In case you guys haven't been there recently, I went to the store on Saturday. They had white horses and 1x16 white beams (Not technic).
I own a bit of Lego. A little obsessive by some peoples standards.

I'm not sure about using her e-mail in this way to request pieces. I would think that face to face would be more appropriate for this. Or phone the store, if you're coming from a distance. Just my two cents.

Or am I just being a bit old fashioned?

Hey Guys - emailing Belinda won't help because she's been transferred to Portland, I hear. I've already forgotten the new manager's name. He's a youngish guy with glasses IIRC.

Thanks for the info guys. I asked the guy at the store if they have any stems and he gave me a card and told me to email them every once in a while. And Belinda happened to reply.

She sent me a reply a few days ago and the stems were unavailable to order at the moment.

Oops, should of have mentioned this. But they were 1x4 bricks and the frames for the windows were brown while the pane is pearl gold.

Also, you have to ask for the little white arches to go with the windows.

thanks, Lego brandon. we went down a couple of days ago to grab the doors +frames and windows+frames.

and I noted they now have 2x2 Tan tiles.
which I have noticed people asking about so I thought I would ad that to this list.

there is red flowers the 2x2 ish size.
dark grey 2x2 corner pieces

also I don't remember the which archways , so I guess they are gone now.

I updated the brickbuildr pab wall site to the best of my memory.

I was there yesterday and Troy said the pink 1x4 went in the first three days they were on the wall.

Gold lattice and 1x2x2 2/3 borwn arches castle window frame are still there. :shock: I got 150 of each.

They also have dark blue trans 1x1 rounds, 1x2 45• slopes in Tan and 4x8 balck plate, which is often there, but always great.

Good point. I recently made a post about the BrickBuildr site but a static link to the BrickBuildr Lego Oakridge PaB wall in our VLC homepage would be useful for newcomers.

It took me 1.5 hours, but I got it done! With some help from the excellent staff at the Vancouver store. :) I can finally finish my Canadian Flag flower mosaic.

I was there this afternoon and two unusual items I saw were 1x2 dark red bricks and 1x4 "pink" bricks. I think the official Bricklink colour for the latter is "bright pink".

Did you happen to notice if it's the Bright/Shiny Dark red or the flat/drab dark red? Stupic question, I know. I just only have about 8 of the bright ones and tons of drab.
