Well, guess what I found! A couple of weeks before Christmas I stopped by Arden
Fair mall in Sacramento at a store called Learningsmith which was going out of
business. I am not a Mindstorms person at all, but a Mindstorms 1.5 box was the
only Lego I could see in the whole store, so I took a look. Well it was opened and
gutted-- missing the RCX and all the pieces to make the Inventorbot. Turns out it
was a demo, and they sold the bot to someone (but not the rest of the stuff). So I
bought the box for a bargain price-- I took a picture of all the wheels and was
planning to put them on eBay, but I will sell them to you (and any of the other
wheels or tracks from the set if you would like) for a fair price. Since I am not a
Technics/Mindstorms person, I'm not sure what that would be.... If anyone can shed
light on what they would sell them for I would appreciate it.
I also have the CD, user guide, Constructopaedia, test pad and one touch sensor if
anyone is interested. If no one is, they will probably go on eBay when I get around
to it (I am mags912).
