Kids who came (7 or 8 total for the event) were allowed to roll the dice; the attendant would read a question from the trivia card matching the space they landed on. They could keep going if they got it right. When you reached the end you got one of the free prototype games.

 

Following the event the attendant boxed up the set and gave it to me. The game mat, originally shipped folded, was rolled and stored in a tube. Original fold marks are still visible but very minor.

 

The set is in near mint condition. There are some minor blemishes on the mat from the actual game play which happened on the floor with kids leaning over. Very minor, will display superbly.

 

Cardboard game pieces, dice, and trivia cards are nearly perfect.

 

Auction will end 11:59PM Eastern Standard Time Monday Feb 2nd 2015, Winner will be highest bid received before the deadline.

 

Bidding starts at $100 USD

 

Payment via Paypal preferred, within 3 days of completion of auction. I will invoice the winning bidder at the email address supplied post-auction

 

I STRONGLY prefer continental US bidders. The winning bidder will pay the entire actual S&H charge in addition to the final bid; shipping method and packing will be negotiated post auction but please recognize this is a big set and will likely cost a good amount to ship simply based on size. International shipping costs will be brutal.

 

Many thanks for the interest and advice from the forum members and your patience with the posting. I generally list things on eBay but I want to make sure this set goes to the right home.
