Not to mention that it's not even a chess piece. Observation FAIL?!


Guess so, I know that is a checker piece.

Well, that's the problem with e-bay, some items are miss taged to make profit.

I have incorporated an interrobang into this statement in the hope it will catch on.

That would be a sweet deal! But alas, no.

If you can get to the link (at least last time I checked) it claimed it was a wooden checkers piece from 1950s.

Still.... for US $2.00? C'mon! I'd pay US $200 for an 1850s Ivory piece, perhaps.

How do you add the interrobang?

You achieve the interrobang by using the html code '& # 8253 ;' but without the spaces. Then hit save & preview. Only the code will appear in your post. However, hit the edit button, and the symbol will appear in your edit box; now the post can be submitted.

Admittedly a long process for such a small end result. Why don't they make it easier‽

Avatar of littlehotpot

it is a " make your own chess piece" part. you order it as a block and then carve it away into the piece that you want

Avatar of Mainline_Novelty
