Quote from: kyprosHello all:

First of all, thanks for the kudos and concern.  I appreciate the kind words about Wargame Depot.

Secondly, we are still selling games. You can find most of our stock here on BGG under my user ID. After today (when I put in GMT stuff), nearly all of our games will show up for sale here on the Geek.  Here's the URL to my Geekmarket list:

As for the site, yes it is down and down it will stay. After suffering through many issues with the web hosting I decided that now would be a good time to take it down.  There is at least one other retailer who operates only on the Geek and that seems like a good way to go for us as well.

We are still donating a piece of every sale to the Veterans Support Foundation (over $7,000 so far) and now BGG will be getting a piece of every sale as well.  We think that arrangement is better than giving money to the hosting company we were using!


Cheers,
Jason

PS:  We have a couple hundred Osprey books that have no way to be listed on the Geek...if anyone is interested in some of them, just message me directly.  Thanks!
