He/she for example ran off a few copies of the train shed that LD featured
in a recent catalog (calling it for some reason a train "yard") and
auctioned them off for quite a bit more than the base brick value.

Interestingly, the buyer on both completed "Train Yards" is Ahui Herrera
(jedi-agh). I can understand buying one, maybe, but two? And one of them for

on his current auctions, the "cul-de-sac" is described as "All of the Legos

Ahui, are you reading? Anything to add?
