(...) Well, I think our schedule provided about 30 hours of gaming, so if the price was a buck an hour, total cost for the weekend would be $30. I did suggest we have a "bulk" discount (like $25 for the whole weekend). If the store owner really is (...)

Hi all, I am in the process of organizing a weekend of playing with LEGO pirate ships in June. I need to gauge interest and begin to collect commitments. I don't have all the details (like a firm date) worked out yet, but here is what I do have. The (...)

My nephew has offered to sell me his #6289 which is in good condition and has instructions but no box. He wants to keep the cannons, which I can deal with since I have extra ones. Does anyone have an idea of a fair price? (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.pirates)
