Non-Collectable Card Games

"in" = is in stock;
"available" = advised available & orderable, but not ordered for shop stock
- leastways, not yet!

N.B: the main "interesting games" wholesaler advised that, with the fall of the ukL from us$2 to ~us$1.50, the cost prices and therefore the ukL rrps of games imported from merkia are rising by ~30% above their pre-November 2008 prices as they re-stock them; this is unavoidable.
some of the new, higher ukL prices have already begun to feed through, so if there are games, sourcebooks, expansions and adventures already in stock (or that were announced as available) prior to November 2008 that you know you want, please don't leave buying them too long, or their prices could easily be (roughly) one third higher than they are now...
i'm guesstimating the likely new rrps, when i sell out of a game or expansion; this sometimes proves to be on the high side, sometimes on the low - i'll correct this, once the re-stock and its invoice arrives. - ppint.

first, a short mystery section:
