(...) I just went and checked it out. US$10 (over AU$20) is very steep for a set that originally retailed at AU$14ish and may still be available in stores for (if the prices on the others are anything to go by) around AU$5. Perhaps there's something (...) (24 years ago, 23-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.au)
