(...) Probably old news by now, but... I found the new x-Pod sets today at the TRU in Gainesville, FL (although the stockers had hidden them behind the valences over the LEGO section :/ ). TRU is selling them for $3.99. Ray (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) It looks like the current strategy is to open year-round stores with Pick-A-Brick in a few places rather than have kiosks in a lot of places. Yeah, it sucks for people in areas without a LEGO store, but maybe you'll get one next year. (20 years ago, 16-Dec-04, to lugnet.market.shopping)

S@H is to expensive in Australia. I prefer to buy from EBAY in the US and pay the additional $30USD shipping. When you add $40 AUD to the price of a purchase and it's still cheaper than S@H, you soon learn not to bother. (20 years ago, 13-Dec-04, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.dear-lego)
