I have an original Gale force nine /gf9 ocean vinyl (?) not paper ocean battle mat to get rid of if anyone wants to make any offers thru 2/14, before I eBay or Geekmarket it.
It's in the original clear plastic tube with end caps, looks like new, no issues with it I can see, it's always been rolled. I probably played a few matches on it back in the day then rolled it back up and forgot about it.
I'd rather try get it to someone who wants it here since this forum has been invaluable over the years. I had a lot of trades with folks here back in the day, +11 positive rating on the traders list.
Anyway, feel free to PM me offers - I don't need any trade offers as I have all the ships and such already. I prefer shipping to folks within the US as I am in Colorado and shipping is already kinda crazy right now at USPS due to COVID, but I'd only charge what it actually costs to ship. I prefer pay via Paypal but will accept money orders thru the mail too (oldschool, I know). No venmo or other such stuff for me.
Welcome back. You have been away for a while (like, four years...) I have seen these maps used in game play. I was always envious. What are you expecting to get for the map? I have no idea what to offer. And I'm in Canada (Land of Ridiculous Shipping Costs)...
Those who don't remember their history are bound to do something or other...

Thanks! I've popped in now and then to pick up the wonderful forumini created decks but otherwise generally lurk without login, now that my trading days are past. My gaming group was very fragmented by Covid, but when we get together nowadays we play things like Conan (Monolith's edition), Nemesis and vintage 80's cheese boardgames, mostly.
I mostly go to www.boardgamegeek.com and their forums anymore, am very active there. It's a great community too.
As to the value, hard to say. Looks like the knockoffs are going for $40usd - $48usd online, and I'm sure they are fine (I used a cloth one myself for a long time back in the day), but if you're a completist or want an original, then idk because eBay doesn't seem to have any right now. Let's just say that I don't expect to pay my mortgage from the sale though, heh. A fair price knowing it is going to a good home is fine.
I'll run to the post office today and see what tubed shipping would be on this beast and post that here later today, so anyone interested wouldn't be surprised by the shipping before they make an offer. Shipping is nuts lately.
