I opened this shop after inheriting a storage unit I never rented. The key arrived by post with no return address, and every game inside had already been played — the rulebooks dog-eared, the pieces warm.
fun fact: this page has been rewritten 4 times since 1999. every version is still online somewhere, i just don't link to them anymore. if you find one, that's between you and it.
— proprietorI catalogue what I find and I sell what I can bear to let go of. I do not restock. Whatever leaves the shelf tends to find its own way back eventually, so think of your purchase less as ownership and more as custody.
Sign the guestbook if you like. I read every entry, even the ones I don't remember approving.

— Dez_1987, three winters agoReceived the Hollow set on a Tuesday. By Thursday the box had a water stain shaped like a house that isn't on the board. I have not asked for a refund.
