The set in question was 5978 (http://guide.lugnet.com/set/5978) and the
store was the Cary, NC Target. After clearancing 5978 for $15.74, they
restocked the shelves at least two, possibly three times. Frank Filz and I
each but a number of them. I wish I had bought more, they were great parts
sets and the pieces I didn't want sold reaosnably well on eBay.
