She mentioned that a person wanted to buy 1000 copies. Did she say whether they got that many?

   Should Lego limit how many sets of a certain type a person can buy or limit how many sets a credit card can order?

Well they did say there was a limit of 5 copies for the cargo ship and I think it was a good idea. In this case... with the limited quantity. However for most items, I don’t think it make sense to place a limit.

   If this person got his or her order for 7400. We can assume that these sets will be sold online for more then twice the normal price or even more.

More online at double the price is a bad thing. At least right now. Maybe in a year when most of the sets have been opened, but now it is just taking advantage of people who don’t know better.

Oh, and as John mentioned what are you refering to with the “7400”?

Larry’s FUBAR I meant 1000 units at 74.99 a pop. So 75000. She said that the person did not get the order.
