Why would you think it's a fake? That version of Ultima was released after Ultima 3, IIRC. It can't be THAT rare... Stuart -Original Message-From: B.L. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2003 6:28 PMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: [SWCollect] ultima 1

I recognize the seller, he's bought from me before, plus he's got a bunch of other good items up. I'd say it's far more likely the shrinkwrap job would be non-original than the box. But this seems like the real deal, it's got the shrink seal on 3 sides, like my sealed Origin Ring Quest.
