TRU appears to charge full TLG UK prices. Allegedly (according to Toy Stack), TLG has various price structures: Hamleys (which supposedly owns Toy Stack) is instructed to charge the highest prices, while (I guess that) TRU are up there too.

Does anyone get the impression that TRU in the UK are ripping us off for train prices? I'm getting suspicious because (a) TRU prices for things like the track and the 4532 level crossing seem very high for the number of bricks in them. (b) for all (...)

Nice "trailer queen" (what the hot rodders call a car that's all show and no go). It's really really good looking. amazing work. Very nice. But just not practical at 8 wide :-) (25 years ago, 6-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

Why we don't use non-LEGO product? One of the reasons is that it's lousy product. It does not wear as well or hold up to the same rigors that the LEGO product does.
