Elite Elite: *Read* autographed books? That, dear sir, is sacrilege! You're supposed to look at the signature and then keep it in the cover on the shelf in pristine condition, like a real collector; ;)
Just teasing you; if you want to read your (undoubtedly soon-do-be fairly valuable) signed novels, I leave that to you. I wouldn't, but it's not my choice, eh? ;)


Well, I haven't read the DA books before, so I'd like to. However, I do plan to try and keep them in as good a condition as possible. Being signed they could be worth some money some day down the road.

I don't have a twitter account and didn't sign up either....lol.

I only had the measly 9000 too, but I am glad I blew my wad earlier. I would be sniffling a bit now. A little tear would be glistening on my cheek. I can't believe how many tokens the bidder have right now.

I knew I didn't have enough for any of the big prizes, but I have my posters. Whoo! I am happy!


Yeah same here. The following day after I won my DA books, I wondered if I should've held off because on Friday I had enough tokens to compete with those guys who kept getting the lit packs. But they just went even higher in price. No way I would have got one of those. I'm glad I got my signed books though. Can't wait for them to get here so I can read them.


That is a nice prize! Congrats. And, signed, too!

I am already looking at poster frames, so I can frame Thane and put him on my wall. I really wish Alistair had a poster. I wonder why they picked Sten instead.....lol. It will be fun to see what I end up with. I couldn't quite see what posters were in the pack. It will be a surprise. Whoo!


Did you win the pack with both ME2 & DA posters? If so I believe you get all of the posters that are available from the Bioware store.

Yup. But, I didn't see an Alistair in the store. Of course, the store kept crashing on me, so it was hard to keep looking....lol.

As patty said earlier, you may have just scared away the other bidders.  :devil:


well maybe they remembered a nugget of age old wisdom....

"Let the wookiee win"

I think I remember hearing that somewhere... Or maybe it was just a wookie growl. *shrug* Either way! lol

I sense a disturbance in the force.....there is an evil lurking in the shadows..... why do I suspect a sniper hiding on this one?


Hope it isn't higher than what I have left to bid! lol

Alright, I'm done.

This whole "thing" has caused me too much frustration and loss of sleep that it's ridiculous. It was fun chatting with everyone in the same boat as I and even the other folks who posted here as well :P And congrats to all the winners in the thread. I think it's time I returned back to my lurking hole.

Ta-ta!

Yes. That is where it was from. It was my favorite line is Star Wars.
Congratulations, by the way, Mr. Wookie! I just looked at the auction results. Nice win!

If  you can read without destroying your book you'll be fine, although they'll only become really valuable if Gaider writes some amazing book that makes #10 or above on NYT best seller list.

Sadly there is no Alistair poster. (Least not that I saw when I looked at the store) For DA there is only Sten, Leliana, and Morrigan.

The posters are all derived from the game's promotional material. Alistair was not a part of Dragon Age: Origins promotional material. Sten, Leliana, and Morrigan all were, per the Sacred Ashes trailer.

With just shy of 8500 and the ref links not working, I think my chances of winning are nil, but I'll be hanging around anyway for a while, just in case.



Wish me luck on getting anything!

Same, that's the whole point of a book.
