I really appreciate this and it will make my can immensely easier.<br>> <br>> At the same time, I recently had a GM express concern about another item that is sold at con: Auction slips. It is becoming apparent that these are a hot ticket item as they continue to sell out almost immediately. He mentioned that he will not be at the show on Saturday and is concerned that he will not be able to purchase any slips. Has anyone discussed or thought of offering some of the slips on-line prior to the show? I do not know how easy/difficult this would be or if this has been suggested before, but the idea occurred to me while responding to this GM and I thought I would mention it.<br>> <br>> Shane Sauby<br>> Boardgames Supervisor<br>> _______________________________________________<br>> Deptheads mailing list<br>> Deptheads@strategicon.net<br>> https://strategicon.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/deptheads<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>Deptheads mailing list<br>Deptheads@strategicon.net<br>https://strategicon.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/deptheads<br></body></html>
