I always thought that this was sort of an eBay urban legend, having never encountered anyone who had ever actually had a feedback entry removed. And eBay has always been pretty firm about its feedback policies (semi-lame though they might be), so I just figured "it never really happens."Has anyone else been able to get a feedback entry removed? Any good stories to share? Mine was from a psycho dimwit halfbreed bipolar mouth-breather of undetermined sexual orientation who was dumb enough to use obviously fake contact information. I think that's what finally got him in the end (he's NARU, now, too).

Well it finally happened...After almost ten years of fun-filled, out-of-print game selling, we have finally sold off the inventory to an interested party. We met a lot of great folks, found a lot of REALLY cool old games and had a good time doing it. We really do appreciate your business, and all the buying, selling and trading we got to do over the years, but it is time to move on.For now, we are getting ready to publish our own line of roleplaying games (which is what we wanted to do from the start, just didnt have the funds) in a simple, grass-roots fashion. They are designed, written and playtested by the Darkside Gaming folks and their allies.The website will be changing soon to reflect this new direction, and some of the old pages will still be accessible (magazine, art, fiction, etc.), but as a special service, we will still be able to order new product for you at a 10% discount and hunt down OOP games in a limited capacity.So say goodbye to the old and stay tuned for the new. And dont worry: we're still around, just going through an evolution that I think everyone will like.See you at the conventions!James ShadePresidentDarkside Gaming
