|
|
| I just got in touch with a guy who knows about these. Besides the Art of the Game CD's, what other CD's were released by Numbers? Just doing some research as I gather info for my upcoming backup unit web site. |

| Well that and the fact that most people who were in the scene when they were popular aren't around anymore. He stopped selling them in 97 or 98 when he went to Malaysia to try to avoid the Feds. I can't remember the exact timeframe, but that sounds about right. |

Again, sorry for playing noob around here, but what do these CDs have that's so special?
Aren't you better set with a simple GoodSnes set?

Did you ask the guy you got them from if it would be okay for you to do that? It was my understanding that he didn't want them distributed or sold.  |

That's another reason why I haven't really looked seriously into distributing them publicly. I had to buy them from the guy I got them from and they were well worth purchasing. |
