    WTB/WTT: Blue 3x3 corner low-slopes from 3053 Emperor's Stronghold —Lindsay Frederick Braun
    Hi b-s-t folks, The subject says it all. I'd just buy four 3053s and part them out to keep the blue low-slopes, but I have too many sets waiting in the "outbox" already (I'm just now getting to my January haul). I will pay $1.75 per slope, and I (...) (24 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

   (...) Linsday, are your trade quantities here the right way round? Red low slope corners are way more easily available in quantity (read: Dacta low slope roof bricks pack) than eitehr blue or black. Kevin (24 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

   Yeah, 3x3 low black corners are pretty darn rare - Twisted Time Train has 2, 6598 has 2, not sure what other sets. But the Dacta roof pack has tons in red. I'll trade red for black if someone wants to give up their black ;-) (...) -- | Tom Stangl, (...) (24 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
   
        Re: WTB/WTT: Blue 3x3 corner low-slopes from 3053 Emperor's Stronghold —Lindsay Frederick Braun
      (...) Sorry, for some reason the DACTA availability just didn't cross my radar screen. D'oh! I got my red ones in sets, so I was going with that value. So I guess I'll just hang on to my low-slopes--but I do have a lot of other things to trade for (...) (24 years ago, 8-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

      (...) Ah yes, the low sloped corner bricks, highly desireable in any color, rare in black, scarce in red and blue, and very very rare in yellow. Only came in one set in yellow that I am aware of. That would be the 7740 Intercity Train (1980's), (...) (24 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

      The white low corner slopes comes in the Mindstorms Droid Development kit 9748 which has 4 of them. The R2-D2 contest at Target uses something like 28 of them for the feet.

        (...) Thanks Steve. Now we know they exist in white. And 9748 costs...... $100 (ouch). Looks like the white 3x3 corners will be very much like the yellow 3x3 corners (from the 7740 Intercity Train) ... namely that they can only be found in very (...)
