In addition to the Charity Auction, this year, courtesy of Drew Shiel, Gaelcon will be running a Bring and Buy stall!
Get rid of your old gaming stuff, make money (and give some to charity)! Bring in old games, parts of games, or anything else game-related you think might sell, to Drew, at the bring-and-buy stand. He’ll set a price, of which you’ll get 80% – the other 20% going into the charity auction fund. Anything not sold must be collected by Monday at 17:30, or it all gets rolled up into one big bag for next year’s auction.
Drew can be contacted at gothwalk@gmail.com for further information.
