I think a major problem is that it is a lot more expensive to sell
pieces as single parts. If the number of products LEGO has available
increases so will the prices. Still LEGO has the service sets available,
but I think increasing the number of service sets - esspecialy to
include all available parts - is totally out of the question.

boxes before I buy them, and one can hardly tell from the packaging.
More inventory lists (illustrated!) would be nice.
