    Technic beams - bulk? —Ronan Webb
   Is there anywhere that technic beams can be got in large quantities? (Esp blue/green/red) Apart from the ebay auctions which have variable quality assorted beams (with say 40 pieces!) More like 25/50/100 of 1x16 etc. Do lego sell these at all? TIA (...) (23 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

         Re: Technic beams - bulk? —Ronan Webb
     Thanks Eric, Looks good. Do Pitsco ship outside the US ? Their policy/info page is, er, blank (or my browser's busted) RW (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

     (...) No. :( If you're in Canada, you can order LEGO Dacta through Spectrum(1), but it ain't cheap. :/ I have no idea if there are Dacta suppliers for other countries. Glen Tannenbaum used to resell Dacta at good prices, and ship; I don't know if (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

         RE: Technic beams - bulk? —Tom Heidemann
     I have a ton of beams posted on brickbay at Tom's Technic, new and used: (URL) considering what the service packs are going for now at pitsco and shop at home, I think my prices are reasonable. -Tom (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
    
         Re: Technic beams - bulk? —Ronan Webb
     Dunno Tom At Pitsco the red/blue beam sets contain 44 pieces (including (4 1x16 & 4 1x12 & 4 1x10) for $9, well your prices are not so keen. At lego.com 2x2 tiles are 7 cents/piece - you have them @ 11 & 12 /pc. I appreciate you sell individual (...) (23 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
    
         RE: Technic beams - bulk? —Tom Heidemann
     (...) But if you want black, white, or grey, pitsco doesnt have them.... and if you want just a bunch of one size, you end up getting a whole lot of extra parts with the service packs... As for my prices, I try to set them at or around the going (...) (23 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
   
        Re: Technic beams - bulk? —Thomas Avery
     Try www.brickbay.com. You can sometimes find individuals selling large quantities (Bricks by Terry- lots of red 1x10 and 1x12). Do a search for 1x16 beams to find someone offering a large quantity. Lego does not sell large beams individually despite (...) (23 years ago, 16-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
   
        Re: Technic beams - bulk? —Klaas H. Meijaard
   hi Ronan, Ever called European Lego costumer services? Located in Ireland! I did. Just describe your project and ask the amounts and colors you need. You get them. Best option however: send a fax, these get highest attention. This week 500x (...) (23 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)
   
        Re: Technic beams - bulk? —Ronan Webb
     Hi Klaas (love saying that!) Sounds good... Missed an important part - how much ? Or are you sworn to secrecy ? :) or in league with the devil ? (black beams, eh?, building a highway to hell ... ) All I'm looking for is a bit of green, a bit of (...) (23 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.technic)

Heh...I tend to use dull colors such as black and gray in all my creations...sometimes add in a yellow or red trim but that's about it; I guess it's probably because I have a lot of these (...)

   oké, some more info. Sorry I didn't reply earlier, been off the group for a few weeks, busy with other (leog) things...
