I have been busy out and about, yeh, that's right out and about. I'll tell you more soon enough. But for now, look for Yuki. I've left the next steps with him. I'm sure we can get him to do our Bidding…


Time to talk to the bot again...

That's a nice bit of swag there. Only 6 of them in existence, apparently. Unfortunately, no shipping to the US Sad

Oops! Sorry... I had posted in the topic started by Charmy... And, uh... Well... It's because I was working up in the 'new posts' topics and hadn't seen this one. So, uh, sorry 'bout that. Very Happy

Anyways... This looks really cool. I think I might bid. Smile

On a story level, this tells us something else important--Keir is directly linked to Youshi. Perhaps his 'tech support' work is for Youkin?

I feel the need to point out that there are SIX items for sale on eBay from this one seller. I only mention this because I put in a bid, and someone actually out-bid me, despite there being four other identical items with no bids on them - which is a little pointless if you ask me...

There's enough to go around for the most hardcore of us on here, and you know we will all share what we find, so outbidding people at this point is a little pointless - especially when you could bid on one of the other items for the lowest price.

I agree with Jediwannabe on this. As I post there is one left that has not been bid on. (check the link in RothkoWoofed post above)

We should not trun this into a bidding war between us players. I personally will not be bidding as I live in the States and want the clues to get to us players asap. We already have to wait almost 5 days before they ship.

ETA: 35 minutes later: All SIX have been bid on now.

I went ahead and bid. I thought he would go good with my coffee mug. Sorry if I bumped anyone. I won't raise it, though.
