@the-gravedigger saidI grabbed a few very nice but very old wooden chess sets from EBay.
Nothing to brag about but I have never bid for anything on ebay. Bought plenty of new stuff there using the buy now option.
@suzianne saidNever thought to look but I will now.

@a-unique-nickname saidI have about a dozen chess sets. I am a useless player but it doesn't really matter: chess sets are beautiful things to collect. If I had a big house with a room going spare, I'd set them all up, each on its table with low hanging lights above each one. I don't stray too far from Staunton style though. I am nonplussed by novelty sets like Samurai warriors or Napoleonic figures.
Why do you need a few chess sets?
@fmf saidIndeed.
