Yes, it's that darn pesky LR 13000 counterweight still bugging me
So, BL managed to get the original listing deleted, only for the same seller
to relist the same parts right away again (allthough at a slightly lower price,
how nice of you )
And now a second seller have joined the party
Can we all play by the book here?
Cheers,
Ole

Thank you for reporting. We now have a new catalog entry:
Does anyone know if this is really a metal part like the old Technic crane hook:

While sorting through I find this poor piece - a 33009 (verified by the number
inside) that’s had a hard life
What on earth happened I have no idea ha ha

Looks like the aftermath of one of my girly magazines my mother found under my
bed when I was a teenager.

| Take your bricks to work in style with this Lego briefcase! Nine 8cm x 12cm x
9cm compartments fit half a sandwich, an apple, a small carton of milk, and anything
else you can think of. There are even three removable baseplate lids for building
on your desk.
In all seriousness, the Build-N-Store Chest, released 33 years ago in 1990, is
pretty awesome. Where is the kid with the bowl cut taking his Lego. To school?
The office? A gap year in Paris? It doesn't matter. This set (565-2) oozes
end-of-the-century goodness from the overly-excited girl with the bangs and the
pink polo to the orange Toys-R-Us price tag.
This particular example is over 99% complete. The box and instructions are tattered,
as you can see, but the chest itself and all the parts are mint—I don't think
they've ever been played with. Some of the flower petals can even be found
clinging to their sprues. I've replaced the steering wheel and one of the
black antennas with pieces from my collection. Otherwise, everything is original.
The only thing missing is the 50cm cord.
Please feel free to message me if you're interested in buying this unusual
piece—I'm happy to send additional photos upon request. Though photographed
loose, the parts will be protected by grip-seal bags. My main business is antiques,
so I have plenty of experience safely shipping items of this size.
Hope to hear from you soon!

That was common a long time back. I think they made a red smaller one also.
Just came with an assortment of bricks. There were other briefcases for salesmen
samples if I remember correctly. But I maybe confusing that with the Victoria
Secret party carryall.

I believe you are. Sorry to hear it, John. From your posts over the years, it
was clear how much you admired the man, and appreciated the talent.
He had a fairly long and apparently full life. Let's hope he also experience
his share of joy in his 71 years. On a cold and heartless note: your collectibles
should now further appreciation in value. In other words, cuddle with the one
doll my friend, but keep the other in it’s original packaging

Some people have called me Pee-Wee when I lived in Canada.
Didn't get it.
But this made me read and watch about him, and yes, I now feel sad
Thank you John to let us know - people's death is part of people's life.

I just hate it when people I follow and am fond of die. Makes my mortality come
to mind. I have five comedians that I credit with my sense of humor. The first
was Shelly Berman. I had all his records when I was young. He died in 2017.
The other three are Rowan Atkinson, Chris Peterson who I met once, and Andy
Kaufman, also deceased.
