Rummy, I know you want me to, like, "nut-up" and open the box, but I'm more concerned about what might be living inside once I've opened it.

It was shipped from California, after all (joke).

Barney-Boondoggle

Well, I'll get up the gumption to do it soon.

The posts were more in response to the guy that said it is a scam.

Barney-Boondoggle

You too Rummy, good to see you.

why the quick trigger?

sheesh, remember that the set is full of politicians.

and, a quick search shows the virus lasts on cardboard for a day. so, open it up and show us!

Barney-Boondoggle

It's the hermetically sealed plastic surfaces inside that is the concern.

Currently it's contained, at least relatively, within these United States.

Depending on where it originated, certain protocols may be required upon package opening.

AlCzervik

perhaps i'm wrong, but i believe you've had the package for about a week? if so, everything should be safe to handle. if you don't think so, you could use the wipes on the board and pieces.

Barney-Boondoggle

Al, if you don't mind, I'll make the field decisions on how to handle my chess set, in this most bizarre time.

I might wipe, I might spray, and I might burn the darn thing in a remote fire pit without me or anyone ever seeing it.

It's my set, I paid for it, and now I'll do with it as I please.

So there.

I have been avidly following this from the beginning.

OMG and Wow!  The dream came true!

Congratulations.  This set looks great.

Barney-Boondoggle

Thanks! It actually looks better than I thought it would. grin.png

Although, for some of the pieces you have to kind of squint to make them look like who they're supposed to be, haha.
