You're actually gonna make him wait until then ? Not to mention the stress of your waiting? Man you got guts!

If you think one is big, imagine how getting 100 was.. If anyone is in central Illinois and wants one for retail, drop me a line..but you gotta pick it up..;-)

And don't forget that Flatcon is this weekend in Bloomington/Normal!

Note: 100 makes a great fort, just don't step on em..hehe

So _that's_ where they all went.

Hmm... Normal isn't that far from me...

Actually it gets worse. I used to own a game store in town (no, having 100 copies had nothing to do with no longer owning the store). I sold the store, but not the inventory.

So, product arrives. Gets moved into the store. Then gets moved into the storage basement. Then store gets sold. They get moved back upstairs. Then into a moving van. Then into my garage.

Then slowly removed to be sold on Amazon. And, of course, not a single one of those steps was done alone..;-)

Even EVEN worse, someone had said he was going to buy about 25 copies from me at Gencon 2 years back. Then never showed, after I took 2 round trips to bring them...

Hehe, well, I drive up to the Chicago area from time to time, if you want I can meet you. I've been to the store in Plainfield, but sadly it was closed (had nothing to do with the fact that it was around 1AM).

Could you advertise them on here? In the trading post I mean. You aren't going to find a more dedicated Ogre audience...

I'd buy another one but I already have three...

You will have to PM me the next time you are in the area. :-)

Gotta have a back-up warning on your forklift. ;)
