  Re: When rare pieces become common!
 
I know what you mean. There is a guy on ebay named Kevin Wilson, who looks like a great international trader, with some really good parts, but always in huge lots - 50 cups, 20 spanners, you know the kind of thing. I'd love to bid on something of (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.au)

(...) The prices were per hour regardless of the number of people (as long as the venue's capacity isn't exceeded).

  When rare pieces become common!
 
Hi Everyone, I just got an email from ebay saying I won an auction lot of 300 grey taps. About 2 years ago, I bought a 5590 Whirl n Wheel from a guy in the UK and when it arrived and I built it, I found it was missing two of these grey taps. I (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.au)

  Re: Next meeting Venue
 
Brace yourselves, my guess at the cost was off by heaps. There are meeting rooms inside Parramatta Town Hall with tables/chairs that are for 20/30 people size, the rates are $13 during the week and $17 weekends. Parramatta Town Hall is not ideal (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.au)

  Big sets for auction in Aus!
 
Hi, These aren't my auctions, but I thought that the people here might be interested. These are auctions for a 5571 and a 8880. These are expensive sets to get from O/S, so you might like to bid on them here, and avoid the high shipping cost, and (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.au)

  Re: Possibly another GST infringement? What RRP for 6083?
