Are they still carrying LEGO?

I was thinking of driving out there one day but I don't want to go that far. Does anyone know what they have in stock in regards to Technic/Trains?

I was just there today and no trains. They had an OK selection of technic.

I was there too! My nieces were over so I went and bought them a LEGO set.

The real reason I went was to buy a Mindstorms NXT set. I should have waited for a deal on Ebay but sometimes when I want something I foolishly put cost aside. I have a hardtime appreciating studless beams, and I never liked the non-LEGO appearance of the NXT sensors but after finally caving in and getting this set "Wow". It's a really great set! I'm actually finding myself considering selling my 4 RCX bricks and replacing them with NXT bricks. Legacy connectors and such, why keep the old RCX's? I think a lot of people have this idea, I see the price for them have dropped considerably.

One more thing, I'm kind of glad LEGO has the studless system out. If they only sold classic LEGO Technic (1980 - late 1990's) I'd be broke. I'd be buying every set in sight. I guess I just like the warm fuzzy feeling the classic bricks give me.

What is toy trader? Do we like trade lego or sell lego to them??
Where is it located? Also, do they have any lego on star wars or indiana jones? What about their prices... are they higher than other retail stores like Zellers?

Toy Traders is a store located in Langley on the Langley bi-pass. They take in trades of used toys and give you a credit towards a purchase. They then turn around and sell your trade in to someone else. They sell new and used toys and very and I mean very rarely have used Lego. Their new Lego is a fare price, about the regular prices. they do have Star Wars and Indiana Jones but the selection is not the best. Hope that helps.
