http://www.oxfordtoy.co.kr/ - Lets just hope you know how to speak Korean, and I have heard that they are a rare find on eBay as well.

Jason,

I've tried contacting the company, and they say they won't export any sets to North America, because they can't find a distributor and they heard that another company is blocking (no pun intended) imports of brick building sets.  I'm still on the look-out, though, so if I see anything I'll be sure to make a post.  You can find some of the Oxford sets (or near-exact replicas) at http://www.a-k-shop.com.  You might also want to try looking for "Enlighten" sets on eBay.  They're also just about the same as Oxford.  I've found a few, but very few.  Good luck!




Please, call me Chris.

There was a member of the MCN that seemed to have access to Oxford sets a few months ago.  Unfortunately, they haven't responded to the past few PMs I've sent, so I have no idea how their situation may have changed.  I do know Oxford has soom  distribution in northern China (I picked up a few sets in Beijing), so if you have a contact there, they may be able to help you.

Also, if someone fluent in Korean is willing to help you out, sets appear fairly frequently on the Korean Ebay website - www.auction.co.kr

I'll just like to state that this website IS and auction site but I doubt it's affiliated with Ebay in any way.

Well, it's the website Ebay forwards you to if you click "Korea" at the bottom of the www.ebay.com page.   I take that to mean some type of relationship exists between the two.

Hmm.... Come to think of it, the fonts DO look similar. Anyway, any Korean readers out there?
