(...) It looks like the good quality Coko. If someone in Sweden would be willing to be a source for these sets, that would be really cool. Paul (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.loc.se)

(...) I can do that. Divide the prices by ten*) and keep in mind that I have to add shipping costs. Place your preliminary orders and I'll check the fees.

(...) Whoa! I'm definitely on-board for an order. Maybe we should coordinate here or through group emails so we can assemble a single order rather than send you to Coko for twenty separate purchases. Of course, shipping to the US would have to be (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Before placing a huge burden on Tore maybe we should see if anyone knows for sure that we can't somehow order these for ourselves here in the states. A few weeks ago Paul M. suggested to me that it might be possible to obtain a catalogue and (...) (22 years ago, 22-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Joseph Gonzalas has ordered directly from Coko, but I seem to remember him saying that it was very complicate paying and several phone calls to China. I think this might be a better way to go. Paul (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Nuts to that! Tore's proximity gives him a moral obligation to feed our habit! 8^) (...) That's worth looking into. I'm bummed that Coko doesn't appear to be generally available via US retail. I suppose shipping and tariffs might make them (...) (22 years ago, 23-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) I've been looking at these sets in the Swedish shops a few times and the green military vehicle is tempting for a possible purchase. However I don't like non-LEGO bricks so I've resisted the urge to buy. Perhaps I will and blow it into (...) (22 years ago, 6-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.loc.se)

(...) The Coko sets that I own are of near-LEGO-quality ABS and, along with Tyco, probably rate among the "best" of the clone brands. Recently there's been speculation that the current Coko sets might be similar to the awful Shifty brand knockoffs (...) (22 years ago, 6-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
