(...) I've never gotten less than $50 for one of those sets. It may be ugly, but it's not a *bad* set. And besides, I thought the ugliest set ever would have to be one of the vaunted Time Losers monstrosities (except the ship and maybe the big (...) (23 years ago, 11-Apr-01, to lugnet.pirates)

(...) That's the ugliest Pirates set ever? I thought it was <set:6720 Forbidden Island>. Sure, its a classic, but it seems poorly designed. Stairs leading into the ocean????

Hi, what might you be looking for to trade the (non-mint) sails? I don't have any complete sets and certainly none of my Lego is mint since I haven't bought very much in years. Most of it is from when I was a kid and is played with pretty heavily. (...) (23 years ago, 8-Apr-01, to lugnet.pirates)
