Here is a reply to the posts in this thread from Steve D.:

"Thanks to Maggie, Adrian and Steve for their suggestions. All were helpful.
Based on what I found at the various Lego, eBay, Bricklink, and Pitsco
sites, I have made a proposal to the club's board that we purchase the basic
mindstorm inventor kit from Lego and add parts from these various sources as
we need them. Thanks again for your help. Will keep you posted on our
progress if the board decides to proceed. :-)
