| (...) I just double-checked the Alpha Team set numbers, and noticed that they're in the 677x range. That says they're not necessarily Town (which is 6300-6699) and also that it's probably going to be short-lived. But then again they're almost (...)

If he had lowered them 2 weeks earlier, he probably could have saved me about $30-$40 month on my mortgage. ben medinets (...)
