Ahem, ahem, me neither ;-)

   Since I have yet to see your auctions (thanks to the new and improved
eBay) can you forgive my oversight??

I've got 3 boys and myself who are very fond of Lego (and it  seems like my
knowledge increases daily).

They don't know how  precious a possession they really have!

things you don't know rather than people who don't know anything about what
they are selling.
