Busy Bee in the UK is probably the best source but shipping a starter set
back to the US (if they have any) might be expensive. If you haven't see
one of these, the box is about the size of a large pizza box and for the
most part is empty. It has to be that large to hold the two baseplates
(48x48). If you have a large grey baseplate (or have seen one) that is how
big the box is and is about two and a half inches tall. I think the new
Y2K soccer (futbol) sets will complement the original set nicely.
Price for the starter sets varies widely. After not receiving any serious
trade offers I sold two on eBay. One went for $150, the other for $85.
Matt Chiles still has some available from the Vault I think. I would guess
that if you found one in Europe and shipped it back to the US it would run
about $40-$50 based on the original price of about $25 (£16) and the large
size of the box.
