|
| (...) No, I can't. If I had meant eBay sellers in general (I belong to that group, and you do too, I think) I would have said eBay sellers. I meant (and still do) eBay scalpers. I'd say after last night it is painfully obvious that a very LARGE (...) (25 years ago, 4-May-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| (...) You know, I get tired of seeing eBay sellers generally referred to as scalpers. Can't you just say eBay sellers? From what I've seen, very few buckets are sold whole (the obvious exceptions being the halloween bucket and occasional silver (...) (25 years ago, 3-May-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
| | | | | Re: eToys the cheapest way to buy Lego?
|
| (...) Well, the cheapest seems to be Wal-Mart, in many cases. They often sell a few percent below retail, essentially covering the sales tax and there's no shipping. Still, for convenience, eToys is quite nice and I use it on occasion. I just (...) (25 years ago, 3-May-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

|
| I might post a larger report of the TRU down the hill from me tomorrow after I wake up, but here are some quick thoughts. Saw ONE person out of the horde (150+?) that was crowding the front of the store who seemed to only be interested in Lego (...) (25 years ago, 3-May-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| (...) I don't see how they could have realized that, considering the fact that it simply can't be true. No matter how many buckets or piles of bricks you see for sale on eBay, RTL, here, wherever, I would be willing to be huge sums of money that the (...)

I've saw at least 20 on the shelf at Wal-mart today (some in the garden (...) (25 years ago, 1-May-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)

|
| (...) Wow! So was 3033 for sale at 25% off then? 3033 is one of the sets that was supposedly cancelled, according to my sources -- it was 1200 pieces for $19.99 according to LEGO S@H. I know it was released to Wal*Mart for a special promotion, but (...) (25 years ago, 1-May-99, to lugnet.market.shopping)
