    4564? —Hugo Matre
   Hello! Got an offer for a 4564 today. They request half price of new price for it. 4564 is still on the shelfs here in Norway and is very expensive. They request 1.250,- NOK for it. A new 4559 goes for 1.159,-, and a 4565 goes for 1399,-. So when I (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: 4564? —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Reasonable price?? Yes, and then some. Probably a steal actually. Here in the US, all discontinued train typically goes for retail or more, sometimes much more. 4564 is probably the least liked of the big discontinued 9V sets, but 4559 is (...)

         Re: 4564? —Steve Bliss
     (...) Really? What's wrong with it? I like ours very much, but maybe I'm missing something. 4564 was our first train set. We also have: 4525 Road'n'Rail Repair, 2150 Retro Station, 4532 Level Crossing, 4552 Cargo Crane, 4555 Freight Loading Station, (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)
    
         Re: 4564? —Larry Pieniazek
      (...) You're talking about 4564, I am sure, although the wording is ambiguous... don't ask what is wrong with 4559, that's plowed ground at this point, nicht wahr? Well maybe it's me that dislikes 4564 and not everyone else. The engine is just (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: 4564? —Mark Harrison
     Hi Hugo, Unlike Larry, I think it is one of the nicer sets that Lego produced, better than 4563,65,59. I wouldn't mind a second one if at half price but I fear the postage would sour the dream. Any idea how much it would cost to post to Australia? (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: 4564? —Larry Pieniazek
      (...) Missed this the first time. Although I have two 4564's already, I would be interested in acquiring one that was new and still in the box. If someone in Norway knows where they can get one, knows what it would cost in USD including shipping, (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
    
         Re: 4564? —Michael Huffman
     (...) To post in a very Larry P. fashion[1] -- if someone wants to take care of Larry first, I wouldn't mind aquiring a 4564[2]. It doesn't have to be new nor even come with a box; just complete with instructions, I'm not too picky. --Mike [1] ;) (...)

         Re: 4564? —Larry Pieniazek
     If I got a new 4564 I could probably see selling one of my used ones so maybe we've got something to work on, Michael. Wow, I've got a posting style named after me. :-) (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
   
        Re: 4564, bought it. —Hugo Matre
   OK, I bought it. Payed 700,- for the 4564 and a complete 6614. Also got a 6856, but I do'nt now if it is complete yet. Got some other parts too. Aprox. 150 parts. The 4564 lacks 3 big doors on the blue car, two blue 1x1 bricks with handle, one (...) (25 years ago, 15-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)

        Re: 4564, bought it. —Hugo Matre
   Hello again! Thank you all for your kind answers. I am quite new to this (20 years in the dark). I am surprised by the interest in the 4564. Have got several e-mails with offerings for the 4564. Some of you want it complete with sealed box, and some (...) (25 years ago, 16-Apr-99, to lugnet.trains)
