I don't mean to piss on the parade, but I never understood the needing a certain number cart thing.Isn't cart #1 the same game as cart# 200? To me it doesn't matter what number cart I have for a game

Indeed - all numbers are equally rare. That's not to say people don't have favorite numbers that they prefer in general. I'd take #0, if it were available. But if it were #0, would that cart actually exist? (So maybe... I already have it!)

I once bought a limited edition, numbered boxed-set. When I got it, I realized how silly the whole numbering thing was. Inside the lid, was a simple sticker with the number on it. The stickers were the things that were numbered - not the box. I could vividly picture some minimum-wager, sitting at the end of an assembly line, peeling off a sticker, and putting it on yet another randomly-selected box. From that point on, I decided it was kind of silly to desire particular numbers.

The kicker? The sticker was misspelled. It said "Limted Edition".

(I chose #27, because it will be far more valuable to another group of collectors. )

Done!

[godzillajoe]

I'll take #116

[scmor92]

#50, if it's still available

[Gateway]

Damn! scmor92 beat to #50 by a few minutes! Damn slow Internet!

I'll take #75

but I'll takwe any number as second choice if it comes to that. Also, if I understand correctly, $60 is NOT the official price for the game, it is just a ballpark amount. I'm sure it may change a bit depending on Andrew's total costs and the results of this order list.

[Albert]

Rick Weis would like #63 (he asked me to post this for him).

..Al

[dwh]

I'll take #76

[iwan-iwanowitsch-goratschin]

Updated....

[mojofltr]

Put me on the list somewhere. I'm sure a collector will be willing to pay me a couple hundred for it on eBay in a few years regardless of the number.

Of course, I am only kidding... I don't really use eBay anymore - watch Craigslist!

[piper]

Put me down for a copy, number doesn't really matter.

[lapetino]

#39 for me, please.

I'm excited about this game, even for $60.

[jboypacman]

Put me down for #30 please.

#30 isn´t available!

[SpiceWare]

SpiceWar? Something going down on Arrakis?

[neotokeo2001]

I'll take whatever number is available.
