sale comes to pass at any kind of well run establishment. I saw the TLG Starwars ad TWICE on Nickelodeon this morning, just in 1 hour. Nice ad. Should boost (...) (25 years ago, 15-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.starwars)
    
         Re: Rare? SW sets FSOT —Mike Stanley
      (...) Rachael and I were standing in TRU tonight after looking and not finding any SW sets, basically debating on getting an armload of Weapons Wagons for $4.97 (we passed - not enough in there to make it worth it to me) when 3 young boys came over (...)

      (...) Well now, that wouldn't do those of us AT the park much good, would it? ;-) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.starwars)
     
          Re: Rare? SW sets FSOT —Julie Krenz
       (...) Ow, rub it in why dontcha? I don't see us at the park until the summer of 2000. My littlest will be 3 then, still a handful at that age, but manageable enough for me to enjoy myself. I'll be thinking of you all, I want to see lots of (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.starwars)

       removed market.bst from the groups list... (...) This was our first year, so these are short term impressions. OM has a lot of structure.

        Re: Rare? SW sets FSOT —Mike Stanley
   (...) No, I mean I won't pay full price for them. I'll buy up quite a few at 20% because I know that I can make my money back and more on the parts I don't want while getting the parts I do want paid for by the rest. If you're implying that SW Lego (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-99, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
