  Re: Gotta clear my conscience...
 
(...) Well, I only bought 20 when I called the other morning, partly because I took a closer look at the set and didn't see enough in it to make me want more and partly because I know the market will be flooded with them so I won't be able to sell (...)

  Re: Gotta clear my conscience...
 
(...) I absolve you my child :~) ... ...if you give me a phone number or some kind of contact info! Are they on the net, or did you go in to the store? Tell me, TELL ME NOW - before someone gets hurt!! Sorry, lost control there for a second. Whew! (...) (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Lugnet.U.S.A. Are you ready to RUMBLE ?
 
Excuse my delay in posting this message, I just wanted to have a chance to get my order filled, unlike the WB store fiasco...Apparently the reason why Lego S@H Canada was taken over by S@H US is because they weren't moving product...Lego S@H US has (...)

  Re: Gotta clear my conscience...
 
(...) I (fortunately) haven't met anyone like that here. I personally think that sort of behavior is despicable. Buying a set and selling it for a profit is one thing, but creating an artificial shortage so your prices go through the roof is (...) (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Gotta clear my conscience...
 
(...) I won't judge anyone one way or another - but anyhow, it is pretty depressing to know that someone bought about 50 copies of one set while you just wanted 1 or 2... (...) I agree, but there are many deep-pocketed people (who aren't (...) (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Gotta clear my conscience...
 
(...) I think that most of the 'deep pockets' here on LUGNET would be buying them for their personal use, not for their auction resale value. Larry P - one of those deep pocketed AFOLs - is adamantly anti-scalping, and he's butted heads with the (...) (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Gotta clear my conscience...
 
(...) heehee yea Shiri .. ya gotta be careful, those "deep pockets " out there will clean out the lots and then jack up the prices via EBAY....it's tuff on the "thin wallets' that barely know what Wolf Pack is, much less afford the EBAY excessive (...)

  Re: Outlet store in VA has Enchanted Island
 
(...) GMLTC has several dozen of these, and the corresponding 1/4 circle piece, and that's what they do, sandwich two of them together with the 1/4 circle pieces in different corners. These are great to make the center of a module lighter. (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Gotta clear my conscience...
 
Hi Castlovers, Now that 3 WP renegades are on their way to my house, I hafta clear my conscience: The VA outlet has 6038s. Still does. HTH, -Shiri p.s. I kept this a secret for fear that someone will buy them out before I buy my few... sorry! (25 years ago, 15-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.market.shopping)

  Re: Outlet store in VA has Enchanted Island
 
(...) Do you envision any problems using those weird baseplates with the round notch bit out of them? They are hard to use as multiples if you want to hook them together flush in some sort of interlocking L's pattern. Will (25 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Lego S@H 4525 Last Ones??
 
I just got off the phone with Lego S@H. I ordered a couple of the 4525s. She said that after this bunch is gone there will be no more made(stocked?). If this is true, get them while they last. Dan (25 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: One last chance to get 8480...
 
(...) Zlatko, This really doesn't belong in .market.shopping -- unless these really have something to do with shopping: for example if you are a retailer or if these are sets that you don't yet own but are sitting on the shelf at some store (in (...)

Ray Sanders wrote in message <38A7C416.C15AFC0@svic.net>... (...) I have one more scenario to add. A Fred Meyer's manager told me that if a Lego set doesn't sell at 50% he donates it to charity.

  Re: Partial List of Georgia Lego Outlet Inventory and prices
 
(...) According to Technica (see (URL)), this set has *green* cross-axles (I wouldn't know, my only copy is hidden away, waiting for my son's birthday). Those axles would more reason to nab this set. Steve (25 years ago, 14-Feb-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: End of Clearance Stock?
 
(...) This DOES happen, and if it does and you're not there on the day it happens you miss out. I know this because I've been lucky enough to happen upon those random sidewalk sales or huge markdowns just as they started (or right after) and clear (...)
