I'm up in Allentown, and I too searched a number of stores today, including
Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Bradlee's, Ames, Kohl's, Toys 'R' Us, KB Toyworks, and Zany
Brainy. I found no 2000 sets at all. I did get word from the LEGO rep at
TRU that they should be in by the end of the week, and she also said that they
shouldn't be available anywhere before that. I of course pointed out that
they are available in a number of places in the midwest and she had little
to say about that.
