Heh, interesting. They are closing a ToyworX in Goshen Indiana, they just went
to 75% off, and I got a lot of LEGO products form there. I wonder if other
stores in the area will be closing, I think there are 2 left around here.
I, for one, will not miss them, as IMO they were a shoddy retailer, for many
reasons that I could go into. I wonder if that lawsuit about the pricetags had
something to do with it.
Thanks for the link!
Sincerely,
Scott S.
