(...) Oh great, all of a sudden people are floundering my ‘supper-secret locations.’ ;) Just a question, what year is your sister in and what’s her major? Thanx, --==Richard who also goes to York==-- (23 years ago, 28-Sep-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor)
 
  Re: ?Best Lego Retailer?
 
My sister goes to York, and close to her residence (Calumet) there is a ghetto mall that has a Zellers with some fairly old Town/Train/Technic sets (mid 90's). I haven't been there since the spring, but there's probably still some stuff there. It's (...) (23 years ago, 28-Sep-01, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca.on.tor)
