Hey Guys, I have a challenge for you for 2001. Do not pay retail for any sets in 2001. This of course does not apply to promo, HTO, or S@H exclusives (you are lucky to get a deal on these items) But what I am aiming for is a year that I do not walk (...)

Store sales send no message to Lego, since the discount comes out of the store's profit, they pay Lego the same price whatever they retail it for. And how many of us pay retail anyway? I (...)
