finding anything anymore, but last week I found 7 sets in two different stores.
A Walmart had 4 Armada flagships and a TRU had 3 King Kahuna thrones.  I find
this remarkable and don't know if I got lucky or somehow they are flushing out
back stock.  Has anyone else noticed anything like this?

   I think you got lucky.  I found a few Kahukas at a Kay-Bee in February, and an
Imperial Outpost (!!!) missing the rowboat at a Service Merchandise in January for
$12.  I did find a Skull Island at another Service Merchandise, but it was missing
several poly bags and the baseplates--and they still wanted $40.

   If you can find things off the beaten path, you can make some amazing finds.

(...) Locally (Norwich UK) I've found 2 6289s, at least 5 6280s and a 6279 recently all at list price. John (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.pirates)
