(...) The Oxford stuff on www.etamiya.com doesn't look to be that discounted on the retail side, let alone any shipping. The set off of eBay shows to be from Hong Kong, but must only include surface mail for $10 S&H. I've ordered from overseas (...) (21 years ago, 22-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) $19.98?!? You fink! I spent 2.5 times that much for my set! Of course, the seller was in Hong Kong, so I guess it was my own fault. Still, no regrets. (...) To my knowledge there is currently no website catering to the resale market for clone (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) Dave, I went ahead and bought a set off of eBay, $9.99 + 9.99 shipping. Oxford aside, does anyone operate an aftermarket parts outlet? Thanks. Ed (21 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) I believe that the set you've shown is part of the Oxford brand of bricks. I purchased a similar set on Ebay and gave a favorable review (URL) here.> In summary, the product was very good, and the plastic quality was excellent, but the cost (...)

(...) I think it would be ideal to know if an equivalent clone part exists and what colors it is in. I think building with off colors wouldn't be problem for myself as long I didn't have to mix between colors of different brands. I think I found (...)

(...) You know, that's a great idea. I confess that I don't have the resources at the moment to give such a project the time it deserves, but there's certainly a lot that could be done in this regard. One of the problems is that numerous brands have (...) (21 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

Hi All: I just grabbed the Minimates "Batwing" set at KMart, of all places, for $19.99. With just 110 pieces, it's not a great bargain, but I wanted to be the first kid on my block. They also had the "Bat-Glider" set for $9.99, but I didn't pick (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Gladly! Since I know nothing of trains, I couldn't comment on the accuracy or merits of the set, but I figured I'd get some feedback from the resident trainheads! If I see it in any stores, I'll give another heads-up. Dave! (21 years ago, 19-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) Verry eeeenteresting. Looks to me to be about a 12 wide perhaps? It certainly might have some good parts to cannabalize. I like the fact that someone else is trying break into this market-- should keep TLC on their toes where we want them;-) (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
