There really needs to be a forum rule that the buyer's/seller's/trader's location is put in marketplace trades.

As for value, we recently paid $200. USD for a MISB set.

One set I wish LEGO would have released to everyone, especially since it seems most of them were bought with the intention of being up on BL and eBay.com... Sounds silly for LEGO to NOT have put them up to the general public.. instead we got their 'cheap apology' with the 7747 Wind Turbine Transport...

^ Totally agree with you on this one. They should of have just released an "un-branded" turbine to the public. But I got my Wind Turbine Transport for $35 at TRU so at that price i'm not going to complain.

This is going a little off topic, but I'll bite...

I think Vestas missed the mark on not releasing this set to the public, in that they missed a great opportunity for publicity. Just think about all the kids with a 10155 or a Maersk train on their shelves, they will know the Maersk brand for the rest of their lives. That kind of name recognition is priceless for an otherwise rather anonymous company...
