  Re: Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
My mistake. I made the leap "T&C" = place where you forbid things. I'm glad I'm mistaken. However, I do think the default should be the other way... solicitations expected unless the poster states otherwise. It appears most people disagree; oh well. (...)

  Re: Cool Shell 1999 Promo sets now available in US
 
No, and I didn't find the Shell Customer Service to be all that helpful either, at least in Georgia. All the stores they mentioned acted dumbstruck when I called them on it. But I guess it saved me time from driving to them. I guess Georgia Shell's (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  The Sanburn Systems Company - Internet Connection Craziness - 25% Sale - Continued
 
To All, With the success of the 25% after Thanksgiving sale, and the fact that my internet connection has been off and on since Saturday, I have decided to extend the 25% percent off sale until this Sunday, December 3rd. So if you missed the first (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
 
  Re: Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
Hi, (...) Likewise. However, usually when posting about a sale or a clearance find I will specifically say whether or not I will buy things by proxy--and my mind is usually working on a basis of economics, although if I know someone (or if they've (...)

  Re: Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
(...) Todd isn't going to, though. He is just making a courteous note requesting people not to solicit unless they specify they are willing to [pick up sets or whatever]. -Shiri XFUT .admin.terms (but I hope there isn't too much discussion about (...)

  Re: Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
(...) I don't see how the Lugnet T&C could "forbid" this, in any event. If, for example, I saw Brad's post and persisted in pestering him about it, Todd wouldn't be the person he should contact. He should contact postmaster@thirteen.net (the entity (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Re: Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
(...) I would have to agree with you, for my two cents and being one of the newer members. Although, I have been guilty of direct e-Mail to a couple of posts, mostly to gain more information on their location or the idea of sharing 'finds' locally. (...)

  Re: Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
I am willing to post a "please no solicitation" note on future posts. I was not only concerned about myself, but about other people (especially new people) who might be put off by this, especially by some overly agressive folks. A lot of people are (...)

  Re: Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
(...) Brad, thanks for your previous informative posts! I can see why you wouldn't want solicitations, but I think it is reasonable for people to think that you might be willing to share your finds, unless you stated otherwise in your post. Might (...)

  Please don't solicit people that report sales
 
Hi, I've been hit a few times with people wanting me to pick up sets for deals I found specific to my geographic location. I really prefer not to get such emails and do not wish to do this, even for a significant finders fee. In a few situations, (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Cool Shell 1999 Promo sets now available in US
 
Almost all Shell stations have those little sets. The 125x (like 1254, 1255, 1256) sets are the hard ones to find (the ones that apparently only are being sold in CA). Has anyone else in the US seen these? doug mulvaney <douglasm@cisunix.unh.edu> (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: Cool Shell 1999 Promo sets now available in US
 
(...) I was able to pick up some of the shell sets in Massachussetts, off one of the exits on I-84. They did not even make me buy any gas. I got 2536, 2556, 2537, 2543, 2554, 2539, 2538, 2544, 2541, 2542, 2540. They had a lot of the little sets for (...) (24 years ago, 28-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

(...) Yah, I went out to Meijer on Fri eve (slept in in the morning) and got the last DDK they had but I paid only 29.98 :). Even better was the trip to the local Goodwill on the way back. They advertised "Huge Shipment of New Toys" and they toy (...) (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

  Re: (US only) Who didn't go door busting today?
 
(...) I decided I have way too many Lego sets around, so instead of buying more, I gave away $250 worth of Lego sets (I paid about 1/5 that amount, of course) to local charities. Didn't have to fight the shopping crowds, either. :-) Bruce (24 years ago, 27-Nov-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)
