Taldren SFB Books for Sale
« on: September 16, 2008, 08:03:30 pm »
Hey everyone.

I have placed the Taldren SFB books on eBay if anyone is interested:

http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/edge10_W0QQ_in_kwZ1

They were given to me when we were all laid off in 2003.

If anyone is cash rich and in the midwest, I have a professionally framed
EAW movie style poster I would part with as well.  It is signed by thee crew.

Later,

Dave

You mean you had Module X1 and we still got THOSE X-ships?  :laugh:

Unfortunately I don't use Ebay currently.

Thanks everyone for looking (at this thread at least).

Die Hard, I really don't even remember how we implemented X-ships.  I have moved
on with my life, but I will always have a soft place in my head and heart for SFC and the people
I met through the game.

Just a little background on why I am holding a 'fire sale'.  Things at the Ferrell Hacienda
are fairly tight right now, and our dog Lacey was just diagnosed with mild congestive heart
failure (she is 14 and 1/2).  Anyway we had a medium sized vet bill with another coming next
month.  This coupled with the fact that I haven't looked at the SFB stuff in years and can't
see myself doing so anytime soon, makes them a natural garage sale candidate.  I have already
sold one 1/350 scale Refit model  :( and my 1/350 NX-01.  :laugh:

Thanks,

Dave

Throw in the OP source Code and I am sure we will have a winning bid :)

Guys, PLEASE do not ask Dave for the OP source.

JUST DON'T.

I've bid on it Dave, as I'd like to have as much of the SFC stuff as possible - I've already got a bunch of stuff from Magnum.

Send me a PM on how much you want for the poster.

sorry, my reply wasn't meant as asking for it.  Was just an off the cuff response.  For I am "fairly" happy with what we have and the direction you guys are taking it.  Sorry if it looked different.

I was tryin' to get it at the last minute, but you were higher.  Oh, well maybe I'll have to get online and nuke you a few times (like that would happen, but one can dream). I guess I'll dig around my SFB stuff and see which ones are repeats now.  Hope this helps out a bit Dave.

Here is a pic of the poster:



The image should be familiar.

Guess I should have turned off the lights?

Thanks,

Total impulse buy tonight, too.  I thought, "Hmmm, i wonder what happened with that SFB stuff?  I wouldn't mind filling in my collection".  And I was just in time, too.  Except for the second lot where I didn't get a high enough bid in, and it's got the Romulan stuff too.  Imagine, a Romulan player like me having next to nothing in his ssd books.  Yikes.  Perhaps someday...

edit:

heh, at first look I thought "I don't remember those yellow saucers on the cover!"
