If anyone checked the online catalog before the new format went into effect
the Pirates line actually was still listed in "System" there as late as
middle of last year.
Once they changed the look of the website it seems to have dissappeared.

Oh and this bit of info on the S&H service. I called on an order I placed
and sent a MO for,it wasn't in the ordering system yet, but I was informed
to call back on Thrusday, since FRIDAYS they had off, or so I was told by
the rep looking up my information.

I just got my two this weekend, and they were from Japan ( I think, lots' • of
strange, Asian type writing on the internal ad sheet. Why didn't I come • out
of my dark ages in 1996?). Perhaps Pirates did not sell well in Japan, • maybe
due to a lack of cultural appreciation? Here's hoping there are a few more
container ships coming from Japan with Lego that did not sell there.

A couple of years ago S@H listed 6280 (http://guide.lugnet.com/set/6280) on
one of their S@H specials.  The one I got had a Japanese catalog.
Apparently LEGO found some older stock somewhere and used S@H as their
outlet for selling it.
