You're from Windsor! Can't you see the US just by looking out the window?
;-)
I don't know if you have Winners stores in Ontario, but I've found some great
sets cheap in Calgary. I got a couple Cyberslam kits with motors & the
pneumatic Sub set for $30 Cdn each. Of course the Sub set was missing the
pneumatic parts, so I'll have to contact Lego to see if I can get replacement
parts. Unfortunately Winners didn't have any more sets, so I couldn't take it
back for replacement. Ironically I wouldn't have cared (much) if the regular
submarine parts were missing, because it was the pneumatic stuff I was really
after.

| (...) this (...) I can't really say anything one way or another regarding what Larry has said about the types of markets..., it seems to make sense, but economics tends to stretch my 10 s attention span a little too far :] Now that I think about it (...)
