Visor Game Sale

From Keith Tracton

Every summer my distributor wants to clear off its warehouse shelves of
a ton of crap that does not move because it is too expensive. So during
this time they reduce prices to me drastically, and I finally have the
software to get the info they send me into a format I can pass on in a
timely fashion.

I have a .pdf (528k) at:

http://home.earthlink.net/~ktrac/Summer.Sale.brochure.pdf

(for details of individual items, check out
http://www.alliance-games.com as usual and log-in as a guest)

The 19-page .pdf lists items which are all 40% off between July 1st
(i.e. NOW) and August 31st.

(Except Games Workshop items which are only 30% off. Oh and net-cost
items are cost + 20% and cost + 30% respectively for non-GW and GW
items.)

And of course anything that is available on the website but not listed
in the sale catalog is still the usual 20% off. :-D

Its a good time to pick up those items you may have been holding back
on. I am not much of a hard sell but I will say this: last summer when
I tried to get stuff for myself and it was GONE in the first month.
Stores buy up this stuff fast because its costs them a little and they
can sell it for full price. So you may want to order, like, NOW, rather
than later. I'll be doing my usual Monday orders (actually I want to
move that back to over-the-weekend orders via Web, it insures the order
will be FILLED Mondays for Tuesday deliveries).

And shipping to you is still FREE, as usual. ;-) Go figure...

Enjoy! Yours,

keith
