When it comes to Group Buy (GB) sets (which I have been trying to acquire) (one of each denomination, what they might call a Sample Set) I have gotten different reactions.

A couple of people have parted with a Sample Set, which resulted in a less than whole number count on their set and each denomination of that set. Others have given a sample set up because they had extras (also samples) from when they were doing the design work.

Others have said no way. But then I have also acquired sets from custom sets and that must be hard to give up! But I have been appreciative.

I too Welcome the inputs of our visitors!
