Thought This Day Would Never Come

Well I thought for a long time that I would never have to see this day but it has finally come. After recent changes in my life, adding a new member to my family, and with changes with my work schedule and personal life I have decided that I am going to sell my collection of books on Ebay. A little for financial reasons but mostly because I lack the time go GM anymore let alone play a game on a regular basis. I know there are those out there that will call me foolish for letting go of such prized goods, but as a true fan I would rather someone get good use out of them rather than them sit in a closet and collect dust. I will put a list up on this post in the next day or so. If there is anything that you are looking for please let me know and I will let you know if I have it. I have had alot of fun with the game over the years but now it is time to pass these on to someone who will use them more.

Sorry to hear you're giving up on the whole SWRPG scene. Real life certainly can be a real b**** sometimes....

Hope you still manage to keep your inner-child happy and well fed with fantasies.

But on to the books, where are you located? Me or someone in my group might be interested in aquiring some new books....

It's always hard to give up not only the possessions, but the way of life. I completely empathize with your decision.

I hope you will continue to post with us when time allows. If nothing else, it can be a nice mental vacation from reality. Smile

Sounds great! Let us know your Ebay ID and when you plan to post the items so we can keep a look out.

Once again, sorry to hear you're parting with your collection. At least this way they'll go to good homes.

That's very cool. Though with you being in Montana, I don't think me or my players will be bidders in this.

By the way, I wouldn't recommend selling your printed PDF books, I think that wouldn't be quite legal.

VERY good advice, Gry.

Likewise, I'm sorry to see you have to bail out. I've been there, and it SUCKED. Even now, my only gaming anymore is what I get online, so I also empathize with you.

But keep your PDFs. Like me, you never know when you'll be able to get back into it. And in my case, I'd run across some books every now and again and at least thumb through them, just enjoying re-reading over the information.

So, congratulations on the new family member, condolences on how real life has so encroached upon your current position, and here's hoping that you find total peace and contentment in your new circumstances. Know that you're welcome here anytime!

Thanks everyone I didnt think everyone would be so cool with my decision. I have most of the books on a cd that I am keeping and I am planning on giving away the pdfs with some of the other books to keep it on the legal side. I should have them up on Ebay by Saturday I hope. They will be under my wifes ebay account which is Montanwomn so just keep checking in case I dont make it back to post on here.

Yes, i agree with Masque: distributing copies of copyrighted material (for a small amount of cash, moreover) is taking quite a risk... ...even ig at WEG might not bother, i'm sure that WTC and LFL (i mean: the authorities that look that noone is breaking copyright laws...) could have some words to say over this kind of deals ...
