Even if so I'm sure they would "pop up" if the price was right, it's just because of the prices (note each auction uses info from a previous auction) that Drash is showing up now.

Is there actually a game out there of which only one single copy exists?

Re: [SWCollect] So obviously Mt. Drash is no longer rare....
Is there really 1000 drash sold? How do we know this? On the other hand, Scott Adams Gold Collector Series were individually numbered and only 1000 copies were ever made (for each computer type??) There are others that probably sold even less than this, but many are not worth collecting...

Re: Re: [SWCollect] So obviously Mt. Drash is no longer rare....
FINALLY!--a clear picture to see what you're buying! I was getting tired of the intentional blurry Drash pics! But my point to this email was that you can actually see the registration number--can anyone else (Tom, Josh) share their numbers with the group, or at least tell us if there is any pattern to the numbers? Perhaps we can glean some info on how many were produced by this number!
