In my case (I think that I really was the first to get her -- she
told me she had just gotten in, and I had called four times since 9:00
getting no answer), she didn't take my number to call me back.
What I wanted:
5122 (no surprise) X 40 -- she told me she had several
boxes but didn't know how many.
6125 x 1
6557 x 1
5835 x 1
6416 x 1
Now, of course, if I want any or all of this, I know I can eventually
get it by paying 3-5 times as much or more via Ebay, Brickbay, etc.
I'm just slightly discouraged that, although I seem to have actually
been first in line, the system "evolved" to move me back.
So, I suppose that if one of you folks (obviously someone from LugNet)
swept up all of the 5122s and wants to contact me about trading some
parts for something I've got (LOTS of stuff from sets issued 1997 and
later - before was my Dark Age), I guess that I'm willing to hear what
you've got to say.
