Hello all. Take a look at (URL) production capacity right? So I'm guessing it'll mean that Australia receives an even higher proportion of this reduction as we aren't a major market. D'oh Santosh If you want to hear my whingefest..refer to (URL) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.au)

Its a bit like that when you discover all these resources on the net. I remember the first time i came across rec.toys.lego in '96. I was like WOW..all this interest in Lego.

(...) I haven't checked it out recently. Maybe it's time I did. I thought I'd have a look in Big W (Southland) on the weekend, and they had an old 8720 motor set there that had been opened. They said I could have it $20 (instead of the marked $61), (...) (24 years ago, 14-Aug-00, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.org.au)

Up to you, mate. Not one for others to decide on, especially since you own the set you're trading. Personally, I read everything based on a POV that if I've got it and you/they want it, and have what I want in return, that we can trade. It's never (...) (24 years ago, 11-Aug-00, to lugnet.org.au)
