The 7th Annual EndGame Auction is coming your way on Saturday April 24, 2010! Aaron is flying out to MC our yearly extravaganza. The auction includes new and used board games, historical games, card games, and CCGs. Sell your old games! Buy different games! Find nifty out-of-print games you’ve been looking for! We’re accepting submissions from sellers effective immediately.

Info for buyers
Each buyer claims a bid number at the front counter. The auction starts at 11am on the large mezzanine (aka the “minis mezz”). You’ll have the preceding hour (10-11am) to browse the offerings on the small mezzanine (aka the “boardgame mezz”).

During the auction, each time you win an item we’ll give you that item to hang on to. Once you’re ready to settle up, go down to the front counter to pay. You must pay for all your items on the day of the auction. No layaways!

Info for sellers
When your games sell at auction you will receive the gavel price in EndGame store credit. You can sell any game or game piece that isn’t miniatures-wargame-related. Doom, Descent, Heroscape, Space Hulk, and CMGs are all OK. Puzzles, game books (including RPG books), and gaming-related items like dice and battlemats are also acceptable. New, old, or in-between, complete or not, bring it on down.

We’re accepting auction lots from right now until two days before the auction (Thursday April 22). When you bring your games in for the auction, you will be asked to set a starting bid price, and fill out a seller’s form. Download the seller’s form and fill it out before you bring in your games to save yourself some time. The form contains instructions.

Credit can be redeemed on the weekend of the auction for the full value in store merchandise. Alternatively, credit can be redeemed as an EndGame gift card for use at your convenience. All gift card redemptions must be greater than $5.00, and will be charged a 15% handling fee. Auction credit cannot be redeemed for auction merchandise.

Games that fail to sell at the auction will be held by EndGame until May 1st. If unsold games are not picked up by May 1st, they will be considered donations to EndGame, and will be sold, donated, or trashed, as appropriate.

This is one of the year’s biggest store events. Don’t miss out!
