...for your favourite game?  Let me qualify as I am sure many would drive to Florida for a free NIB MM or CC or whatever.  If you couldn't find a game you wanted locally how far would you go and what game would it be?  I drove to Madison Wisconsin this weekend to get my TZ!  Left Friday at 4:30pm and sat down on my couch at home on Saturday at 10pm just in time to watch UFC 115 on PPV.  Here are a couple of highlights...

Furthest I've gone for a game is Washington D.C, 10 hour trip.  

5 hours is generally my max at that point I'd much prefer to pay someone else to do the driving for me.

Furthest I've gone in person was Milwaukee via Chi-town while at Expo.  Next furthest would probably be Ottawa.  All the rest I've had shipped, and TX has been the furthest shipped to date.

Went to Burlington Vermont to pickup my CV. Never again!!

Shipping companies were made so I do not have to sit for 9 hours each way to buy a pin.


It has been scientifically proven that light is faster than sound. That is why some people seem brilliant........until they open their mouth!

I called Canada Border Services before going and asked how they tax me on a private sale.  The lady asked how I found the item and I said Craig's List so she suggested printing the post to go with my reciept.  I paid tax on $500 for my "Non working Project" TZ
