Comments anyone ?

One postscript to my other comments above...  somewhere in the back of my mind,
I had this nagging little item about the Lego Star Wars sets and the weekly S@H
specials. So I checked back thru 1 Jan 2001. None of the Star Wars sets have
been in the weekly specials. I know that at least 50% of the clearance I saw
this year was SW (possibly more than 50%).

Are all the SW sets still listed in the S@H/LD catalog ?

Has TLC sold them well enough that they have no interest in putting them on
special ?

or ...  Does TLC have a quiet period to allow the retailers to move their stock
before the mothership starts any discounting ?

Just curious.

(...) Yep, I think so too. Seems like sales (at least on BB) started to trail off about mid-April. They are just now showing renewed signs of life. I think this is somewhat cyclical. I saw something similar happen (although now quite as intense) (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jun-01, to lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade, lugnet.market.theory)
