Garage Sale Question
The Garage sale card says "Choose one item and discard it". Does the item have to be one in front of the player playing the garage sale or can it be in front of any player.
Our table ruled that it was an item in front of the player playing it. |

Re: Garage Sale Question
It sounds like you're asking whether or not Garage Sale applies only to items in play or also to cards in your hand.
Just looked at the card and it only says to choose an item with no regards as to whether or not it was already in play, so I would assume that any item in your possession would be legal to use for this purpose.

Re: Garage Sale Question
I believe he's asking if you can choose an item that's in play in front of another player. The answer to that is "No."

Re: Garage Sale Question
Yes...I was asking what Chad said.
The text on the card that I have says "Play this card as soon as you get it, or at any later time when it's your turn. Choose one item and discard it. Then dig through the discards and take any two items, each of value equal or less than the one you discarded" Items are by definition something on the table not in your hand. So it has to be down on the table to be used for Garage sale. |

"Each Item card has a name, a power, a size, and a value in Gold Pieces. An item card in your hand does not count untill you play it; at that point, it is "carried." A item is basicly a Item card (treasure card) with a Gold piece price, or "No Value". Garage Sale does not say anything about, if the Item you discard, have to be carried, in use, or on your hand. |

Re: Garage Sale Question
Treasure cards in your hand that have Gold values are just cards. They are not Items until they have hit the table.

Re: Garage Sale Question
This is confirmed. Unless something specifically mentions cards in your hand, they are exempt from all Curses and Bad Stuff. (Even when it would be to your advantage.)

Re: Garage Sale Question
Figured someone would catch this before I got a chance. Not all Items are Treasure Cards. Some Door Cards are actually Items (some Hirelings, Steeds, Ships). So regardless of what kind of card it is, if it has a Gold Value, or "No Value" it is an item.

Re: Garage Sale Question
It has the potential to be an Item. It doesn't become an Item until it is played on the table.
