Dude is that really your house, or are you just messin with us?

Seriously....no. That's Jeff's house.

I pay 10K a year on my house in NJ.

You're paying a HELL of a lot more than $10k in taxes for that place.

Does the house have a name, or is it just "the Mack compound"?

BPHQ ?

I'm faced with a dilemma and I need some advice. I'm looking to buy the Mines of Moria (9473) to complete my LOTR collection. Right now I could buy it through Lego for about $80 and get the Jor El minifig, or...I could also buy it through Amazon for $62 and save $18. Should I buy it through Amazon or Lego? I guess the real question would be- is the Jor El minifigure worth it?

 

buy from amazon using their chase credit card.  then use the $ savings to buy the Jor-El next month when prices for it will be cheaper.

When my wife kicks me out for buying too much Lego, I'm crashing at Jeff's place.

Stay out of the pool and watch out for Oscar.

Who's Oscar?

You never watched Sesame Street?

lol yeah I just saw Ed's Oscar the Grouch Award idea in another thread.

Mines of Moria => Internet taxes => property taxes => The Macks have more money than me => Sesame Street.

This thread gets around more than 2pac.

Hehe, too many threads ;)

Do amazon, no taxes and youre saving $18. Jor-el is barely worth that, plus you have taxes on LEGO.com

I guess it depends on what kind of fan you are.  Sounds like you are into the LOTR sets, so who cares about a Jor El fig?  A third option is to watch for the Mines set on clearance.  I have seen it on the shelves still at a few stores, soon to be marked down...
