Last weekend I went to the K-Mart I rarely visit and scored a hovercraft (8824) and a planetary decoder (6856) The boxes were pretty worn, although the 6856 was still sealed and the 8824 had a seal that was open.

(...) The only time I ever pay full price for LEGO is when I order something through S@H that I know I cannot get anywhere else (or if I buy something that you can't get anymore from a private party).

When was the last time you bought a new set at regular price? When LEGO comes out with good stuff, do you think "I can't wait for the clearance sale!" -- but you wait, hoping to make a killing? Should LEGO pay attention to the AFOL market share when (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jan-01, to lugnet.market.shopping)
