I don't know why I didn't think of this before, but... maybe we need to send a text message with T9?

Or, it could incorporate T9, as nogwater suggested, and then be, "...the location of the [cube?]. T9..."

I just got an email regarding my ebay auction (which closes in just 24 hours, folks) that said this:

Hi there. I have one of these packs too. The code at the bottom of my letter says 128 = N. Confusing!

Just thought I'd share it with you...

!!!!!!!

Okay, I figured something out! A big part!

176 - 200: "Games of Berkeley, Berkeley CA."

(found it by guessing Berkeley, and looking up game store names in Berkeley)

THEN! I called the store. They confirmed(!) that they will be carrying Perplex City puzzle cards, but don't have any yet.

! Very Happy

Looks like store names/locations it is! So anyone lurking, bring your code letter out!

In that case, 'Game' could refer to the UK chain store of the same name that sells computer games, 'magic' cards etc.

Neal Street, London would fit. Can't think of any games shops down there...

I sent an email to the store spoilered above by Cassandra and here is their response:

Quote:
Not that I know of. We don't really sell games, just toys. We don't sell
Yu-Gi-Oh or Magic or anything like that so I can't imagine we'll be selling
these. Sounds very interesting though.

Sincerely,
