Anyone remember those travel chess sets? The cheap little plastic ones that fold together, and the pieces have magnets on the bottom? I need one for my flight, but I'm having a little trouble finding any. Anyone know where I can get one (in Canada)?

try the radio shack across the street. if not, there is a place on bayview, just south of eglington that sells them. (east side) Can't remember name though.

Also, pretty sure the dollar store has them but the plastic is probably made from the tailings of some gold mine in china....

My wife found me a keychain chess set at a hobby/toy shop. It's in my profile MOF.

Does it have to be a travel set? Might be able to get something for your phone, depending on what kind of phone you have.

RHP should have a depot where we could send other members books, etc at no cost. It would involve some expense, but the sender and reciever could pay a nominal fee.
