| My Lego is being held hostage! I thought I'd share this, I'm not looking for sympathy. This is a rather bizarre story which, I'm sure, will end well. It involves 3 AFOLS: Mr A Mr B Myself I did a trade with both A & B for a large amount of Lego. (...) (25 years ago, 13-Mar-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
