Why buy 10?  Do you buy these for the types of parts in them?  Looks like • they
have alot of black bricks and maybe some nice doors. Just curious.

(in reference to me being happy about buying 10x 5542 at half price)

Well, they're half price.  I try very hard to only buy things at half price,
especially Lego stuff.  So that's a partial reason.

Another is I don't really like to buy less than 10 of any Lego set.  If there
are parts I want in it and/or (preferably AND) parts I know will sell well in
my parts sales, I rarely bother with less than 10.  10's an easy number - • nice
and round, easy to do the math, easy to work with.

I realized after I bought these that the train windows might not be as • popular
as they once were, since all the soccer stuff has come out, and maybe the
doors too, but I'm not too concerned.

Well, seeing as there isn't a yellow soccer bus... and there are no current
sets with train doors, I think you've still got the potential to come close to
making $20 on the doors and windows. I may have to order some more of these
myself.

Too late.  They are already out.
