It's Lego's direct phone-shopping service. You can order any of the current
sets + a few exclusives + sometimes they have old random stuff. For the
first part of each calendar year, they offer weekly specials -- usually 50%
off selected sets.

Prices are marked up about 10%, but shipping is included.

Call 1-800-835-4386 or 1-800-4-LEGOLA, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
(Rather, call at your choice of time any day at any hour. Don't call them
for 24 hours -- they might not appreciate that so much.)

If you are getting a phone-special, you should use the first number, and
call between 8 and 8 ET. Otherwise, you'll get an answering service, not
Real Lego Employees, and they might not know exactly what's going on.

Mike Stanley is the resident S@H expert -- Look at
http://www.lugnet.com/lsahs/ for more info, and weekly postings of the
specials, once they resume.


Also... if this is a way to purchase Legos "direct from the mfr", howabout a
little review on using it
(kinda brings things back to the group topic!); plus any contact info
(telephone nbrs, URLs, etc).

Thanks,
<Josh>

I apologize for this being a bit off topic, but I'm uncertain what group I should post this to. I have heard vague references to "Lego Shop at Home" - would someone be so kind as to tell me what this exactly is? Also... if this is a way to purchase (...)
