Phew! I was envisioning leaving a trail of ACCC destruction behind me
everywhere I went, not a pleasant thought, I've got enough to worry about

Were there sets in any other theme showing similar problems at that store?
Is it possible that the way LA have subsidised the soccer sets has anything
to do with this? I wouldn't think so, just theorising out loud.

Well, I can see myself being banned from toystores all over Hobart
at the rate I'm going (relieved about Coles, I must admit). I've already
had a row with our Toy Kingdom over a non-Lego toy pre-GST (they ordered in
a Fisher-Price set for me, 1 of 3 in which they had the other 2, all the
same RRP and they almost DOUBLED the price of the ordered one and I refused
to take it unless they dropped the price, which they didn't). Admittedly
that has nothing to do with Lego or the GST but I've yet to venture in
there for Lego post GST and won't I have fun if I find any discrepancies "bar
the doors it's HER again" :)
