Some kindly advice!

When I post a Lego sale message on LUGNET, and someone emails me asking me
to buy something for them, they get a firm NO! I am usually not happy about
this and it keeps me from posting about Lego finds. Which is one reason I
did not post to this group for many, many months.

However, I have been known to purchase Lego for people, at cost, when
someone posts a kind request asking someone to purchase such set for them.
These kind of posts will get you closer to your goal of obtaining this set.

Unfortunately, I do not have a Sam's club within 300 miles of me.

Someone did post information on this sale at Sam's Club the day after
Thanksgiving.  I tried to find the set in the Washington, DC area with no
luck.  I also sent an e-mail to the person that posted the message to see • if
he was willing to purchase the set and ship it to me.  No such luck on
either account.  I was even willing to pay a reasonable fee for the • service.

Makes me wonder why Lego doesn't overwrap the sets like this for everyone

I didn't see a posting on this, but I could have missed one as I • haven't
been
regularly reviewing.  However, Sam's Club in both Harrisburg, PA and
Fishkill, NY have stocked about 30-40 Railway express sets at $67.
The added bonus is they are plastic wrapped (and sealed inside as • usual).
The additional plastic covering seems to have prevented the "bad seeds" • from
opening packages and stealing parts - leaving the remainder of the sets • to
sit
on the shelves as so often happens.  Or they just haven't yet been • discovered
by them.  Happy Shopping for the Holidays!

(...) I don't understand that. Anyone want me to buy anything for them, I'll happily do it, but I would ask for 10% of the purchase price or so for my trouble, plus shipping cost, and paid all in advance to my PayPal. (...) What's the difference? (...) (22 years ago, 12-Dec-02, to lugnet.market.shopping)
