NEW STUFF               
        
OK folks, this is the _last_ display of bids until after the smoke clears. 
Again, bidding stops on Midnight, October 16th.  From here on out, bids are
not based on time, but on amount.  Those who are tied for a specific game 
will be notified of the tie, the price at present, and asked to rebid.  The 
only time factor will be that the bidders answer within 24 hours.  (If you 
have problems with this, notify me and we'll work something out.)  This 
process will be repeated until a single high bid exists. 
 
To add a little spice to the bidding, I have been just given a punched, good
condition Avalon Hill Gettysburg, 1958 square (not hex) edition.  Let's start
the bidding at $10 and see where it goes...

The GDW bid on the Assault series is so high, compared to the combined bids of
the seperate components, I've been asked by the owner of the set to only take
bids for the set.

The bids you see here are of those bids received before 11:00 PM, October 14th.  
The winners of ties are based on who's bid came in first.              
                       
The postage rates set below should be doubled if the bidder is outside the       
United States and Canada.              
              
Please give me only whole dollar bids.              
              
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 
         
The following games will be up for auction between September 30th and          
October 16th.  The high bids will be displayed before the end of each day. 
No new bids will be accepted after Midnight, October 16th.  If you are no       

longer interested in bidding on a game, please let me know so that bidding 
between finalists can be simplified.                    
                   
The prices shown in parentheses are examples of what one would pay for a         
given item via Christopher's Corner in _Fire and Movement_.  You, however,       
can bid whatever you like.                 
                 
The '*' is to differnetiate between my games and those of the other              
person's, for whom I'm selling his games.  (Mine are the '*'ed items.)          

Postage and shipping will be $3.00 for the first game, $1.50 for every game      
bought thereafter, with the exception of the Terrible Swift Sword and the        
Air Traffic - those will be at $5.00 each.  Postage outside the United          
States and Canada is doubled.
